Does this mod work from 2024? One of the necessary mods for the game.

I encountered a lone C3 freighter crossing the atlantic at 19kn

According to the manual they only go up to 16.5kn

I have the scale at 30%-110%, but I think that the result should be clamped to the max speed of ships

Well, just thought it would be awesome if the knots vary, but still stay in range of the historical values of the related convoys.
But it's probably very hard to do so I was just thinking out loud I guess. :)

Are you posting on the mod you meant to dreepa?

Uboat expanded is the one that adds more convoys and focuses on historical accuracy.

This mod as far as I can tell just allows for variability in convoy speed so a guess of "7 knots" isn't always accurate.

It would be awesome, if you can take a look at this, and incorporate it into your mod. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Allied_convoys_during_World_War_II_by_region
