My boat is dead in the water, cant go anywhere. I can dive and surface, but thats it. The weather is overcast and my watch crew is in foul weather gear, but I should still be able to move around shouldnt I???

I have moved my engine crew between compartments, etc. Nothing seems to work. I even set my time compression high and reeled off a day or so, and still nothing. My realism is set to 0%.

Hi and welcome to Subsim

Sounds like your crew are tired
High T\C wont refresh them - needs to be under 256 IIRC
Put them all in the rest bays for a bit and let them recharge
Crew fatigue can be a nightmare
I use SH3commander and set my fatigue to none
That way I dont have to babysit the crew

Hope that helps

Wooly, I've seen a couple of people with that sig and I absoluetly love it.

Do you mind if I use that sig as well ? it is shareware right ? How do I make it clickable ?
I want to promote my favorite mod

Ok Cool. Are there any other GW sigs which are shareware ?

I have already modified the basic.cfg and set each crewmember type to a maximum fatigue of 20 (from .5 or .6 original value). None of the crew have a exclamation point over them. I will try resting them, but none of them are showing signs of fatigue.

same thing was happening to me. it turned out that i didn't have the correct crew members in the engine room.

with my situation, i had to have an officer and 2 machinists (the guys with the little gear symbol) plus the rest of the spots filled.

(and they all had to be rested)

as soon as i got those gearheads in the room my props started up again and all was well.

hope that helps,
