I use TheDarkWraith's "no hydrophone on surface" and I detect targets at 20 metres. As far as I know his "no hydrophone" switches sonar off at any depth above 9 m, so 20 metres should be far enough. I'll look into it though, so if you're correct, I'll modify my scripts accordingly.
There are at least 2 reasons I see for it to be rather 20 metres than 30 metres:
- historical correctness (although it would be rather incorrect to dive to sonar check every hour),
- safety - shallow waters of continental shelve, especially at British Eastern coast, would kill any sub attempting to dive to 30 metres every hour.
Thanks for info.
