I'll go along with the previous post, and add a couple things:

1. TMO increased the range that IJN ships can fire at you. Some people had the view that because cruisers have guns that range 20,000 yds., they should be shooting 20,000 yds. Also, as has already been said, there was a desire to "spice up the game".

2. Schwartzritter's caution about sunlight applies to the moon, as well. I was spotted after patiently tracking a TB on the surface in the middle of the night. Since it was several hours before sunrise, I figured I was safe. However, the moon was rising behind me and while it had not yet appeared above the horizon, the sky behind me had begun to lighten. This was just enough for them to spot me. BTW, this happened in RFB.
