When I play, I play with map contacts sort of on.

At low zoom levels, I have the map contacts on, so I can see what is where. At higher level zoom, the map contacts are gone, so I can't use the map to get impossibly accurate speed/range/course information. I gather information at long range with the radar, and use the periscope to make observations closer in. Once I enter the target into the TDC, I watch the prediction compared to the actual observation, and refine my data.
