Ah, sorry, i already found out why i had this stupid issue.
My New UIs message box doesn't follow the time line days...so i have to manually clic next day in message box, when days are changing.
Weird, but it has always been there from day one of my New UIs utilisation! (even when i had 7.1.0 version)

Have to delete this mention in first post

I have reduced IRAI 039 difficulty settings quite a lot:

################## Difficulty parameters ###########
# Note: difficulty is in range 0.0 - 1.0 with 0.0 being no difficulty (sensor doesn't exist)
# for non-merchants
VISUAL_DIFFICULTY_MIN = 0.85;
VISUAL_DIFFICULTY_MAX = 1.0;
HYDROPHONE_DIFFICULTY_MIN = 0.25;
HYDROPHONE_DIFFICULTY_MAX = 0.55;
RADAR_DIFFICULTY_MIN = 0.85;
RADAR_DIFFICULTY_MAX = 1.0;
SONAR_DIFFICULTY_MIN = 0.25;
SONAR_DIFFICULTY_MAX = 0.55;

Destroyers are still dangerous, but it's playable again when attacking a task force. Without this change, noway to survive 6/10 destroyers on stock IRAI in my opinion!

Right!
Even with those settings, in FX Update test mission (vs 2 destroyers), i ended like this:



...but survived at least!! lol

So after many tests in my current career, i have added few mods and adjusted some (like IRAI difficulty HYDROPHONE_DIFFICULTY_MIN = 0.40; HYDROPHONE_DIFFICULTY_MAX = 0.60; SONAR_DIFFICULTY_MIN = 0.40; SONAR_DIFFICULTY_MAX = 0.60; )

Added a nice mod (thanks Volodya!) ---> AST_SH5_v2 by Bilge Rat.
At least now, small cargos are sinking, and not sitting there (or keeping speed) burning for hours! They can sink from 5 mn to >30 mn depending hitting place.
Bigger boats still need more torpedos, but medium can be sinked with one if we can wait.

I have also reactivated "AI crew damage control" in TDW patcher, to give merchants more chance to repair/stop the sinking.

Very pleased the way my mod list is running
