Skill Rebalancing

Last night I was playing SH 5 and I forgot to disable the Battle stations after the attack (XO special ability). So days passed and nothing much happened. I started to observe the crews morale (individual stats) and it went down really slowly. Basically I could have sailed about two weeks with the battle stations on. But I'm not sure if it was because of the Battle stations or just general morale decay.

So my question is, that is there any side effects because of the Battle Stations, does the crew get fatigued eventually?

If I remember correctly, in previous games the crew got exhausted if the battle stations was on too long.

I hope too that somebody looks into this, this section of the game is pretty much unmodded (except sobers great tweaks).

I had thought about that, but the issue is that the game really doesn't model fatigue anymore. Not necessarily a bad thing considering the silly micromanagement that was needed in SH III. The only conceivable negative I could see attached to the skill is doubling the CO2 rate increase to reflect all of the crew being active while submerged. I really see no true "error trap" to prevent its usage in this game.
