You do not need real nav to play like this...

1)unninstall the TDW UIs
2)to have course and range reported go in the option.py and search for these lines:

# Are the contact's actual speed shown or is a relative speed shown (slow=2-6 knots, medium=7-12 knots, fast=13+ knots)?
# change below to either True or False
ShowContactsActualSpeed = False

# Are the contact's actual course shown or is a relative course shown (E,ENE,SE,S, SW, etc.)?
# change below to either True or False
ShowContactsActualCourse = False

# for radio contact reports, at what range from the sub can the watchstanders see the contact well enough to update it's course (in kms)?
# below is in kilometers
RangeStartUpdatingContacts = 8


change to be like this:

# Are the contact's actual speed shown or is a relative speed shown (slow=2-6 knots, medium=7-12 knots, fast=13+ knots)?
# change below to either True or False
ShowContactsActualSpeed = True

# Are the contact's actual course shown or is a relative course shown (E,ENE,SE,S, SW, etc.)?
# change below to either True or False
ShowContactsActualCourse = True

# for radio contact reports, at what range from the sub can the watchstanders see the contact well enough to update it's course (in kms)?
# below is in kilometers
RangeStartUpdatingContacts = 800

3)save the file

4) enable the TDW UIs
