Situation:
I have asked this in the WoS thread, Veko said that it's disabled because it would 'occasionally mess-up savegames'.
I cannot confirm this up to now, in my modlist this works very fine, also during campaign , a fine tool against difficult convoys with many escorts - and a eyecandy cinematic battle to watch also
But I didn't try it yet in WoS, I'm too busy testing my own modlist, it takes a lot of time to generate contacts in a campaign and repeat all stuff to test it, even with TC feature.
However, TDW when he made the Generic Patcher, he did know much more than myself, there must have been a serious reason for him to disable this interesting feature, but up to now I don't see anything game-adversive. (It must be accounted that a decade ago when the Patcher was made, computers were much less performing, so today you are likely ok to enable this).
I will enable it for testing in WoS next time and will let you know, yes.
What you can do yourself in the meantime is:
There are 2 patch series to enable in the TDW Patcher (one has up to 15 sub-entries!). My screenshot above is 1 of them.
Do the changes and note if there are differences. You should see much more planes joining your location (friendly and enemies!) after using 'Send Contact Report'. Planes are comming from airbases if in range and if BDU thinks it's worth to support you. If you are detected, expect enemy planes joining the 'party' comming from enemy airbases or CVs in range.
Important:
If you have problems in your game suddenly after these changes, then revert the changes...
