What you are trying to do may be some sort of balancing. Evan the professional experts or Game-developers (not only SH3) can fail and are failed on this.

There are alot of discussions on this topic, which i cant remember all. A short search on Subsim brings some results:

for SH4 but also relevant for SH3 (without thermal layer)

Keep in mind, that changing the Environment can also have unwanted results to Sensors. For example visual sensor are relying on light and ambient-light.

This Game-balancing, once started, is an ongoing never ending process.

Greetings.

Yes, all true, thanks. It'd be to much work anyway; lots of things to change.


I've always got a kick out of someone thinking the AI, escorts, etc. in the game are uber, tough, whatever.
I have the feeling those that think so, do things that make the AI seem tough even when they're not.
I.e., hang around watching their torpedo, being at shallow depth and wondering why they get sunk, engaging every aircraft they run across, etc.
They must never have played AOD; that AI was much tougher <g>.


I find the 1939-1942 ai a cakewalk if one uses realistic tactics, etc.


Thanks for the reply !
