Oh, I have (in unmodified GWX 2.0). Like I said, low profile + low speed.

I agree. I'm still not convinced that the colour settings have any effect on sensors, but if they do, and if my mod makes ships more blind at night, then - brilliant!!!

It was a risky attack, but again I've done that same thing many times in unmodified GWX 2.0. Early in the war, the enemy are blind and deaf.

Yes, yes, I know, it's happened many times. It wasn't a very professional attack. But early in the war it usually works, even without the OLCE (1 or 2) installed.

OK, I quickly fired up a saved night-time attack game, at the darkest time of night with the Ubermod installed, and this time I just barged in at ahead flank instead of using my usual, careful approach.

They're blind.
Totally blind, actually, at night.
I've found the problem and I'm fixing it.

Edit: sorry for the OT.

Thought we'd pick up some cockles and whelks and have a go on the slots before the war kicks off.
