Navigation is to accurate
I noticed that you are able to navigate with pin point accuracy. There are no roads, no street signs, no paths to follow at sea. There is no GPS in place during this time period. In reality ships could be several miles off course after crossing the pacific but in game, navigation is almost perfect. Tracking course, speed and Ocean currents on the Navigation Charts give a close estimate to actual position (within a several miles). Ships most likely also had a Sextant, Clock and Compass (Also not to accurate) but the best way to get a fix on their current location was to surface and use the radio directional antenna to triangulate their position from known, fixed point location radio stations. Even using the directional antenna, navigation could be off by a few miles.
Is there any way to do something about Navigation accuracy in game?
