RE Optional mods.
I stopped doing things as optional for two reasons.
1.) I don't have the time (while this may sound uppity, its the gods honest truth)
2.) it was distracting me from my primary goal. (with what time i do have, i need to maintain focus)
In short, i cannot please everybody, so i stopped trying to.
RE: visual detection by planes at while deep.
Pre patch 1.4 i had this adjusted to be as nearly perfect as i could. This has changed post patch, and the current depth of detection is not intended. Adjusting this is anything BUT science. It takes alot of time, and trial and error testing. Whats more theres so many variables involved that effect visual detection that consistant results are hard to obtain.
