OK that makes more sense. I have the US version. I want to reproduce what you did. It is science and an experiment should be reproduceable. I see what tools and method you used.
Dominicus and you do see the Noise Factor can have a huge effect. The Sensitivity (using my own hex editing) was mixed results; as you found.
The game mechanics of this SH3 is frustrating. Some of the most basic changes cannot be altered. I wonder if anyone ever solved the Night Vision problem of the crew.
Not using SH3 Commander yet.

for me the results were not powerfull enough to overcome the stock convoy escorts lack of alertness and aggression during normal campaign gameplay---but if you are running a sim.cfg set up with only the noisefactor actually in use the rest commented out---then the issue is that by commenting out other the entrys this has a far more pronounced effect than those you leave in---
it's not an issue of wether there is an effect or no--it's an issue of WHY there is an effect---if you see what i mean? i hope?

Yes, I understand now what you are doing. It is the Convoy Escorts Dumbness.
I only commented out the other factors for testing, it still works if left in but i think I know more what you are looking for...
If I leave all stock, and only change Noise Factor, it will work. But the DD convoy AI behaviour is still not good using this method.
The method you are using will make the DD come running after you for sure. In that sense, it is what you want to achieve.
If I only use Noise Factor, the DD convoy escorts are still dumb until I wake them up severely.
If I use your method of Sensitivity, then the convoy DD AI will wake up and they allcome after me.
I think that is what you want. And in that sense, I understand. Then you are correct. Your method will wake the escort DD to chase you. Noise Factor alone I was using will not do that.
edit: forgot the smiley
After reading from page 19, you guys have really already went over all of this with a fine tooth comb.
