That's gonna make running patrols to the Caribbean a bit long. --wry grin--

Yes TC DOES influence how many air attacks you may receive.
Even low TC does... just not as bad as high TC.
Anything above 256x TC virtually eliminates air attacks.
The short explaination: computational lag by the SH3 engine created by each increment of TC allows units to zip by you without ever seeing you. The opposite is true also.

Okies. Thanks.
Odd as this might sound

but I'd rather run at the lower compression to keep the chances of air encounters 'real'. But that's a killer on those gawdawful transatlantic jaunts. Are there reasonable points when heading cross-Atlantic (or, for that matter, down to the tip of Africa) where running at higher compression won't 'cheat'? Much as I dislike air encounters --grins-- I also don't want to be driving my boat 'claoked' from them either.
