The model I'm planning to incorporate into patSH3r is not focused on proviant in that specific sense, but more in a abstract one. The crew gets affected by war discontent and exhaustion the more time they spend at sea. This will lower their morale and ability to recover. By a month in a Type II the crew will be pretty exhausted.
I'm not not completly certain how the model should look like, so I'm open for suggestions.
Basically this has been done before, though strangely it was never adopted in any supermod. Kaa developed long ago a fatige model that sunk slowly and steadily -a bit quicker in storm conditions IIRC- no matter what, representing the increasing physical strain in the crew over a patrol. While the crew never stopped performing their duties, they came to a point where they performed real slow, after two months or so (This can be adjusted). The only drawback is that you have either to find an average for all UBoat Types, or use different fatige models for each UBoat, because a Type IXD2 will be out at sea much longer.

IIRC Kaas model is still an option in SH3 Commander
