Default Help!Using fuel too fast!

My sub was damaged in an attack mission,the batteries were damaged.Then I order my crew to repair them,but they couldnot fully recharged at all,only 97%.

Then a strange thing happened,the fuel was using too fast.when I run about 100km at 8knots,1% of my fuel will be used.

Now I can not go home although I have 42% of fuel left.(The Midway is 6000km away!)

what shall I do?I want to go home,I have launched all my torpedos,and sunk 10,0000 tons of ships.I don't want to restart again,so help me please!

Btw:Sorry my English is not good,hope you can understand what I say!

Try using the button to stop the batteries recharging. It might improve your fuel economy.

Other than that, get out and push I'm afraid.

Thank you very much!I will close the recharge mod when the batteries are fully recharged(only 97% I think)!

There are still many bugs after patch 1.3,maybe we need a 1.4 patch like the sh3!

Sigh.... yes we could use another patch.

But dont blame the game for trashing your boat and having troubles getting home.

It would be kind of the game to automatically shut off the recharge mode when it has reached the maximum change on the batteries, even if that isn't 100%. Any boat mechanic worth his salt would.

Yes you would think so but Im afraid your going to have to pay attention to it for now. I dont thing the game keeps track of the

... or when your crew is at battle stations for 2 days, struggling to stay awake and pushing the limits of human endurance, unable to use the bathroom or eat, and no one bothers to let you know.
