Which battery?

If the truck battery is fully charged the alternator sees a fully charged battery and will cease charging and the coach battery will not get a charge.

Again if the coach battery is fully charged and wired directly to the truck battery the truck battery will not get a charge.

The alternator charges until the regulator sees a charged situation and then drops back.
