just got a prob/question:

1. the scenario
- created a custom mission to test it
- seawolf vs type 212 (very very silent sub) at 3kn
- my course 270° vs 90° - shipping towards with ~5nm distance between us at the nearest point (see picture - truth on, 10nm circle around the seawolf)

2. my problem
- at (more or less) exact 10nm between us the contact appears on the mid/long-term waterfall BUT not on the short-term waterfall

but the towed also shows nothing

until (more or less) exact 5nm between us, then the contact on mid/long-term get bigger and a thin (maybe 1px) line also appears on the short-term

same on the 688i

without lwami i haven't this problem at the 10nm-mark. there, the type 212 is invisible at all waterfall-screens, until i reach the 5nm-mark. then it appears on every waterfall-screens.

3. my strongly worded question
why?
