The use of a limit was discused time ago, to simulate a thermal layer or a behavior similar.

Sadly we have not thermal layers modelated, almost nobody found anithing about them.

Just another choice, but you will be completely undetected under that value, it can reduce the game play interest.... :hmm:

I first noticed something was up when i was testing the AI on the U505 mission. I sat there about about 325-350 meters watching the depth charges for accuracy and i noticed right before they got to my depth they just disappared. Another big hint was when i just stopped getting contact information on the map.

I tried changing this, but their accuracy only seemed to get WORSE. TO me diving deep and pushing the boat to the absolute limit to try and get under a DD attack is half the thrill. "Deep cheif... yes deeper."
But being absolutely untouchable just kills the thrill.

I guess its a matter of scale. Longer DC drops, larger explosions,....shorter DC drops smaller explosions. Its easier to scale back the Depth charge experience then it is to ramp it up, which is what ive been trying to do. Too many AI adjustments are required. Too much work.
