Hmmmm, my bridge compass works just fine, I just cant read the numbers at the top of it because of the angle I have to look at it from.(and also because it is so small) If it were tilted toward me more I could, or if I could move forward a tad more I could look down at it more. But at the angle I have to look at it from the center bearing dial hides the numbers at the top.
the one down inside the conning tower works too, but it's needle is at the bottom, not at the top where it should be. As is the same with the one in the control room.
the only compass that has the needle at the top is at the sonar room. All others have it at the bottom. Now I can still tell what our heading is, it's just easier if the needle were at the top.
This is on the VIIA of course as I haven't been in the VIIB or C yet.
