Buying New Bridge Officer Problem

philman07 · January 2016

Every time I try and get a new engineering bridge officer, it always says that there aren't any available spaces for additional bridge officers, even though I have an extra available space. I've tried at least 3 times. Is there something I'm missing?

seems odd. Off the top of my head, is the Boff the proper faction? is your inventory full? (most items, even if they don't go to inventory, seem to bounce off the inventory) Are you sure you have extra room in your active boff roster for more?

It seems like the best way to start is to ask this, where are you trying to acquire the boff from?

I'm trying to get the bridge officer from the Earth Spacedock bridge officer requisition officer (Lt. Commander Elsa Mora). Inventory is well below full, and I'm pretty sure that I have extra room on my roster. I only have four bridge officers (2 tactical, 1 engineering, and 1 science; and of course, the second engineering slot is unused). (As for the two tactical officers, one of them is used in the tactical slot, and the other is used as the "Number One". Just to save some confusion.)

Just in case this helps any, my rank is Lt. Commander (13) and I'm using the "refit" Constitution Class.

I can't remember off hand the number of slots LT C's have available but if it were me I'd dump that extra tactical officer (you can always get another later) and see if that works.

Go to your status screen. Where you see yourself, your ship, and your bridge officers. Boffs for short. At the bottom of the list do you have a slot labeled no officer? If not then you have to wait to level up. Or dismiss one of the officers you have.

Sounds to me that your ship has more officers to fill than you have active. Probably because of the second tac officer.
