My currently project, which has bloated to probably both my largest and most complex sub ever, requires a great deal of communication and teamwork to make it through a mission- Just ended up liking the look of my ballast flora clean up system and decided to share it.

Each gauge shows the current ballasts level, and each valve hits one of the four ballasts, shuts down that specific ballast and 10 seconds later after flashing the very helpful "DANGER!" indicator sets off the radial autoclaves to sterilize the xenos menace (Or anyone you don't like that happens to be in there repairing a pump)

[EK Dockyards is where the gauges, and autoclaves come from]

Have my bridge set-up sans a depth gauge/klaxon and some odds and ends.

Welcome to the PMC-00 Rubblemonger, the progenitor of all PMC subs with veeeery outdated controls and systems.

The engineer monitors the reactor from a console on the bridge, and directly controls the engine- and is the nearest man to the sole periscope. Hosting 4 coilguns capable of automatic fire- the periscope can switch between them and the sensor mast mounted above the command deck.

The mechanic controls the ballasts, and is able to monitor the sub via security feed. A number of systems have indicator lights on the bridge- but there are no status monitors, so if you think there is a leak keep an eye on the oxygen pressure gauges conveniently located on the bridge.

The captain has access to a sonar monitor so no velocity or depth is available and must command his crew to successfully navigate. Not finished, but below his monitor will be a terminal capable of certain commands and modifications to the ship systems.
