At the risk of hijacking this thread, I'd like to add a couple of requests for compass mods/fixes:

1. An indicator at dead center top of the compass' outside casing to show straight ahead - with no such indicator, it's impossible to simply/easily click to order (for example) "change course ten degrees to starboard".

2. Is there any way we can get back the two-ring approach used in SH3? I don't see why there's anything particularly "German" about that approach, and it's not like the American Subs actually had any dial like this that they clicked with their mouse IRL to order course changes, so "historical accuracy" for this dial would not seem to be particularly important. Having the inner ring back so you can easily order a course change relative to your current course would help immensely (If I spot a ship bearing 45 degrees, I'd like to be able to click easily to order "come right 45 degrees", without having to try to do the guesstimation I have to do now with the SH4-style compass dial interface).

Anyone know if this can be done?
