This tutorial and your intercept tutorial were immensely helpful. Glad I stumbled across your channel. Thanks!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It means a lot to me that you found the tutorials helpful. Your support keeps me motivated!
Excellent video! Since getting UBoat I understood the concepts of crew management and tried to come up with workable schedule and task priority , but the more I tweaked it the worse it got. Following your examples almost 1 for 1 I just finished a near perfect cruise with my crew always ready to perform any task needed during alarms, always well rested and with no stress. This video was exactly the info I needed. Thank you!
Crew management can be quite daunting and finding a good setup isn't that easy. I know it well myself, because I also struggled a bit until I found a good schedule that would have someone on duty all the time for the critical duties while not having fatigue issues on the long term, so I'm really happy this tutorial helped you! :).
Hey thank you so much for this video man!
this stuff really helps! Cheers!
Glad it helped! :). Thanks for your suggestion :)
Watched a few of these, this video sealed the deal thanks
Welcome aboard! :)
thanks. lot of people forget that number of bed determine the shift. lol
Such a great video, thanks so much!!
Thanks a bunch! So glad you liked it! Stick around for more fun stuff!
cooking is the most important...
Hmmm it's important, yes, yet it's not as important as other much more crucial tasks. It's in the same ballpark as cleaning: you want someone doing it on a regular basis, but sailors are more than enough for the job.
It's important to have someone cooking in your crew, that much is true, and that's what I say in the tutorial. However, WHO is cooking, it does not matter 99% of the time. Wasting an officer for that role is, well, that, a waste, unless you're really desperate for discipline (and there are much better ways to get your discipline up, such as using music or playing cards).
Delegating the cooking on your sailors and using your officers for much more important stuff is more than enough. That's what I do in my submarines and it has worked like a charm thus far...
@@ramjb Dejémonos de mariconadas con el inglés. Cuando hice la mili nos metieron a un fulano que decía que era cocinero pero no tenía ni zorra y nos intoxicó a al compañía entera X_D...aún me acuerdo de sus muertos..
Thanks, that was helpful. I bought the game because I loved Silent Hunter 5 in the past & liked your videos but on my first patrol, I did have the shifts but not the priorities so, they wouldn't sleep. So what happened on route already, my commander fell overboard and I couldn't command the boat anymore and my crew or officers, not sure, would drop like flies from exhaustion. One of them died and in the end my crew was just sitting around crying like babies saying, "we're all gonna die".😅💀
LOL....we've all been there, more or less ;). Hopefully from now on you're not :D :D :D
Thank you for this useful tutorial.
Thanks, very helpful!
Glad it helped!!
Unfortunately, this no longer works. Since you cannot order your crew to manually load torpedoes, if your one mechanic happens to be on-duty during combat then he will remain on engine duty and not load torpedoes. The only way to get him to do so is to enable an alarm, switch him to another duty, switch the chief engineer to engine duty and then cancel all active duty orders, then switch the main engineer again to engine duty. A very tedious process. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but my mechanic will no longer load/maintain torpedoes during combat. I also have issues with the radio operator failing to translate messages when he's off-duty - he must be assigned manually to the radio controls whenever a message appears, and even then will only do so when an alarm is enabled..
uhm. You can manually load torpedoes with an officer. Select him, right click on the torpedo tubes you want to reload, he'll manage the reload you have chosen.
You can see it in my current career, episode 3, after the torpedo attack I did on the C3.
Also, if the radio officer is off-duty at the time of receiving a transmission, of course he's not going to decode messages. He's not there to do so ;). Again, choose him and send him to the radio station. He'll begin decoding as soon as he sits on the chair, no matter if it's in combat or not. Remember, sleep is (and shoud be) the highest priority for all officers. If an officer is scheduled to be off-duty, he's going to remain so until his schedule calls him into his shift again, no matter a message has been received and needs decoding or not.
@@ramjb I've tried that, but unless an alarm is enabled, he runs to the torpedo tube and then goes right back to sleep. The radio officer, if off-duty when a radio transmission occurs, will run to the radio and attempt to decode it for a second, then goes right back to sleep, resulting in repeated messages of 'transmission interrupted' until he's micromanaged into the radio role. This doesn't happen with normal scheduling. Perhaps it's just my save file, but these are issues I've run into repeatedly.
You dont put dive schedule do you?
Depends on the time of war. From mid 1942 onwards I set most of my daytime hours to dive. Before that, if you're not bothered by manually doing sound checks with the depth dial icon, you can put 2, 3, or 4 one-hour dives during the day so the sonarman gets to listen for contacts automatically. But I like doing that on my own :).
@@ramjb my main concert with your schedule is 2nd watch officer always does observation for full shift and no one is on navigation, where i lose bonus to efficency on type IIa which already struggles with fuel
@@ImmortaliusMNE This guide was done with the type VII in mind. That's the submarine model players will be playing for the most part of their careers. Also, it's not up there to be copied as is. I explained how things work (roles, skills, schedules, etc) so viewers can decide to do whatever changes they see fit to the baseline to adopt to their preferences/situation/circumstances.
A good instance of this is my last patrol in U-559. Shortly after departing fatigue began becoming a progressively more serious issue. The patrol lasted for almost a month, you can imagine by the end of it it was a massive issue. So, accordingly, I adjusted my priorities so my two radiomen had a pretty high priority at playing cards, and one of my mechanics saw his cooking priority raised aswell. That allowed me to keep the patrol going until I exhausted my torpedoes. I entered La Specia, fatigue penalty was at -19, but I still had a firm hold on discipline thanks to the change of priorities for my officers.
What I'm trying to say here is that what you see in the video is not gospel not to be touched, modified, or adjusted at all. It's a baseline that works, and works well, to keep your officers up and ready while covering for the most vital roles of the submarine 24/7. If you feel navigation is one of those roles because of the IIA's range issues, then by any means, modify it as you wish.
But my take n it (and I also have a Type IIA career on the channel, recorded and uploading while the beta was going on ;)), navigation is not one of those vital roles ,not even in the type IIA. Meanwhile keeping a working watch on the bridge, indeed is.
Having to go back to base because fuel is running low is a nuisance. But being sunk by an aircraft your watch crew didn't see in time because the officer was too busy doing navigation, it's the end of the career.
But again, the tutorial is a guide, the shown example is a baseline that works for people to adjust it as they see fit. So change it in whatever way you want :) :)
thx bro
My pleasure :)
Does this work on 1.0 release?
Yes :)
Thanks, very helpful!
Glad it helped!
