I have recently returned to silent hunter after a long break and im interested in this as well.
I am by no means a technical reference on this at all but in doing some reading and researching it looks like that passive sonar was capable while surfaced due to the devices being mounted on the keel on US subs? <--- Im sure the very knowledgeable skippers out there can confirm/deny this as again im not very sure.
If anyone knows the files to look in I would be interested in making some modifications for my own personal use with regards to not having any sonar capabilities while surfaced.
This is of course if passive sonar was capable during WWII while surfaced. I like to play with as much realism as I can and am interested in this.
Im somewhat familiar with how to modify files but cant seem to locate how to enable/modify this aspect of the mod. Just a personal preference but again if this is historically accurate Id like to enable sonar while surfaced.
Literally I have just returned yesterday to silent hunter simming so I will do some more reading on the historical references on this topic to see if I can come up with an answer on my own.
