Can someboy fix the decoy bug?

[garferi]

I think in SH3 the decoys are very unrealistics. When a destroyer comes and it very close to me I deploy a decoy, he stop and starting to go backward.
The real decoy did this in WWII:
A small decoy can't stopped a destroyer immediately. When he was very closed to a sub and the sub deployed a decoy, the destroyer didn't stop, because he gone fast and he isn't a car with handbrake. When the sub was far and used the decoy the destroyer can't find him, because his sonar get false signals.

I think this is the biggest bug in the game, and I hope to if somebody fix it.

THX!

Its not the decoy
Its the AI movements
Ships can stop on a sixpence
lol
They can also accelerate faster than most race cars from a standing start
Hardcoded behaviour

I had observed the same ship AI pattern when they were hunting me and almost hit one another. It was almost as they had brakes.

AI behaviour of ships is out of everyones control :yep:
I wish the decoys would work like that because I seldom get out of a tight fix even when using them :damn:

i personally love sending a fish at a DD from 600 yards while he was doing 24 knotts and see him stop dry like he hit a wall and as the fish passed him he was at 21 knotts again before even moving 10 yards lol.
