To: Cadet T'Nel
From: Captain Rayne
Cadet, I want to thank you for submitting this information to engineering and following up so quickly on what could have been a serious issue. Since then, I have been contacted and given an explanation.
As Lt. Rand and Lt. Clavik now know, that simulation was taken directly from a holo-recording of an actual covert mission. I took a few liberties in removing classified details, but engineering has confirmed that the 'glitches' you both encountered were due to a combination of corrupted data files, as well as the computer blocking the classified components. The lack of sensory stimuli was the computer's way of "pulling you out" of the simulation.
I apologize that this happened and I am working on re-writing the simulation. I have passed along these details to Commander Rix, who will be taking over command from here.
Well done, Cadet.
Signed,
Fleet Captain Rayne, Temporal Affairs.
