Default Help!

Ive been following one of the guides on this forum for modding, and it was all finally going great. Until i moved the submarine out of the pen and went to add in new waypoints.

The icon showing my submarines position is MISSING!

Can someone tell me what mod would remove the black circle with a 'tail' icon of my submarine from the map?

Maybe it's "Real Navigation"? More than nothing.

Dumb question, but how do you navigate without it? If this is intended by the mod, how do you get around without any way to know where you are?

Did you follow the instructions on installing ? After it is installed properly , when you first load a save there will be a cross that is put on the navmap to show your position . Simply use the compass on the nav map by clicking on the heading bar to bring the navigation compass up (red square) to see which way you want to go and click on the compass to go in that direction . You know how to make the navigation compass pop up ? After that you can click on the officer icon that is found on the bottom panel to give you a dead reckoning that takes a few minutes that is fairly accurate or a celestial navigation that is acurate and takes about 45 minutes . The nav officer can only give dead reckonings in bad weather and you must wait for good weather to get a celestial reading . Or you can use the automation panel if you have downloaded Trevallys automated scripts and the nav officer will give you the marks on the nav map every 2 hours .
