Default Note:

OK I fly older style planes...and with light fog and considering speed of a boat visibility range would be roughly 2 NM...I once was on a mission looking for a person who fell off a rig....IN good conditions...and with modern equipment it took us 3 hours...now I know a Sub is much bigger...however it is very very hard to see something that size in anything less than perfect conditions...especially with OLD planes of WW2... from what I know and remember

poor conditions=rain/snow/fog VR would be <1 NM
good conditions=overcast etc etc VR would be 1 to 5NM
great conditions=perfect weather and seas flat VR easy 10NM
anything over 10 NM then you need some visual aid...

this is just my humble opinion...

There is aboslutely no way this should be happening: (time of day is high noon, so no greylight conditions)


Somethings wrong here. Seriously, what does one have to do? drop fog factor to 0.5 and the surface factor to 35?

Said plane eventualy did spot me, but only AFTER he passed me. I noticed something weird with planes detecting me starting after patch 1.2. Anyone else notice this?[/quote]
