Ah I see what ye mean now. Yes that would be a nice feature. Also if we could do the same with the Perisopes - keep track with the target would be nice.

Yes, that sounds great too! Poor TDW we have endless lists of wants!



Here unfortunately is a small problem...

V2.0.0 SH3 style UI
Don't know quite how this happened but I loaded a previously saved historical mission game, dragged the TAI and this happened (see below). It looks like the map background somehow became draggable. Haven't been able to reproduce yet but thought I'd let you know about it.

Dear Lord Wraith:

Any chance of a grid chart type of thing?

that feature already exists, it's called follow target. It's available in the order category bar on, hmm, can't remember which officers (WEPS is one and I think watch officer is the other)

so basically as I have it now except replace white with desaturated yellow....that's doable.

UPDATE... Just realised that this happened after I paused the game alt-tabbed out for a while then came back in. Maybe the game loses focus a little during such circumstances? When I returned the whole chart seemed to be below the sub & I could see a straight edge to the land.The chart was draggable as above. Probably not a problem with your mod but with the game itself. Alt tabbing is probably not recommended. Anyway it is fixed by a quick maximise/minimize of the chart If anyone runs into a similar situation.

Wow, you are up in the mountains. Was your boat tacked or wheeled?
Amphibious Assault in progress! Maybe the Flak Gunners can hit stationary target "maybe".

Hush, hush technology... my U-boat had a couple of V2s welded on port & stbd! Didn't quite make it to our moonbase though!

I tried to scan the KM chart that came with AOTD, but it would have to be pretty big (massive) to see any detail in it and the detail that is on it is unfortunately not that great. You can actually see one on the navigators desk in the game at the moment. I suspect even the devs scanned the AOTD one!

UPDATE
Here's a quick & dirty scan just of the UK and this was at 300dpi imagine the size it would have to be to cover everything in any detail...

I think the AOTD map is a collectors item nowadays!
