I need a beta tester to try this snorkel radar fix. The three basic radar sensitivity is 0.03m, 0.3m, and 1.5m.
I changed them to 0.3m, 1.5m, 2.5m respectively.
Just I guess. It is the radar MinSurface values for the 18 radar types used by the enemy ships and airplanes. I modified my AI_Sensors.dat file, which is used by my new
SonarDC_20 Mod.
The only affect is the DD are not as Super Lock On in the game for SonarDC_20 Mod.
Knowing that, and if this works decent (or need to change some values) I will make another version for use with the stock game file.
Give it a try...I do not have time to test it yet....

Just place it in you DATA/Library folder. Backup original.
Your Schnorkel will have a better chance not to be detected by airplanes so easily via the later year radars. You do not need to restart a patrol or carreer -should be immediate from an ingame save....even you periscope...and go slow not to set off visual detection.
