I completely agree. Theres no way I should be detecting a ship on the surface while running at flank speed. the fact that there was a storm on the go makes it even more silly.

the only mod I was running on top of TMO was the longer sinking times (tmo version) and the guerrilla spyron convoy layer mod which after checking its files doesn't touch any sensor or enviro stuff.

ive even uninstalled that now though. I came across a carrier task force with 3 cv's, 3 bb's plus various cruisers but no escorts parked of one of the bonin islands on a clear day.

after sinking 2 of the carriers (both which sank within 5 mins) the rest of the fleet didn't even move. I was very surprised how quick they sank tbh.

overall it wasn't a very immersive experience so Ive uninstalled the spyron mod and reverted to just TMO with LST.
