[WIP] D6 AI Detection

Was up until 3am trying to slip away from 2 escorts. Was RTB in the channel at night and had a head on collision with a escorted convoy - too close to sidestep, so I went to 70m ( in ~95) and dead stopped. An escort passed by about 500m and at about 300 degrees flashed searchlight, turned and dropped charges right on me. It has been down hill from there, I thought I was going to get away a couple times, but end up catching their attention.

They seem to be -really- good at nailing my position and heading down and if it werent for bad guesses on depth I would be toast already. Currently playing possum about 3m off the bottom. Judging by drop locations they are uncertain where I am now, but definately know where I was last...

Down to 46% hull, 5% CO2, still have two tails. If I can't break surface by daylight I am toast.

Damage seems a little light, but for playability seems acceptable. Given the (too?) rapid buildup of CO2, I would not be inclined to bump radius or damage too much at current sensor settings. The window for escape and survival seems pretty small as is.

Thanks.
