I knew you could not stay away. I also wanted to attract your attention to this thread:

I presume the fact that we can now "see" the escort's detection range will make it easier to tweak its effectiveness.

Thanks! Will have a try.

Good project. Will give this a shot - if indeed there is complex scripts for AI behaviour, I think we're in for a treat in the long run with this mod

Yup. That's what acutally helped me figure out that some of the numbers work differently in SH5. Depending on the numbers you input, (and what you do in game) you can watch the detection range get smaller or bigger.


Just FYI, i don't expect huge drastic changes with this initial release. All i did was tweak the sim.cfg for now. Im not going too deeply into this just yet, cause the game has another 3 patch's to go if track records still hold true for ubi.

I will test it out this weekend.

[Ducimus]

Updated.

As sonar goes, we're cooking with gas now!

Toss the old file, this ones much better

It is the only mod he is doing... until of course he see's THAT thing that he can fix easily, and oh yeah, THAT too... and may as well do THAT while he is at it..

Just teasing, Ducimus..
thank you for working to make SHV better!

Nope, this will be the only mod i publish. Im only doing this one because i feel it's the area im most confident in, know whats involved, so there isn't going to be alot of "research" involved in getting things to work. I already know what this mod will encompass when its done.

- sim.cfg tuning
- AI_sensor tunning
- Creation of new visual sensor for aircraft
- depth charge adustments
- depth charge splash warning
- sonar ping sound



Ive done a good bit of that already, but no where near done. This is going to require alot of fine tuning. Right now, all ive really done, is hit the AI's sensors with a sledgehammer in order to knock the rust loose and get it moving. Visuals will need ALOT more work, I think i might lower the max elevation on the first two active sonars to 130 instead of 120, and may have to recalibrate hydrophones, as they might be too sensitive atm.

Jokes aside, this is pretty awesome, and we're grateful you're taking the time to make it right.

[Ducimus]

Would be nice to hear from a couple.
Regardless if your getting slapped around like a red headed step child, or still getting away with bloody murder and nothing seems to have changed from stock, i'd like to hear about it.

I am using this and will report in when I get my shat together a little more. Still trying to learn other aspects of the game, plus deal with bugs....
