For example, if it were set at 32 (the default) then when a ship is spotted I will know whether or not it is an enemy ship, even from 16km, just by trying to go high on the TC while shadowing it. Setting this TC the same as the max TC forces me to check the flag.

Even then it's hard to avoid that tell-tale slowing down that SH3 exhibits whenever there is a ship or convoy near by.

TBH though, apart from the two TC settings listed above (I set both to 4096 because sometimes I just need to hurry things up), my approach is exactly the same as yours.
