[FIXED] Sonar detection range under B936.17

Post by acidtekno »

Hello
It looks like passive sonar range has been significantly reduced in last builds. I've attached a test scenario to illustrate the problem:
Side BLUE has Los Angles sub patrolling at 5kts. Side RED has two Victor subs: fist one is traveling at 5kts and the second one at 30kts (cavitating). Note that all subs are on the same side of layer.
BLUE sub detects both Victors at the range of 7-7,5NM.

Passive sonar range appears to be much reduced compared to earlier builds. I recreated an identical setup under B775.12 and i got very different ranges: Victor traveling at 30kts was detected at 14,7NM and Victor traveling at 5kts was detected at 14.1NM.

The attached scenario has been created in B936.17

Regards
Ksawery

Thanks a lot! There was indeed a typo in the calculation of the reverberations modifier which caused the actual direct-path ranges to be reduced.

Fixed for the next update.
