GOM - Daisy: Steam Tugboat

A steam operated, twin-screw tugboat, repurposed as a ceremonial vessel/restaurant ship



Fix: The developers deleted the boiler pressure node, breaking the functionality of the tug.
Updated the piping according to tests done after the compressible gasses update, way less pumps needed for the turbines, less pump noise on top of that. Enjoy!

Design No.: GOM 20210601
Vessel Name: GOM TB S 3200 Rev. 6
Platform: Monohull
Year: 1928

Top speed: 32 kts
Passengers: 24 (for stormlink use: ?pcap 24)

PID controlled boiler and firebox, powering 30 steam turbines and a large generator
Mass: 43.238
Fuel: 627 coal

Range: 3200 km

Length Overall: 34.5 m
Length Waterline: 34.5 m
Beam: 9.75 m
Draft: 3 m
Towing capacity: 450k mass (most likely more than that)

Cost: 159.123 $


Coal has to be refilled every ~4.5h, the firebox can hold up to 53 coal, the coal storage holds up to 576 coal, granting a total burntime of ~54h and a range of 3200km at 32 knots. Coal usage should drop below 11 coal per hour after the firebox has warmed up.
With a full coal storage the firebox can be refilled ~10.5 times until it needs to stock up on coal in a harbor.

As former tugboat, "Daisy" was purchased by Holt Town and repurposed as a restaurant ship and can be rented for weddings, parties and other occasions. In emergencies it is still possible to tow broken down vessels and aid in firefighting due to the mounted, manually operable, high pressure water cannons. It comes with a wenge/teak deck, brass railings and bronze pipes.

How to start:

1. Head into the boiler room downstairs
   
2. Engage the main braker
   
3. Engage relay keys for Heater Pumps, Steam Pumps, Water Pumps, Radiator and Firebox
   
4. Head over to the firebox
   
5. Activate the firebox key above the firebox
   
6. Make sure the firebox temperature lever is set to 130°
   
7. Head over to the boiler
   
8. Push the steam valve to full open
   
9. Make sure the Boiler Target Temperature lever is set to 110
   
10. (Optional) For singleplayer turn to the boiler room telegraph and enable the automatic telegraph key for easier engine operation
    
11. Once the boiler has reached 100° the steam turbines will spool up and the ship is fully operational

Moving:

1. Head into the wheelhouse
   
2. Familiarize yourself with the instruments and controls
   
3. Moving the telegraph will display your setting in the boiler room
   
4. Other players can then operate the boilers steam valve at the boiler control panel, and the clutch lever and reverse toggle astern next to the generator
   
5. (Optional) If the boiler room telegraph is set to automatic (see above) then all those operations will be automated so a single player can simply operate the engine states by using the telegraph in the bridge

Slow ahead results in 3.5-4 knots, half ahead is 10.5-11 knots and full ahead around 32 knots
Slow astern results in -1 knots, half astern is -2 knots and full astern is -4.5 knots

Water Turrets:
Can be operated by hand, you can enable the pump and aim the turret by using the lever for pitch and the arrow buttons for yaw.

Ballast Tanks:
You can drain/fill all 4 ballast tanks individually, for a quick balancing it is advisable to activate the auto-ballast button, this way ballast tanks will try to keep the waterline level.
Make sure to disable the system before moving.

Anchor:
A mag-all anchor can be found at the bow, starboardside.

Heater:
When cold, move into the kitchen and simply turn on the stove. (Don't try this at home)
