Well...here goes
Neither of the former posters indicated if they are using any mods. If not...do so. The game is 10x better. I will list my mods at the end of this advice.
On my screen, with mods, I get a marker with a tail indicating course direction. In text is the details of speed and course, as in slow, course ESE. (East SouthEast)
I can use the ruler from my present location, (estimated as I use real navigation mod), to measure the distance from my sub to an intercept line. That line is drawn, again with the ruler, from their location along their course path.
The measurement tells me the distance for calculating how long it would take me to get to the intercept point. Don't forget speed is in knots and map measurement is in km. (1 nautical mile = about 2 km)
Knowing their posted speed I can calculate approximately when they will get to the intercept area. (slow=5 knots, medium about 9, fast = about 15)
My mods list follows: ( I don't use steam version)
