Hey Brag,
I am curious to know how you decide where you will be putting the ship marks on this map? Whenever I am submerged and sneaking up on a convoy with my periscope down, I obviously have a readout which lets me know the contact's bearing and after a few of these I can deduce approximately which direction he's heading in, but how can you figure out it's range? Is it where the contact line begings to fade?

Also does anyone know where i can find the hydrophone tutorial that keeps getting mentionned? I know the difference between a ship with one or two screws, but aside from that, I'm still pretty much lost...

Thx
High voltage
