*How and When should I use RADAR, as I never seem to get any contacts on it?
H.sie's mod takes care of radio message problems:

Stiebler's addon takes care of time compression problems:

SH3Commander has an option to take micromanaging crew members off. Choose No fatigue option.

Radar is almost useless in stock and GWX since it's kind of short range. Stiebler's addon has an option to reduce your visibility in night time. In bad visibility the radar is worth having. It's difficult to use so better try it first in good visibility with a neutral or friendly ship in your sights. When you know how to use it gives you the bearing and range of ship. That makes you able to plot it's course and speed in low visibility and if you don't have a zigzagging mod on you can even shoot without seeing the ship.
