I fully understand the Human vs AI reaction time issue... but....
Don't you guys get really bored sailing to the Caribbean or other far off places at 8kts at 128x? I mean i go bonkers a 20kts at 1024 waiting to cross vast expanses of mindless ocean. And yes I have unlimited fuel turned on. I'd rather play a more real game, but I get bored too quick.
EDIT: Missed some of the thread, and I was really interested in Frau K's answer, and I got it. Still interested in others answers.
EDIT2: Was having issues with SC3H setting the times, sneaky sneaky way to force ya to read the pdf! Which i have no problem doing! (Side note: I think the GWX PDF is almost more awesome than the mod itself. Insane work people!
). So being able to crank it to 8kx, i'm goign to try more limited fuel patrols.
