I found the cfg file that affects this and changed the range of radio contacts from 250 to 100k and the important contacts(Convoys/task forces) from 750 to 250K
I also found the setting that effects range of visibility and after changing it my initial ship sightings on a clear day went from about 14500m to 8500m. Plus I reduced airstrike probability from 35 to 20. Left my hydro alone, because I like to use it myself and the reduced visibility and radio sightings should have a big effect.
Tested out a Sept 1939 mission from Kiel in a typeII. In a mission to grid AN47 (Not a great grid for ships) I found i neutral merchant and that was it. So I got skunked. Perfect, never got skunked before. I think the contacts may be as I like them now because things will pick up in early 1940 and once in a typeVIIB I will have access to better patrol grids.
I'll run at least 8 missions with it and see how it goes compared to real life tonnage during the same period in the same sub.
