Naval interception

[stjeand]

Question...

I have noticed recently that naval units will continue to try to intercept if they do not find ships and do this over and over.
In one game the German navy tried to intercept the UK fleets 8 times.

First attempt they found ships and smashed the UK fleet.
Next 6 attempts failed.
8th attempt found.

Is this how it works now?
I know before they got 2 attempts and done.

That seems a bit much...not sure how a fleet could search over a half dozen times in a 2 week turn when the fleets they are searching for could be 100s of miles apart in opposite directions.

Successful intercepts.

If a patrolling fleet doesn't see another fleet it shouldn't count against them.
