Manual Plotting

True, but at least it's a more effective one man band. One aspect of simulators, that really bugs me, is being forced to blitz around in order to handle tasks, that would normally be handled by other crewmembers. Whether we're talking about WWII subs or modern airliners, that unfortunate aspect usually makes its presence.

I know. That's what I was talking about as well. I don't think the conning tower has room for a table to draw a plot on, while there is a table large enough in the navigator's station. Plus I haven't seen a table in any screens or videos featuring the conning tower.

Well, I second it.
