I am wondering now, if you fellows with Save issues are saving after you get on the boat, but prior to traveling outside of the "terminal" area? I was able to get some 'strange' Saves doing that, such as the boat does not go to "All Stop" when re-entering the game, or it follows the waypoints, which is the opposite from what a "normal" Save would do, such that when you re-enter the game with a Load of a career Save, the boat goes to "All Stop" ("Yes Sir! All Stop!") and / or when you do proceed, the boat will go in the direction it is pointed - or - if the rudder was at say 15° to port when you Saved, it will be at 15° to port when you re-enter, but it usually will not follow the route set until you hit the "Return to course" menu button. In a couple of attempts after Saving in the Home Port area, the boat would return to course without any button pushes... ?? I have not gotten to Empire Waters yet in any of these test careers, but I can imagine an 'error' on the first Save while in Home Port will cause issues further along in the game. The Saves thus far do Load, but there is an "error" in them that might get worse the further I go... ??

Some ships cannot be sunk, f. ex. a large liner troop ship, and the fuel consumption seems very low

hope I could help whit this report
The fuel consumption has been reported, but the ships should all be sinkable, some requiring more torpedoes, such as a large liner not carrying ammunition might take four to six torpedoes, if not more, depending upon where you hit them. The CL and CA are much easier to sink. If you hit a tanker traveling in-ballast, they can be difficult to sink.

One thing for everyone to remember, is that if you never applied a mod to the game prior to FotRSU v1.004.a, or if you only used FotRSU v1.0.1.g previously, or if you've used every mod in the world prior to v1.004.a, you ~have~ to empty the Save folder prior to playing v1.004.a, else you will get all sorts of "strange" behavior. Version 1.004.a is not 100% backward compatible with v1.0.1.g. There are changes to certain aspects of the campaign files, ships and especially airplanes. These can and will introduce "errors" into the game data. Similarly, make certain the LAA or similar memory "manager" is properly set on the SH4.exe file.
