An excellent suggestion! One that I will start following for the very reasons you mentioned

28. Make a habit of writing down times of contacts. This way you can often calculate the speed of a ship by measuring the distance it has traveled while you have tracked it. Especially useful when hunting hydrophone contacts in < 1 km visibility conditions (no time to measure speed when you finally get visual contact).

I wish the program did this automatically. When I use the "mark" function, not only should it put down an "x" and a mark number, it should also automatically record the time. Still have a hard time believing this was not incorporated in the game. It also would be nice if we could change the label from "mark 1" to something we choose.
But I would settle for just having the time recorded with every mark. I can not believe in real life any navigator would make any "mark" without recording the time.
