Hello Subsim. Haven't been here in a while.
Anyway, I got me SH4 a while back and started playing it.
And now I have almost the same question about DDs as the OP. I was tasked with taking photos in Tokyo harbour. I went to the bay entrance and arrived there at dawn, so i decided to wait out the day submerged and sneak in in darkness. I dived to 75 meters under a thermal, stopped the engine, set silent running and waited. After about 4 hours sonar picked up a warship, so I reduced TC an watched what he would do. He came to my position in a straight line, dropped everything he had and managed to hit me with 2 DCs! Then he turned around, pinged me once, again dropped a full load and again hit me with several DCs. And did it again and again.
So i quit the game and came here right away to ask if that's normal behaviour in SH4? How could that ship even know i was there?
I'm playing 1.5 with only the realistic optics mod.
