Trident Passengers List

Jan 22, 2013 TheExiled link
In the Tactical menu, or even on the HUD, there should be a list of those who are docked with you. If someone is not in a turret, there's no way of knowing if they are in your cappie.

You can look at the sector menu list in PDA, but it's still the source of many awkward "Why arent we going yet" moments, so yeah, needs to be fixed

That doesn't always work. If there's another cap ship or station you can't tell who is where.

Do /gunner list

I do think turret gunner stuff should be on the HUD or PDA somewhere though.

To adhere to KISS approach, add all "passengers" UNDER the gunner list, without a turret. Like another turret slot, but saying "Passengers" instead of Turret-N.

and "/gunner list" should also list those docked but not in any turret, as above outlined.

and I would go further: allow the pilot to assign who is in what turret. we have a /dismiss command that takes them out of a turret but does not eject them from the ship (thanks devs!), but a pilot should have control of the duty roster aboard a capship.

Add to THIS: a helm position. that player takes flight controls for as long as the owner cares to let them. the owner can take it back at any time to prevent unwanted joyrides. Even if the owner is still trapped aboard their ship, this would be a cool feature, say if the owner needed to be afk...

oh, and please add a "weapons hold" and "weapons free" command for the owner so turret gunners can't trigger unwanted temp KOS's

I would really love these features! Really soon (TM)

While we're throwing in requests for capship gunners. How about adding a couple events so plugins can be written to fill in the gaps or allow captains more flexibility in managing their crew.

At the moment, it doesn't even tell you at all when someone comes on board your ship, which DOES happen for smaller ships using the /gunner invite command.
