Alot had changed since the happy times of 40 - 41. On the subject of Radar, there were only 30 escorts in Sept 41 who had the new thing called RADAR. They were not only new and troublesome, but they did not have enough technicians to even maintain them. So, my point being, I believe the developers made the game more challanging to satisfy your average gamer; not your hardcore simmer. I just wonder if these areas are hard coded???

Your post is rather disjointed and mashed together so it is difficult to address. (no offense meant) However, to answer your question... if you are submerged then you were detected by other means... not by visual detection.

Regarding the U-boat Commander's Handbook... we are talking about the same book regardless.

Which developers do you refer to? What mods are you using if any?
