If he's at distance, passive obviously. Once hes on you, truthfully i don't know. My assumption has always been whichever one is recieving a signal.
Heres
a big guess .. i mean.. i a wild stab in the dark in psuedocode.
ActiveContact = In sonar cone, with X amout of surface area visible, for Y seconds.
If NoActiveContact
then Listen
If HaveActiveContact
then Ping
else Listen
Only one who can say for sure is the developers. Everything i know, is what was learned from Sh3 from various sources and own observations.
