err is there a way to find out what day it is in mission.
Lets say you bump into a contact and would like to log the date and time before attacking.

Hello,

If you are talking about what day of the week it is-no.:salute:

However that doesn't stop you from calling the day you leave port "Tuesday" and start from there.

No one wants to be ordered to leave port on Friday the 13th.

Put your mouse's cursor on the time (bottom right corner).

Adding to the 2 posts above.

What you can do, if only for immersion, is to google which day of the week each date in the game is. Print out a calendar if you want, from 1939 to 1945. Then you will have the actual days of the week but again, the game does not give you that info. D.I.Y is the order of the day.

D.I.Y. = Do It Yourself :) If the game doesn't do it for us, then we will have to do it ourselves.

Well, your log starts on tuesday - leaving the port - and you write down several times a day the important stuff like daytime, position, weather, heading, sightings, major events - and once a day distance sailed surfaced, distance sailed submerged, fuel state, torpedos left, ammunition left - plus important happenings aboard and thoughts of yourself considering your task.

And the next day you simply add one weekday as usual - wednesday in our case.

:O:
