Create: Radar Waterline

Add configurable water restrictions to Create: Radars. Submerged radio antennas stop acquiring contacts, and fully submerged targets are hidden from ordinary radar by default.

Build coastal surveillance stations, surface ships and submarines where antenna placement matters.

Features

• Submerged antennas stop working. Radio radar cannot acquire or refresh contacts while its antenna receiver is underwater
• Underwater targets require sonar. Fully submerged entities and supported Sable vessels are filtered from ordinary radar, even when the scanning radar is above water
• Raised radar masts work. Moving dishes are checked at their receiver feeds, allowing an exposed antenna to operate above a submerged mount
• Surface ships remain eligible. Target checks consider vessel bounds, so a ship is not hidden simply because its center is underwater
• Radar warnings and locks follow the same rules. Submerged antennas stop reporting radar emissions, and underwater target restrictions also apply to warning receivers and lock checks
• Built-in sonar stays available. Create: Radars 5’s native sonar keeps its underwater detection behavior and can share contacts through existing radar networks
• Configurable underwater cabin checks. An optional overhead-water check restricts antennas inside dry submerged compartments

Why use it with Create: Radar 5.0?

Radar 5 introduces sonar, Sky Radar height restrictions and optional underwater automatic-targeting limits. Ordinary radar can still detect submerged contacts within its scan volume, and the automatic-targeting depth setting does not cover Sable vessels or disable immersed antennas.

Waterline adds those water-specific restrictions while preserving native range, field of view, terrain occlusion and sonar behavior.

Pair it with CC: Waterline for underwater wireless restrictions and acoustic ComputerCraft communication.
