Someone did. It's called SH4.

Seriously, though, I don't think it's possible in SH3.

Would be nice though to add that little bit of realism to the sim

I know of a couple of people who tried but without success.

I find that I can play only an hour or so before I am fatigued.



Actually in game I manage my men as I enjoy managing all the boat activities - not something an exec. officer would do but it makes for more immersion. I am used to running crews and managing my guys in RL, so when ashore I like to keep that dynamic. Whatever floats your boat I say!

I used to insist on moving my men myself, but in the stormy weather and moving them every two hours I found myself taking an hour to cover one day of game time. Since I switched to "No Fatige" that same game-day takes about five minutes. It would take even less, but I still drop to 1x TC every four hours just to check the weather, and I still compile and send a position and weather report at the same time every day.
