What do people think about these effectively digital ranges?
Ideally whether or not one is observed should be a very low base chance per minute, increasing or decreasing with:
Lighting
Being silhouetted
Surfacing or Diving
Aspect (side on or pointed at the viewer)
Height
Gun-flashes
Weather
Observer being alerted to a U-boats position
...and so forth.
In other words if you can see the convoy, then you're not utterly safe from observation at any range, or any light-level etc. Instead in disadvantageous conditions for the AI observer eg night, fog you can be pretty sure of being unobserved, but not completely certain...
