Default How does damage control work?

So I'm on my first mission, using Wolves of Steel mod.

Sail into the Baltic bay, and next thing you know I'm getting shelled by a destroyer that can't be more than 3000 meters behind us. Why my crew never saw it, I don't know.

Anyway, I dive.

We sink, uncontrolled, to the bottom at like 70 meters.

I can't figure out damage control.

It doesn't help that all the systems are labeled in German, but anyway the descriptions are in English.

I assume if a system is red and at 0% it is destroyed?

Why is it when I click on a system, and a little beating hammer appears, if I go to another compartment and come back the hammer is gone? Have repairs stopped?

Do I have to create a damage control team like in SH3?

I had a lot of injuries. I tried talking to my chief engineer and getting him to control flooding, but he kept saying he could not do that right now. There was a clock time beside "repair critical systems" (item 1).

So I just kind of stood there until my sub self-destructed.

How do you operate damage control?
