Hi everyone,

I was coming back from my fifth patrol, and at about 80nm from Kiel, I got the message that I was out of oil. I pushed to the limit since it was not a very successful patrol. I am pretty sure at that point that my IIA stop in the water. I then went submerged to try to get a little bit further (which worked to some distance, got close to zero for battery). At that point I came back to the surface, and I was able to get back to the base with my engine. Is that a bug or we have some kind of reserve?

Thanks for any explications.
