Yeah that is a little odd that the night sight goes out that far, but it may be there for cases where you have other illumination (flares, fire, etc) or maybe low light, but not totally dark conditions.

You can also fire at muzzle flashes way in the distance, though I've only done that with HE at night against recoiless rifles/infantry.

I think Ryujin is right. That 3000 m of the night sight are for low light conditions and illumination from flares. Or maybe it is there just for completeness.

As for range estimation with TPN-1-41-11, it has only one known subtension - 8 mils between the left or right dash and top of the triangle (see the respective screenshot from my tut: http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3560927/Range_determination_using_the_.html#Post3560927). Thus, you can estimate the range by knowing the length or width of the target (see the second table from the same tut).

Tables tables everywhere... Who said being a tank commander was easy?

Thanks for all your work on this krabb - invaluable!

I can't see the screenshots of this Quick Start tutorial...

Anybody else with the same problem?

I'm sorry, my image hosting is down. I'll upload images (from backup, so a bit outdated) to another hosting tomorrow or the day after.

Ok, I uploaded images to another hosting.

Nice one Krabb!

Thanks Krabb.

I was giving up on this game until your tute removed "the fog of war"

Thanks Krabb.

Where do i find them to play them

(I haven't yet figured out controls on how to move the tank LOL)

Thank you very much, Krabb. It works now !!

You are welcome!

Here is how to install patches and mods: http://graviteam-games.goodluckwith.us/eng/help-2/. There are only few mods so far: my Weapon Mod (though I myself don't use it ), FlashBurn's Missions and Sound Mod.
