As to fixing the battery issue, I suspect you just created another Ability to 'correct' the issue. From what I can see, you've got one crewman with an Ability that basically keeps the fuel from dropping, and another that effectively allows visual contact with ships even submerged. While this method works, it does reduce the number of crew slots I can use for TMO Abilities, though, I probably won't need the TMO Battery Fix guy anymore... Early War any Mk 16s you use get replaced with Mk 14s. I'm fine with it, but I thought I'd point it out, the hydrophones don't seem to work, and the TMO range/bearing rings on the map/attack map are not present on the Interceptor.
0) didn't change the keybinding. I guess it came from the optical correction mod? I did include that file in the mod because of the new special ability icon configs for toolbar menu.

1) yep. that's the fix. And unfortunately it seems to be the only way to get it to work.
2) intentional. If you want to keep using mk16, simply rearm before returning to base. (Think about time-travelling the movie the final countdown )
3) It works. It's just with the guy working as "advanced combat operator" the hydrophone contacts will be visual contact. Stock map icons is recommended. And you should enable "map contact update". In fact, during my gameplay hydrophone range is further than radar for fast moving targets without land obstruction. P.S.: the hydrophones for this boat works both on surface and submerged. This is why you can get visuals with ships much further than visual. (This is ~= dangerous water's "Show Truth" options, except it has blind spots, max range, and won't pick up stationary or very slow moving boats.)
This isn't the furthest sensor though... This boat is also equipped with advanced radio decryption hardware...
4) The mod isn't based on stock TMO, it's based on optical correction for larger resolutions.

P.S.: thanks for testing!
