Oops, forgot the file name of the config file.

As for how far you want to get reports, it depends on how comfortable you are with doing long intercepts. In general it takes a target 170 km of forward movement before it's course uncertainty (+/- 11.25 degrees) can put it outside of your ultimate hydrophone range. (Self listening range 34 km ) You would want to be on the reported target course before that is reached by the target, or else he can pass by unnoticed. How much time you have for that depends on his speed, your maximum speed, and your approach direction. With a head-on intercept you can engage much more distant targets. But it can never hurt to get more rather then less reports. In the end it is up to you to make the choice of going after one. And you are not getting all the units in that range either. An icon is still shown based on a random probability. I see no danger of being over-powering.

I have both values at 750 km. I can't remember the exact difference in gameplay of the 2 values. But it has been talked about on the forum here in the past.
