Default Stayed 40 days at a milkcow

Hello all!

Patroling the caribean sea with an IXC I ran short of fuel
and met with U-460 west the canary islands.

And stayed there from Jan 9 to Feb 19th 1943! Is this a bug
or could this be changed in future as resupplying from a
milkcow normally took just a couple of hours and not a dozen
days.

Btw, I am using random-days at base. For my next voyage to
the southern Atlantic (GQ) I`ll set the days spent in base to
1 day as I am expecting to need a resuply of fuel to come
back ;-)

Is there a Fix for this problem? Or is changing manually the
best mode?
Losing 40 days is a bit heavy for a thing which costs you just
5 hours or so. Is there a possibility to get back the 39 days lost?

A question to IX-type captains: I am running my 1st carrer with an IX
(IXC) and I am thinking to change the boat.
Important for me is the crash-dive deep.

Are IXC40, IXD1 and IXD2 better in this as IXC?

Already thank you very much for your help!

Best regards,

Christian
