I'd be very interested to find out if GW has this mod implemented...
GW does indeed include Jungman's snorkel fix relating to detection. Though it may not be a cure-all it certainly helps.
So, it's true...Nobody has touched AI sensors.dat after July 2005...
I woudlnt say that. Im sure lots of ppl have, just nobody's gone and zipped it up yet. I have my own whole sensor suite im running, i call it "MY_Sensor_mod" in JSGME, i figure most everyones been tweaking with various files. Not like the tools to do so is any big secret or overly hard to use.
Rgr that...

@ vonHelsching the GW team (specifically Marhkimov and myself) have spent a great deal of time on the DD agression issues and the DD pinpoint laser guided deptch charge system presented in stock.

Its in the readme regarding the sources of the information. Redwine, CB, Casposfungin, Jungman, and our very own Gouldjg and Rubini all made useful discoveries presented in 22 or so page thread dealing with that matter.

To make a long story short, this is probably the most tested element of GW. Without giving a 20 page dissertation that may come in the future... I think we hit the nail on the head.

In GW early in the war the DD's are dummies. As the war goes on, crew skill generally increases as do the number of escorts and the availability of quality equipment. Your chances of career survivablilty in DiD mode drop significantly.

Once we refine the mechanical elements in GW that need tuning, I can discuss these things in more detail.

I'm sorry if that sounds like I'm saying, "Trust me!" Its only that I have to prioritize my time still... Problem solving first... theory and discussion later.

I'm sorry if you feel this isn't what you expected to hear.
