Hi,

I'm trying to mod electric propulsion for the tambor class submarine (game V.1.5 - U-Boat missions). I modified the values in the adequate .sim file (I've tried Mini tweaker and a standard hex editor), but nothing has changed; my tambor's batteries won't last more than 150 kms at 2 knots. I can put any value I choose for "miles submerged" or "knots submerged", the batteries life is the same. However, when I change other values in the same .sim file, like max_speed (diesel or electric), it does work in the game. So, I suppose maybe battery range is hardcoded now, or maybe I have to change something in another file.

Does someone know about this ?

TIA
