Zig zags every 5 minutes?

Okay, this is aggravating, and I think a real realism killer. My understanding of convoys is they zig zaged at most every half hour. I am encountering convoys that are doing so every 5 minutes. This is making getting a bead on them impossible.

I am running Magnum Opus only. Is there any way I can stop this lunacy? I would think a real convoy doing this would run into one another. This would have been a fantastic tactic against the real U-boats that is for sure.

By the time I get into a good firing position, and get my eels going, the convoy steers away.

How is the change course interval set?
