I think the fog dosn't effect the reflections in game

The ships on the horizon look great, kind of hazy looking.. but the reflections are very dark and visible before the ship itself comes into view. You'll need to click this thumbnail and view it full size to see what I mean.

I had a small taste of this myself earlier today - there was a small Japanese minesweeper just barely visible out at the edge of the fog limit (whatever the second-worst level of fog/visibility is) in heavy overcast - it looked really nice, BUT there was something that looked like a darker reflection to it that just didn't look quite right under the circumstances (I doubt that you would actually see any reflection at all, much less a darker one, at that range and in that foggy condition, but I've never actually been at sea observing ships under these precise conditions so I'm only guessing here). I'm wondering if maybe it's an offshoot of the same issue that causes the flickering too-light ship reflections at long range at night? It would probably be nice if there were some setting that would just turn off reflections entirely past a certain range - I wonder if that's possible :hmm:

I have seen it in my own game yes havn't figured out why reflections show through the fog before ship's do either I am missing something or the fog dosn't effect the reflections.
Again I am looking into this after seeing it myself just not sure where to start.
