Manual Targeting - Periscope Bearing

[DrBeast]

1600x1200 is a 4:3 resolution, so I think you should be fine. Try it out for yourself though, it's easy to install and remove if it doesn't work I myself run the game at 1024x768 because my machine is more fit to be an espresso machine than a personal computer, and it can't cope with anything higher :p

Ok will try it, thanks.

...the only adjustment you need to make is for bearing and distance.

Again, assuming all your targets are moving along the same course and at the same speed. Keep in mind, though, that (sometimes) an input from the stadimeter will also change AOB ... ergo, memorize the target heading in case you need to readjust the setting.

And as Werner shows, you can dispense with AoB entirely and just set the course of the target on the outside scale on the left side gauge. It isn't a direct setting so there is a little trial and terror, but it's precise and eliminates the step of measuring the AoB if you need the time!

I'm visualizing all the people slapping themselves on the side of the head saying, "What language are they speaking?" We might be getting too technical, but submarines are technical subjects.

Hey, after all my preaching about the O'Kane technique, I just sank a loaded tanker using conventional TDC/PK technique using my spotter for speed and course estimate! It was a blast (literally)!
