I finally got SHIV working on this computer after having it for a couple months .I set up my realism settings in the options and then started the American career and chose the normal difficulty. Chose Pearl Harbor as my home base, and then set off on my first patrol. They give me an order to patrol Honshu, right off the coast of japan.

I spend the next couple hours trying to get to my destination, which takes me almost a week ingame. The first thing I notice is even though I set my realism to give me limited fuel, I some how have unlimited fuel. Why is this?

Second, does the game give you patrol zones within your gas limit?
I doubt I would've been able to make the trip if my gas was limited.

Third, whats the best time compression setting?

Fourth, I chose the porpoise as my first submarine, and paid 400 renown to get a basic air radar. Whenever I go to its station, I cant seem to get it to turn on, but my Radarman still informs me of planes he picks up on it. Can only he use it?

Besides that, I keep hitting the enter on my numpad to exit time compression and keep firing torpedoes by accident.
