paid the price ... now i have to understand what mod allows me to have decoys

Operation Weserubung?!
No, you shouldn't have decoys at all in 1940. Hitting the decoy launch button should only give you a sound clip about being out of decoys. I do not know of any bugs that cause that. Do you have multiple campaigns running? There is no way without a specific mod or hand editing that you should have decoys.
Looking at your mods, there is nothing that should give you decoys early. You have most of the critical mods.
Blowing ballasts to get to periscope depth is tricky because this burns compressed air and the boat may have too much positive buoyancy to avoid broaching the surface before control is regained. Broaching the surface is
bad.
Controlled ascents are much better. If the target is in a critical zone and one cannot ascend fast enough, it is better to plot a tack course, in relation to the target, or temporarily break off until they are far enough out to plot a better intercept course. The tack course will help close the distance despite being slower submerged and can offer both a brief advantage (Tacking eventually fails if the target is significantly faster or if your position is too far leeward) that may buy enough time for a controlled ascent.
