Why are fleet carriers so absurdly filthy? Does none of that weekly upkeep go towards paying janitorial staff?

[Dragsham]

Kk I'm not one for destructive carriers sod that!
But!
Don't clean em
Don't annual service em
Things start to go wrong..jump times go up. Fsd fails to kick in and is offline for 24 hours for repairs.
Pads on top out of service.
Lights not working. (Not all)
Smoke coming from vents due to inefficient maintenance.
List is endless!
Now out in the black an option for calling a service team from brewer Corp to give her the once over has to be an option albeit expensive!
Just a thought.

If you think your carrier looks dirty, you should see it just before you land your ship! Luckily the crew cleans up most of the mess before you go up the elevator. That's why they are all standing around doing nothing... looking "innocent".

General - Reducing the price of maintaining an aircraft carrier.

When I go in on Thursday I see a notification that the payment for the aircraft carrier has been withdrawn. I suggest you do it as a billing statement. Going in on Thursday I pay this invoice in time and I am charged only 50% of the payment (all this is automatic, going into the game is a...

I think it's just fees and surcharges to bleed you dry. No extra services. Are there even people - where does the trash come from?

Take a look on your Fleet Carrier, then you will have an answer, won't you?

Tbh i would love an option to customise the carrier in a very modular way compared to now.

Ie, as per the OP spend credits on keeping a tidy ship or ignoring that and leaving it rugged.

Install modules in set slots where you decide what is installed where, akin to homeworld etc.

I realise that it will take some work, but being able to see your ships in a hangar on the carrier...

Anytime you dock on your carrier you can hear voice comms stating some pipe broke or something's wrong somewhere on the ship. Oddly once I disembark everyone is just sitting around in the bar area. Bums the lot of them.

That's what an hourly salary gets you.

Yes if you are only paying for an hour the odds of catching them working are bad pay by the day instead.

Thats what Political Prisoners, Slaves and Imperial Slaves are for.
Always keep 5-10 of each on board and your FC stays squeeky clean.
I keep the Political Prisoners in the Gimp Room at the rear of my FC, For reasons ....

That's the problem, they've previously stated they quit playing long ago. No idea what's going on now, other than articles. Still complaining regardless.

Me, I don't care about the looks. If it doesn't affect functionality, it doesn't matter. I suppose that's why modern games don't interest me. Too much eye candy, not enough content.
