lower values than 1 make it harder for AI to detect you

So, i don't know if sh5 sim.cfg work the same way as sh4, but about first thing, as i undestand, if "1" do nothing and number more then 1 reduces signal, then numbers < 1 increase signal by the way of multiplication. But Ducimus wrote in hes manual about hydrophone section that "waves factor is your standard enviormental handycap. 0.5 being quite the handycap, 0.95 being barely a handycap at all." So, for waves, following him, less number = more handycap (reduction, as i understand, yes?), and, if take into consideration what in sh5, same for height factor.

And if follow exactly another Ducimus phrase about visual settings " Fog/light/wave factors. Think of them as enviormental dampeners, or how much the enviorment handicaps the AI. Smaller the number the less the handycap, the larger the number, the more the handycap." there are addition for visual settings, becouse else number < 1 gave more handycap, not less, or numbers > 1 gave more...

So, initially, i thought about addition or multiplication, and looked at the most settings for sh4, i thought that here addition for visual and multiplication for others, what looks strange... But now i don't know. I'm trying to open SHSim.act becouse read that there are some information about formulas, but сonsidering my poor knowledge about programming, don't think it will help.

About mod list, now i installed KSD-II with heavily modified OMEGU environment and there are:

Waves amplitude=0.7
Waves attenuation=0.06

what different from OM as i see... But later may be i will play FotRSU, dunno what i will change, but environment for sure.

Ahh okay, you are in the ATO. That is a whole different ball game. Aside from .cfg settings, the individual sensor type equipped and the range/sensitivity settings on those sensors, if set to 0.0 in the file, they use settings in the sim.cfg but other numbers in file, they take from their own .sim files. The settings for Allied units, esp in the ATO are going to be much different than IJN in order to provide the different experience of Allied escorts and technology vs Japanese.

This would explain your scope being spotted often, as while it has been a while, I recall my scope being spotted often even with great exposure discipline.
