Hello everyone!Just a quick note to talk about crew positions, we've got a lot ofcharacters assigned to Departments like Navigation, Medical, andSecurity, but if you check the crewroster there's not so many inCommand & Drive Room staff.Now this isn't a huge problem of course, as I know the Navigation andSecurity jobs are the clearest jobs to post about and theres a hugechance your characters will be pur forward for away missions etc, andthe Medical dept always has a lot of fun going on.But my problem is when I'm writing Action posts and want some DriveRoom / Bridge style exposition / explanation to happen with theCaptain, there's no characters I can have him interact with.We don't have "Star Trek" style bridge scenarios very often, butsometimes its necessary for them to set-up certain storylines. As myearlier Action posts needed Jed to interact with someone.So what I'm asking is that if anyone wants to convert theircharacters's jobs to a Drive Room related job it'd really help out,and save me from inventing several characterless NPC's that we don'tcare about.Jobs I'm thinking of are Navigation Officer (plotting directions,coordinates etc), Radar operator (the one that shouts out if theresand enemy incoming), communications officer (the one who tells thecaptain that someone's on the line, and has to put them on hold), andCaptain's PA / human target practice.Its not as if we really post much about everyday jobs anyhow, but ifyou want your character to get mentioned in Action posts a bit moreoften, transfer to the Drive room!Contact me, Andy Longman or Becca if you want your character to switchjobs.
