[REL] Shoot at periscope

Okay, decided to change this to a REL rather than TEC. I've been using this for some time now without problems so here goes:

This is a work-around to get enemy ships to shoot at your periscope when they notice it. There is a bug in the exe-file that prevents this happening normally. To fix this issue once and for all, it would need hex-editing, currently this is the next best thing.

What it does:

Now merchants and escorts will fire at you with cannons if they spot your periscope, or have other sensors showing that you are nearby and close to the waterline.

Known issues:

-Sometimes escorts continue to fire the last know sub location too long.
-Ships can hit friendly ships accidentally with cannons.
