It's probably the morale bug. Whenever I load a saved game crew moral resets to zero, preventing special abilities to be useable. There's a morale MOD in the mods forum that fixes this.

Thanks paraB i am going to see that but the problem is that mine EO morale was 3\3.Or it has to do with the overall morale of the crew?

Problem is that the whole morale/abilities system seems heavily bugged at the moment. I have also seen various crew unable to obey an order although their morale was actually way up. Since I installed that mod the abilities at least work. With the JSGME mod enabler you can easily install a mod, try it out, and if you don't like it, remove it again.

Its not just morale on a reload, all experence they gain via the current patrol vanishes too on a reload.

Also note that they ALWAYS refuse when you ask them, but if you get the little world of warcraft icon in the top corner that means they did it anyways. So keep an eye on that as well.

I think that if the morale-abilities system is so bugged the game tents to be unplayable imho and it must be patched immediately.And the bad thing is that these are not the only problems.

To run silently you can't be on the surface

You need to go to your locker and get your sidearm.

Maybe they just have a really good game of dominoes going. People get ROWDY with that game underway!

if that doesn't work, raise CO2-levels to make everyone drowsy

Go to external view and make sure, even though you're underwater that the watch crew isn't still on deck. If you don't have external view take a look outside the radio room to see if the officer is standing there, if not he's still on watch.

Happened to me last night, no matter how much I submerged/surfaced, the watch crew wouldn't leave their posts and XO "could not comply" with the silent running order

Made the sneak through Dover really interesting lol.

It fixed itself when I reloaded a previous save however

Sometimes I think this morale thing is the most stupid idea.When a DD is above you and you are asking for silent running ,the EO prefers to die because you didn't ask him for his wife before.So in that case you take out your side arm,you execute him and ask the next in command to do the job.Simple and plain!!!!!!!It is really that frustrating!!!!
