Having to rotate the crew.

Does anyone know if its possible to modify the minimum "green bar" level to keep engines running or is that hard coded like a lot of other unmoddable stuff?

After a little study it seems the green bars in both engine rooms need to be maintained at fairly high levels just to keep the engines ticking over. It would be a little more realistic if speed dropped instead of engines being cut completely, but a reduced minimum level would be a compromise if nothing else could be done about it.

The quickest and simplest way is to play using 'no fatigue'

Use SH3 Commander. You have various fatigue models available.
Either choose no fatigue or GWX/8h model (I use this one works
very fine)

A trick there is to qualify an officer and a petty officer or two as mechanics. With that you probably won't need many more crew members in the engine compartments.

I don't know what to modify, if anything, to tweak the efficiency bar.
