Hi Sugardust and welcom to subsim

you play with stock game or modded?
If modded ,which your mod list?
in the stock game when you go to the navigation map the enemy ships are colored in red

Think good mod list for start.. But why 2° waterstrem? You want use type II uboat?
And my advice, install SH3 commander + GWX file fix for commander

Sh3 commander ( install in sh3 folder ):
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=4789

GWX file for sh3commander

I will look into these, thank you. And yes, I do use the Type II when starting a new career, I usually choose the first flotilla in Kiel which starts you with a Type II.

I enjoy the challenge of it I think.

Hi Sugardust.

From your list are you actually running GWX? If so in the UZO and attack periscope screens, at the top left you should have a box that says "FLAGGEN" left click and drag this into the middle of the screen for a full list of nations flags and whether they are allied, axis or neutral (with dates).

Hope this helps.
