1) Remove sub marker by editing these two dds files.

\data\Menu\Gui\Units\

UnitSub.dds
UnitSubL.dds

Make each file a blank by select all in dds editor and delete. Then save file.

2) Your sub will no longer be marked except when you zoom in for an attack. But you have to know where your sub is to do so. To get a nav fix simple place your mouse pointer on the chart and Ctr+left click. The chart will move to place the sub at pointer. You can then pencil X the spot or use a ruler to set the next way point.

3) In my case, pictured above, I marked it with the ruler and plotted a course for 100.

4) I usually take nav reading close to the hour and use the compass tool to time stamp. See how I match my hour to my watch.

5) Use nomograph on right hand of chart to determine distance/time travel with current speed.

6) Watch for thin water!
