Instantly my little detection symbol in form of a U-Boot (I'm playing SH3 1.4b) goes from green to red - the merchant had detected me apparently. I was like "Huh?"
Just to be sure, I checked with my hydrophone man and consulted my map (F5). No warships in the vicinity. So how did this merchant detect me when I went to full underwater speed!? A game bug?  |
Your noise meter is simply an indication you are making noise. It is not an indicator of you being detected or otherwise.

I don't know myself. Just an idea.

Late war merchants are not fitted with hydrophones. Remember, hydrophones are useless on the surface.
Nor do thay have Asdic fitted.
