Hitman's GUI
 
Always been a fan of this gui especially the plotting triangle. However also have always had a problem with it when tracking a convoy.
You make a plot every five (or whatever) minutes but to do so requires a bearing and range from your watch officer.
Of course he only gives such info. about the nearest target, which can change for various non-player caused reasons over the course of making the plots.
This can be a real pita at times. Anyone else consider this a problem ?

It is absolutely yeah. If I do use the plotter, I’ve taken to eyeballing range myself, like in SH5, based on if the plotted ship appears to get a little closer or further away. Works best at absolute max range at which you can see the target, makes it easier to do this.
