What is the optimum cruising speed? is it Ahead 2/3, 7 knots or ahead full, 11 knots.
I am also starting a career at Midway. I am trying FOTR 1.3 as patched to 1.5

I ask because yesterday I tried TMO +RSRD +some othr small mods and was given Luzon Straits to patrol for 72 hours, again from Midway start.
But using Ahead 2/3, I had used almost 3/4 of my fuel and still hadn't reached the Straits. I was nearly 1.000 mile away.
Trying with Ahead Full is even worse, almost empty and still not near patrol area.

Thank You
