I can think of one reason to have crew in the gunboats that are used as turrets: training the pilots.

Thank for your video. Could you please make playlist video about the simplest and cheapest fabric platforms. For beginners it will be good. For example: To gain energy cell we only build this, this and this, made by TEL, because it’s cheapest components and so on.

I think the main impact of crew is repairing systems and hull over time. I never thought it would inrcease dps. I would let my AI do the aiming even today (as long as it is not the actual X4 Ship AI xD)

I noticed that these gunboat 'hats' that larger ships can wear also will fire missiles (but not torpedos) at least in low attention mode. Making them an even bigger upgrade for whatever ship you mount them on.

This makes me wonder if a frigate might be more effective than a gunboat in this role.

Only really makes sense if you use a missile mod that removed resupply. otherwise that is a big hassle. But i will try that out, just for fun.

My crew simply exists for more immersion. Shame we can't see them handle the turrets like in a WWII B17 Bomber. 😅

I don't think service crew do anything other than affect rate of hull repair (M and above only), surface element repairs, and low attention mining speed even on current patch. They are a somewhat neglected part of the game.

Just started looking into this setup (Gunboat to add guns) and I saw the "meta" of the Jian. My issue is, I don't have Terran faction, nor the want to spend so much MORE on gunboats. TY for the information and chart at the end cause this did help me get something right away (and be frugal about it) and plan for replacement in the future! (just started playing X4. on my current first playthru and enjoying the HELL out of it) also, what exactly his "attention" with High and Low?

The game simulates the direct environment where the player or a observed object is in another detail than things that are far away. I cant say what is the difference in the algorithm, but I guess since alot of things going on in the hole universe they are used to reduce processing time of the hole simulation while keeping the immersion for the player up.

I read not so long ago a long steam review of the role of crew. Pretty sure turret usage was not on the list. Appart from hull repair, I remember it could affect certain scripts, for example the fire avoidance script (boosting when attacked) alongside the pilot (and even in those cases, the pilot skill was making 70% of the total weight). But the crew was involved in less actions than the pilot overall.

I think opinions differ on this. But from what I have read is that the Captain has a much larger Influence on the overall performance than the crew. Do you think it is worth testing again with ships with very high crew numbers?

Could this be explained by the flak aoe effect allowing for less missed shots from the turrets and thus a higher dps (even if on paper the boron turret should be more effective)? I had also noticed in the past that Boron turrets on M sized ships are actually bugged because they are aiming bellow the ennemy hitbox, maybe this bug is still present

Looks like the thresher is still bugged in 7.0 beta3. I just confirmed it by trying to get turrets to shoot at a laser tower (miss all the time if the tower is in front of you). This is only with M sized boron ships, it works fine with L or stations. This leads me to belive it is due to the special turret animation on boron M sized ships (turret hides inside ship when offlineand comes out in combat)
