Thanks.
I presume that at least one of the four times is during daylight hours.
I wonder why this approach reduces the chance of being detected. You are still surfaced 4 hours out of every 24, but now at least one of those hours is during daylight. I hadn't tried this approach because it seemed to me to increase the chance of being spotted.
Does anybody know if the game engine works in such a way that being surfaced for one two hour recharge makes you more likely to be spotted by aircraft than being surfaced for two separate one hour recharges?
