I am aware that the game awards renown based only on tonnage and realism, but I remember being able to switch from my IIA tipe to IID or maybe VII in 4 or 5 patrols.
If this continues, I will be (if I amb lucky), stuck with my IIA until my 10th or 11th patrol, if and only if I do not update my boat (I remember the VII being price at 2.500).
Is this normal? I am missing something?
Thanks and good hunt!

Using renown to buy new equipment is not realistic. You can edit the basic config file to remove this.
NYGM mod does this.
What I do is to remove renown for equipment and personnel upgrades, and then use the renown to track my progress in the war until I get sunk (I have never been able to finish the war (DID+100%)
I find this a better solution for the problem rather than editing the saved game files to increase renown.
