Hmm, I've never had to set anything in a config file for the "auto slowdown" of time compression to kick in when something gets spotted. Mine always drops to 8x when radar/sonar/visual contact is made, and from there I have time to get back to 1x before anything bad happens. Maybe I have an option set for that somewhere and it's been so long I forgot.
I find that usually once I get within 200 miles of a patrol destination, air patrol activity gets so frequent that I can't sustain any extended periods of high TC anyway, at least during the day. Then again I was surprised once to have picked up an H6K almost 800 miles east of Honshu with nothing else around. Once I'm "on station" there's usually enough ship activity to preclude wanting to go too high anyway.
