Is this new? Since
Kriegsmarine, perhaps? I had not noticed it before now, while working on a sea battle scenario. Nice feature.

I'm reasonably sure that was in the very first release
We didn't want to force you to ping sonars manually for every DD that hasn't moved/attacked yet at the end of a turn (cos there is no reason NOT to).

Wow. Honestly, that is the first time that I ever noticed my own sonar-equipped ships would do this automatically if i just left them alone for a turn. I was too busy
moving them every turn! Or pinging away manually.

Should there be a sound and animation during automatic sonar sweep at the end of the turn? I do not have neither sound, nor animation, so I assumed it doesn't work...
I didn't even have the tutorial message on this

Do you have animation and sound during automatic sweep? I leave my destroyers idle for eternity, and there is no automatic sonar sweep - at least neither animation, nor sound

Yes, I have my doubts as well but I trust in what adherbal said.

So I guess it's done, just without animation. Thanks
Although, confirmation from adherbal that it's done, just without any indication, would be nice...

Yes the sound & visual effect is only played when manually pinging.
