Icon9 How To Deal With "Instant Detection" Scenarios?

After a buncha years I'm back into the Dangerous Waters (with RA mod)
I've been playing the Russian Rebellion campaign and am in mission 4: Qingdao (IIRC)
Regardless which 688 I chose, I get insta-detected and fired upon from multiple sources.
The orders say to stay at least 12nm from land, yet the missions open with me well under that. In one of them a mere 5nm. Not to mention 3nm for a Chinese sub, which immediately fires upon me.
I mean .....
I freakin HATE IT when missions stick me, upon starting, in a position I would NEVER have allowed myself to get into had I planned and executed my own approach from further out. So annoying. lol
Thanks.


I'll also get back to work on some custom missions. To wit: Operation Ivy Bells and Ice Station Zebra .... Those names may be familiar to some of you, for good reason eh.

What is great about the Sonalyst's series of games is that you don't have to play a mission one time. Even in a campaign, unless you're doing a speed run, there is always room to think.



RA is its own thing with its own issues. I guess the idea was that we had already played the old Sub Guru missions enough times to make them stale.
"Ivan" has made RA a lot tougher to win. Sometimes it bites him in the backside, but at least he's still trying.

Good topic, posted as Subsim News.

Definitely wake me when you have those scenarios made.
