Silent running doesn't really seem to matter much...but I do it anyway.
If you are trying to get into a convoy or task force stay silent and deep. Your sub can come back to periscope depth very quicky in SH4. In SH3 it was an agonizingly slow process with the targets often passing by,and out of range, before you made it up to shoot.
And if you master the sonar shooting technique..which I have not as yet...you don't even need to come all the way to periscope depth.

Well that's one thing i'm thinking of doing whenever I am moving into a firing position on a convoy or TF. Dive deep, and use hydrophones to listen to them and track their positions. Then when I'm in my desired range and hopefully past the screening escorts, slowly rise upto PD and make a solution, fire, and then dive deep.
Chances are it wouldn't be long before i'd be detected at PD based on past experience
