Looking at for example the AMC Patrolus its config file we have a displacement value of 11198. I take it this is the Tonnage value, can anyone confirm.

With naval vessels displacement = tonnage.

Merchies OTOH are usually measured by volume (GWT).

I'm guessing from what you posted they didn't bother with two separate systems and went with displacement across the board.
