One thing is for sure, and that is that Uboat.net, if it is indeed claiming a 'full recharge', is astonishingly vague about it. I mean is it 3 hours or 5 hours? That very vagueness argues that it's an arbitrary charge time meant to give the boat a certain range, or to allow recharge at a certain safe time, and not necessarily based on a full recharge.

Anyway, I've spent enough time on this. I've gone out of my way to test a boat that I feel shouldn't even exist in the sim, simply because I thought that if it was bugged, I could make some folks happy by fixing it. Now it seems that people don't care whether it's bugged or not - they want a certain mythical Type XXI, and if facts get in the way, that's too bad. I don't much like being fooled into spending time looking up data and doing tests, when the folks who supposedly want to find out the facts get all uptight when the results of the investigation don't match what they want to see. I try to find facts, and I'm not going to blithely adopt any agenda and join any crusade. Nor will I ignore the results of my enquiries just because some folks want to bully me into it. My tests show that, on a 5 hour charge, the boat does what Uboat.net says it should do. You can ignore that, I won't.
