Second battleship game is ticking me off, 3 attempts and I keep sinking. The interface for the ship's condition gets covered up by the battleship game and makes it hard to run to the periscope, and i have to run around all over the place and hope the AI gets lucky and doesn't make a stupid decision while keeping the boat from automatically killing itself.
It's like carrying chimp ice while trying to cross the barrel bridge, forgot to pay attention for a couple seconds and you die, your success is based completely on luck and the odds of you making it out are bad, and it's not even fun or makes any sense.

Void Blade, thanks for the feedback. I've seen a few people post about similar issues about the mini-game being rather challenging. Any suggestions on how to address the issue (beyond what you've already mentioned) would be appreciated. Is it simply a case of adjusting the interface layout/positioning?
Has anyone else had a better time with the mini-game?

The first part is easy. The 2nd part is brutal because you don't know what effects the health and how to raise it. I hate the fact that it is based on pure luck and not any skill or IQ.

@Mod Timbo, i don't have problems with moving around as you can click the periscope/characters through the interface but the Submarines health deplete's without being hit making it a pain to complete, i would really appreciate this being fixed

I'd think it'd be useful if you were able to do all of it in one interface. You could have one half for the battleship game and have it normal, and the other to assign the workers along with the details on the ship.
You could have maybe a little pictures of each of the workers with a option to click on them, then click on the name of those sections to move them there.
Just something that lets me see all the information at once and do something about it.
