Another hint, think TWICE about sending a Patrol Progress report after that. Look at your Diesel reserves for getting back to home port. Just like E.T., sometimes it is not a good idea to "phone home", because your next mission goal will send you further west and you will never have enough motion lotion [diesel fuel] to get get back to home port or a near supply base [blue anchors on the nav map].

Good advice!
The admiralty is "insensitive" to your fuel status!
Makes you wonder what kind of "command style" this game mechanic simulates.
" Commander. Thank you for sinking 25000 tons off Honsu. Proceed to Singapore for another 25000, then to Rabaul for a port photo recon and then to Tokyo for the insertion of an agent to assasinate the emperor. If you don't have a handy agent, try sending the medic. Then proceed to the Bering Sea to observe if the icebergs are behaving politely and
then you can go to your new base in Fremantle.
All of the above at your own discretion of course eh!"
The higher command is playing with the "realistic fuel" unchecked!
