On the other hand, when I placed regular Ranger tanker to lead the group instead of badass boat, the group was acted almost perfectly realistic (I've actually saw for the first time a battleship which really acts like that) . 
Further more , badass boat was still shown on the map as a "green" unit? 
Do you have similar findings?
I'll repeat same tests with your patch though... |
If the lifeboat-leader is shown as green there's just one possible explaination: wrong defsides settings. Check if there's any mistyping in the file. All the other problems with erratic convoy behaviour might come from there.

ConvoyRowSpacing=1000.000000
ConvoyColSpacing=500.000000
Almost perfect box formation with 500m (row/column) distance between merchants...Not a good news for our rectangular convoy plans...  |
So, apparently only ConvoyColSpacing (or the lesser between the latter and
ConvoyRowSpacing) is applied for both row and column distances
