Patch 0.9.3

0.9.3 Co-Pilots

Our second major summer update introduces a feature we’ve wanted to roll out for a while: Co-Pilots. Starting at level 10, pilots can head over to the Crew Lounge on Gemini Station and hire a co-pilot.

Co-pilots have their own attributes that stack with installed mods and typically have greater stats than mods. The only catch is co-pilots are unique and can only be employed by a single ship. Players can hire up to 3 crew, but can only have 1 activated co-pilot at a time. Once a co-pilot has been hired, they’ll no longer appear in the Crew Lounge.

Players can also fire co-pilots they’re no longer needing. Unemployed co-pilots will make their way back to the Crew Lounge and eventually appear back on the available list.
