Easier AI for TMO
Convoy routes for TMO 2.0
Is it one engine or all four? - lol. You could be charging your battery or your crew is just staying on top of things ready to go after that next contact....

My best guess is, I don't think the diesel engines ever 'turn off' unless your boat is submerged. One would think at least one engine would be charging so your battery can remain fully charged and run the electrical systems that are in use even while stopped. Refrigeration, air conditioning, water heater, cooking, lights, 1MC, pumps, etc, etc.

Happy Hunting!
