That's a really good point, but isn't it possible to just simulate submarines as neutral ships cruising the seas UNTIL they encounter the player's sub? I personally don't really care that sub X is attacking convoy/Task Force Y 1000 nm away, but it'd be really good if occasionally some friendly/enemy submarine is attacking me/my target convoy/task force.

That's just what I think. in this case, we'd be seeing some sort of computer power requirement similar to what we're seeing now in a combat situation, perhaps using a bit more power. I don't think CPU should be a problem if we do this kind of simplification.
