Default Super planes?

Okay, while playing in 1945 on German side with the OM mod installed, I'm off the English coast, laying on the bottom, to save batteries, in a traffic choke point waiting for targets and then it happens...BOOOM a plane has found me! I'm at 80 metres depth so it shouldn't be possible to actually see me like when at periscope depth, I emit no signals what so ever and very little noise...what the h.... is going on!? This happens all the time!....even when crusing silently at 100 metres + air planes manage to find me and throw depth charges at me. Is the use of sonar bouys and MAD detectors simulated in SHIV? If so then I understand, if not then this phenomenon really puzzles me

Gotta be the mod and it is not very realistic at all.

yep, he made life hell for you to simulate the success rates we had over uboats but if you want to tone it down some then do this.


uninstall op monsun and open it up to find the data / Cfg folder and open the airstrike.cfg file found there. (save a backup of the file somewhere)

now copy these values into your op monsun mods airstrike cfg.

Poor Airbase Modifier=0.5
Novice Airbase Modifier=0.75
Competent Airbase Modifier=1
Veteran Airbase Modifier=1
Elite Airbase Modifier=1
Night Modifier=0.01



this should keep the high number of planes (they are controlled in the values found below these) which is correct to have but tone down some of their superhuman abilities lol.

you see what to do so if you dont like the change try your own numbers but always compare it to stock to see how much you are changing something.
