Its not so much a cheat anyway
You can have silent running at 30kts if you want but it seems anything over 2 kts will get you detected
SH3 doesnt model the advanced nature of the XXI apart from maybe torpedo payload and reload times
Whilst the creep engine is part of the boat - I have seen it being repaired on the odd time I have used one - mainly in testing
It isnt used as an engine
You have your diesels or electrics
No other option

when I originally looked it over and I put two creeper engines into my type IXB I got them working at normal speeds even. they do work are you sure that they dont automatically engage on the silent running order unseen, or have you previously seen something the makes you certain they arent used by type XXI in game.

Did these "creeper engines" reduce your noise emitter? |
it was indeterminate whether they did or not reduce signature I will test it if I get a chance next time Im working on type XI it doesnt take long to switch them out, it may take time to accurately determine result.

[edit] ps if it does work then it would probably solve the detection problem just by swapping creepers for mains, I cant recall clearly
but for some reason I feel I was detected with vanilla enemies at 6 knots but I feel I was safe at 5 at the time. cant remember for sure and will have to test but I can test that simultaneous to other items I need to get type XI working, as I already know that the damage screen will report engines destroyed when I put them in, (they still work though)[edit although maybe the props didnt???]
