I find it strange that a convoy would return to course and regroup a fast as they do in 1.5.

I’m attacking a small convoy of 4 ships with no escort and manage to hit one of the vessels and sink it. The rest all turn tail and run away from my position as expected and I surface and give pursuit. After a few I stop chasing them and return to the original location and proceed on their original course for about 12 hours and stop. Waiting long enough I receive contact again and it’s the same group less the one I sank, rinse and repeat until I sink 3, then I just deck gun the last one.

You would think that a convoy that was attacked twice would alter its course for some time to evade detection again.
