Supermarks not working

I click on the marker, I place it on the map and click on the map, and nothing.

Ah, ok. Then I have to say I can't help you other than confirming that SM and NavFix markers do show when playing on 'High' realism.

Same issue here, but what I have noted it tends to work within certain distance from your position. So try closer to your position, however this does not fix the issue...

Understood. I try and use them to mark bouy markers before I get to port! If I can’t use it far away, then what good are they?

I was just struggling with this, but I saw suggested elsewhere that a previous supermark or navigation mark must be visible on the map when you place the next one. It always works for me when I allow this, just sometimes you have to zoom out more.

Welcome aboard!

And BINGO! That seems to be the case, just tested it.

Thanks Dowly! Actually been a subsim member (not too active) since years ago (SH2 era probably I signed up originally? Been subsimming since AOTD!). I've long lost my original account and whatever email account I had used back then! ... Sink 'em all???!

P.S. had to update remembering that I used to play Hunt for Red October on my Apple II, so I've actually been subsimming since then...!!
