Sonar Contacts
I've doubled my contacts by listening to sonar more. I always listen to sonar when my compuer slows down because I can hear the targets long before my sonarman will call a contact, but I'm finding on average I can pick them up 10-15NM's before my sonar man will. I was in my patrol zone and PC wasn't even slowing down and I picked up a convoy 20nm's away.
I would almost call this a bug. If I can hear the contacts my sonarman should. I even get a green light and it will be another 5nm's before he calls out a contact. So many times on patrol, near the star where I never found anything, but now listening ever so often I'm finding those targets I missed before by taking sonar myself.
So I do it all the time now, doesn't matter if I think something is near, PC slows down, ect. Just get in a strait, shipping lane and you'll get more hits if you listen more.
