I had to wake them up with the flak. with GWX16km live is much harder.
Were these tests carried out using single missions or a campaign? And were they carried out on a single convoy (reload same save over and over) or different convoys?

In a campaign I assure you some 1941 destroyers will spot you. Others will not.

I think you need to carry out some more tests before you draw such conclusions.

I'm a programmer by profession (for 10 years) but I had to do lots of trial and error and lots of testing to work out how things work in SH3. It took a long time.

Do some more 1941 tests in campaign mode and I assure you, you will be spotted by some of the DDs.
