Also if you needed to know this,the angle on bow is the direction your UBoat is from your ENEMY's observation point.

I THINK you are stuck with the watch officer problem,as I too sometimes get annoyed at having to place him at his post all the time,other than that the 'main' watch attend to their posts.

You get no (someone correct me if I am wrong) renown for making contact with the enemy,only by sinking them do you earn recognition.Also,if you are playing the stock game you will get a small (again,correct me if I am wrong) renown bonus for reaching your patrol grid and returning home,but in the major expansion pack (I heartily recommend you upgrade to this) GWX3 they removed the renown for reaching your patrol grid,and thats a good thing.

Good hunting.

Just realized something....if the bearing is as you say in comparison to my sub, than by looking at the picture above, how is that angle 346.....shouldnt it be something like cca 25 °......or am I missing something?
