Default How can increase the batteries enegry?

I tried to edit the Type XVIII becomes Type 21 by S3d , when I opened the Uboat18.sim to change the submerged speed to 17knots , the Batteries enegry will be empty within few hours even just keep 5knots to patrol. but the Type XXI should keep 5knots speed in 60 hours in reality.

Does anyone know how to increase the batteries enegry?
my english not gd enough just hope you guys know what i mean , thx bros!

You have to change the miles variable as well.

From your example:

5 knots * 60 hours = 300 miles, so on uboat21.sim(or whatever the file name is) under unit_Submarine -> Ranges -> Submerged you have to change both speed=5 and miles=300

thx bro, I tried that already but still decrease enegry so fast even set 5 knots , I dont know why 5knots will spend more enegry than 17Knots or other speed, I tried many many times

You can try changing the values for [EngineProperties] in NSS_(subname).cfg, it might influence fuel/battery consumption, but I'm not sure.
