Crew Member

Crew Members are hired by the player via Trade, and perform tasks on the ship. The crew has the same survival requirements as civilians, except for being able to wear spacesuits in the absence of an oxygen atmosphere.

Basic

Basic crew install and dismantle equipment and move all items (including loading/unloading containers). They also operate most crew stations.

Scientist
