That's kinda what I was looking for but it's too bad there aren't proper depth charts or indications on the map. e.g. "next darker blue =175 - 490 ft" which means 315ft difference in one colour which means if I'm at 400ft when I arrive at a "next darker blue" it could actually be 200ft or less which means CRRRRRUNCH!!! I think sub skippers would be hoping for more accurate depth info on their charts which is one element missing from the maps which could be really helpful.

As someone else suggested, the only way to really do it accuratel would be to set up something in the mission editor without enemy just to do surveys (i.e. pinging surveys) in key locations. Then transpose them graphically onto the nav map.

If I knew how to use the editor I'd give it a go but I'm a dunce at that stuff.
