*shrug* use stock fuel settings! All boats save the porpoise and S boat in stock have a 15,000 NM range at 10 kts. When it should be in the neighborhood 12,000 @ 10 kts. In TMaru i fudged it and gave in the neighrborhood of 12,000 @ 10.95 kts (may as well say @ 11 kts). That little fudging of the numbers i did, in action increased max range by 1000 to 2,000 NM, which is still less then stock. 
edit:
As anyone coud guess, im a big stickler on fuel. Its an important gameplay aspect to me. That said, if someone links some hard evidence of how much extra fuel was carried in the ballast tanks, ill adjust for that in TMaru 1.5. |
After doing some looking around, I would say that as long as the fuel capacity we use includes the fuel/ballast tank capacity included in the calculation, then 12KNM @ 10.95kts is fine IMHO.
