Another Snafu ?

Yeah fleet boats had a small aux engine. My hypothesis is that the game calls out "REPAIRED!" once the particular component is "as good as it's gunna get" which in this case was still destroyed.

I have no problem at all owth some damage being unrepairable. The problem that I see is that this diesel engine damage happens a lot after 1.3. I maybe saw that damage result once before 1.3, and now I seem to get it every other DC attack.

The changed files don't include the zon files for the subs, though Zones.cfg is changed. Not sure what's causing the issue. Perhaps the "equipment exposure" values changed for the engine room?

Maybe patch 1.3 replaced the Fairbanks diesels with HOR motors.
