Here's basically how you're probably plotting your course right?



That's not good enough, notice the yellow mission objective icon is still under Kiel. So you plot a bit more...



Well, surely that's "to Kiel" right, I mean it's right next to the word! Nope.. still not enough, plot more...



That's basically how far into Kiel harbor you need to plot to complete the objective that unlocks the TC controls for you. Plot to there, then it'll open up the missing UI elements.
Excellent!

I'll give this a shot.

Thanks!
