No problem there, if a player decided to double the number then the mission timer gets reduced in turn, after all you can't keep more people alive as long, and the strain on the system would be extra, so a quarter of the basic timer would probably suffice, you have to rush.
Passenger cabin problems

This is an argument for ship interiors (and better NPC interaction). Depending on cruise time, I can walk back to the hold and yell at the
It looks like this hasn't been resolved so I'll add my tuppence worth; based on the screenshots it looks like the minimum cabin requirements might be bugged in that the minimum cabin should be first class? If so, the first class cabin that only has 3 spaces would likely be the problem as those parties can be upwards of five..
Yeah it's most likely this.
Yeh... i know VIP missions are (unless something changed) minimum "Cordial" rep.. max allied. I went to the passenger boards with no cabins and neutral rep to everyone, and had a mix of "insufficient rep" and "incorrect cabin class" messages... so it's inconsistent.
For 34-45m for an evac mission.. that's gotta need allied rep at least.
Is this really a thing? My recollection is that you can split a VIP mission/party over multiple cabins, just that they will occupy the entire cabin (can't put any other passengers in there with them).
I have a suspicion here (based on the credit reward being offered) that the actual bug is the incorrect cabin class being shown in red on the right-hand side panel.
OK, so, I think I've worked out what's going on. You'll have to excuse the lack of screenshots because I had a test mission I was playing with and needed to work quick before a board reset cleared it out.
BLUF: Two key points
So for this i focused on a VIP mission which called for an Economy cabin for 7 people. I got the following results:
So yeah, looks like a change in Odyssey (or in an update) is that you can't combine cabins of the same class for a single VIP mission (Which, I seem to recall was the case in Horizons... like so many other things...).. Someone with Legacy Horizonswant to check?
I'd suggest OP report a bug (or submit a support request) as, if that's a limitation, VIP missions spawning with passenger counts higher than the largest cabin shouldn't happen
BLUF: Two key points
- You don't seem to be able to spread a VIP mission across multiple cabins; and
- What the OP seems to be hitting is a mission which has generated a number of passengers far greater than the maximum cabin size for that class. Passenger mission rewards like this rely heavily on the number of people... at 35-45m, that's a lot of people needed. The only other variable is distance, but as this is an evacuation mission, they are all to the same destination.
So for this i focused on a VIP mission which called for an Economy cabin for 7 people. I got the following results:
| Cabin Configuration | Requirements not met |
| No cabins fitted | Minimum Cabin Class |
| 1 x 32 Pax Economy Cabin | Mission Acceptable (In 32 Seat Cabin) |
| 1 x 2 Pax Economy Cabin | Minimum Cabin Class |
| 1 x 2 , 2 x 4 Pax Economy Cabins (10 Total seats) | Minimum Cabin Class |
| 1 x 2, 2 x 4, 1 x 32 Pax Economy Cabins (42 Total Seats) | Mission Acceptable (in 32 Seat Cabin Only, other smaller cabins greyed out, per screenshot above) |
| Any of these configurations but with my reputation trashed with the faction | Locked due to Rep Requirements |

Depressurize the whole bay and cleanse it. It is a not common procedure when having had some trouble in the warp.
Thank you for confirming this! I wasn't sure if it was a bug or me doing something wrong but that explains it. I'll submit a report later today.OK, so, I think I've worked out what's going on.

When you do, add the link to this thread, that way others can confirm it. I'll also add my info above and a confirmation when you do
Thread for publicising your issues that are otherwise expiring due to lack of votes/confirmation
Just a few days left to go with AX pilots giving you a bounty when it would make more sense for their “report crimes” flag to be off - another 4 confirmations should keep the report from expiring.
