Well, first you can try to right-click it to see if it goes away
If not, and you don't have free roam, use Tab-menu to trigger the alarm and make sure someone get assigned to Damage Control. Assign a couple of sailors to speed things up.
You might have to select the officer assigned to Damage Control and right click on Command Station and select Damage Control when it pop up.
After they have finished their search (look at progress on the tiny green bar at the bottom of the officer UI. The engineer should be able to repair the damage.

Edit: Should have known McDewgle would beat me to this :-D :-D

well i'm already assigned the officer to damage control with 2 sailor, but nothing change or repaired, i'm speed up time, docking to port but nothing happened, no progress bar at the bottom officer either

Well that's why. Damage is repaired automatically when you dock in port. That hidden flaw notification is old, just right-click it to clear it.

Dmg control looks for damage they dont repair it. Just select a mechanic and sent him to the flawed spot

@mERINAroer, are you right-clicking the notification icon on the right side of the screen?

there's a bug where a notification can get stuck on screen, not sure if vanilla or part of soup causing the problem but it's definitely there.

Had it myself with a "hole in the hull" message that got stuck, except I didn't have an crew icon next to it just a white thumbnail where one should be.
There was no damage anywhere, no holes no nothing.

Had to restart a new campaign to get rid of it as pulling into dock didn't do anything.
Reorganising my mod load order seems to of helped or I might just be more disciplined with my excessive time compression/quickloads.

Either way, can't identify the cause just yet.

I had to do a complete search to find the mod in question, since I removed UBE and all its dependencies the problem has disappeared, in my opinion they have modified many more things than expected and announced in their mods, c is a great job but unfortunately it is still unstable, and even too overloaded for the game and unity itself, which certainly brings out the bugs even stronger, I don't know but what is certain is that having skipping images and one-minute saves on an ssd is not at all optimized from my point of view, but the ube team is working well and in my opinion will end up finding a solution.
I myself also realized since I am currently working on modding and that it will be preferable to mod a major part of the game in dll, because I think that harmony is also the cause at some level of possible overload, because it's probably stable in some sense for small mods, but uncertain for heavier code I think. and that would be normal because adding memory that blocks memory and adding update on update at some point I think there is certainly a limit.

this is old but I am having same issue, found damage its a flaw but there seems be no way to repair it. mechanic wont repair it engineer wont repair it, they only search for damage and find issue, go to port they won't repair it, I thought maybe it take a while, so I saved game put on alert and sat there well they sat in water with the search bar looking for issues for one solid month and the flaw never got repaired. I think flaws should have to be dry docked and repaired it make sense that they would get repaired when you send your people on vacation. but they don't.

I am running game with no mods.

and this isn't a notification issue it says it needs be repaired over torpedo tube it just does not happen it seems.

anything and everything else I can repair but any flaws that pop up unable to repair them.

I really do think they should allow you to request drydock and then flaws get repaired and your people get to go on vacation at same time.

also as state this damage is not getting repaired automatically at port and as state its not notification its on the tube saying its damaged.

I am having same issue damage that is flawed is not getting repaired, mostly on stuff pops up on torpedo tubes everything elese get ether auto repaired in port or on open sea but flawed stuff related to torpedo are not getting repaired for me.

does not matter if its mechanics on board and enginer or if you have parts or if you dry dock also amount of time does not matter.

it just does not happen period.

I just had this issue a few days ago, i wasn't able to post about it because the steam forums was buggy and would only let people start threads but not reply in comments.

I dont remember if there was an icon on the right sidebar where all the notifications show up. I do know those notifications can glitch out sometimes and not go away, but i dont remember if for this issue there was one there. There was also an repair icon of some sort on the hull, the area in front of the deck gun. I went up top and walked around in front of the deck gun hovering over the icon but it didnt work. I went into the sub and looked up at the icon but still wouldn't let me interact with it. I didnt want to risk having my save game messed up so i just reloaded a previous save and it went away.

Old post, but still having this same issue myself and haven't found a single fix. Really don't want to lose my save over this.

All damage is repaired in port, you can ignore the warning after docking. Save and reload or click the icon away.

Have the same issue, a flaw that refuses to be repaired. And I'm in the port, saved/reloaded, and the icon can't be clicked away.
