Commanding Officers ALWAYS make tatical decisions based on the condition of their boat's readiness, and when damaged you absolutely must know how long certain repairs will take. You also must be able to dictate what the priorities are for the damage control team are at critical moments! I would sure hate to need my tubes fixed first and the programmer decided that flooding must always be fixed first! Especially if I sit in 60 feet of water and have a dire need to shoot my tubes.

So my hope is that this will be remedied in the first patch. (PLEASE)

Did you play Aces of the Deep? I liked how the devs made the damage control screen: it was a blue print of your sub and the CE circled the damaged parts of the sub. You could click on them and get detail info, I want that back.
