If you have been playing with Real Navigation for awhile you take it for granted how it works.

For the newcomer this can be quite daunting not being able to see your U-boat moving across the map and always knowing where it is.

You definitely need to have the map contacts showing to begin with.

As already discussed certain positions are automatically plotted for you.

You can still calculate a positional fix at any time using the Navigator.

You can always use the last fix icon to show the last calculated fix.

Make sure you use the Large Equatool tool to plot your course.

The draggable compass on the side is also a useful tool for plotting the targets course from a hydrophone bearing etc.

Watch Shaefers's videos this is the easiest and probably the best way to learn how to use Real Navigation especially as he is using TWOS.

To get the best out of SH5 you need to use Real Navigation but that depends on the individuals expectation as to how they want to play the game.

After all it is what is a game, although to some of us it is a bit more than that.

TWOS is a major step forward in the way that it has been designed to work, and for some that maybe a step to many.
