Its possible the convoy didn't see you
i think its because they heart your engine noise, when your even on silent speed and you are just about 500m away, the escorts still hear you
(you using your Diesel engines, what makes more noise than elektric)
Its because of that i think they know your there,
even when you are at 15m or 40m depth, they still hear you. Perhaps you can go to periscope depth, and try to get closer to a freighter
and try to stay as far away from any destroyer's.
Yesterday i attacked a convoy, i was about 700m away from the nearest destroyer.
i changed to silent speed, and i saw he spotted me the nanosecond after that
Are you using the IRAI mod ? because with this one used
escorts and freighters are much ''smarter" in game.
