So a couple of pieces of feedback.


You really want to put a Water Reclamator in your grow room, you can really add to your water production.



I really like the layout of your manufacturing room, you have one air scrubber in there, I'd add a second one because even a small fire will make the area incredibly toxic.


One thing that's really helped with logistics is storage bins and rules.


So for example I have two storage bins in my manufacturing room. and one has a rule that all raw materials will be stored there, then the other bin contains finished products.


I have a bin in my food section, where I store Fertillizer and water and finished fruits veggies meats and meals.


In the med bay I have a small bin where I keep Med Kits IV's and other medical goods. I also put a small bin by my shuttle that I put in a rule that weapons go into it only.



Why?


Because your crew will spend less time moving goods to empty bins willy nilly and as well it speeds up things like manufacturing or food production.


Make sure you build a scanner, It allows you to pin point hard points. So I built a Scanner and I can pretty accurately take out the enemies guns right off of the bat.



The fleet thing is interesting I tried it on a couple of builds. On one I made a gun boat, that was simply a flying arsenal with a shuttle bay, and I moved most of my high skilled gunners and shield operators over. It was a decent idea, but we spent a lot of time transfering essentials to the ship like food and water.


I tried it on another build where I made a ship that was strictly a manufacturing ship with all of my industrial ranked people and I made everything on that ship. Because it was a small ship it was easy to manage power and life support.


I did add to that fleet with a really small ship that I reclaimed, I added a bunch of mining pods, a shuttle bay and storage bins and sent my minors over to it.



I guess the rest of the crew got jealous because I gave them a really luxurious crew quarter area.
