when you are firing blind,are you talking about
: uboats, or fleet boats, or both?
i'm guessing you mean fleet boats when they are submerged,and you arent using the periscope maybe?
i am however,still tryin to figure this out.........
w/ uboats, wherever the gyroangle number (underneath the notepad) is where the shot will go?
should i not even touch the notepad? i too am trying for 90 degree shots,and i still miss most of the time,even though i'm within 1000 meters to target's location.
thank goodness i'm decent with the deckgun.
here's what i've been doing so you can pin-point my error for me...
basically, all i'm using the notepad for is to get a range,but NOT clicking the check-mark.
could i just measure the distance via the nav map,and just manually enter the data on the attack map range dial? do i have to "lead" the target if it is an exceptional distance away?
i'm getting target's speed by using the map tools, and timing (w/stopwatch) how long they travel in 3:15 seconds,then measuring the distance,and dividing it by 10 get speed in knots.
then i'm manually entering the speed,range,and bearing/a.o.b. data into the attack map manual controls. adjusting torpedo settings according to the target. is that how it's done? am i close?
torpedo speed...if they are electric,and therefore slow, do i need to "lead" the target to compensate for it?
i know you tried to put it into steps for me. i'm hoping you can help me out a bit more.
are you saying if the gyroangle is 0 you dont have to worry about the stadiometer or the target's range?
what about the recognition manual? is this useless too?
what torps do you prefer to use? i think i like the t 1's the best. set them for fast or medium.
out of curiosity...what exactly is this GWX4 in your sig? its a new one for me....im guessing it's bad?
i think that covers everything i wanted to ask... (at least all i can think of for now)
thanks again. 'preciate it
