Good point. When I heard that ping I had concerns about whether it would be dubious to use with enemy vessels around.

I'm sure Sub Command, the last subsim I actually enjoyed, had water depth information tied to the cursor position. I sure wish Sonalysts were still in the business of creating naval sim games
