Ok, I cannot turn the hydrophones or radar. Whats up?

I honestly have no idea what I am doing wrong, but I cannot turn the hydrophones or radar when the radar is on focus mode.

With hydrophones I try to click the direction handler... the one that is turning when I am not at the station myself. Nothing happens. I have clicked about everything now and only thing I can do is use the sonar (ping the distance and send it to the TDC)

Bug or an incompetent captain?:O

Use the Home & End keys.

The hotkeys weren't listed on the hotkey card for some reason.

The radar has some problems with it.

For example, with single radar (air search) installed you can not switch it on (the 3D control is has no effect and a mapping a key stroke doesn't work) or see it operating but your AI crewman can still use it to report surface and air contacts.

Sorry, I meant what Nefarius here aswered. I couldn't turn the bearing of the hydrophone. The home end keys did the trick. Thanks a lot!

Thanks Ryuzu too

So this means we can guide the sonar sweep with the mouse pointer like we could in SH3? We have to use the keyboard?

I think I found a bug here on top of no mouse control. I clicked on the sonar screen thinking I would be able to direct where it points. Instead, my view turned to the right (as if looking right) and stayed there. I could not get out of that view no matter what I tried.
