Watchstander: Surface Warfare Officer Training Simulator

Watchstander is a bridge watchstanding and COLREGs simulator built by an active-duty Navy officer to give junior officers, SWOs, and maritime learners a way to practice navigation and radar contact management offline.This isn’t a combat game. It’s about the day-to-day reality of standing a watch: issuing helm and engine orders, evaluating risk of collision, tracking contacts, and earning the Captain’s trust one maneuver at a time.I’m developing this solo alongside active service because I wanted a way to practice underway without needing a $500,000 bridge sim or a full watch team. Early Access lets me get this into the hands of other watchstanders early so we can shape it together.Whether you’re preparing for a qualification board, studying COLREGs, or just want to keep your instincts sharp, I’d be grateful for your feedback as Watchstander evolves.🔑 Key Features (Early Access)🧭 Bridge Watch Mode – Simulate realistic watchstanding conditions including contact tracking, risk evaluation, and safe ship...
