Default [REQ] Max range at current speed

I'm pretty sick and tired of the admirals giving me objectives with only enough fuel to get there and 1/2 the way back (running at 2/3 speed and stopping to top off fuel) Last night I had to modify my save game to change limited fuel to off because I was stuck. Can you guys at least give me a little help with the Max range at current speed report.

The command just needs a key bound to it. Look for CCIP's keyboard mod here.

Yep. It's quite easy to assign a key shortcut to it (in my version it's Shift+G). The current Flavored to Taste and RFB releases should have it as well.

I believe you get the best range out of the sub at somewhere between 8 and 10kt.

If you chck with the Shift + G in the mod of CCIP, you will found in a sub as Balao, Gato, Gar... the long range speed is 9.4 knots.

If you sail at 3 or 4 knots, your range will be reduce at near 60%.

Just check the long range speed for your sub class using Shift + G.....
