Officers

.

Your department heads
Your ship is staffed by four officers who manage your various systems.

Hasting Locke is your executive officer. He is in charge of the bridge and sidewalls.

Deidre Grace is your chief engineer in charge of engineering.

Miranda Stark is your tactical/weapons officer. She manages your weapons and counter-missiles.

George Weatherly is your tactical defense officer in charge of lasers and ECM.

Upgrading officers
Upgrading officers does not increase the individual officers' effect on your systems; rather, upgrading officers allow you to install and upgrade higher level components. It is important to keep pace with upgrading your officers, as higher level upgrades can take huge amounts of time to complete.
