WeaponOfficer: Choose Torpedo Target ?

h.sie · 05-31-09, 06:50 AM

Hello people,

if I use "Weapon Officer / Choose Torpedo Target / Mark Nearest Merchant", I only hear "Yes sir, marking nearest merchant", but as far as I can see, nothing else happens. What goes wrong?

Thankx

I would like to know the answer also. I have never used that functionality because I never understood what it does.

Is this something that only works with auto targeting?

Not positive but believe it is the same as telling your deck crew which ship to target when WO fire at will. Only it designates the torpedo target in the UZO.

Hi Laufen,

I would think the same as you, but nothing happens when I choose this command. I would expect, that e.g. the nearest mechant will be marked with this little coulored triangle, but nothing happens. not in auto-targeting and not in manual targeting.

I gave up on the WO help ... didn't make sense

oh, I found out, that the watch officer also has a similar command which does not work. does it work for others? first I thought it came with gwx3, but it does not work with stock sh3 also.

I've never seen it work, too.
