Few things about this mod!

First, like few people mentioned, you can't get morale points from sinking escorts or battleships. For some reason if I take out the morale boost from "default ships", it also takes away them from war ships, eventhough there is a separate values for them. But it's not a big thing in my opinion.

Second is that I realised a way how to stop repairs when Silent Running is on! It's a workaround like all my mods

. When using XO's special ability silent running, I can put Repairspeed -100% to it. It disables all repairs! In stock, the crew is banging their silenced hammers and repairs continue without any trouble. This is ofcourse a very unrealistic thing.

The problem is (there is always a problem) that the game uses two different silent running modes. Lets see if I can explain this. If you talk to XO, both modes activate. So if you use shortcutkey to silent run, it must be assigned to XO's command (in stock F8). It looks like this in commands.cfg:

[Cmd577]
Name=Ability_4
Contexts=1
Key0=0x77,,"F8"

So now when I click F8, both silentrunning modes are activated and all repairs stop instantly. Much more realistic. So this will be a feature of the next version of the mod.
