1) You can just slide it off the screen.

1a) Your going to want that huge compass, makes it easy to get set your course on t he first try, instead of multiple clicks in the crap shoot that is your small compass.

2) You have to visually identify the ship. See the numerous threads on neutral ships for help with this.

2a) You mean on the map? The compass tells you your direction, and for realism, the map doesnt show ship direction, but there are mods to re-enable it.

3) Realism. You'll get used to it. In my experience, I've found the free cam always points north, and if you know your course, you can tell relative bearings to ships.

4) Again, Realism. These are HUGE tubes filled with explosives. They just didnt slam them in there. It was such a long procedure, they rarely reloaded while under fire, as a dropped torpedo could be a bad thing.
