Thanks for pointing that out, but its isn't the case when I've seen the glitch happen.
I'm aware that sail boats and ships that are not moving or are at drift will produce no sound to be picked up on the hydrophone.
I've had a warship searching for me for hours and dropping depth charges all over the place. I could hear him pass over and move about without making use of the hydrophone, but when I pushed aside my crew member to check for my self I could hear nothing. I've checked many times. Later on I could hear a merchant, but the warship that was still very active and busy to hunt me down I could not hear.
When I asked for a contract report both the warship and the merchant would be reported and could be followed, but I could only hear one of them...
This hydrophone glitch doesn't happen often, but it does happen never the less.
