Default FYI you CAN return to course

Just add another waypoint after the current endpoint.

There's a lot you can do that isn't mapped by default. Did you know you could still turn off battery charging if you need that extra speed after surfacing? How about getting weather reports? Distance at current speed? All the stuff we used to have is still there, just not mapped by default for some unfathomable reason.

It seems their desire to map the wasd movement and follow the FPS conventions confuounded their ability to map hotkeys..

This is basic stuff that in my opinion required information / commands.

Why cant I simply state 'return to course' why do I have to open the G.D. map and add a waypoint
