Not sure what versions your running but there are no arrows in TMO on damaged items. There is a list at the bottom of all damaged items. The item you select to be at the top of the list will be worked on first but if other items have less damage and can be fixed quickly they will show as repaired.

An instance would be a bulkhead at 50% damage and a radio at 5%. Not matter the order the radio will get fixed faster due to less damage. They rate will increase or decrease with available damage repairs teams and how highly they are rated.

Filling the billets with men so that the damage control team green line is on at half will get your damage repaired only half as much as if you picked better qualified men and had that line at full green.

If you are at silent running the repairs from the DCT will cease but you will find items still repaired but not at the rate of not being at silent running.

The DCT will always be at work when ever damage has occurred with the exception of silent running. If no members are in DCT billets the repairs will happen at a slower rate by members in those compartments.
