Feature request: passengers transfer
Posted: Mon Jan 30, 2023 12:35 pm
I had taxi missions which occupied all the passenger cabins that my ship could have and a sweet one was listed in the BBS, in the direction where I was heading with only 1 person for $4500. The vehicle I wanted to upgrade to was listed with very little money after I'd buy enough cabins for my active taxi missions and the extra one for the mission I wanted. I thought I'd get taxi & cargo missions until I get enough shields & a weapon good enough to finish the combat mission I had.Well! I went through it and the new passenger for the taxi mission I just agreed to, but the other cabins had the unoccupied cabin icon. I thought maybe when I undock the passengers will transfer to my new ship, but I got comms from unhappy people and there was no taxi mission listed anymore and all the extra passenger cabins had the unoccupied cabin icon, whereas a few seconds before 1 had the occupied icon.
Is there a way for the passengers to transfer when buying a new ship and that ship can welcome enough passengers for the taxi missions? I'm sorry if the idea was already brought up but I made a search for "passenger cabin" before creating this thread and I didn't see something that made me think it was.
Thank you for your consideration
Update 1
I thought maybe cheating to the other ship then setting my money to the same low amount would do the trick, but on 20220203-win it leads to the same failure.
