Julke,

You're right, there is some number-fudging going on, the most obvious being the substitution of "knots" with "m/s". At the time I did that, I didn't think most players would have a frame of reference for knots, so your surface speed is 18 knots, but it's displayed as 18 m/s.

In hindsight, I wish I had left it (and may change it back) because the numbers only matter in relative terms ("am I faster or slower than that ship?").

The other fudge is making the submerged speed exactly half that of the surface speed, which is for gameplay clarity purposes.

Regards,

-Scott
