Japanese surprise attack seemingly not triggering

[christian]

In my current game as japan, I have played from 1890 to may 1929 where I once again am at war, yet have not gotten a single surprise attack.
these are the following wars I have participated in
I just declared war on Russia again in 1929



So far I have had 0 surprise attacks, Germany it is understandable as they have no possessions in any sea zones I was present in, thus no way to attack.

But every other nation (including the UK) had active battleships and cruisers in sea zones where I had a major presence 


Statistically according to the manual there should be an 80% chance for the surprise attack to trigger


considering I have been at war with 7 countries in these 40 years, yet have not gotten one surprise attack I am under the impression it is bugged

to further expand on this, ive now been in further wars, again involving russia (twice) france and germany, and have gotten the "no opportunity found for surprise attack" message every time despite having carriers, and manually moving my ships into zones with heavy enemy prescence before declaration of war

Something might be wrong with my save or game

i linked savegame because i feel something is seriously wrong


Its worth noting i have two mods

The ship horsepower mod from seawolf, and i manually edited the gundata/ordinance file.
but these should not effect surprise attacks at all

Since the 37beta update, I have played a total of 10+ wars as Japan and have never had a sneak attack.

I've had several sneak attacks sprung against me as the player against AI Japan. Including one past the 1970 end date that was... weird. I got the message that a surprise invasion had been launched, but no war declaration that turn. The map showed the invasion correctly. Next turn, the invasion was gone. Turn after that, another surprise invasion, this time properly accompanied by a declaration of war.
