As I understand it and I read this long detailed explanation long ago, they're always pinging when in moving convoys, ect. Wish I could find it again.
The bug is you don't hear it unless you are picked up by it.
It seemed true, because fast tracking DD's shouldn't be able to pick you up.
Have you even noticed your going in to attack, then a dd makes his standard turn and get's his bow facing you. At the exact second you hear the ping or the ping happens when you get in his sonar game. So maybe it's true it is on....just what I read long ago. The way the game works it appears true.
Seems to me they're always pinging, you just can't hear it until you're picked up in their sonar cone.
However, once they find you is when they will go passive
Why it's important to stay out of their sonar cone when attacking.
