Never done that, but might give it a try.

Sad to hear that...
So more active radio traffic and more varied mission goals are a pipe dream you say?

You may as well leave the external views enabled for entertainment but resist the temptation to use them to cheat. I can dodge depth charges really easily using the external views, but it's a lot harder with just the hydrophone and the mk 1 earhole..

I don't have external view enabled.
The only boxes I have not checked are:
Maunal targeting
No contact actualisation on map
Dud torpedoes
No help by weapons officer
63% reality

Okay but still there might not be any available promotions/medals left to gain by mid 1941, right?
