It was a single mission, supplied by UBI!
Set in mid 42. They should have ASDIC.
BUT assume nothing.
I'll open it into the Editor and have a look.
Or better still, make a proper mission of my own.

They still should have heard me though. About 1000 meters off, at ahead flank, silent running off.
And by the way, I was transiting a line right in front of them at the time.
A bit like this

But yeah, it looks like something is really off regards the AI sensors in this game.

Yesterday I was trying for an hour to see how depthcharging works. Launched the PQ-17 (mentioned by Sergei) and literally ran into the escorts, flank, peri depth, through the side of their hydrophone "pacman":DL field.

No reaction.

So what do I do? I surface and start shooting at them with the deck gun!!
What happens next? Nothing, they're too far.
Though I think there was no visual field of view on the map....
after some more shooting (I hit 'em :woot:) they came up with an idea I might be the enemy.

And here's another issue:
they were unable to hit me with even one depthcharge, not even one! I was running at flank so they can track my movement, at depths from 40 to 16m. There were 3 corvettes and a destroyer I think.

But good in the bad.. I observed the pacman and sonar fields become SMALLER, literally tiny, after a depthcharge run.
Is it IN the game now? I hope so :salute:

I had a weird encounter last night. Weather was stormy. I had a DD following me just within visual range. I changed course and he followed. I decided enough was enough went to PD and turned towards him. I notice he was circling so I approached. He continued to circle but I couldn't close in on him. Every time I got within 2100m he moved away and circled again. I tried again to close but again he'd move away and then circle. And so it went on until I gave up.

In another encounter some planes flew overhead and I ignored them. A little while later I was caught on the surface by a DD who shot my boat to pieces and sunk me. Bummer. :hmmm:
