For GWX players. Further modding WILL cause negative
side-effects in-game. Modding the sensors in SH3 really is
like trying to tie your boots without enough string.
This is why, in my own modding, ive done my upmost to avoid three files in particuar.
SIM.cfg, Sensors.dat, andAI_sensors.dat

In only one instance did i feel compelled to edit one of those files, and I did so limiting myself to only airborne radar's maximum range to achieve a desired effect. It was the best solution i could find without messing with other variables that would throw everything else out of whack.

The entire sensor package as a whole, is like a big pile of spagetti. I know this better then most, so i resist touching it. The top two lines dealing with the waves in the Sim.cfg alone cause HUGE ranging effects. Some good, some not so good, but it's probably the best that can be done with what there is to work with.

A piece of advice, and i say this not as someone you rubbed the wrong way, but as an avid gamer and human being. Your entire post strikes me coming from a person worn out from having obsessed over something for entirely too long and has become sick either physically, mentally or both. TAKE A BREAK. Go do something else. Do not even look at subsim or SH3 for at least 3 weeks or (preferbly) longer. Beleive me, it helps.
