SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - Identified ships won't stay identified! 1.4? RuB?

I have no mods installed (yet) and running with the 1.4b patch. I have noticed similar behaviour, I often have to re-ID the targets (at 100% realism) after I have had the scope under water for a short while (e.g. between two timed observations to measure target speed). Funny thing is, it doesn't happen all the time - sometimes the notepad seems to "remember" my previous ship identification, but then again often it doesn't. Is it to be expected that the ID is lost if the scope was underwater for say a minute or so?

I can't tell whether it would happen in bad weather as well, if the scope just momentarily dips under, since I am still perfecting my skills in the Naval Academy (after I've had the game for a month now... you can see I am a slow learner). In the training missions the sun seems to shine all the time, so I haven't seen any waves yet.
