I basically use GWX with a 20k environment and have no real issues with the frequency of contacting ships or convoys. If I have not had much luck going to and patrolling my assigned grid, then I consult the flotilla.cfg file for that month and choose another grid either by closest grid to my location or random choice. It pays to submerge for several hours per day in transit to and from grids. I have modified the fatigue system to allow me to rotate crew on a semi-weekly basis (in addition to situational conditions) which makes most of the crew problematic at functioning around the length of time that particular type of boat spent on patrol historically. Also, I edited out that huge annoying red exclamation point which I don't need. I have already provided a copy of my fatigue files in an earlier post . After conducting many patrols, I find I run short on both torps and supplies (fatigue) without having to stress about how long it took or about managing crew. By the way, I love the Just Follow Orders Mod. I have integrated it into the game automatically mostly via SH3 Commander. Also, I have looked at the Onealex megamod and it seems similar except for the fatigue system, so the method of finding ships should not be that different.
