Common questions and operational settings resolved by marine technicians.
Q: How are coordinates mapped on the sonar terminal?
A: The navigation engine monitors coordinate changes based on pointer movements. The submarine drone aligns its altitude position using vertical axis tracking to match your input.
Q: Is there any registration or software download necessary?
A: No. SonarNav operates client-side inside standard browser formats. No signups, profile registries, or file downloads are required to launch missions.
Q: How do the speed currents increase over time?
A: The currents accelerate automatically. Every 300 cycles, the glide speed registers a step multiplier increase. Ensure you locate deflector cells early to survive high-speed obstacles.
Q: What is the local database storage key for scores?
A: Telemetry records are stored in browser localStorage using the key `sonarnav_best`. No metrics are transmitted to secondary external server structures.
Q: Can I run this simulator offline?
A: Yes. Once the files load in cache, you can execute deep sea missions without active connections. The entire game loop resides in the JavaScript layer.
Q: How can I clean my tracking records?
A: You can wipe high scores by purging browser storage details or executing local dev console storage deletions manually.
