[?] Default standard propulsion instead of charge batteries?

There is only one certainty here.....you'll never sicceed if you don't give it a try....good luck

A long time ago I thougt about this issue. Well, the reason to want this, is that you want the boat to go as quick as possible, giving the command "ahead flank".

Using SetKeys I combined the order "Ahead Flank" with "Standard Propulsion" and all the other forward commands, except "Slow Ahead"(~Silent Running) witch "Battery Charge"

I get maximum speed when i desire but under all other conditions the batteries are charged.

That's a brilliant workaround!

No, that really is brilliant...i'm off to do it right now

That's great, thanks, just set it up and works fine . Now to see if I forget to charge the batteries at some point.

BTW that SetKeys utility is real nice.

It looks like we shouldn't have to remember. If we did it right, the batteries will still recharge automatically unless Flank Speed is selected.

I hope.

Right, I knew that of course , I was just trying an unbelievably sophisticated reverse-psychology with-a-twist ploy to see if anyone else knew it .
