I recommend testing this new file in the "edit" mission I posted on the previous page using a Porpoise from 1945 which lacks the SJ radar. You're first hint of a surface contact should be when you spot Yamato steaming at you at 25 kts from bearing 313. Planes are from 0, 180, 270, 90 degrees in the mission and all are set at 500m altitude, the one from 270 arrives a bit late I noticed.
The fix for SD was simple...
Elevation!!!! Stopped it dipping below horizon while keeping the 90/270 fix for a full 360 sweep.
WARNING!!!! - low flying aircraft may not be detected. I have tested 100m and 50m and they can approach the SD undetected. 500m - the default altitiude for planes in the game - is detected however..
This variation with altitude may add to the realism as US subs with SD could not not detect very low flying planes... so don't be over-reliant on your new "fully functional" SD set.. |
Sounds like a near perfect solution for the time being. Now we just need to get rid of the the bearing information!
So, with the fix in place, is there any practical difference between SD early and SD late. I know you tested with a '45 Porpoise, but I assume this has SD late. Have you tested SD early?
p.s. - Remind us where the file belongs. Thanks.
