Probably it just simulates the errors of the sailors. I guess maintaining a constant course for hours is a difficult task. But controlling such things is the job of NA. It is already enough that I do all the job for weapon officer.

Probably a good compromise will be NA still tracks the submarine, but for longer times the position becomes less and less accurate so there a need to fix the correct position from time to time. I think it will be difficult/impossible to realize in SH3.


Even if SH5 do these things better, it contains pesky Uplay -- I will not touch it with a 10-nm pole.
