In RTW you have only one option to refit engines...
"REPLACE IT ALL!"
There should be options like "replace boilers" "Replace turbines" "Replace transmission" and finally "Convert boilers to oil"
Oil conversion should either spray oil to boost speed a little, or replace the coal armor with oil tanks and keep the weight normal.

I like the suggestion but it could really complicate the game. You could include pine oil as the Japanese actually used it. I would and have suggested that coal and oil be included. In other words, a ship can have both coal and oil. British cruisers used this in the 1920's because coal was stored in bunkers next to the machinery for protection from shells and torpedo. |

This is a suggestion I would gladly support to the fullest of my ability. Please, please, please, pretty please with sprinkles on top prioritize this as an option for update 1.50

Why 1.50 in particular? Why not something in the 20's?...

A 'Dual fuel' choice would be nice, to cover oil spraying etc.
