General Assign NPC crew members to the spare cockpit seat so we can actually see our NPC crew members in our cockpits!!

Multicrew members can be assigned to spare seats in your cockpit. The same should apply to NPC crew members who are essentially invisible right now and don't feel like they're part of your crew. This would be a tiny but SIGNIFICANT change! Many thanks for listening.
 
This is a much needed change, and should be totally doable since Apex Taxis are now a thing anyway.

  • This is the 21st century - why are crew still NPC.jpgs ?

  • Crew already have dialogue lines.

  • It would not impact base game / horizons.

  • After taking the turbolift, Odyssey players should be able to see their 'Active Crew' stood outside their ship in the Hanger (doing final checks, or carrying some luggage). This would be instance based like visiting Legs Engineers.

  • It would make sense dismissing your ship on a planet surface and recalling it, if you knew there was an NPC crew member in there.

Go on FDev, stick this on yer roadmap!

Actually I think they should be able to provide Apex like services. Then they could do 2 things, that's double! :p

We know FDev only like to introduce things in half measures - then "develop later" if there is demand LOL

I was giving them the bare bones to make it work. Anything more than that will be a bloody god send!

I wish there were more in ship roles for crew like Nav / Science Desk; allowing other players to navigate, scan and plot routes for the Helm.

Numerous times asked before, but sadly never even reacted officially to this 🙁. It would be really nice if could be applied into this game one day.

I have my elite npc buddy with me for few years already (can buy FC with her salary already 😁), with changes like this there would be real reason to train more as one.
