@H.sie, LGN1,

The behaviour you are describing with the stealth meter may vary between super-mods. NYGM and GWX definitely have different detection models.

For NYGM, it is essential to go to silent running to avoid detection by a destroyer which is close, although it also depends on the stage of the war and the competence of the destroyer crew. Destroyer hydrophones and asdic are *much* more effective in late 1944 than 1939!

The 'state' of the U-boat is described within the SH3.exe code, where it can be 'hunter' or 'prey', or 'silent-hunter' or 'silent-prey', among other states. This state presumably is set with the 'statemachine.dll' code.
