Default Deck Watch isn't really watching for anything...

Hi guys,
I decided to give SH5 another try after several failed attempts. I came across STOIANMs Youtube videos about installing mods and decided to give it another go. I'm all patched up with SH3 style UIs and excited. I get ll the to the British coastline and am using TC with travel mode deselected. I figured it would give me the best chance to spot a ship and have time to dive. Not so much. TC1 occurred only after I was rammed and shot up by a destroyer. Never a word from my deck watch. Am I missing something?

Default

MyDocuments\SH5\data\cfg\main (copy and paste)
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=1,32
CriticalDamage=1,32
CrewEfficiency=256
AirEnemyDetected=1,32
SoundEffects=8
CharacterAnim=32
FriendDetected=1,32
EnemyDetected=1,32
RadioReport=1,32
Particles=32
PrayState=1,32
HunterState=1,32
3DRender=32
Maximum=256,32

Also if using TDW ui mod you can look in the options file found here .
NewUIs_TDC_6_6_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Scripts\Menu \TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py

Change this line to True
##################################### Message Box (SH3/4/5 modes) ####################################
# do we go to TC1 on any messagebox text?
# change below to either True or False
TC1OnAnyMessageBoxText = True

You can disable it in game by a button next to the TC buttons on the top panel .

I believe the 32 number in the "Maximum=256,32" line is set to low.

Should the second value, the one for travel mode, look more like this =256,7680? (Not sure of the stock value.)

Hey guys, thanks for the info, will be nice to change some of these.

Maybe Im just slow, but some of the "options" dont make much sense to me.

CrewEfficiency=128 ?
PrayState=8,32 ?
HunterState=8,32 ?

If any of you guys have any idea what these would control Id sure love to know, they dont make much sense to me right now.
