weapons officer asleep on the job

Was the ship you were trying to lock onto one you may have hit earlier?
Because the only time this happens to me is when trying to lock onto a ship that is already going down. I hit one once and it showed no damage, and took hours to go down, I knew I hit it with two direct hits and after that could not keep a lock. So I just sat there forever watching till it finnaly went down.

It's not the weapon officer, but the watch officer that goes on the brigge. If he's not on the bridge I seem to get very few visual reports, if not nothing at all. Or could the crew be too tired?

thanks i meant the watch officer. maybe it was a tired crew because we had been running in the rain chasing down this convoy for a long time but none of them showed fatigue and the watch officer was on the conning tower with them and i had a full green bar up there. i guess if this happens again i'll try switching out the crew right before an attack just for good measure.
