As time has progressed through the game I've been upping my difficulty levels and learning to manually fire my torpedoes, but the one thing I'm having trouble with is I can't seem to make it to Japan without getting into a fuel crisis while returning. I'm based at Pearl Harbor, when I leave I go to Midway to refuel then head out to Japan, but before I even get to Japan I've already hit 50% fuel left leaving me no extra fuel to patrol with. I've tried going over at slower speeds ect.. I know I must be missing something. I know in real life the boats could get there and patrol for a month, but that's not happening for me. Can someone tell me what I'm missing?

Thanks,
SnowCajun
