Using the Trados Studio 2015 SR2 API, searching for segments does not always return a result, although the translated segment result is already in Trados and can be seen in the GUI.
If the segment is updated (has a newer date), it will be found again over the API call.

How can I influence the API call to return the segment regardless of age?

                                SearchSettings settings = new SearchSettings();

                                settings.MaxResults = 1;

                                settings.MinScore = 100;

                                settings.Mode = SearchMode.NormalSearch;

                                settings.FindPenalty(PenaltyType.FilterPenalty);

                                SearchResults results = Connector.serverTM.LanguageDirections[languageDirection].SearchText(settings, currentTextToBeTranslated);
