The broken halves sometimes sink wrongly but an entire ship will sink correctly about 95% of the time. If you torpedo a modded ship's bow it will sink with the stern in the air. If you hit it to starboard then it will list and capsize to starboard, especially if you raise the center of gravity with SH3 Commander.

Right this minute I am building a modern tanker, and it so happens that the ship halves DO sink correctly. It seems completely random, if they work right or not.

And yes, the modern-looking containers are a little annoying. They also tend to get in the way of cranes & deck fixtures - I usually disable them on my installation by setting them to NULL in the Cargodef.cfg file.
