If your lookouts or enemy escorts aren't spotting anything until they're right on top of each other, then it sounds as though the sim.cfg file may have been tampered with (...data/cfg). It is strongly recommended that users leave this file exactly as it is. This is especially the case for the [Mech] section of the file, where it is tempting to experiment with how ships interact with the waves - changing these values can have extremely adverse effects on AI spotting. Don't touch it.
Don't touch it unless you are sure what you are doing is good advice.

Speaking of adjusting files that affect the game, I'll pop this in here.... (although I may be committing heresy). I recommend you try RFB by itself over the Stock install & campaign (with the Special Missions corrected) and get a feel for RFB in its 'pure' form. If you really want a different campaign than Stock, then there is an off site campaign; 'Guerrilla Submarines Spyron Mod' campaign you can find with a search engine that you might like.

RSRD is a good campaign mod and many people like it however it may change some files in RFB that may have you playing 'RSRD Boat' instead, with its settings, some of which may be different than the carefully adjusted files in the RFB mod.

RFB doesn't correct the Special Missions, however Dgreyson aka Florida Sailor made a mod that corrected them. His mod is probably around here somewhere, or should be.

Happy Hunting!
