Greetings,

Depending where your patrol is located, there are convoy routes set along known allied travelled routes.
- There are maps posted "somewhere" that show these lanes that are routinely travelled. Depending on the year and what Countries are then involved.

- And keep looking at the Radio messages of other Subs, often near you but they (sub) can't attack for some reason.
- Getting heading and, if enabled, the map plot point is listed on the map. Look at the ship or convoy speed, # of ships. Decide if you can intercept.
- Your running out of fuel because you moving too fast, don't have 2 attendants for the chief Engine mechanic, And 2 for the Navigator. Both add a buff to your fuel usage.

Also when you get out in the wild(area your to patrol) do dives every 3-4 hours and let your Radioman pick up ship sounds on the Hydrophone. When he spots something YOU get on and listen--If you hear the Chug chug chug it is a Merchant ship-- Go get Some --If higher speed sounds then a WARSHIP- move along

What do you mean by "do dives every 3-4 hours"? like in the game or in RL?
I am asking this cuz there is no clock in the game?

Greetings,

There's a clock on the right side or the screen, also showing the day and night cycle.

Thank you all!

so what your saying is WHERE ARE THE BOATS?
answer: left lower corner of the UK, below and to the left of it, going from america to and from there and sailing up the big bit of water going north in the UK. there is basically ALWAYS ships there. just watch out for airplanes going to try to murderise you if your too close to land.

Greetings,

There is /are one or more mods that show historical convoy routes for the different time periods.
- If the game generates these convoys and time periods?

But having an idea where they were or there convergence points may help locate some convoys.

ok, but the patrols are to the lower left section of UK so do i do free roam?

My actual campaign: Mediterranean, July 27, 1943. Fascism collapsed, Sicily invaded since July 10, and nearly conquered by Allies, but no warships around Malta and Sicily. Med empty, only some Empire and Liberty freighters cruising alone (checked with "Detect 100" command).
I hope more activities would be spawned in a future patch.

ok, i will check after i play this game of HLL (Hell Let Loose)
