This update adds more individuality to each crew member. They now have specific likes, dislikes, and unique traits.

General Traits

Crew members now have various traits that significantly impact their behavior. These traits fall into different categories such as General, Social, Free Time, and more. They influence aspects like work speed, movement speed, sleep needs, and much more.

Likes and Dislikes

Crew members now have personal preferences for activities and interior items. Depending on whether they like or dislike something, their enjoyment will affect their satisfaction levels while interacting with those activities or items.

Recruit Crew Generator

The crew generator has been improved. It can now create new crew members with a specified rating and balance their traits, skills, and fitness levels, allowing you to select members that best fit the current needs of your ship.

Work Speed

Crew work speed has been standardized with a unified calculation, now displayed in the UI. Various factors affect work speed, such as traits, mood, and skills. You can now easily track these factors.

Interior Item Efficiency

To keep your crew occupied, an efficiency system has been added to many interior items. This impacts productivity and can be improved by crew members with the right skills. For example, increasing greenhouse efficiency requires botany skills, while the engine demands astronaut skills.

Skill Requirements

In addition to efficiency updates, skill requirements have been adjusted. They are now displayed alongside tasks wherever relevant. Construction and maintenance tasks now require at least level 2 in the appropriate skills, with higher levels improving task speed.
There is also a full overview of what can be achieved with each skill.

Fitness Schedule

You can now schedule dedicated fitness time for crew members to prevent a drop in fitness levels, which can result in slower work performance.
