The Diesel Repair Bug....

I wouldn't call this a bug so much as a lack of Zone editing on the developers part. Since SH4 is a build off of SH3 you get a lot of the same stuff used. U boats only had 2 diesels, so only 2 diesels were included in the damage zones. Yes it makes reference to having 4 diesels on the fleet boats damage screen but the other two aren't really there.

Now if you're playing in an S boat (not many do) and take damage to your engine room, that's a different story. The damage zone used for an S boat engine room is simply, the wrong one to use. Once it becomes completely flooded the diesels quit working and you can't pump out the water. I'm not sure if Ducimus changed that in TMO or not.
