IMO, it is not for the faint of heart. It can be done, but absorbs a lot of time and energy, making taking on the IJN almost an afterthought. There is a thread for Celestial Navigation in the forum. It is well worth reading if you want to try it.

I'm not sure how to fix that. I just wanted to add my WELCOME ABOARD to the others.

Im using the 1.3 patch do i need to upgrade to the 1.4 patch or should it work with 1.3?

Only very old versions would work with 1.3 or 1.4. Anything more recent would require the 1.5 version uboat missions upgrade.
