I've not played for a long time and I seem to have misplaced my notes on how to get a "rough" indication of the targets ship it's heading, that I can plot on the map.

Did a couple of searches, but I keep tripping over guides/tutorials that involve using sound contact bearing and range. If I'm not mistaken, there was no option to accurately determin range at that time, could be mistaken, but my blurry memory recalls I only had the sound contact bearing to work with and my map tools and stopwatch.

I believe there is a more advance way to get a very pinpoint accurate course of the target ship, but this involved some fancy math and a good amount of map drawing, I don't believe I used that and used a more simpler cruder version. Any one able to guide me to a tutorial that uses hydrophone only and doesn't make use of range?
