Pretty much. It was the best compromise i could find. For example, in TMO sim file for the gato i think, the @15.19 knots is adjusted to be the exact speed of ahead standard. The way I have the engine throttle set up, ahead standard is 3 engine speed. Look in the submarine cfg file, i think its obvious when you look at the percentages. The 15.19 knots is so exact because i multipied the top speed of the boat by (I think) 75%. (75% being 3/4 or 3 out of 4 engines on the line)


Side note:

The faster you go on the surface, the slower your battery recharge. The slower you go on the surface, the faster your battery recharge. If your going ahead standard you have 3 engines on the line and 1 on the charge.
