Its best to understand what the different settings are for then you can change it to you own liking.
Lets take Ai hydrophone:
MinRange: Is in metric value. if you increase this value a bit the Enemy ship have harder to pinpoint you exactly where you are. Means the depthcharges wont be so accurate. If they go below this value they will loos track of you meaning they have to guess a bit.
Max range is metric also. And is how far away they can spot you.
Max height is metric and reflect how deep down they can spot you. I prefer to have this little shallow than my estimated crusch depth. Dont forget the negative value. that means its below the surface.
Min height is same. Tells starting depth to spot you / depthcharge
Min bearing should be at 0
Max bearing is measured in degrees. the closer you set this value to 0 then the enemy have a more narrower search area. 0 is thier heding and 180 is behind them, if you have it set to 140 degrees. Means thier search area will go in a cone shape. So they will have some deadzon ( 140-180 degrees more or less behind the ship)where they have hard to track you/hear you if you stay out of thier limitation.
Min and max elevation. is measured in degrees and tells about the vertical detection
bearing is on the horizontal plane and height is on the vertical plane.
Well this is how i understand how it works but of course i might be wrong. Iam not an expert at all in this and i know there are guys that know far more than i do in this out there.
