Default SH4 Sonar Plug-In?

Any mods to get sonar to give an actual range instead of just saying long or short range?

I wish.... I mean we can understand when it comes from the hydrophone.. but whats the point of a radar if you dont get any useful info from it. Personnally I ask sonar guy to estimate distance to target. I dont know if it is working out of visual range thought i just started playing.

Mods? I don't know.

Stock game:

Red: Click to ping the target.
Green: Read range here.
Blue: Send range to TDC. I'm not sure if this also updates bearing.
