Crew management get easier as you progress through the game. Once you get reputation points you can increase the amount of officers you have in your sub. Max I think is 7. But I want to add you want your sleep to be the highest number. If it is not the officers will tend to work till they pass out. This system is only great for use if you like to play on realism travel and like to speed up time makes your crew more automated. Granted I do think this takes away from the game. But I do also like how it makes you feel more like a captain of a crew. Crew management in the Navy was a real thing and still is. Just FYI in the U.S navy the submarine force works on a 18 hr day. 3 shifts but we work 8 hrs reason for this is so we do not eat the same kind of meal every day. So one day I eat lunch and dinner when I wake up the next day I will have breakfast and lunch and so on. Love the videos keep up the good content hard to find people who truly love games like this.

Having served in the NAVY (USS Enterprise CVN 65) it was 12 on 12 off, under normal operations. Battle drills, 24/7 and you slept when you could.

6:00 from what i understand the "freetime" is not the same as "downtime", so a sailor does not work only 8 hour days with 16 hours off. The sailors you put to help officers are taken from the ones that are not on shift. If you think about it it makes no sense that a sailor would only work 8 hour days in wartime on a uboat, i would be surprised if not working 12+ hour days minimum would be the norm, atleast when needed.. but im just guessing there

Nice overview of management. Some nice tips and tricks. I tend to play like you do, so I'll want to tweak my officers. Thanks.

This is pretty much how I set the crew, except I turn off torpedo loading and warming and give engines to the mechanic, So I always have an engineer on the motors ( one works day shift the other night ) Just for saving diesel.

Nice video. Thank you so much. Greetings from Gran Canaria.

18/3=6 Thanks for the tutorials. Much appreciated.

Found something very cheesy if you set your radiomen for 2 hours awake 2 hours free schedule he turns into a fire and forget person lol And when you need him you can just use him like normal and just reset him back to his schedule and he will catch up on rest and food

Trying going to two 12 hour shifts vs three 8 hour. This gives you 9 sailors vs 6. Also you can reduce the engine priority since your engineer will be manning it with his assistants.

I wish I could just understand enough to motivate myself to actually start playing

I would like to know more about setting schedules for the officers to have a more autonomous boat.

Would B128 require a new game or is it save compatible? I just discovered the mods and boy am I in for it. Still, an amazing game and greatly appreciate your videos. You are the only one out here going through these tutorials. Makes it so easy to jump right in it. Thanks!

I am just now seeing it, I like the captain for me in first-person mode, I dread the idea of the god's eye view for the game, I like the idea of feeling like I am on the boat, not watching the boat, so normally the leader of the shift will only get to use there ai ability if I let them, and I always hog the controller from the AI.

Ha! "Dive on in"... I get it

Just got this game on steam sale I heard there's a few bugs and it's early access, but honestly this in my opinion has a lot of work to be done to it it took three attempts to get through the tutorials and the crew management is very basic. The 11 quid on sale was worth it but any idea nah.

Any thoughts to updating this?

Hi I am using a laptop and I cannot for the life of me work out how to zoom in and out. Can you give me some advice, thanks.

I only get 5 tasks under crew not the 9 you have?
