My thinking for the VIIb:
Rear torpedo room: 1 guy per watch should be enough. When in Battle Stations it would leave 3 guys in charge of a single torpedo tube. 3 slots deleted. Engines rooms: 2 guys per watch makes 6 in total when in combat situation. Not unreasonable. Another 3 slots down. Control room: must be really crowded when in combat stations . 3 per turn seems more logical to me. 3 more slots that could be axed. Also the Watch in the tower must be busy when in combat, with 4x3=12 guys looking for the enemy . If we remove one set of 3, that would make a total 12 slots that could be removed. 56-12=44. We could add 1 or 2 guys to the damage control party. That would make it a total crew of 46. Plus the Commander/Player , it's now quite close tothe 48 objective . |

Left off, culling from the control room... as not sure which would be the best... not to mention, is a possibility to instead... cull from the forward torp room, the same # there... leaving the control room as is... just a thought here... with still following the outlined idea... keeping it to the projected & shot for crew round out to... 46, (with the kaluen rounding that out to 47) & thereby... getting as close t the bulls eye of 48... though, to hit that mark, perhaps, rounding out the damage control team, to 3... thereby ringing the bell, right at that solid... 48. If that last bit, can be achieved... that is. M. M.

Here's a first attempt for the VIIb:
https://mega.nz/file/8gAVxaSb#JqCfjQ...jmXo-z_QjVgcGQ 3 Officers, 4 Senior NCOs, 11 Junior NCOs and 29 seamen for a total crew of 47. Unfortunately, the extra Damage Control Party member is missing, despite I added it. There must be something else that controls crews (or more specifically the DC team), and right now I can't find what it is. Any feedback is welcome. |

CTD - it's not just a job

Don't forget fellers, that there are the SubName and UnitPartsXSubName upc files that hold the actual crew members on board. Duty by shift and Battle Stations positions are actually placed from there. That screen drawing can mess with the best-laid plans in the upc files. They should match. It might also be why your 3rd Repair man doesn't show. Either that, or he is a Maytag Specialist, and decided to take the day to go fishing, instead of hanging around the shop...

See that the positions that were dropped, in the other compartment areas, were edited out, along with the crew... was the slot for the 3rd damage control team crewman, added in... Another point, to contemplate... on the berthing section... would it not make sense, to add 3 more slots, to the original 6, to have space to stuff the watch crew, outta harms way... As I recall, their being there at station, is more prone to them, being hurt/killed... iirc... If, am wrong on that last bit.. I'll... stand corrected.... but, think I'm right on what I recall... I think. M. M.

Ok, then on the point of having 9 there, instead of the 6... or in this case now... 3, I concur... Much thanks to KaleunMarco... on that timely bit to the war effort there... M. M.

go check it out and see if you can pick up on the pattern. i say that because now that you are aware, and you understand the Crewmember Slots, you should be able to decipher the section assignments. i am not at my SH4 computer otherwise i would paste-in an example.

Silly me was looking for hints in other files, not in the same one I had already edited. Thanks for the tip. |
