4. Change course after you activate silent running to either port or starboard from your original course.

This works for me.

Thanks for the advice, Clay. I do use silent running at times, though I'm chary of using it during action. I need my crew reloading and repairing and not dropping equipment on their stockinged feet.

Sound advice on slowing before reaching crush depth! I learned that in a hurry once when I overshot the leveling out, and I got quite an earful from my OD.
