Well, as the AI visuals are going, for now, im tossig in the towel. I could go into this big long speil, but suffice to say, the AI visual detection is just F**king depressing.

I can't get it to spot a periscope at an apporpriate range without making it ultra uber when your on the surface, and by toning down so AI surface ship detection is a little harder, but not uber, the AI can't see periscopes anymore, and planes ability to detect you still remains crappy. Balance for one, spork the other.

I think the only real answer is extra visual nodes like NYGM did for sh3. I suspect that AI _sensors.dat could work for SH4, but its going to be alot of work to rewrite all the SNS files to use it. Im not putting forth that much work until i know for sure Sh3 is getting another patch or not.

As for the visuals applied to this mod next release. I increased the light factor so night surface attacks should be easier (from 2 to 5), brought he wave factor back up to 1, and lowered the detection time from 30 seconds (0.5 ) to 20 seconds (0.4).

My hope is that aircrafts belated detection is a result of the 30 second detection time, which admitdily for an aircraft is alot, as it can cover a good distance in 30 seconds.
:hmm: come to think of it, i might lower that down to 15.
