First, never use time compression when near the enemy. In time compression, the computer takes shortcuts, including detection check shortcuts. Boats that will never see you will spot you under TC. In rough seas at night merchant ships will spot a torpedo wake if you use time compression to cut the wait time to impact. Don't use it.
Second, the AI warships seem to be able to automatically detect you anytime they get withing 300 or 400 yards of you, no matter what. Keep your distance at least 500 yards away from any warship.
