Crew Saturation (The Bug That Has Lasted Through Time)

Sombreroman

Has anybody else noticed... Whenever you spawn a ship... One area that's supposed to have capacity for Four crew members only has Two? This is what I deem the Crew Saturation bug. And it can be fixed like this:

Just ENFORCE crew number to beds!

Sorry if I sound like an Idiot, but I do believe this bug could be fixed easily, and It could Help with more interesting ship designs.

I mean I'd believe this could be fixed in the Span of Just one update... Right?

Sombreroman Not sure if it´s a bug, more like a "feature", the game automatically places crew out of quarters into weapons and stuff for the ship to be instantly ready once spawned, even if the locations considering the paths back to quarters are incorrect at times.

Drakador_Chaos In this case, I meant that a ship can have two modules, and they'll not have the same amount of crew in them- Even if they are exactly the same. This can lead to Issues with module designs.

Not really a bug, just a feature that hasn't been a high priority to implement. You can also hold the ~ key to prevent crew getting moved to weapons when spawning.

Sombreroman

Walt Ah. I'm just saying It might be better having Crew Spawn at their beds to avoid this sort of thing.

Sombreroman Then you'd have to wait for crew to walk to their weapons, which on some ships can take a while.

Walt But at least It'd fix this problem. I'm treating this as pretty major because it can threaten designs that don't have access for each part, Like the FTL Sections inside of Alpha.

So if a pocket doesn't have crew, That cuts a Margin on FTL Efficiency.

Sombreroman Are you wary that there´s a "reset crew positions" option in the crew menu?
