Yeah, but if you're in a station you just see the red X. Like I decided to lay down and take a nap in my captain's bunk till nightfall but I had no way of knowing what time it was since all I saw was the X for Leave Station.

I've noticed that only one of the ships clocks work and show correct time, and thats the one in the sonar station, may be one other at another location but I dont remember right now.
All the other are stuck at 12:00 and never move off that.

Somebody go back to port and bring back a crapload of clock batteries will ya?

But yes one can always bring up the stopwatch/clock, but it's nice to just swing around and look up at the ships clock and see at a glance.
This was one of the first things I noticed while exploring the ship on the first mission.

Well after playing for a couple hours last night and checking all staions where a clock exists, I find that only two are working.
However the two that are working, are missing the seconds hand, and only have the hour hand. And one of them has no hands at all just a clock face, and that one is the one in the far aft compartment.

Now this is the very first boat, in the very first mission of the invasion of Poland, the training one. This may change when I get this mission finished and go on to the next one as Captain. At least I hope this is the case.

Found out last night that on the navigation map, the objective box in the upper left of the screen (where it says Operation Germany or something of that nature?) Will show you the current in game date. As far as time, time compression over x1024 will bring up a stopwatch that displays the current time. Not sure if there's a button command to bring it up normally however

(At work, can't double check sorry

)
