However it is always possible to submerge to eliminate the problem and surface only for reloading batteries.
As I personally play max 128 TC it's not disturbing and keeps me busy.
For the attack/hunted part, it's not so important to have a precise position on the map because during these phases it is the positioning of others relative to your boat that counts. You can even draw your attack plot on a separate piece of paper, it will make no difference.
I also use 128 max and the 6 dial mod, its very useful to correct the course deviations, regarding the combat he means that when you are hunting or being hunted in bad weather ,you make several changes of course and speed and its very difficult to keep track of your position due to this.
