Typically they traveled up and down in their area. That’s what I do as well. I’m also ok with going weeks without a sighting as was historically often the case.

What I wish we had is Vorpostenstreifen, the patrol lines set up by BdU north to south. He would even tell boats “travel x degrees at x knots til further notice”.

We are way more on our own in these sims than they were in real life. BdU dictated their every move in most cases. It would be nice to get more orders like that.
