Aircraft Issues

[propbeanie]

No mods that turn off the planes (yet) that I remember. There are a couple that will alter what you encounter, but their names slip my mind right now. You could go to the download section and read through some of the ReadMe files of what's listed, and see if you can find one. You could also try a site search for airplane behavior.

What "mode" are you playing the campaign game in (Easy, Normal, Hard, etc.)? The Patrols & Single Missions don't have settings like that, but are more and/or less difficult based upon the scenario.

Are you running with any other mods right now? Where are you with your boat when you encounter all the planes? They can come from land-based and ship-based locations (naturally). If the sea is relatively calm, it's daylight, and you cruise around on the surface, or even at periscope depth at times, they will find you. Once they find you, they will "track" you. If they find you two or more times, they basically have you pegged as to where you are, and where you can be in a given time, to try and find you again. Subs can only go so fast...

Have you read any of the "avoidance" posts or watched vids like ? There's a text and picture tutorial, where you draw a circle (of which I forget the dimensions of) and you use that to figure out how close a plane can get to you before you dive. It uses radar too. Also, you do have to be careful of your time compression, especially after they've found you the first time. Don't try to duke it out with 'em though. Don't let 'em see you.
