Just one of the goofy things in this game.
Even though you have 4 engines, the game engine considers them as two.
Get two of em... any two... wiped out its game over. 
The full red bars illustrate they are beyond repair. |
Well, In actuality, here's your real problem- both electric engines are out. The boat is driven by the electrical engines. The diesels do NOT drive the shafts directly, they run generators that run the electric motors and or charge the batteries.
So- if you lose both electrics, but still have the diesels- you ain't going nowhere as the motors that drive the props- the electric ones, are shot.
That's what elanaiba meant when he said you lost the engines that matter- he wasn't talking about the diesels.
Well at least you have 2 diesels left to power the rest of the electrical system, so you can still have ice cream while you drift with the current.
