Can This Be A Work Around For The 8 KM Visibility?

Yes, they are for your subs crew. Interesting file btw. Much in there to play around.
My goal is to make them spot vessles when they are visible to the player.
I have a career savegame where iÂ´m closing to a convoy early in the morning.
With the stock file the crew spots at 17500 meters but you see the vessel at around 10000 meters. (morning, sunset).
Edit:
Just did a test with the scapa flow single mission with good results.
Patrol started at dawn, i set course hammerd in time compression and waited for results:
1. DD spotted by my crew 1 hour later, range 6000, little daylight left he didnÂ´t saw me.
2. DD spotted by my crew after another hour, range 4500 meter, almost no daylight left, he didnt saw me.
3. DD 1 hour later, night has fallen,recognized him when he opened fire at my sub :P , not spotted by my crew at all.

Sounds good to me, will do more testing.
It seems that you have good control over your crews ability to spot something at night/dusk/dawn with the "Visual light factor" value.
I guess something around 8 here is a good value.

Edit:
8 is to high, perhaps 6-7 will be ok.
Anyone knows if thereÂ´s a single mission with bad fog in?
