Well, the "EnemyDetected" setting should take you back to 8x. AirEnemy takes you back to 1x... we had seen symptoms before of the periscope "detecting" things, such as airplanes, even though the scope isn't raised, but I thought that was in the past... make sure you haven't got mod soup, as mentioned about the Truk pix... If you have the external camera enabled, see if you see airplanes there. When CapnScurvy becomes available, maybe he'll have something to mention on it. You had issues with the Medals before, didn't you mark bonamer? If you happened to accidentally use an old save, even though you exited that game play, it can cross-contaminate your install - mostly in the Save folder. So definitely check for mod soup issues...
