The disturbing part is the crew continues with repairs during silent running and that seems like it should not be happening. Any ideas? Why??? 
Also two battle stations symbols? A bell or a man symbol. Why?
Also...talking about repairs I noticed a hammer symbol in the engineers tabs but it doesn't seem to do anything. The crew seems to repair if that hammer button is pressed or not. Can anyone explain this to me? 
EDIT.....final question for now please...is there a different ping sound for when you are detected vs when they are searching? |
Would like to know this too. What is the "proper" way of activating Battle station, silent running, or ther things?
Speaking to the crewmember, using the command symbols, hitting a key?
Also, yeah it does bother me too that you can leave silent running and battle station on only for a limited ammount of time because they drain morale so fast, if they drained it a bit slower, that would be nice.
