Talking about it, please note that on surface electric engine's output should be similar to the one of diesel propulsion (i.e. identical rpm/speed gradient) 
I hope that you can mimic this fact in game. |
Code for letting you choose to run electric engines on the surface has been added to SHSim
It works great. Once the electric engines are engaged on the surface the diesels shutdown, their animation stops, diesels sound stops and electric engines noise is heard
Now just have to add a new command to the game (sh5.exe) so you can 'ask' for electric engines when surfaced.
The electric engine's ratios will be that for the electric engines. You are running electric engines if you ask for them. I don't see how the electric engines ratios should be the diesels when surfaced.
