Grr... starting patrol, got a shiny new Type IXC, wait for the mission loading... "Starboard diesel engine destroyed". Harumph. Well, nothing for it; just have to make do, I guess.
But it's the same on the next two missions, as well. The game simply starts with the diesel destroyed.

I guess I could tweak the config file to allow for a bit of extra speed to compensate, but I'd really rather not. Any ideas what's doing this?
I'm running no mods, only SH3Commander.
