ok when i bring up the big tac....there is 3 buttons towards the bottom of the other commands. the first two deal with the guns but then the third button has a picture of what looks like a can or a speaker or something.....my question is what is this and what does it do if it is selected on. please help.

Yes Mandingo .It took me a while when I got the game scrutinising that odd representation of the end of a gun barrel .
That's it , your deck guns .
Other two are AA , and the other ones.

That is a COLLISION SIREN (and completely impossible to discern it's use).
We have updated that icon in the upcoming feature patch to something substantially easier to understand. It tells your crew to use best efforts to avoid incoming torpedoes, bombs, etc. without your intervention.

Yes Just realised that !
Never had need to look at it or use it!
When playing the demo ( without voice control etc) I thought it was conneceted with deck guns !
However ,I have been looking more closely and experimenting , it switches on when you say "Take evasive".....and when manually switched on,,,your boast does make evasive movements !
( Never use that much either - the few times I did , the torpedoes weren't evaded! )
An odd looking symbol ,,not clear .
At last you have explained what it really is East, !
Finally !

There's a very decent Game Manual PDF file installed with the game. All of these questions are answered therein.
