You´re right with the speed factor, guess i´ll go back to 15 or 16 like you.
But somewhere i´ve read passive sonar in ww2 was useless when moving more than 12 kts, so maybe it´s just what is was like...
I´ll do further tweaking ´till i found a setup that fits my personal needs and just for the fun of doing it...
Don´t know it was noticable that hard in vanilla game, but i have now a huge difference in running 3 knots with and without silent running.
I like that, and i really hate to clicking the boat to 1 knot.
The worst thing here is the chief telling me (in german) "Actual speed=0 knots)
Not an option for me, pressing z is much more satisfying.
Chief:"Aye sir, silent running"
much much better

Aye I have ahead slow set to .15 about 1.5 kt submerged - mucho better
Agree 12kt should be too noisy for them to easily hear us, but at speed factor +1 they just start chuggin on by and never wanna play

It sucks to have to wave your periscope at them in 505
I havn't really started playing with sonar - passive is killing me well enough lol.
