Periscope depth bug when loading saved game, plus 2nd Flotilla question

First off, I have the vanilla version off Steam (recently purchased) and it says version 1.4 at the bottom.

My problem is if I ever save a game at periscope depth, when I load the game again my boat appears at P-depth but it seems the game thinks I'm on the surface as I get loaded into surface cruise mode instead of what I saved it to, it's actually quite funny to go into F4 view under water and the crew are all standing on the conning tower under water as well, haha.

Any fixes?

Another question since I don't want to start a new thread, I'm playing in the 2nd flotilla and currently am using a VIIB at the beginning of 1941 with 3 patrols finished. Will I automatically be upgraded to a IXB at some point soon or do I have to use my renown?

Lastly, since I am a noob, is there an all encompassing mod that makes gameplay better, for example easier to kill transports, and not so many damn Hurricane fighters off the coast of France, where the F is the Luftwaffe?
