I entered that into the utility and started a mission. I order 10 knots and ask the NA for range at current speed. He gives me a report of 26040 km. That comes out to be 16144.8 miles. As you can see that is quite a bit more than 15500 at 10 knots. When I tested the IXD2 earlier (I don't remember exact numbers), but when I was going at ahead slow and asked for range at current speed I got a report like 75,000 km (you know how that report varies - at one time he game me a report of over 100,000 km!). I entered 23,700 miles into the Crush Depth utility. As you can see, without even converting to miles, that is much greater than 23,700 miles. What should I do to attain the most realistic sub ranges? The numbers entered into the Crush Depth tool were taken from uboat.net, so they are right.

On another note, when changing crush depth for the VIIC, what are the check marks for the VIIC/41 and VIIC/42 for? I checked the readme and it doesn't say. I know the VIIC/41 & 42 are hardcoded to be the same as the VIIC.

In that case reduce the number you put in till the effective range matches the historical value +- an error margin that is tolerable for you.
