Resource Acquisition

There is a somewhat ongoing bug that is from time to time touching various aspects of sea oil drilling ships from surveyors to drillships and causes them to go idle instead of continuing to perform their task. I am working on this but it is tied into the larger revamp to travel coding for all transport types that are due for revamp (Like Semis from Last Summer). So hang in there, and if you have a ship go idle, please do not send it back out on another job, as it should still be working it's original job and it's easier for me to track and fix the issue if it's limited.
