Damage Control PLEASE!

Driftwood · 03-25-07, 04:10 PM

Anyone know if damage control is working? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong. Had my aft torpedo tubes damaged by attack and they don't get repaired. Manual says the crew will automatically repair stuff and you can put extra people to work on it with the Damage control party. I did both and nothing happens. Thoughts everyone?

it takes some getting used to. anyway you have to make sure that your damage control party is crewed, then simply activate it. it will auto repair damage and control flooding.

Ok, but I kept checking the progress bar(s) on the items that were damaged and the value never went down. Cranked up the time compression and nothing changed. I am, of course, assuming that if an item isn't totally destroyed it can be repaired. Could this be a bug?

Drag the torpedo tubes from the subsystem menu onto the damage team priorities box, see if that helps

How do you activate the damage crew to fix something?

Nope, they're already in that box and I've prioritized them too. Still no change in status.

I have the same issue, the damage bars never go down. Also, the estimated time to fix that's pictured in the manual is missing. Why did they take that out?
