Best Long range speed?

Even then, it wasn't the holes in my fuel tanks that bothered me as much as the CTDs if I tried to look at the wrong ship model (eyes, scope or recognition manual). I recognize many fellow SubSimmers as enjoying RFB over other options. CTDs being common kills it for me. No evident practical option for fuel conservation would only be a continuing challenge.

I don't experience any CTD's, neither with RFB nor TMO. You might have another problem with your PC.
If I set speed at just a little below 9 knots I can comfortably reach all the different areas and get back to home port, using RFB.

Regarding CTDs, I reckon the hardware is surely a factor to consider. That's why I generally keep it a personal project to figure out. Others playing who've never had my problems just proves it's most likely how my rather new Dell's wired or the combination of it and my vid card. The fuel use difference is a puzzlement, though. That's game (or mod) coding (actually settings) and it should behave the same if I haven't monkeyed with it. When I can actually dicker with the innards of the game/mod (ignorantly or not), I probably will.
