Help fuel very low
 
Hi fellas


i'm 800 miles from Midway and Twice that to my home base at Pearl. I have 6 out of my 100 fuel.


What can i do? is there anyway to get a fuel resupply?


cheers

You can change the gameplay settings while at sea.

Try this. It is basically the same thing as SH5.

What version/mods are you running?




What range does that 6% add up to? maybe close to 800, refuel at midway.
if it's not enough, I read on a post somewhere, that you could submerge run on batteries till you get there, even if says you have 0 battery. I don't know if that's true, might be a game glitch, and never had to try it.

for most boats, your most fuel efficient speed is about 10 knots.

Believe it or not i made it back with fumes in the tank to Midway..I used the batteries and diesels constantly switching on low speeds to get there but it worked.


Im using FOTRS.


cheers for the advice fellas. Very helpful.
