Fuel management and warping

[Olham]

No big thing: when I plan the flight, I check, how far the total round trip is.

When it says "60 miles", I fill in petrol for 90 miles, to have a safety plus.

But often, when I warped, it didn't last till return to base.

Okay, I had fights on the way - but that's what I filled in the safety plus for.

Any ideas, what goes wrong there?

Warp calculations mess up fuel. Normally it lasts a lot longer in warp, so not realistic, however if you warp miles off course or round and back around waypoints to "patrol" you may use a lot more.

(or have a leak).

Also, if I remember right rotary engines had sometimes a bit unpredictable fuel consumption.

Why would that be beats me.
