Crew Members
- See also: Companions and Features
Crew function much like Companions, but are more limited. For example, they can't be romanced and don't have unique quests, like the Constellation Companions.
Overview
Who are Crew Members?
Crew can consist of hired help you encounter along your travels and/or companions from Constellation. You can recruit them to work for you at your outposts, on your ships, or as followers. Potential crew members can be found throughout the Settled Systems, especially in bars.
How Do I Hire Crew?
You can talk with and hire crew by approaching them and pressing [E] on PC or [A] on Xbox. Before hiring, you can view what skills a crew member may have from the top right of the dialogue menu.
How to I Manage my Crew?
You can use the Crew Roster to view crew members, skills, and assign crew members to ships and outposts. You can also unassign them either through diaglogue or through the Crew Roster. To access the Crew Roster, press [Tab] on PC or [Menu] on Xbox. Select the Ship tab on the bottom left of the screen with [E] on PC or [A] on Xbox and then press [C] on PC or [Y] on Xbox to view the roster.
How many Crew members can I have?
The maximum crew you can have assigned to a ship is dictated by several things. Whichever is the lesser of: The combined Crew Capactiy on your Reactor, Weapon, Engine, and Shield modules.

Note: You can only assign Crew to landed ships, so you will not be able to assign Crew to your ship if you are flying it. Additionally, you can only assign Crew to outposts that have a Crew Station built at them.
