No waypoint yet, you drive the boat all along, every sec and every minute. No command whatsoever. Got me into trouble a few times
Hope the devs will include waypoints, commands, as well as a selection of plotting tools and markers in a future update

And can we take clean screenshots without the GUI ? How please?

F10 hides the interface for screenshots.
Options : Game " Player Sub marker removes the sub icon.

I've been interested in this game since I heard of it. Seems very Dangerous Waters like. However, for a sim which is supposed to be tactical command, the manual driving in three dimensions through key commands seems unreasonable unless you have VoiceAttack which seems to be all but mandatory at this point. No waypoint navigation while you have a tactical map seems unreasonable also. Given the price, I would expect a better interface. I'm holding off on my purchase until I see some UI refinements. Seems you put a lot of work into graphics (ships, ice, water, sky, etc. looks fine) and sea warfare has detailed physics but the UI seems more like "just enough" for the devs to test the game while frustrating the player. I remember all the finesse in the attack setup I learned in DW and RSR and looking forward to getting back in the seat once I see some improvement.

Second that.

Navigation could be a little bit more comfortable. Even shortcuts for scope depth etc. would be nice.
