1) sunrise, sunset, moon conditions?
i remotely remember seeing some sort of useful calendar somewhere, but now i can't seem to find these infos anymore!

2) imagine every single console on a german u-boat having, among other stuff, generally 2 large buttons - both of which will instantly launch a torpedo if pressed for any reason whatsoever. that's what the 2 ENTER buttons on my keyboard are. i hate it.
i'm in my first patrol now, doing nothing but evading constant aircraft raids in the mediterranean, have yet to see my first enemy ship - nevertheless i've already lost 2 torpedos to the accidental enter-pushing. i really expected GWX to fix this idiotic feature - what did i miss? do i have to install another mod, or fix another setting?

3) back in my old SH3 days, i always hated it when i was cruising around in like x512 - and the timescale wouldn't properly go down to x1 when sth important happened, like new radio message or contact report... (it appears to be sometimes going down to 8x, sometimes not.. have yet to find a pattern. but 8x is still a stupid idea, why not 1x?)
more than once did i look up from my book only to see an hour-old contact report that would have been perfect for my past position.
again: is there any setting or mod to address this issue?

thanks in advance!
