Frackin Crew Size

Description
This addon changes the crew size for Frackin Universe ships, including the byos ship (for which this was originally made), to 24 by default.

I limited this version to 24 crew to keep some of the required choice that comes with picking your crew. Too high of a crew size lets you easily get a crew member for every situation, pulling focus away from the other possible solutions that Frackin Universe provides.

I do, however, realize that some people may want their crew to be capable of anything, or perhaps just want a larger crew in general. Because of this, I made another version that allows you to have 99 crew - an even 100, including yourself - at the following link.

https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1813363209

This DOES work with existing ships. Uninstalling this with more crew than your ship would hold will cause some crew to teleport away and become inactive, but they don't disappear. Placing crew beds will return as many as 12 of them in a byos ship.

Crew beds do nothing with this installed, but shouldn't cause problems to place either (If you just like the look of them).

In regular ships, this mod makes it possible to have up to 24 crew in any tier of the ship. Once you reach the correct number of crew for a ship upgrade you will receive the license, but you still have the ability to recruit new crew without having upgraded.

This works with custom ship mods, though I am unsure how it would interact with ship mods that have non-default crew sizes.

If a ship never has the option to become a byos ship then it won't be affected by this mod, because it skipped the step where this mod would apply to it.
This means that you have to have had Frackin Universe installed while making your character. It also means that, if you have a custom race mod, you need to have also had the FU BYOS Modded Race Patch installed when you made your character.

If you don't use Frackin Universe and want something like this, I have that too: https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2563727459
Please note that that mod works a bit differently than this one.

Please inform me of any crashes or addon conflicts that you believe to be caused by this. Consider rating as well, if you like the mod!


Hope you enjoy!

@Orifan1 Not that I'm aware of. But you can just use this or another mod that increases crew, then limit yourself - so if you only have 1 bed, only recruit one crew member, and so on.

is there a mod that increases the cap, but still keeps beds relevant?

"A statement which implies there are >24 crewmembers in F.U.
- truly a terrifying prospect to consider."

Nvm I think I figured it out by reading

Does this cancel out the crew size limit in FU, based on how many crew beds you have? From what I understand I only have 1 bed, so I should only be allowed to have 1. Yet I have 2 crew members.

Okay! Thanks for the explanation.
SerpentsBlight  [author] 1 Apr, 2022 @ 3:42pm 
@Patient Zero No, there isn't a way to do that. As far as I know, the inactive crew tab is only there in case your crew limit ever drops below the amount of crew members you have. It's not intended to be something the player uses to send crew away. This mod should render the tab useless, since your crew size should never increase or decrease while you have this installed.

@SerpentsBlight Is there a way that I can move crew to inactive at will through crew tab? I've been looking around and am only seeing people remove crew beds and other upgrades that grant larger crew sizes...

hot damn thanks so much dude!! :steamhappy:

@NutsAndBees I actually decided to go ahead and put together that vanilla version of the mod. It works a little bit differently just cause this mod uses some of the BYOS changes from FU to apply, but I hope this works for you and anyone else that wants it:
