Easy Captain Switching
« on: June 05, 2013, 10:06:14 pm »
Now I'm not sure if this has been recommended before or not, but I feel like an easy way to switch the role of captain around would be nice. I've just noticed that sometimes on more populated servers, it can be a little hard and awkward trying to move the captain seat around between two people. Sometimes, when someone leaves the spot a random immediately takes it leaving the person no place to go as he cant return to his ship. Perhaps like a small transfer captain button next to people's names on your ship would be great. Click to switch your two spots and you're done.

+1, this has always been a nuisance, even in competitive play.

Also non-captain switching. Maybe when clicking on someone's name in a crew slot, one of the options could be "propose swap" or something, which shows a message somewhere to the recipient. They can accept or deny by clicking the sender's name and choosing the appropriate option in the popup.
