But since the update, daytime detection has become almost instantaneous... if the vis is moderate as soon as I'm past 9km to the target, my detection meter goes red and they immediately start evasive maneuvers. This has happened so far in all weather conditions and no matter how low in the water I run the boat (without actually submerging that is)... as soon as the target or enemy "could" see me, they automatically do and react.

As it is right now, I can't attack anyone during daylight as I can't catch single merchants submerged (unless I plot way ahead of them, which can be difficult as I can't get within visual range to get a good position fix) and I can't even get close enough to a convoy to figure out what I'm up against without 2-3 of the escorts hauling off in my direction.

I remember that you said that the fix would not affect daytime detection ability, so I'm wondering if I'm an isolated case in this or if it is something you've identified and are planning to fix.

Thanks,
Greg
Greg, thanks for the feedback. This certainly concerns me, so I'll do some more testing when I get back home.
