Going to Battlestations!

01-06-11, 12:32 PM

This is gonna sound pretty stupid to some; but how do I make my crew go the battlestations? I mean I know I can go into the Crew Management page and select the crew arrangement for the proper attack plan; but what else do I need to do.

I'm mostly concerned the the length of time it takes to reload tubes. It takes forever!!

That's exactly what you need to do... physically move the crew into the right stations.

Using SH3 Commander with the no fatigue mod, you can have them preset.

OK. Cool. So I guess I am doing it right.

I'm just really surprised it takes so long to load new eels in the tubes. In SH4 it doesn't take half as long.

Thanks for the info!

So now expects BdU good results, on a large scale in tonnage terms

How long should it take?

I don't know; but it seems like it's running about 15 to 20 minutes per tube.

Maybe it only seemed quicker on SH4 since I wasn't being shot at nearly so frequently!

That time, you can expect, depending on whether the crew is fast enough,

A good crew can reload in about 8 minutes. Fairly unrealistic, but if you are into arcade play, that's what you should average if your "bar" above the compartment is fully green.

But what does torpedo loading time have to do with being shot at? You don't waste torpedoes on stuff that shoots at you, do you?
