What i am trying to explain and query about is: when you zoom in on the nav map it shows the scale markers but it doesn't show your degrees east or west, or degrees north or south,
and was hoping there was a way to show these on the edges as you zoom in just like the scale markers. or putting in another order request tab for the navigation officer reporting your position ie: 3 degrees east, 27 degrees South, etc, hope this makes my idea a bit clearer.

Sorry but am unable to post attachments at this current time, maybe once i have been on here for a while longer i will be able to post screenshots.
Ah, I think I understand now

Well, the first thing needed to be able to implement such information is that the game actually has it and tracks it. And I suspect it doesn't, for most probably the position of your boat and the rest of units in the world is given in simple horizontal/vertical coordinates, as in the mission editor. It is very probable that the Devs used a debug mode where such coordinates were shown in the screen, but they probably won't be in grades/minutes/seconds for the reasons I outlined.
