Dealing with damage/flooding

Mowgli · 07-18-12, 07:41 AM

I experienced flooding as a result of being attacked by two destroyers, other damage throughout the vessel was minor and could wait as could the torpedo loading as I was in run silent mode and keeping my revs below 100 trying out the 5 degrees to port suggestion read else where.

But the flooding was a worry. Did I get my repair team to resolve the flooding and lose my stealth and reveal my position or stay silent.

Luckily I managed to lose my pursuers before I had to make that choice but am wondering now how much noise the damage repair team and not operating in silent mode gives away your position.

You could always stop your crew loading the torpedoes by emptying the compartment so there should be no noise there.
