Hi,

maybe someone can help me out on this one:

In SH3 the ownship symbol is a circle, with a tail.

In Dangerous Waters the ownship symbol is a circle with a line in the dirction of the course. The line's length shows the current speed of the ship/boat.

Now I am wondering: Did the navigation map's symbols change after World War 2 or is Silent Hunter just wrong? Or did the germans use a different symbol?

Any help appreciated!
