Hmmm... It sounds interesting but I don't know...
I would like something like Hitman suggested a while back. Maybe the only way is to go through an external program. But in that case, it suddenly doesn't seems worth it. It gets too messy. Maybe if it could be incorporated in SH3 Commander, so that there is one app to rule 'em all. But that's not likely to be happening.

Even if the player wants to drag a crewmember around for exceptional situations (Attacks), could you make the crew rotate in those 2 watches

Sublynx also provided an interesting solution (#142). I had some logically and programming concerns about it, but I can't recall what it was. Maybe we could work out something based on his thought.

I've never thought about it. Is it wrong as it is?
I guess it's possible.
