In which realism mod is it easier to attack convoys?

I never made a video.

Also i should mention that "lost contact time" has been changed in how it works.

This one value was for all escorts regardless if they were convoy escorts, port escorts and hunter killer groups. That, im told, is no longer the case, it's supposed to handle them differently now.

The time that non convoy escort stays hunting the submarine is now calculated as 2 * (skill * 4 + 2) * lost_contact_time -/+30%. Skill being 0 - 1 where 1 is elite.

So for a non convoy elite escort that might be ….

2 * (1 *4 +2) = 12

12 * 15 = 180

180 -/+ 30%=54

180 – or + 54 = 126 to 234 minutes

So for a non convoy escort that might be ….

2 * (0.6 *4 +2) = 8.8

8.8 * 15 = 132

132 -/+ 30%= 39.6

132 – or + 36.9 = 92 to 172 minutes

The time is now calculated from the time that the escort arrives on location, instead of when a unit makes initial contact.

Now Supposively, For convoy escort the "Lost contact time= " stays the same as its always been with the only change being that the time is now calculated from the time that the escort arrives on location. Although im skeptical in that because ive seen them loiter alot longer then 15 minutes.
