Default can't find navigation marks

Ok, I just reloaded my mod soup. For some reason my navigator will not give me any kind of fix. The option is not in his report menu. Also when I first start a patrol my sub does not show on any maps. I am using real navigation. How do I get my navigator to work again?

That's why you run RealNav - you have to determine your position yourself with or without assistance from your crew.

So you are saying that the only way you can get a fix is with the sextant? I was running real nav before and I could ask the navigatior for a fix, maybe the real navigation mod was not working right.

Asking navigator for a dead-reckoning fix should produce an Nxx mark on the map in some minutes. Asking navigator for a celestrial fix should produce an Nxx mark somewhere between 30-60 minutes.

Right that's what it was doing before, but not now. I didn't change any of the setting so I don't know what i did.

try installing the real navigation add-on mod last in your soup.

No, putting real nav last didn't make any difference. Any other suggestions?
