<< a) It probably has something to do with my crappy sonar display ... again - there is something very weak out there. Ah well, at least my headphones / noise spectral analyzer is better than my displays.
b) It is a bug. Somehow, Sonalysts, who brought us this fine simulation, had misaligned the computer and display detection theresholds... and showing me something I have no right to see.

How will he know the difference? You can only (at least in my experience) get this quirk occasionally in a real game. He's probably going to conclude he got lucky and picked up some kind of microsignal - didn't Sonalysts say something about improving the sonar model after all; which means more quirks, right? It is just the inverse of my stupid actve sonar not picking up a clear return at 5000 yards, no? >>>>

the above is a good post. thinks things thru ,plays devils advocate, keeps an open mind to possibilities, its too bad more of you arent as wise.

personally
a) there are times i cannot mark clear contacts until having clicked on them repeatedly for a few minutes. why ? i dunno. um, if there are visible contacts that i cannot mark it is merely "equally" odd that there marked contacts i cannot see. no more no less.
b) LW noted there there are some gamma issues that could prevent some people from seeing some contacts.
c) so if i happen to click around and happen to get a contact maybe im supposed to see it and for some reason just cant. how am i to know ?
d) i have even noticed the autocrew mark something i cannot see in russian subs. this supports maybe sumthing about my gamma settings is preventing me from seeing something and/or that i am supposed to click around.
e) i noticed these oddities a while ago and checked the 1.03 documentation which states clearly that this problem has been fixed - so once again the expectation that i am SUPPOSED to see these contacts and for some reason just cannot is again supported.
f) how can yall spend so much time slamming people for abusing a cheat if tlam and oko only just clearly determined there's still a bug ?

no one can be abusing a known cheat until the public is actually informed there is a bug. duh ?

simple temporary solution is to avoid kilos altogether in multi.

a few of you really need to take your periscope out of your icehole now and again.
