Stop paying crew members when they are not active

please fix the stupidity of them being tied to ship destruction.
I understand that's not what this thread is about but I'm taking the opportunity to say this again.
I get that that's a little harsh but there is no good reason for it to be this way.
The more one levels them up the less one wants to take them out. Especially on a Keelback, which is the biggest fun point of a Keelback.

So? Train 3 up to Elite if you want. 30%. Its not like credits have any meaning these days.
I see people complaining about how they have paid like hundreds of million to their NPC, to which i think, ok, so you have made billions in that time... and you still need those credits for something? How many Cutters can someone own?
True to a point but then I want my crew members back if my ship is destroyed. Even if I have to pay a fee of some sort or something.
To be honest I've never thought about pay them less money. They're my crew even if they're not active. It's just an option to hire or not. I love to take one of them when I want pew-pew, and not because for money, just for fun. The 'work part' of Elite is over to me, have/earned everything what I wanted, playing it o
Exactly that's why I leave HazRes or CNB before my ship would be destroyed when my crew is with me. I don't care much about the rebuy cost, but I wouldn't risk to loose them.
Not going to happen. You hire them then you pay them if they are in a station lounge telling war stories or put them in a fighter with your combat issues. If you left them at the station then there is another moment to learn about this game. In either case they get paid and they also take a percentage of your profits also taking half of your combat points going for combat Elite.
The good news is if one is not grinding for a rank unlocking the Guardian fighters comes in handy when taking on the best of the Thargoids while figuring out how to win the battle. Have fun!

Actually, I'd prefer it if we had a reason to hire more than one. Maybe different kinds of crew, a gunner, a pilot and engineer with corresponding extra pip (if maxed out) to engines shields or weapons. Or a small bonus to a system if not.
