If I understand this correctly, you've switched the engines off and things went quiet? Or am I missing something?

you are right about the engine going quiet but it also kept the telegraph on the option i selected for it

I must be missing the point too here.  ;D

So the engine keys turn the engines on and off, just like they mean to do, and this doesn't influence the throttle (telegraph), also as it shouldn't do, by design?

Turning off the engine doesn't mean the throttle has to close too...
Or did you mean that it's not realistic for Titanic? Well it's how the game works I guess.

well the Titanic has features like all other ships...you can turn the engines off, she has radio transmitions, and i bet RMS Gigantic can name more as he's good with that. i've actually known this for a while but didn't feel like posting it as i was others do....so what are we exactlly missing?

You can watch it! Cheek! I didn't shave this morning and have a face with a surface like a Brillo pad.

 ;D

I did try not starting Ship Simulator, and I think I heard the same noises as Matt5764, though. Apparently my wife gets the same noises because she doesn't have Ship Simulator installed.

by looking at the controls at the bottom left there is no engine on/off switches for titanic but for the other ships

Because she uses telegraphs.

More likely because she had steam engines. The coal fired ones didn’t switch on and off.
Firestar is correct in that the telegraph had a “finished with engines” order.
