@ Trevally - I had to edit your aiplane test mission to remove the ships so there were only airplanes in it. Radar operator nailed the airplane from a good distance out. He was all over him once he detected him. Never lost that green line!

Just tested v1.046

Radar warning spotted radar signals from a plane 7 to 8km out.
My TC dropped from from 128 to 8 (this is the setting for plane spotted) so crew could tell it was a plane from the radar signal (speed of movment I guess)

The aeroplane patrol route was set to be few few km away so I did not worry about it.
Boom!
It attacked me - when did you fix this
Planes set direct on map with patrol routes do not normally attack.
This is good news for The Bay Of Biscay in the campaign

So I had to shoot down the plane (my radar warning crew could follow it).

Moved north and my PC did a stutter as I loads ships.
Taskforce spotted me (by radar) 20 to 30km away and raced straight at me.
When at 8km - my radar warning let me know.
TC dropped from 128 to 32 (my ship setting)
I manned the deck gun and died soon after

7 to 8km seems to be the max distance my radar warning can detect signals.
Aeroplane and ship radars look like they can spot me from 20 km.
Would this be correct or should we detect signals from radar at the same range as the ships can send them?

Anyway great work TDW
