Im assuming the convoy was moving at a very sharp angle so the best you can do in that situation is have the 2nd line intersect at the closest possible point to the middle of the distance number (at sharp angles the line you draw will intersect the 2nd line above the distance number) you're aiming to get equal distance each side of the 2nd observation line.

@@ezgameruk5236 The proper way to geometrically draw this is to: 1: draw arbitrary line across 3 bearings. 2: place cross on intersection with bearing 1 2: place cross on intersection with bearing 2. Start circle on the 2nd bearing cross, radius along the line, ends at intersection cross on bearing 1. 3: Put 2 crosses on bearing 1 far apart. Align the protractor to bearing 1 between those crosses with snap-to function. 4: place cross on intersection of the arbitrary line and the circle side near bearing 3 (so opposite to radius vector). 5: start a line from that cross, to 0 degrees on the rotated protractor, and another to 180 of the rotated protractor. This makes a line parallel to bearing 1. 6: Place a cross where this line (parallel to bearing 1) and bearing 3 intersect. 7: Draw a line from the last intersection (in 6), across the center of the circle, over to bearing 1. This is now the constructed target course. More work, but less eye-balling and more accurate.

@@Valenorious i appreciate the info, i wasnt happy with the quality of my vid anyway so i'll take this on board if i re-do the vid

@@ezgameruk5236 I'll look forward to the vid if you do. One little tweak in the steps: Step 5 needs only one of the 2 lines, whichever is going to intersect bearing 3.

@@Valenorious I'd also very much look forward to an update covering this method. I'm afraid I can't quite comprehend it from the step by step you gave, but then again a good chunk of my mathematical foundations are missing. When you say an arbitrary line do you simply mean a line drawn anywhere across all 3 bearings? And while it's a lot of work, I don't suppose you'd be willing to provide an image based tutorial? Thanks :)

The end was just fun on my part... I disagree just depends on how long youve got to move... No you dont neeeed to be stopped but if youre not stopped you do need an experienced crew, it would be impossible to do alone while moving, as you cant reset the odometer, from the radio room and listen to the hydro properly at the same time

@@ezgameruk5236 2nd point: Sure you did get an angle between the 4th bearings. But look at how narrow that is. Remember you have inaccuracy in measuring at the hydrophone station and when drawing it in on the map. Just a halve of a degree off and the intersections are kilometers off, maybe even 10s of km. By going parallel on the surface you'll have the most relative motion to separate the lines and still put you in a good spot for further action. But yeah, playing this game alone is quite hard. You need to be pretty good drilled to pull it off alone.

At what time in the video are you referring to?

6:40

10 th in the middle ?

@@Maxtorym when plotting that line we are getting the heading (notice heading and not location) of the convoy we have observed. Because we used timed intervals between listening to the hydrophone/ plotting it on the map each time (assuming that the convoy is travelling at an average speed that doesnt change) we know that the distance traveled between each reading is equal, therefore we must make sure that the distance number (in this case 320 something meteres at around 6:40) underneath the line we are plotting intersects the 2nd line on the tens number (of a 3 figure number) because that way we are as close to getting an equal distance on either side of that line as possible while eyeballing it. Once you plot that line on the 3rd line you now have the heading of the convoy because we also know that it is going in the direction of the smaller angle (of the angles between line 1 and 2 and between 2 and 3 if they are the same then the convoy is travelling at a 90 degree angle to you and in the direction of the observations. Yes im aware that all sounds very confusing but i dont know how else to explain it... i hope that helps?

@@ezgameruk5236 oke will try this out tonnight. And when line 2 3 is wider then 1 2 the course is comming to the sub right?

Im confused did you not watch the video? I clearly found the convoy?

Not rlly so clearly. You stated that it not end with a boom so you stuck another video there

@@springman22 the video shows that i found the convoy, but hitting a target in that convoy is a lot harder with only one crew member however the game has since been updated i believe to have a ui that makes it easier for single players

not sure what this means but im hoping its positive.. so thanks! ^_^

I actually did go to college to re-do english... i also dropped out because i consistently felt humiliated by the teacher because I was both awful at english and the only student willing to raise their hand and engage with the teacher. So thank you for your, shit, negative comment.

@@ezgameruk5236 It was not Negative, it was construtive. I didn't said that it was bad, I said Improve. The tutorial is good, but it's hard to follow your instructions when there is no punctuation.

@@brunoks6951 unfortunately i just don't have time to update this 😕

@@ezgameruk5236 No problem. Thanks for the guide

Or you could multi play cooperative and do a simple role. That's what I do! 😋

Did you not know it was a simulation game when you bought it??? Also while the thing mentioned in the video are something new to remember, none of the actions seem particularly complicated.

Nah they're not particularly complicated, but it was definately overwhelming learning the process in the beginning, its like anything else... 'practice makes perfect'
