Definitely a big improvement, but I am going to use the verboten three letters: AOD.

Zig-zags took place at least every three hours and sometimes in just 30 minutes if the Sun happened to set right after a zig. There is nothing more frustrating, then to spend five hours to overhaul a convoy and then another two hours positioning as a convoy approaches; when your targets are still 10km away, they all start to zig and begin to move away from your prepared ambush. It really can be very frustrating.

Of course, the problem with AOD's implementation is that the base course quickly becomes obvious and the zig-zags are symmetric of about 30-45 degrees. So, you learn in overhauling to anticipating the zig. Thus, you position yourself on the surface in anticipation of the zig. When it does happen, the convoy zigs right into you. This gives adequate time to hit the convoy despite its evasive maneuvers.
