For FotRSU, I use a bigger circle, due to the planes being more aggressive, and the bigger circle gives me a few more seconds to track them, and a few more seconds to get deeper. As in TMO, the planes can supposedly see your sub down to about 120 feet depending on circumstances. All that said, you might not have SD on that Sugar Boat, which complicates things a bit. If when you press the "T" key you see a text prompt in the crew's dialog box of "Turning on SD radar...", then you do have it. To turn it off, use the same "T" key, and you'll see a "Turning off SD" or similar. The NavMap displays the contacts it finds...
Alright will do, thanks for the info


Edit: using the SD Radar right now it allows me to dive before any harm can be done but it also directly "homes" every enemy plane exactly to my position. Still better than being surprised and bombarded I guess. Also will probably modify the airstrike.cfg.
