TMO2 change request, radar reports

That looks like a good mod. I'll fire it up and see how I get on with it.

Interestingly, I play the game most of the time staring at the map screen, unless something else takes my attention elsewhere. I find that's where I get the most SA and most likely replicates the kind of information a skipper would have in his head coming in from plot, radar, sonar, and the scopes. Having map updates on may not be totaly realistic, but it seems a pretty good way to represent info a skipper would have had at his disposal, especially given the rubbish way the crew reports info (no range data from radar, sporadic reports from everybody), and you can't ask an operator for an update easily and get what you want.
