I never used the external cam and haven't, done so except for the first couple of months that i had SH3, which is many years ago now or seems like it. It just was too easy to evade Destroyers DC attacks and i could not resist looking to see what was happening up top. So after first 2 months i stopped using it.

I am currently learning to do manual TDC all the time so Weaps officer still on, but not for long hopefully.

Question for you all though. :hmm: If i turn off map updates do the BDU still contact me about Convoys and Task Forces?? If so map updates are getting turned off as well, since IMHO, Subs did get information of Convoy and task force movements if they got spotted by other subs or friendly aircraft. So i had left this option on as in my opinion it was realistic.

But if we still get Convoy and Task forces updates without getting told about every individual ship with it turned off, then off it goes, as the Sonar info on the map is something i can live without as that's what the Hydrophone station is for
