Ok so why do my deckwatch crew keep getting wounded or better yet killeded?! I float along with nothing happening action wise and lo and behold I have dead men (I think red equals dead) on watch ..

Can anyone tell me what might be going on? The Health and Safety inspectors are gonna close down my boat if I don't sort it out ... I obviously need more disabled ramps :D

Was your bridge, gun, or similar station damaged then repaired? That will sometimes damage the crew that enters such a station. Something about it not being fully repaired, even though the damage control screen says otherwise.

Yes there is this issue. I belive their calling it the domino effect where once they recieve a little dammage, they continue to take damage wether or not under attack.

The modders are the real experts on this topic but you might want to look into a mod called 'die slowly' which addresses this issue.

Cheers guys - I suspect that it may be a bug type of thing as there really is no good reason for this ... i shall look into dying slowly :D
