Don't be surprised if all of a sudden after the reload they spot you much sooner (or later) than before. The distance is not a set value, even if all the parameters are the same, but rather a variable. I've come to think the game rolls a dice after a set distance, something like a Spot Check in D&D. If it fails the roll, you continue on unobserved. If it passes, they got you. This check is being rolled (with increasing odds on the AI's behalf as you get closer), until they finally spot you...and then you grab that d20 and start rolling Saving Throws like crazy!
