True.....
and yet some people like to develop the attack plot and enter data in to the TDC.
some people like to do their own navigation
some people like to use the deck and flak guns
These are all abstracted in the game because, as you say, there were crews to do that. I'm just wondering what other tasks could be made fun and challenging - diving and depth control may be candiate.
The way we play this and other subsims is based on Dev choices about which aspects of submarine operations could be considered enteraining. Aiming and firing torpedoes is obviously at the top of the list.
Now you certainly would not want to be messing around with depth keeping while you are getting ready to shoot your torps, but it could be very exciting controlling depth QUIETLY while under DC attack, or when crash diving, ESPECIALLY if the boat is damaged.
There were times when Uboat captains did not just sit back and let the chief command or do all this.

On the U-boat you are the Captain and you have a subordinate crew, 50 or so people, that do all this work..
