I actually have a save point, playing cams and saves this patrol, so will try a night suface when I play again, group should be easy to find, but I may have designed it with loops. Was using the radar fix, not sure how they got me at 5nms, it maybe that my decks awash I stay up enough to keep engines on and crew on deck, yea, I know I could go a lil deeper and take advantage of the bug where I can still use binocs, but I feel if the crew is off decks, then I should be.

Think I will try a long range night surface attacks, maybe 7000 yards, but it will be in no more than 100 ft of water. Course I could also dive knowing it's course, not get found on radar and shoot from the deeper water about 6000 yards. My main interest is watching how different elite rated escorts attack.

I included a lot of China coast traffic like this for the challange, the hard part is each group contains elite rated escorts. I also reworked several settings, thermals are a tad more in my favor as is silent running, but just a tad, but my boat is more fragile to damage, plus I think I have the escorts hunt time changed to 1.5 hours instead of 30 minutes.
