That bothers me to no end. And I don't even have the power to re-assign him to another bridge station...

    What rank are you? And what first officer chair? We have duty stations but nothing says "XO" or "Number 1" or "First Officer" I've seen.

    But to assign different ones to different stations, go to the Assignments tab. Press K (I think brings up a screen that then can go to the Assignments tab). Either K or J.

    On the Fed side... yes.

    On the Klingon side... no.

    I was wondering if it was just the Klingons didn't like my alien. lol

    I am commander. I have the "Delta" bridge, which is kind of a cross between voyager and tng. There are 2 prominent charis (like voyager) and my freaking ensign thinks he is all badass sitting there.

    Yeah, I noticed my new Ensigns are at the primary Con and Engineering stations on my Bridge too, while my First Officer and my Chief Engineer are scanning bulkheads and repairing conduits. I guess they still haven't perfected the placements for these yet.

    I think we should have the options to assign positions to our Bridge Officers to help the system place them properly. Currently the game doesn't know who my First Officer is because there's no way to define that.

    Therefor I suggest that they add Positions to our Assignments UI. The Positions available should be:

    First Officer
    Security Chief
    Con
    Navigation
    Astrometrics Chief
    Chief Engineer
    Transporter Chief
    and Doctor


    This would not only help with placing them on the bridge it would also be a handy guide to choosing the right BOffs to come down with you on away missions.

    Also, we still need a way to put our stand-in officers and security teams in the proper uniform. My suggestion to create a Standard Uniform for your crew is still on the table. Pick it up and run with it guys.


    :cool:

    Note: On Tribble, KDF captains can now see their actual BOffs on their bridge. Of course some BOffs may be missing but for the most part they will all be there. It's coming soon guys. Be patient.

    Gotcha. I thought your issue was different than the one that the bridge people seem to be switched. Example: Your Lt. Commander station is over in the corner little tube against the wall while the ensign station which only gives you one ability is that big huge console in the middle of the room with the person sitting.

    I think that is one of those goof ups that the only way to get people in the right spot on the bridge would mess up your space abilities by having the wrong person at the wrong console.

    They need to fix the bridges is really the only option.

    Yes, Klingons will now have their own version of Exploration missions (though I still don't like that title). There is little exploration involved though. There's no anomalies to collect and almost all of the missions involve some sort of combat. Oh, and those Bridge Officer ground abilities will finally have a use.

    And yes, Klingons will now be able to access both the Big Dig and the Crystaline Entity Fleet Actions as well as a couple of Fleet Actions of their own.


    :cool:

    I always thought they should have away team "profiles" for you to choose with an equipment screen coming up as you're preparing a mission. That way you could have "standard duty" uniforms be in the normal uniforms, perhaps with concealable palm-sized weapons (where going down heavily armed either wouldn't be appropriate or could perhaps cause a diplomatic incident or the like). Then there would be "assault duty" where they have full armor and heavy weapons and then there would be "off duty" and civilian clothes (fear picard wearing his leotard and carrying his saddle! or shatner in his jeans and "go climb a rock" shirt. :D )
