yeah, food is what I was thinking about also. type II wasn't that roomy inside and 27 men can go through a lot of grub in a hurry. They didn't have freeze dried like we do today. Mostly it was smoked, dried or salted to preserve it.
I was thinking that about 10 days should be the max time out, but I don't know just how this game does the days.
I started out of the Kiel canel on the 6th & did a fast forward & 15 minutes later it was the 9th.
I sunk a boat on the 12th & a few hours later it started getting light so I submerged for the day & by morning the next day it was the 15th... maybe I slept through two days due to lack of air...
I think the TC skips a bit sometimes.
I have started using 128 TC more because I think you may end up missing a lot of traffic with the 512/1024/2048 TC speed.. It just seems that I find more with less TC speeds.
Now I just use the 2048/1024 for homeward bound after the torpedos are all gone.
