Good job at making up for my laziness steppenwolf! (sorry guys, but seriously, im so burnt out right now, it's not even funny)
ANyway its easy to verify if those settings will work for thermal layers. Heres what you do.
1.) adjust the file so it has the additions first (duh!)
2.) start a fake career game with SH3 commander. you dont have to acutaly load the game, just get SH3 to start up from SH3 commander.
3.) Exit SH3 commander, DO NOT rollback.
4.) Open TT's tweaker, and examine the AI_sensors.dat with the tweakfile ive provided. All values in there should be normal digits. You should not see something like "3E5451+1" ANYWHERE in the file. If you don't see any value similar to that, it's good.
5.) Rollback SH3 commander.
