Default Problems with v1.3

Yo sailors! I am running v1.3 patch and experience the following problems: 1. I am able to sail submerged forever (from Tokyo to Perth) without running out of fuel, batteries, oxygen or building up carbon dioxide. (I have set all these to realistic in the game setup) 2. no matter what the compression is, my sub sometimes does not budge a millimetre even though the chronometer is spinning like mad. I have to reset waypoints, and start the trip again. 3. regardless of whether I have sustained damage or not, my sub is destroyed (goes into a sprial and the oke on the horn tells me this, and that, and everything else is damaged) if I dive below 30m. What's up? Any ideas please? Maybe I need some mods? My system specs are as follows: AMD 64x2 Dual Core Processor 5600+, 2G RAM, Direct-X9.0c, GeForce 8800GTS 500MB memory. Please advise? is anyone else experiencing the same? Cheers! Rattail

If your talking carrier mode you may want to double check the carrier settings (which are different from the game settings).

There is a radio on the top shelf to the left of your 'desk' while in base. Click that and check.

About the not moving thing. Your ship defaults to all stop when loading a saved game.

also (this is kind of a duh, but) if you dont have any crew in the engine rooms on the active shift and you order ahead standard then the sub isn't going to move because nobody is working in the engine rooms. (that gets me a lot and i dont notice it)

How come you don't have a crew there?

You'd also have that problem if you forgot and left battle stations on, or silent running. They'd become exhausted and pass out.

As for the "difficulty" it sounds like a career issue as was suggested, click the radio (?) upper left on bookshelf.
