Now, how much do I tell Joe to move over to get Patrick back in my direct line of sight?" Hey, I'm tryin'!
So, back to my previous example, let's say I move my transit 2 feet to my right and re-sight it in to Joe (B). Now I have direct line of sight to Joe, but I can't see Patrick (C) anymore and he can't move. Patrick wants to be back in the picture between Joe and I. Don't I just tell Joe to move 2 feet to his right as well? Is it that simple?
