thermal layer

The psychic crew member will announce to you when that layer is being passed.

In real life a gizmo was used to measure the water temprature outside the ship. When there was a dramatic shift 10 to 20 degrees it could be assumed that a thermal layer had been passed.

Wether or not these gizmos were available for fleet boats is another topic for discussion.

I personally have no idea.

The layers are modeled in the game to some degree but basically just lowers your sound and sonar return signatures.
