Fellows, this is not new, but I have a fix you can do to remove much of the crew problem. I wrote this long ago, and it works.

To cut your fatigue rates, edit your basic.cfg (BACK IT UP FIRST) and replace the following section with what you see below:

Better yet, divide the FatigueStep by 10 and also the CoefFatigue by 10 to have fatigue work over a patrol rather than a shift.
