Estimated time to torpedo impact

caodwolf · 11-30-07, 11:08 AM

Guys, in the prior Silent Hunter series there was a funtion of estimating the time to torpedo impact dependent of course on target range and torpedo speed. I can't seem to find this in Silent Hunter IV. Is this feature provided and if yes is there a trick to access this ?

Thanks...Dave

Not sure what you are asking. If you dial in the solution on the TDC and fire, the watch will pop up. On that watch it will have a red hand which indicates when the point of impact should happen.

That is what I was thinking as well Hawk

Sometimes the red hand seems not to appear. You can calculate it yourself I guess by dividing range by speed.

If you go into your attack map it will show the time to impact with your current firing solution, I think.
