Single ship contacts are not a statement that every other contact was a radio vector, as some seem to imply, but are REPRESENTITIVE of the product of many different forms of intel, none of which are modeled in game. IMO it is a fair representation. I respect differing opinions if they are logical.

If the goal of this thread is to make the game work as desired, then... edit the SCR and RDN campaign files to have the desired % for contact reports.

ReportPosProbability=0
or
ReportPosProbability=100
or anywhere in between.
Enjoy.

If the goal of the thread is to simply berate those with different opinions, or to impress with uberhistoricalness, then that should be pretty clear from here on out.

Any bets ?
