New UI TDC question

Viking_1957 · 08-24-19, 02:42 PM

So I installed DarkWraith's TDC mod and I am running with TDCAllDials. But I want to retain the original SH5 TDC display on my map (with the numbers 1,2,3) for a quick target estimate. Do I have to use the MinimalDials setup to do this or is there a way to change the config file to get them back?
thanks!!

Hi V
The 1-2-3 circles is the stock auto targeting method.
The dials have no function as explained in picture 10 of the tutorial.
Auto TDC Targeting Without Using 3 Circles > Pictorial

This setup is all you need for Auto TDC.

As you are using TDW's NewUi you can also install the Options File Editor Viewer which comes with the mod.

thanks, I'll have a look at the link and images. I also tried issuing orders to the exec (I assume he is) and I must not have followed the right order. Now I set Battle Stations, sight the target and order it followed. Then he seems to be plotting the solution because the TDC gauges go active including a range calculation. Then I can issue the FIRE command and the range and speed are accurately calculated.
