Default Squirelly operations with 1.5 'abilities'

One of the things introduced with 1.5 and the add on were these special abilitys.

I have a crew member with the 'engine' special ability... you know you can click a button and get a few more knots out of the engines in a pinch.

Well I'm cool with that but under 'normal' operatoins some wierd things are happening.

I typically 'cruise' at around 9 knots for fuel economy. The thing is now when I order 9 knots the boat does 10 its like this at all speed settings, a little higher than ordered.

Problem is its using fuel at a rate faster than what Im accustomed to. So now I order 8 knots to get 9

Another little problem is when Im running submerged typically at around 2 knots and then order a 'surface' when the boat breaches the surface it takes off to flank I did not order any speed change and when I do it may or may not change speeds to what I ordered. Typically by the time I notice a bunch of fuel has been 'wasted'.

Long story short.. performance is erratic.

Am I the only one that noticed this?
