This is the mission where you practice sinking ships with torpedoes. I have map contacts enabled, so I am chasing a small square on the Nav Map. The targets in the sub school mission display their course, and update it when the target changes direction. Let's say that a target shows a course of, say, 75 degrees. I plot the course. The target veers from the course gradually as observed on the Nav Map, but the target still shows 75 degrees on the map contact display. I assume if the contact shows 75 degrees, it is on that course. But it isn't according to the compass tool. What is going on? It has been making the submarine school course difficult to say the least.
