What do you mean by "track"? The wake or something else?

The track you see in your attack/mini map that shows you were your torpedoes will go.

I thought it was call the track?.

Is it the torpedo course/angle?

Cheers.

The line is there, the ships direction is there, but it does seem to be missing the "X" of calculated impact... - this is in both manual and auto... The line at times is obscured by the sonar lines if you haven't completed a "solution"... or whatever the correct terminology is. Looking into it.

No. I have not found anything obvious. The only thing missing in my display is the 'X' marks the spot. If I am on auto, then I get a normal auto-targeting display, and if on manual, I get a normal manual-targeting display, so long as I have all data input and set - other than the projected intercept location, which with my manual-targeting, is either 3 thousand yards beyond the target, or 500 yards short, or way out in left field, which is not unusual for me... lol - We'll keep looking though. I'm going through each boat, and using various ships in test missions to see if its all (which it appears to be). I just made a fresh install and I will be in the process of testing further here later today.
