Default 1.03 patch )beta)

I just downloaded 1.03 and with it the realism mod....just made a little test scenario and still, sub sails (partially surfaced) are STILL undetectable by AI radar or visual....

Is the "official " patch going to address this?

thanks

No changes regarding mast and sail detectability from 1.01...

In fairness to SCS, and you can take my word on this, it would require a massive overhaul of code, so I understand why it hasn't been done in patch.

Perhaps for DW2.

Thats a shame...I did'nt think it would be such a big deal.....just allow radar to detect with increasing probability sail versus masts with greater probabilty with decreased distance, I am not a programmer, but a simple formula is all that is needed... :hmm:

Also, it works fine when one is flying the P-3 or the MH 60, then even periscopes are detected..... :hmm:

Ok, so if I understand well, we can detect it with aircraft, but not with the ship??

Yes, hopefully they can do something about it. Are we sure it will not be in the official 1.03.

It is so unfair for the surface community.

Please please...
