Support Officer's Experience

And yet another ''beginner'' question ...

While promoting my crew some medals I came to realize that there is a experience bar in my sailors stats window. One of my officer is now 324/300.

Does it mean he is ready for some ''upgrade'' ?

Or simply it means he is now ''experienced'' .. does it affect is stats (resilience, endurance, etc) ?

I'm clearly missing something here, and the game manual gives no hints about this topic. Help !!

That means he is ready for a rank promotion unless he is already at the top rank for his grade and yes, it improves endurance, etc.

The window at the top of the screen with their current rank; use that.

hmmm...

With SH3 Commander maybe... but I am still on genuine SH3. Window at the top of screen is my sub (side view) with my crew in quarters.

I click on promotions, bunch of sailors get a blue outline (ready for promotion, based on their xp).

Promotion grey box is empty, with a ''0'' beside it. It says : ''must complete a patrol'' when I click on it.

This is my 9th patrol... not getting it !!

Ah. The message about a patrol usually applies to the crew member you've chosen for a promotion, medal, etc.

They can't get anything if it says they've done 0 patrols in their info. section.
