Question regarding fuel

h.sie · 06-28-09, 10:14 AM

In SH3 there is an option to automatically go back to the home harbour. is this always possible or only if I have enough fuel?

IIRC this is possible in stock no matter how much fueld you have, but in GWX you need to "drive" your sub to 30km radius from your home base to be able to end mission.

Yeah...just hit the Esc key and then take the Exit Patrol option followed by Return to Base. You're done.

Hmmmm....I don't think so. I believe in GWX, you can still teleport home from anywhere with the ESC key.
I have read recently though that you can't if you are playing at 100% realism. Maybe that is what you are thinking of.

I do know know at lesser settings you can use the top secret teleport switch hidden in the control room.

Remember to be surfaced and no enemies in sight to be able to teleport to home base :P

As already stated by Torplexed and sharkbit.

Some people tweak the value of just a single option so they are at 99% (the total value must equal 100%)....which still allows them to teleport back home for example:

[RealismPercentage]
LimitedBatteriesRealismPercentage=99
LimitedCompressedAirRealismPercentage=0
LimitedO2RealismPercentage=0
LimitedFuelRealismPercentage=0
RealisticVulnerabilityRealismPercentage=0
RealisticRepairTimeRealismPercentage=0
RealisticShipSinkingTimeRealismPercentage=0
ManualTargetingSystemRealismPercentage=0
NoMapUpdateRealismPercentage=0
RealisticSensorsRealismPercentage=0
DudTorpedoesRealismPercentage=0
RealisticReloadRealismPercentage=0
NoEventCameraRealismPercentage=0
NoExternalViewRealismPercentage=0
NoStabilizeViewRealismPercentage=0
NoNoiseMeterRealismPercentage=0
NoWeaponOfficerAssistRealismPercentage=1
