For the moment, the only U-Boat VII-C submarine is yours, indicated on the map with a green symbol with a diamond and a cross.
\nTo move in the surface it uses diesel engines, or electric motors when it is at periscope or in immersion.
\nEarly in the game (or after refueling) its fuel tanks are 100% and allow you to travel on the surface for around 8700 miles.
\nDuring the dive (or at periscope) the electric motors discharge\u00a0the onboard batteries, which are also used for all operations of the submerged submarine, so you have to be careful not to discharge them completely otherwise the submarine will no longer be manageable and will be destroyed .
\nIn diving are also slowly consumed the oxygen reserves, you must be careful not to consume everything otherwise\u00a0the crew dies.
\nBoth batteries and reserves of oxygen recharge automatically remaining on the surface.
\nAnother important feature of your submarine is its integrity (health), which is reduced remaining beyond the maximum operating depth (250m), following a collision with an other unit, or if in its vicinity a depth charge bursts.
\nIf the submarine is not completely intact, its maximum speed, the ability to turn and the speed of immersion \/ emersion are reduced, if its health is less than about 33% then it is unable to move and turn.
\nIf its health reaches 0%, the submarine is destroyed.
\nThe damage is repaired automatically remaining in the operational depth (between 0 and 250m), it can then return to a health of 50% in immersion and to 75% at surface.
\nThe damages are repaired faster staying on the surface, but to return to 100% you must call the Torpedoes Transport<\/span><\/a> with his team of mechanics on board.
\nNote:<\/strong><\/span> recharging, repairs and refuelling are\u00a0available only in the Full<\/strong> version of the game.<\/p>\n
