Default OCL Ubermod

Hi Everyone,
Decided to try the OCL Ubermod and found it quite good, certainly different visually, but could not find a range dial or indicater after locking on, so reluctantly removed parts 2 & 3. have I missed something?

You have to click the bottom part of the wheel that's exposed at the top of the periscope.

There's no range indicator. The GUI is designed for manual tagretting. The video tutorials on my FF page show how to use the Range/AOB Finder.

Default OLC Range

Hi,
Sorry, clicking on the wheel does nothing, but that is not surprising, since the author of the program says it's desiged for manual targetting. Guess I'll have to have a go at it.

The video tutorials also explain when and why clicking on that ring does nothing.

It' like manual targetting but much more advanced, you wouldn't understand it.

Oh, that's easy.
tag is german and means day and retten is german too and means to save.
And all together "den Tag retten" means something like "you made my day" in english.
So there you go

You mean we are supposed to sink ships in this game?

Geez...I think I will try that for a while...it was getting boring running around the oceans looking for icebergs and dolphins all of the time...
