An interesting side study might be to look at how many real subs ran out of fuel, and what the outcome was.

In the meantime, the lesson is: Don't leave the computer when you're at high TC. In SH3 I had more than one occassion when I saved myself at the last minute by dropping to slow speed; but that only works if you're paying attention.

Or maybe they need to include a 'Chief' patch: It drops to 1x and the COB says "Skipper, I'm worried about the fuel situation. Here's my recommendation..."
