and i cant ping warship every few minutes, i guess i can get detected. if its marchant then yes.

If you're playing without any map contacts at all and aren't in a situation where you can ping your target, you're either going to have to estimate the range based on radar readings on the A-scope (I also believe there's a mod out there that will let the radar report ranges) or you're going to have to close to visual range and manually get range reports from the stadimeter. Just check the bearing of the target on your radar/periscope, note its estimated distance (either on the A-scope or on the TDC after getting a stadimeter reading), go to your map, and put a mark at the correct range on the correct bearing. There may be a better way of doing things, but this is how I would do it.
If you use this method, you're going to have to make a lot of marks before you can get an accurate course estimation. If you're chasing a task force like I was in the video, you'd probably end up sitting well off of its course while making your readings, letting it pass you by, then doing an end-around to get in front of it again and make your attack.
