Default Range and speed determination

Hi all.

In the OLC and MaGui interface, there are some rings on the periscope for determining range and speed. I'm not sure I'm using those correctly (due to too many torp misses) and I haven't been able to find a tutorial for them using "search."

Can someone point me to an explanation of those "rings."

Thanks!!

The MaGUI mod has documentation inside the download on how to use it specifically. It uses specific marks on the wheel to read off the range and speed.

For the OLC mod, it works similarly, but OLC explained it in a video tutorial. You'll have to be patient for a while still. I'm currently uploading it to my Gamefront account. (see link below this)

Thanks Pisces!

I read the MaGui documents. They dealt with the "attack discs." I'm wondering about the "steel" looking discs that are actually located at the top of the periscope view. I'll watch these tutorial vids.

THANKS for the link AND the upload.

Pisces, THANKS!!

That vid tutorial was IT. That's what I needed. Thanks again so much!

Hopefully my accuracy will improve greatly. God knows it needs to!
