Question... If the escorts are always pinging, even when you can't hear, are they also listening, thus able to ping and listen at the same time?
At what speeds if any does their hearing abiltiy so to speak start degrading.
I thought in times pass since they always ping, they only listen when they stop.
For instance a group of five escorts are looking for you in circles moving, you hear no pinging yet, are they pinging, listening, both? Say one escort pings you, since you're in the active sonar cone and you can hear the ping, doe's he stop listening then.
It seems people are saying they're always active, but you only hear when you're in the cone...

This would be somewhat easy to definitively test.
Make a quick mod where the DD in your test mission only has an active sonar. Piss him off, then see what happens.
