Stationary subs in harbour without tides and wind - Found it

Hello all!

I'm not sure if someone has allready found what I noticed today, but:

I think it's possible to get stationary subs lay still in the harbour without need to create any tide/wind regions around the boats. Method is simple. Only thing you have to do is place the Naval Base close enough to the beach so that you can place the subs really close to the point where they would be "grounded". After that, give "Transit" as tactic to all subs, set speed zero and VOILA! If the boats try float away they'll end up to "mud" with minor speed and stop drifting before being destoyed by the base or disapearing into the base in case you haven't included the base into the sim.

I tried this with an stationary Ohio today. Planted it in water about 38-40 ft deep and put one playable 688 to the next pier. Loaded the sim and again VOILA! Ohio stayed steady nice and quiet more than an hour when I quit "the exercise". No gaboom, no nothing. Actually Ohio didn't move a single degree for the first 15 minutes when I stayed in pier with 688. I'm not sure if this works all the time, but I think it should.

Greetings,
