Escort A.I. Discussion

Can those of you who find the escort AI to be aggressive and fun tell me what your difficulty settings are?

I have it set at hard. The find me and circle dropping DC. I had one chase me at night. It gave up and went back to the convoy. I attempted to sneak in again. It must have been on alert because it spotted me again. The escort in some of the convoys I have found are not that aggressive.

I know it says , "GWX's AI" but it's also really an explanation on how the AI works in SH3. I dont expect SH4 will be much different excepting with the addition of thermal layers.

As to adjusting the AI (something which i tend to do), im not gonna bother until i get more ingame experience with it to see if its too good or too dumb. I suspect it is probably too dumb, but im giving it a chance first.

i dont get them, they use laser guided anti sub weapons to nail me under the thermal layer.
and just before i surfaced next to one, and shot the hell out of it, and it never did a damn thing.

surely somethings not working properly here ?
