How to manually input range?

[klh]

Thanks for the replies. I really appreciate any help with this.

Allow me to clarify...

You can always lock the ship you want

Fincuan, what I'm trying to do is set a range when I can't lock onto a ship (for example, I'm too far away or the sea state is too high). I agree and use your approach to arbitrarily set a range by moving the stadimeter, but this won't work if I can't lock onto a target.

When you pop up the range portion of the TDC, on the right hand dial there is a clear plastic triangle that has the crosshair on it. You can grab that and manually move it to the range you want. It looks like you can go to 1300 yards but it will only move to 1100.

RR, I think you're having the same problem because what you're doing is moving the mast height setting, which rotates the range dial, but I'd like to see screenshots to be sure. What I want to do is grap the range dial myself and rotate it to any range (beyond 1100) (Think SH3 TDC, which allows me to set a range manually). And I'm not shooting from that distance, just setting up my attack. The advantage to me would be I could go deep for a while, then know when to surface because the PK is giving me updates. Does that make any sense?

Thanks again, keep the ideas coming.
