First of all, I ended up coming back just to say that I'm enjoying your game.

If I send a crewmate to pick up an item from storage, does this automatically equip? because one time my reactor decided to go full "nope" on me, had to shut it down, got someone to equip the radiation suit after radiation has gone from the thousands to the 10s just to make it stable enough while I head back to port.

Second - If my reactor is damaged and have to be shut down, when I go to port, does it get repaired then?

Me and the crew always end up with a nuclear problem, the coolant just dies on us.

When you send someone to pick up some equipment, they automatically carry it/put the item on, so they will be walking round carrying a toolbox and wearing a radiation suit/gas mask/SCBA gear, if they have collected it.

Second, when you repair in port everything is fixed, including borked reactors and dead crew members.

I deal with reactor pump failures/coolant leaks by surfacing the boat, closing all ventilation valves except the reactor room and opening the main induction valve. Also, lower the running speed of the affected coolant pump. This helps minimise the amount of coolant that is lost and radiation that is leaked. Then get someone suited and booted and in there quickly to repair the damage before it all gets too nasty.

Hello!
I really like your game, but i have a problem with resolution. On my screen all text looking non-readable, so i was wondering if there any methods to change the resolution?

Hey, I came back to your game after some time and it's still great.
I've got the problem, that after some time, when I've been spammed with "X has made peace with Y" and similar messages, I can't see the original mission objective message anmore and I haven't found a key to scroll radio messages (using a german QWERTZ keyboard btw, which makes some key bindings a little more complicated).

But I also haven't found any "Current Mission Objective" message on the map or somewhere, which would be a nice add on, because it's really easy to forget the exact coordinates you have been ordered to.

But maybe I'm just blind and overlooked something..?

Edit: One more question: When do I use the electric motor? Is it just a question of silence va. speed?

Edit2: Oh, and I guess the diesels are more like backup for cases where your reactors are not working?
