There is nothing wrong with your result. The example is somehow in error. Maybe made before a bug was fixed.

The example shows an approaching target. But like your results, it is infact a receding target. Bearing differences of 7 between B1 and B2, and total bearing difference B3-B1 of 13 indicate an AOB of 117 at B1 and 130 at B3. Bearings are contracting, meaning it is going to the horizon. Your earned your dolphins.

When I click on the thumbnails it opens as a new tab in my browser showing the thumbnail again. When I close it, the original tab shows your images in a larger, properly readable preview screen. (in Chrome)

On the Hydrophone tool, thank you. I thought my result made sense. Reducing bearing change means receding target.

On the posting of images, I will move that discussion to Comments to SUBSIM Review which is the closest area to forum help topics I can find.

correct, and im too lazy to update the screenshot

Added a note under the hydrophone screenshot to not use it as an example.

version 2.3.4 was uploaded

Small fix for the settings dialog box. It was not reading the saved value for OwnShip default speed, and was always setting the control to the default value of 3.

Great all-in-one application, thank you for creating it.
Would it be possible to let the user enter custom zoom levels for the periscope solver?

Is there a way to snap the second pointer (attack disc backside) to a certain value (57.3 seconds) for navigation turn radius?

On my physical disk I just made a marker with my pen. I would advise against making a snap-lock point as that might disrupt any calculations when you are not needing that specific point. It could result in incorrect calculations involving time because of the snap.

Instead I would suggest to change the template to emphasize that point. Useful points are imho: 180/pi seconds (57.3 on the orange Zeit disk; or 9m33s on the minute scale) Align distance in the turn on the distance scale to the angle turn shown as seconds (not minutes!). So a full 360 degrees turn is 36(0) seconds marker or the white 6th minute marker. Then the 180/pi marker points to the radius on the distance scale. Check 6283m to 36(0) seconds and 1000m as radius at 57.3 marker.

Similarly as I suggested OneLifeCrissis back in the day for the speed calculation and zoom-factor correction magic-number on the RAOBF)
Also, there is already a Pi marker at 3140m on the distance scale, and 3.14knots on the speed scale. I haven't found a good use in calculations for those though.
