The work is easy (no manual targeting) and I sunk about 50000 tons from 3 convoys (early 1943).
I use this tactics always, but I find that the game is slightly boring, before the mod I had more difficulties to find convoys, now I'm plenty of convoys. I was attacked by 2 DD for about 3 hours, but no damages from them, fortunately they had a reduced sonar angle. In the instock game you had no chance to escape from 2 DD. Anyway the mod worked fine for me.

I didn't mess with the convoy spawn values, just the report probabilities and contact times. In '43 you should be getting reports quite a bit less often. The escort AI has been reduced, so you aren't likely to find more than 50-75% veteran in '43 for some convoys. Many are 50% veteran in '43.
Which convoys did you engage? What were the escort numbers? By '43 you ought to be seeing 5 escorts minimum for most convoys.
Perhaps the AI sonar has been nerfed too far?
More playtest reports are needed.
