My preference would be to give these commands "verbally." "Tell" the WO, navigator, XO or engineer to go to a certain depth; take a certain heading; or go to a certain speed.

I use the More Crew Commands by Dialog mod, which is terrific! Thanks, Athlonic!

What would be ideal is to have the above commands added to the dialog boxes where the actual value can be dialed in. I hate "telling" the helmsman to come to heading 179, because of slightly inaccurate mouse placement, when, IRL, I would have simply said, "Come to heading 180."
