Actually, if this worked, there might be a new technique we could try. Make a long range (as long as appropriate for a ship like a DD to spot another large ship). Give it the worst possible sensitivity for that range to detect a ship at whatever range. Ideally, it would then be blind to a sub to some amingly close range. Say it sees a BB at 8km (assuming the max visual is 8km), but doesn't see a sub until 500m making flank, and won't ever spot a scope. Then add a second visual that only goes to 2000m, but dialed in so it can possibly see a sub depending on speed at night at 2000, but if the sub is good, he can avoid detection til a much shorter range.

May I suggest you consider the heigth of the sensor? Since a submarine is not as high out of the water (When surfaced) as a medium/large size ship, you could simplify this all by setting a minimal heigth in the long and medium range sensor. That way, only large/medium ships would be see at long distance (Day or night) and subs would be spotted when really close :hmm:
