I am trying to conduct a night surface attack early in the war (still 1939), but it's nearly impossible since the destroyer can hear my diesel engine while I'm surfaced. This is not realistic, right? I've tested with all the units visual on the map, and there its very clear that they just have some 70-100m sight (the dar ring around them) but they can hear my engine on full ahead on some 1600m.

Is there any way to have a "no hydrophone surface detection" mod for the DDs, similar to the "no surface hydrophone" that exist.
