i don't pick anyone that have eyebrows that meet.i have a gun for the rest i like to rule with an iron fist.

Im running GWX3.
When kitting out my crew before my first patrol I notice that if you select the Helmsman qualification for one officer and stick him in the control room then the efficiency bar increases more than it does for inserting another officer instead, who does not have this qualification.
When the officee with the Helmsman qualification is removed then the bar drops. However if you leave him there and remove another (non Helmsman) then the bar does not drop at all.
This shows the Helm qualification is useful.

Ok. But when your torpedo room bar is almost empty, reloading is much slower then when its full
If your radio room bar is almost empty, your bound to miss contacts
If your machine room bar is empty, you use more fuel.

But if your command room bar is empty? What happens then? No noteable difference in steering...

The Helmsman and Medic qualification have least effect in actual gameplay even though they show a positive move in the strength bar.

Chalk it up to the devs editorializing that any half wit can run the command room...
