i actually wouldn't mind running around and assessing damage myself, offering encouragement to the men and attempting to keep things moving smoothly, actually. sounds well fun.

Now that sounds like a good idea.

It will be interesting to see how the damage control team is going to repair and what steps need to be in place before repairs are under way.

I'm guessing a lot of people will be pleasantly suprised with the offering

that would actually be amazing, i wonder if they'll implement something like that. even if it was only like two neverchanging actions per compartment, i'd love it.

on second thought, with the whole walking thing, i suppose they'll HAVE to add it in. all the better for us captains yea?

FWIW I quite like the SH3 damage screen. Not too keen on how you allocate the repair crew and of course there's the "missing repair officer" bug, but otherwise, it had everything I needed in the one place, without me having to run around looking for it (God bless the repair officer and compartment heads and their regular reports - if I had to run around the boat myself, then...).

Hmmm, to be honest the damage screen i prefer is from SH (do you remember it? )

I really loved the cutaways of the fleet boats

SH3 damage screen was also nice

Yes, they were cool. And functional.

But a long way from realistic.

I agree with you

But at the time of SH 1 there were no interior rooms modelled

In SH5 while we will normally spend most of the time in control room/conning tower/bridge, when the boat suffers any damage we can visit the rooms in FP so we can have a look at the damage/flooding and repairs underway
That way is more realistic instead of looking at a nice cutaway
So eye candy might add to realism

I hope the devs had the time to add the damage/flooding in 3d interiors properly
