You can't run them together, but you can switch between them via JGSME or make two installations and install one on each. TMO also has changed the surface speed so Ahead Standard is your most economical speed.

Ahhh... nevermind :sunny:

I havent plugged in RSRD yet so I cant say how it effects milage.

I can say that if I had not reduced my speed in the root post to ahead slow I would have never had made it. /shrug.

Well... i also used my batteries before reaching that point and i'm also aware what happens after that. So it must have been the solar charging effect :p... wonder when that have been fixed? I have the latest RFB/RSRD versions for 1.5 update? ....Damn i cheated anyway...:cry:

Im beginning to wonder if this 'cheat' hasent snuck its way back in with RFB. It was definitaly squahed by an 'offical' patch at one point cant remember which 1.3 perhaps.

But I have noticed on a couple of those 'patrol' missions where I cut my engines and bob around to save fuel the batteries continue to charge. Never monitored fuel usage though.

I just passed it off as the crew ran one engine tied to the generator while we were swimming, fishing, and sunbathing :rotfl:

While sort of on that topic you can submerge, and surface with no engines running at all :roll:

If you're sitting on the surface even at a dead stop, you're using fuel. I've watched it before. A couple of times where I had orders to patrol a certain area and it was low traffic, I'd just sit in one spot within the required distance of the star and crank up the time compression. I still burned 1-2% of my fuel load in a week of sitting there.

squeek

:huh:


Closest I ever cut it was 2% left. Command kept sending new patrol orders every time I called in. :shifty:

Crew reported "out of fuel" long before Midway, but turned out we still had 5% in "reserve" or something. :roll:
