Default how I play the game silent Hunter GWX

first off, I play it at a 100% all things equaling true.I tried many ways to get the map of the game outside the game. I tried tracing paper on the monitor at 125x but trying to use the protractor made it very difficult to measure the distance. Then I tried using print paper but had great difficulty in seeing the lines to trace . So I bought plastic and trace the map by placing the monitor flat laying the plastic on top of it but, the protractor wouldn't penetrate the plastic. So as a last resort I decided to take screenshots .the problem with taking screenshots of the map is, you're not taking a picture of a picture you're taking a picture of the pectorals. Now when you go to line up the grid marks they don't exactly match. The ink usage for red yellow and blue was $90. The purchasing of a X-Acto knife, a 90° ruler and one ship load of paper a high-intensity light came to about $50.so after about seven days at nine hours a day I had enough of the map to leave from breast on my first campaign. I tested, my ability to navigate on the map I created at my desk,departure was from BREST. My destination was a small island that doesn't have a name just outside of the point on the starboard side of the continent. Adjusting the the protractor to the correct distance and time and speed word in itself a little tricky. At a speed of 10 knots and a course of 250 taking two hours and 44 min. turn to a heading of 314 four 30 km at a speed of 10 kn ,one hour and 38 min. later I hit the island I ran the sub at one x I can tell you it was with great joy that I was able to do that
