Thanks for pointing that out.

Yeah, I'm aware of this. I toned down enemy air patrol response upon detection in v2.4. I think it was a bit too much, so in v2.5 there will be an increase in response again.

Trav,

Yea, it really increases visuals and really causes a lot of reflection on sub, ships, wake, etc. The following SS I really pumped it up and crew was spotting the enemy at 5nms at night. I think this was a value of SunSkyInfluence of 75.

This one is a value of 60 and more more blur to clouds and more light in the clouds, probably more realistic than just a big bright circle around the moon.

Anyway, it will take a lot of tweaking to adjust sensors, not sure if you can add moonlight and tweak visuals down enough for close in surface attacks when the moon is out, but maybe that's more historic. Also be cool to add a moon phase chart tab....

Anyway, bet it would look cool with your clouds. IMO, when moon is out, there should be moonlight and some light on cloud effects, more than the mere halo texture.

If anyone can figure it out....you can.....

Actually as December 41 rolled on, started getting quite a few planes, including a Mavis with with torpedoes instead of bombs of depth charges. Still no planes in Celebes Sea, close to the Philippine Islands at the chokepoint between Celebes Sea and Molucca Passage. I look forward to the update, just letting you know.

Hmm ill try it again, doesnt show anything overwriting it.
