Manual Plotting

I am not sure how that is going to work if my virtual Kaleun has to sprint from station to station...

This is the same concern I have with it. The game needs to either provide a competent crew that can do those things for you, or allow you to "teleport" from station to station since you're not really teleporting, just changing roles.

If it forces you to play all the roles, like in SH4, AND forces you to run to each station, then it could get real tiring in short order, and make it nearly impossible to play on high-realism.

Obviously, I'm just speculating though since I haven't played it...
