Default Ok who stole my fuel??

Ok who stole my fuel??

A bit of a comedy glitch, starting a new career in Jan 1943, I guess those darn french dockworkers have been stealing fuel again...

Seriously though, why have i got no fuel??
Im using SH3 commander 2.7 with the malfunctions & saboutage turned on, so maybe thats the answer but it seems a little extreme for a malfunction and ended my patrol before it even began.

I have experienced a similar fuel loss of about 50% (or was it even more) in range when using the Sabotage and Malfunctions setting. That time I had to stop at a milk cow just to be able to make it to the US coast.:rotfl:

My guess is that it simulates either a unnormal high fuel consumtion or some sort of sabotage (perhaps drilled holes in the fuel tanks).

Have you tried covering the deck surface with Solar Panels? Of course, with SH3 weather patterns you might struggle for enough sunshine.

Also, you should check the air in the tires.
