Sonarman not automatically detecting sounds

If it was possible to correct, someone would have done it by now.

I would say just don't do manual hydrophone sweeps, until after your crew detects something.

I believe the RFB team was well aware of the issue, but lacked any means to fix it. I imagine Ducimus (of TMO fame) knew about it just as well.

My negative feedback was due to two thing:

1 There was really a bug but it solved as i reinstalled just some mods (specially with TMO).
2 After the reinstall, i immediately jumped to RFB full time (practically for the first time). IMO in TMO all sensors work much better both in theory (specs) and in practice. In TMO both me and the AI can hear from a much bigger distance even higher than the sonar spec.
