Mk 46 mod 4 will only go after submarines as the ceiling is hard coded to 50' - too deep for a ship, they stop seeking if they go above 50'.
mod 5 version has a shallow water capacity, that appears to be the model in the game as it will attack targets shallower than 50'.
Is it possible to have the passive seeker on the mine (the Mk46) ignore targets that are less than 50' deep? If it ignores shallow targets, it shouldn't trigger if merchant/surface vessel passes it.
Or do I just not understand the game engine enough?
