If I adjusted the surface factor so a BB detection range drops to 0 with a 0 AOB, i believe that all other smaller craft would become undetectable by the radar.
edit:
For what its worth, how i derived at the above figures, i had a test mission with 3 ships.
A DD, a merchant, and a yamoto. All ships in line from north to south, with 1000 meters spacing in between each ship. I positioned the the starting position 45KM at a 90 degree angle to the middle ship (the merchant).
Always, id detect the BB first. Then the merchent, and then the DD. In that order. The only varience was when i detected them. Detection range would vary based on surface factor of the radar, and the AOB i placed the target ships.

Frankly im tired of working on this. When i post the next update to TMO, it's going to be either model A (what it is now) or model B as written in this post.
edit 3:
Or better yet, just bypass all decision making and make it an alternate mod. I have a feeling no matter what i do, people are going to pick this apart looking for tits on realistic performance that i honestly don't think the game engine will give.
