Hello, I've seen in the loading screens and some anecdotes that you could run a single Diesel as generator for the electric motors, saving fuel during long cruises while also not wasting precious battery life. Is that possible in SH5 TWOS?

If you see 2 little yellow buttons on the control bar on the bottom of the screen on the left side. You can click on those to shut down one shaft. Also try lowering your speed using the Chief of the Boat - he should have an optimal range option. From what little testing and reading I have done this should be how it works.
