"Depending on the setting of the EMCON AT MISSION STARTUP option in the Game Options screen, your platforms’ radars are ON or OFF at the start of your mission. Be sure to visit the Game Options screen before starting your mission. If you start a mission in Emissions Control (EMCON) status, all of your platforms with the exception of airborne platforms have all sensors OFF. If you turn the EMCON AT MISSION STARTUP option OFF, all platforms begin the mission with radars ON."

At game exit you can lose sync if not set to OFF an upon restart units can change course to track.

On a side note, I'd watch out for Subnuts, he's moving into mookie's turf.

Start timer now.

That is the accurate and complete answer I was looking for. Consider yourself the winner of this question. Next Subsim trivia question will be posted within 12 hours or less.

Answer in this thread.
Isn't it obvious? It's the EMCON button! It's always going to turn everybody onto poodles!

The "Maintain Depth" key, but only if you were using imperial measurements.

(Which was "A" by default)

Question 15: In the cinematic subsim thriller Silent Steel, at the beginning of the game as the CO gets his coffee in the mess and makes his way to the control room, how does he address the sailor seated alone, reading a magazine?
