Now on BHs particular question, yes, you can carry out realistic night surface attacks. It is possible to sneak to within 1,000 meters of merchants in a convoy on the surface at night without being spotted. Night, especially with no moon is suitably dark.

Escorts are not blind, however. If you are spotted by one, expect starshells to be immediately fired over you, at which point the life expectancy of your sub goes down dramatically...

Thanks for the reply, good to know and from videos posted here looks like nights are pretty dark. Hmm sounds like sniper like fire every time? Hope not. Subs were not easy to hit with gunfire on surface, especially at night. Something else I had to mod in SH 4 to make night surface attacks reflect reality.


How is the AI behavior for depth charge attacks?


When start a patrol, do you start in base and transit to/from area? Hope so
