I've read several accounts of real fleet boats being attacked by aircraft while cruising underwater (not just after diving). The USN thought it was enough of a threat from prewar exercises that deep, sound bearing attacks were actually the official attack doctrine at the start of the war.

So while I think you could argue the way the game allows it to be modded quantitatively, I think qualitatively it's on the right track.

Regarding all kinds of disassembly instructions, it's frankly a ton of work, I can understand why he stays away from it anymore. Even with explicit FAQs in the past, people still ask "how do I turn off X?" when the answer is "See FAQ answer number 2."

Gotta be frustrating as hell, lol.

He answered this question in the link he pointed at in the other thread I think.

Here it is:

The primary reason i stopped doing various stuff as optional was twofold.

1.) It was distracting me from my vision of the game. (every modder has this picture he tries to paint, the trick is in acheiving that picture)

2.) I simply didn't have the time to make this optional, or that optional.

The above two reasons are why when people complain, "could you make this optional?!", i tend to let it go through one ear and out the other, because i simply don't have the time to please everybody.
The aircraft spotting thing is only in the last patch or so, right? Maybe don't use that patch, or look at the file differences. My guess would be to dump the "Air" folder.
