When you're breaking contact, put a mark on the map at the last known location. When you run back, what, 30 minutes(?), later you'll know the target is within about 10nmi of that last location. You won't hav to look far.

when it comes time to do this, all there ever is are radar contacts, no sonar at all. which makes me think the sub is surfaced, but i dont see it anywhere on the nav. screen.

You can get HF sonar contacts by driving in range of the target, there are limitations by elevation and bearing depending on platform. MF sonar you control from ship control. Check the manual for limitations on both types of sonar.

the eq/ir image display doesnt seem to work properly. i can try and click/drag the display, but it doesnt scroll right, even if i dont have the contact locked onscreen.

Can't help you, mine worked fine...

how much of a factor is the autocrew settings in options? say you set everything to advanced. how then would you go about playing this and be effective?
how do you control everything manually? it isnt really described in the pdf manual. all you can really seem to control is the camera, the speed, and the course of the unmanned unit.
sure you can ping away using active sonar on a few of the models, but outside of that..it just seems like theres not much else one can do.

My best guess is that the autocrew settings are a holdover from the DW interface. I don't think you have the ability to manually do anything, really. Other than pinging.
