This explanation made more sense than anything else I've seen. Thank you!

[@Lite_lySalted]

@@479_adv happy to help!

[@Beliar_VR]

You should put navigation over watching. It's necessary always having this high as possible. Plus, watch is an endless task, while navigation is done in an hour or two. To make sure of this you should overlab the shifts.

It would be a dull old world if we all played the same

[@rmvdhaak]

Yeah... the crew may not need sleep, but I'm never going to do this schedule because it's immersion breaking 🙂

[@Lite_lySalted]

It would be a dull world if we all played the same.

[@dudeinadoughboy4327]

I had some reservations about this too, until I remembered an irl Uboat crew was much larger than depicted here. Just imagine it's different sailors rotating out as they're supposed to (remember that uboats used "hot bunks", meaning there were only enough beds for half the crew, since only half needed to rest at any one time).

[@Lite_lySalted]

@@dudeinadoughboy4327 my thoughts exactly!

You're not going to believe this, but I also numbered my kids Things 1-3.

Ayyyy

[@harag9]

Great little example. I guess this will probably work well. so think I'm going to "borrow" it when the next update drops :)

[@Lite_lySalted]

Feel free!

[@harag9]

@@Lite_lySalted Thanks. Looking forward to final release, backed this on kickstarter, but not played for a while. didn't want to get burned out, think last time i played was when the management system was implemented. Game is coming on great :)

[@liubei7]

Wow this video sold me on the thumbs up

[@a1g0rhythm]

I append two letters to the crew names, for watch, engines, sailors and torpedo men. The two letters show up above the character.

[@Lite_lySalted]

That's one way of doing it, for sure

[@bradleypurvis3179]

[@Andrew-er5cf]

Very helpful!

[@Lite_lySalted]

I'm glad!

[@mikewood4242]

Haven't played this in 2 years.Looks like many changes

[@Lite_lySalted]

Quite a few, yes

[@brianjirish]

Is it normal for your crew to constant change from one working station to another? My mechanic won't stay on the engine for more than 3 seconds? He'll head for bed but only get about 5 ft from his original position and then head straight back to the engine? Also I keep getting the red notification that no one is covering the Helmsman station? I'll tinker around with this but I figure duty watch would cover this aspect? Thanks for your videos! I enjoy watching your gameplay and have learned a ton!

[@Lite_lySalted]

That first bit sounds like a bug. The helmsmen station is an annoying quirk of the game, as the npcs don't move fast enough to prevent the alert for the 30 seconds before the crew takes over. Check out around 9mins in or so in this video to see how I solved it kzbin.infot6kjCryaEDU?si=52qKca0-BfCiDyBf

[@brianjirish]

@@Lite_lySalted Thank you!!!! I'll look into that video you posted! 👍

[@Kieran_McNally]

At 3:20 I looked over at Kayjay as he munched happily on tiffin's penultimate custard cream. "Really?" I asked, " The love that dare not speak its name on a uboat?" "Yes, my dark acolyte. For Top Left Sky God can move in mysterious ways. Even among a crew of randy sailors whose second home is Madame Fifi's He may bring solace to the lonely in the arms of another." "But Kaleun Skipper has the delightful and currently alpine Gretchen," I protested, "whereas Engineer Oldorp is the one who smells of the pee of the ferrets he keeps and he can't stop talking about the different grades of machine oil." "The privations of life at sea, particularly for those in command lying in their lonely bunks, can bring men together. Particularly in the forward head, where brief, beautiful, frantic moments of fumbling passion would occur, the blue light lending a certain _frisson_ to their activities. "Apparently." concluded Kayjay, carefully. "Really?" I was begining to question this particular tale. "Then the fact that the boat was plunged into total darkness for days on end during the journey home must have come in handy?" "What happens on board, stays on board." Kayjay whispered, falling into silent remembrance of times long past.

What do you do with your Sixth officer? (When you add them)

[@Lite_lySalted]

@@tildensnow2534 spare leader, mostly navigation

[@kimghanson]

I'm just getting started so some of the stuff I see in the game I can't yet figure out. Right now, what do the numbers in the red circle to the top right of each officer tell me?

[@Lite_lySalted]

@kimghanson this is an older vid, I have one that's more up to date on this. The red circle shows how many things they can interact with: radio channels, surface contacts etc

[@kimghanson]

@@Lite_lySalted No worries, I am also watching the newer ones. Cheers.

[@eXX0n]

I did it exactly as you did in your video, but my sailors Engine One and Two are still idle when I have my mechanics officer do another task. Leaving my boat at a halt. Did something in the latest patch screw something up?

[@Lite_lySalted]

Not that I'm aware of but sometimes they sort of de-link themselves. Remove them from the squad and re add them. Works for me.

[@eXX0n]

@@Lite_lySalted Thank you! I think they worked at the start of the patrol, and slowly just forgot their duties. I'll try it out!

[@eXX0n]

@@Lite_lySalted No, sadly, it didn't work. I told my officer working the engines to warm up a torpedo. The guys assigned to him, Mech.Three and Four, just went to bed. And Eng.One and Two were idle. Weird.

[@eXX0n]

Ok. I assigned 2 more sailors to the Engines schedule. Now the engines are manned at all times. Sweet

@@Lite_lySalted I was in England in the noughties when the slew of nieces and nephews began to appear back in NI. There was no context, having never met them and being useless with names anyway I took to referring to them as Ba 1, Ba 2, Ba 3 etc... to the horror of my mother. I can report that 'Ba 1' is now doing a degree in Computers and Engineering or somesuch. Time marches on.
