I have an idea for you. works BETTER than radar.

by now, you should have gotten some sailors that possess "special abilities".

one of the special abilities is called: "Perfect Pitch". find your latest save game (ONLY IN PORT!), make a copy of it, then edit the file called "ActiveUserPlayerUnits.upc" with a good text editor (like notepad ++)

look at your crew names, and pick one you like that is in your conning tower.

search on his name in the file I noted above.

when you find it, go to where it lists his special abilities, and use these lines instead of what is there:

SpecialAbilities=Ability-Active-Perfect-Pitch
SpecialAbilityTimers=10801

tada.

now, when you REALLY want to know exactly where everyone is within 50 miles of you, hit that ability key (you will find it listed in yellow under the "special abilities" tab (looks like a sailor's cameo). It lasts for 30 minutes, and eventually recharges after a few hours.

it's like cheating, but not. it's like you extended your visual range by double, and are omniscient too.
