Default Watch officer "stays in bed" when surfacing :)

Hey folks, I've tried searching for the answer but have been unsuccesful. Hope it hasnt been asked too many times before.

But: when im cruising on the surface I have one officer with watchman qualification doing his thing outside, with some help of course.

Now if i go submerged and come back up: the non officer folks go back to the bridge like clockwork but the officer dude ALWAYS stays in the crew quarters so i have to manually put him back out there everytime.

It's starting to annoy me frankly . Anyone ever experience this as well or have any clue what to do to get him to go out there on his own initiative?

I have disabled fatigue in SH3 commander, not sure if that has anything to do with it?

This goes all the way back to the stock game. You must move him yourself. There has not been a cure todate. I always have an NCO with the proper qualification so I'm covered even if I forget to place the officer on the conning tower.

It's well known SH3 bug . No clue at this time. Frankly, I always try to keep WO in torpedo room..... just to watch lasy staff and to polish my torpedos.

I have always the same problem. WO always in the torpedo room as it is the usual place to move when I submerge; he always remains there if I do not replace him in the watch tower.

Try this link.

While it's not perfect on some machines (well probably just mine ), I can whole-heartedly recommend this mod. Just make sure to read the instructions.

My NCO is qualified and him along with the three crewmen are at there top ranks and my bar is green all the way. I only stick the dude up there for deck gun action so he can keep an eye out while I'm busy blowing the crap out of a ship.
