@MDV_4life: Both RFB and TMO eliminate all the unrealistic things that wouldn't appear by magic on a tracking plot: the ship silhouettes, velocity vectors, impact points, etc. You don't need them. You can supply the information yourself like the real plotting crews had to.
The alternative would to be turn map updates off. I find that much more unrealistic, because you a are supposed to be the captain, not the gargage man. The crew takes out the garbage and makes the plot. You interpret it and gather information for it as a captain would really do.
It can still be argued that you have a bit too much information, but with the limitations of the game engine, it's pretty darn good. It can never be perfect so why sweat it?
