what about the thermal layer?
since it effects detection, my little brain thought about making a very strong thermal layer in shallow water to mask you if you sit on bottom. can this be done?
i assume the effect of the thermal layer is tweakable but can it be added to all sea floors?
this is certainly no fix but it would be about the best we could do with the game limitations. |
I am not sure Werner... but i think so not, the thermal layer is modelled as a plain horizontal boundary, and the sea floor is not like that. Is is a "inclined" (is it a correct english word ?) bank angle irregular surface, with climbing/descending variation... (sorry my bad english)

This is a legacy from SH III, there, the AI serach/hunt was triggered by an initial detection, they are not always searching for you up to they have an initial contact wich seems to trigger the hunt for you.
