Is there any way of providing more variations in the Compression Selections
In particular I would appreciate a different Compression for Radar Reports and WO eyeball sightings.
The problem I am having is with only one compression rating for both Radar and WO spotting you either have to have the Compression low enough to give you time to react to close WO sightings which means that a whole series of radar sightings (often re lifeboats left behind) leads to extremely slow and interrupted progress---or alternatively a high Compression setting which enables you to move more freely with distant radar spottings but very vulnerable with very short reaction times to sudden unexpected close range WO warnings.
How do others deal with this ---and is there any way (modders?) to provide more variety of Compression settings

Thanks for any feedback

If I remember correct you can change all that in your \Data\Cfg\Main.cfg file.

Should be a [TIME COMPRESSION] setting there.

Yes you can select compressions for the factors listed---but there is only one choice for "Enemy Detected"

So the same setting will apply to both radar detections (at long distance) and WO detections at close range.
My problem is I dont think the same compression default is appropriate to these long and short range sightings. I would like to be able to use a different compression default for each
