Fractional Speed in TDC

Heavy weather affects your boat in both speed and fuel usage but as far as I can tell AI ships aren't affected. If they are set to 7 Kt. they seem to stay there.

I'm not sure about stock but Ducimus programed TMO ships and convoys at fractional speeds. I've had them at 7.25 for example don't know if this was weather related or not, but I don't think so.

Speaking of Duci I haven't seen him around lately, hope everything is OK.

They certainly can move at fractional speeds. If a unit seems to have a rounded speed (meausred with long duration plotting) then the campaign/mission writer probably felt like making it simple for himself.
