The AI BDU in the game is not that complex, i would say it is a coincidence.

I finely found the very small "1.4b" in the lower right hand corner of the start up menu... its really small.

on this campaign/career start thing. I did 4 of those startup with the type IIA boat & my crew still show "0" for missions completed. I did short circuits & a couple of over 100km, but they still have no experience. Also I can't get the navigator to give me a total km round trip figure. It just says "not available"
I've tried it with a short trip & a long trip.. makes no difference..it's just not available.
Also, the mission briefer keeps giving me missions that are farther away then my boat will go round trip. I would run outta fuel about the time I would get there.
Somethings not right...

what kind of speed are you trying your trips at to get poor range?

Brag · 08-12-07, 07:16 AM

Fuel in the II is critical tha capability of dashing after targets it close to zero. If I remember right a cruise speed of 5 knots is most economical

Ahead 1/3 is the most I can use to even get outta Wilhelshaven without runnin outta fuel..

But that is just one of the problems I'm having. I can't leave my computer on 24hr a day. I have to shut it off for other things & my saved games won't relaunch.
I finely made it to an81 after 2 days on fast forward. saved it & came back today & it just went back to that room where you get missions, crew etc. i lost it all...2 days of fast forwarding shot to hel*. I followed the Save buttons & got the "your saved" window assuring me that my place was saved...NOT!
