Yeah probably will if they are close enough I'd say. But im on my way to my patrol area now, and what've been doing just as I used to in SH3 is to ping the bottom at many areas, and making note of the shading of the map, and the depth readings I get and then I can pretty much tell by the shade of blue on the map at my location what the depth is likely to be. That way I dont have do any pinging once I make contact with an enemy.

It's kind of a study of the depths according to the map shading using the depth sounder while im still in safe waters before reaching an area I might run into an enemy contact. too bad we cant write things on the map, or you could as you do the depth checks just note it on the map what the depth was pinged at at different places along your route.
