Crew capacity stat in parts description

[KevinTMC]

In 0.21.1, there is a "Minimum Crew to Operate" stat in the pop-up information for each pod. It would be helpful to have a "Maximum Crew"/"Crew Capacity" stat to go along with it. (Sometimes this information can be found hiding in the Description, sometimes not.)

I seem to remember it being there before, in fact...or am I just imagining that?

It's still there last time I checked. But idk. :|

In the bottom right of the part description popup in the VAB/SPH, there already is a field for Crew Capacity (for parts capable of holding crew).

I'm not seeing it:

0.21.1, downloaded from the store, running without mods.

The "minimum crew to operate" stat is a minimum, not a maximum. I agree, I'd like a visible max capacity stat.

I think I know why I am seeing the max crew, and you guys are not - it's due to the update from 0.20 to 0.21.

In 0.20, all stock crew pods were defined in their CFGs as "CommandPods" - the min and max quantities are visible.

In 0.21 all stock pods are now re-defined in their CFGs as "Part" - the max quantities are now hidden.

If you download the latest B9 Aerospace pack for 0.21, you'll find that bac still uses the old CommandPod reference (along with the new SAS), so you WILL see max quantity.

A workaround would be to manually edit all of your pod CFGs in 0.21 from "Part" to "CommandPod", then the numbers should show up.

So does that mean we have a bug on our hands, and the thread should be reclassified? Or was the change purposeful?

It would be really nice to see that fixed.

[qeveren]

I was wondering where that went! It would be very nice to have it back again, I agree.

It's most likely a bug. Just post it in the support forum to make sure they know.
