Description

You are allowed to modify this vehicle and reupload the modification as long as credit is given.

This is a steam powered tugboat with very powerful engines.
It also has 2 steam powered generators capable of delivering up to 2000 Swatts each (when the main engines aren't in use).
It does not need to refill water as it uses desalinators to turn ocean water into fresh water for the boilers, so the only concern in diesel fuel.
It also includes bow and stern thrusters for better maneuvering around docks and at low speeds.
Total Fuel Capacity of 42,500 Liters.
Top Speed of 40 Knots when not towing anything.

Startup Procedure

Simply go to the engine room and turn on both boiler systems, then wait for steam pressure to build. After that it's ready to go.

Things to keep in mind

Propeller pitch defaults to 0, push it forward to 1 to move forward.
Use the propeller pitch to reverse.
The engines have a lot of momentum and can take a while to slow down or speed up.
If you want to stop quickly then set the propeller pitch to 0.
When towing connect the tow rope to the other side of the rope pulley, NOT directly to the huge winch.
Recommended to use the heading hold system when towing as it will help keep the ship steady and on course.
