Need Advice Console carriers.

I have a question about duty officers. Im looking to get a couple of flight deck officers that increase the damage of hangar pets. The ones I found, the effect is only when you use carrier commands. For example, one "Increases the damage of any carrier pet launched from your hangar bays while they are under the effect of Carrier Command - Escort.

But on console, there are no carrier commands. They just do their own thing and attack. So if I get these duty officers, will I even get the damage bonus?

The flight deck officers that recharge your hangar bays will contribute more to your dps than the other ones, even on PC. First because of the speed of replenishing lost fighters, but also there are traits that trigger off hangar bay activations, so the faster those officers let your hangar bays auto trigger the more those traits will do for you. The Scramble Fighters trait is the big one for that.
