Re Increase of asdic influence:
It was Observer who made the changes, but DTB certainly knew what had been done - unlike myself, who never thought it necessary to ask at the time, although I performed a lot of the testing.

It's my understanding that all units can only use one sensor at a time and switch quickly between the sensors until they have a contact with one sensor. The units will then use this sensor until contact is lost.

This may indeed be true, I regret that I do not know.
Inspection and comparison of the AI_Sensors.dat file with stock SH3 shows that most or all parameters for each of the several asdics have been altered in NYGM. Also some of the parameters in sim.cfg. One particularly important change was to provide a 'dead area' (no detection) for asdic behind the warship's stern, in order to mimick the propeller noise behind the escort. Also, another dead area was provided when the escort was within 100-200 metres of the warship (ie, loss of asdic as the warship began its attack run). Neither of these last two changes were available in stock SH3.
