SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - [TEC] Getting aircraft to attack periscopes

You always read about subs that are not even surfaced being attacked by aircraft. In game this never happens, certainly not earlier in the war.

I notice that the big planes get radar at some point. I need to test and see if H8Ks after they get radar can/will attack a periscope. It would be interesting if this was possible.

If no tweaking to the visual "sensor" would allow this, my thought was that perhaps it might be faked with an extremely short-ranged radar added to the plane eqp files. It's sole purpose would be to change the detection chances so that the results more closely mimic reality, it would be a "fake" radar.

Make any sense?
