I think adding the time factor for reaching the conn would be valuable. I think realistic time delays for order implementation, particularly when you can see it, would be good.
This may be crazy, but imagine if your nav map was viewable without needing to "change screens"? If you could be walking past and see your current position, position of contacts, etc. without needing to change to "map view," as it were. If you wanted, you could "dock" at the map view so you can focus.
What if you could be walking to the torpedo room, look over at the map on the way, then go forward or aft, and tell the crew which torpedo tube to load first or send the XO to do it, it could give you more control (at the loss of having one of your command officers out of reach for a short time).
If you could actually order crew forward or aft to change c.g. and see them moving about...if you could "train" crew members by spending time with them inside the ship.
