I only played a lil RFB. Do you really actually mean you can get right up next to the enemy within feet? I don't recall this and in no situation should you get within 700 yards, unless heavy fog.
Seems with TMO if I did the right things at night, I could get to about 1500 yards against a vet escort. Problem is, if I turned showing my profile, they see from much further away.
I did play with numerous values, including env to make my own version of night surface attacks with TMO, doing things right, I can get to about 1000 yards.
During the day with stock, seems the setting was about 3000 yards, with TMO they can see you up to 10,000 yards.
Been a long time since I've played with settings, but they're many values that deal with AI values and they connect with each other. It really seems like you have a problem or corrupt file if you're not being seen during a clear night and can get to even 500 yards.
Not sure the env, but the quick fix for night visuals without messing up the overall ai is to adjust the env light values for night. Colors also come into play, but unless you do a lot of work, changing colors may not give you the desired realistic look. In the env atl file you'll see 3 weather types, the first one is no clouds, 2nd is clouds, 3rd is overcast. You don't need to mess with the 3rd. Again, been a long time so don't remember exact file names. Each weather type has several time lines adjusting the env from day to night. Easy to figure when you open them because the nights use the dark colors. Most have 8 lines and night is basically the last one. Course, within that is numerous values for colors and light. Look for values that adjust light. Now, the game uses the sun as the moon in the night files. You should see something like SunReflection on water; SunSkyInfluence, etc. Increase those and the game will produce more light, increasing visuals. This should also increase your visuals as well.
Many of us that make our own night environments prefer to darken all the colors, clouds, water, fog, ambiance, etc...which decreases visuals, but then adjust light factors to increase them back up...For me, this is a more realistic look and the AI responds better to moonlight...rather than colors. You have to plan your attacks better with angle of moon in the sky and when the moon is not out, you can get in real close...
