I do not use the RUB mod,because i want to play the game as a game ,but from what i have seen,the best way to avoid destroyer attacks is:
-Always patrol in areas with deep water ,so that you can dive to your maximum depth.
-When spotted,i dive at flank speed to gain depth,at aroud 70 m i decrease to silent running and turn my course so that the DD may do a false attack based on my old course.
-When depth charges explode i do brief flank speed runs and steer hard to the opposite side from that from which i expect the charges (watching the course of the DD in the sonar room and using headphones is very helpful to predict the pattern of the charges and so to decide whether to steer left or right).
-As soon as the sound of depth charges start fading,i go back to silent running and 1 knot speed changing course according to the sonarman's lines ,trying to predict the circle that the DD will do next.
Most times you can escape like that.
