This mod fixes an old bug that induce a 40%-50% decreased range when the uboat run submerged.

VonHelsching was the first to point it in SHIII.

You can find all the basic specifications for all the Uboat models here :
http://uboat.net/types/

To resume, the dev team used a nautical miles value (for example 90@4knots) that later they used with the same numerical value as
kilometers to calculate the range/speed of the submerged Uboat.
This mod fixes that.

This mod is proposed in two versions :
-one stock version, mainly destinated to the modders, as they can test their mods with real battery lifetime on a clean install.
-one fully compatible with NewUIs_TDC_7_4_2_ByTheDarkWraith. This is the only compatible version that I will update according to the evolution of it.
In a certain way, Real_Battery_Lifetime_Fix_Mod can be considered as an add-on for NewUIs_TDC_7_4_2_ByTheDarkWraith mod, and thus MUST be enabled AFTER it.

This mod is JSGME ready. Proceed as usual. Say yes when JSGME ask for overwriting the NSS_Uboatxx.sim files.

Note : this mod is actually compatible with the 7_4_0 and 7_4_1 version of News_UI.

Note that you can make this mod compatible for any Mod that previously modified the NSS_Uboatxx.sim file(s).
You will find a precise and detailed technical procedure in the appropiate Readme file.

Thanks Volodya, no hurry anyway :yeah:

Fifi, download the mod, and follow step by step the procedure described in the readme of the stock version : in 5mn max you will create your own compatible mod (with one type of Uboat, will take a little bit more time if you want all boats)

[Fifi]

Yes, nicely explained, thanks! :up:
