When you select silent running repairs, eels, pumps etc. stopw working....the revolutions of your propellor drop to about 200 rpm IIRC giving you a speed of approx 2 knots. This is still not enough for some escorts with veteran/elite crews and dependant upon conditions such as your depth and sea state etc. Best to manually set your rpm to about 100 rpm which gives you a speed of approx 1 knot....that is how the game engine interprets the parameters.

Correct...that is one of the weaknesses of the game engine IMHO.
