Like MONLOITH, I've been trying a more sonar-centric approach lately (trying to do an early sugar boat career mimicing early war tactics) and this sound needs to be able to be heard.

I've been from 1000 yards to 5000 yards to the sinking target and at periscope depth all the way down to 200 feet at various times and not heard this sound while at the sonar station. Like everyone else said, the green light comes on, but no sound. I'm pointing the hydrophone head right at the sinking ship and hearing nothing. Switch to the free cam and 'fly' over there and I can hear the sound.

I do have realistic sound travel on, maybe I'll try turning that off to see if I pick up anything.
