It's been a long time and I'm not sure of it's current state, but some friends and I used to have a blast play Artemis Spaceship Bridge Simulator (I think there's a couple other games out there now that are similar)
You kind of need the right setup for it to work well, a big TV or projector you can hook up to a computer and everyone needs their own laptop, etc.
The basic idea is- picture the bridge of the enterprise (or your starship of choice) you've got a bunch of people with their own consoles responsible for different aspects of the ships operation, the helm, engineering, weapons, etc. That's what you're doing.
I think at some point they added support for support fighters and such to accompany the main starship so if you have more people they have something to do.
We also made up a couple extra positions, like a captain who didn't really have his own console, he just got his own chair front and center and a fancy hat and gave out orders.
I always wanted to play that and even used to have the perfect setup for it (projector, big room, extensive seating) but never had the friends for it. I'm envious of your good fortune!
