Problem MMU's defined as female or male / Dead MMU's

[Yoda]

2 questions;
First, I recently used David413's fleet to perform a mission with 5 MMU crewmembers.
I have been however unable to define which MMU is Male or Female; is there a easy way of defining this instead of random selection ???

Second, during my mission 2 MMU members performed a 30 minute EVA and were brought back into the ship succesfully.

After landing however when I "un-boarded" the crew and had them take their suits off for a group picture by the Orbiter the two crewmembers that performed the EVA during the mission were both Dead as a door-nail.

Is this a bug were their oxygen-flow continues to count down eventhough they are back into the ship after their EVA ???

Would be helpful to return with a Healthy crew.

Anybody have any thoughts ???

Scientific and technician UMMU's are always female, all the other are male.As for the bug I have never encountered it in any UMMU ship, so it may be a shuttle fleet bug.

Thanks for the info.
Maybe David can shed some light on the dead UMMU matter.

No men can be scientists or technicians, and no women can be captains, security, doctors etc?

That's discrimination... :thumbsdown:

Hardly seems worth it to make it possible to customize the gender of the crew. Certainly not "discrimination" that this particular crew is made up that way.

I just define all my UMMU's as passengers, so they're all the same... The Clone army shall prevail! Unless I fail at reentry again.

Okay...............this is getting just a bit off topic here !

You could easily make male or female versions of each class. Take a look at the UMMU 2.0 documentation. You'd just have to have a notation in the title to differentiate, such as SciM for a male Scientist and SciF for a female scientist, and so on. Then you use the XO2X line to specify which mesh UMMU will display when they take their suit off. For example, you could have the SciM become the guy with glasses, and the SciF become the blond girl. Dan makes it very easy to completely customize, you've just got to do a little work. For Shuttle Fleet, I made my own UMMU classes: Cdr, Plt, and MSp, and they all use the EMU mesh. For my future/DGIV scenarios, I have classes for tourists, flight directors, truck drivers, even a janitor! Because, as Tom Hanks said in Apollo 13, even the guy sweeping the floor is honored to be a part of it. Have a go and have some fun! I will post a more detailed instruction on how to make male/female functions when I get home from work.

And think of those dead people who can be neither...

Discrimination?
EVA the second pilot from the XR2, then press "take spacesuit off"...

:blink:

Crossdresser!

...then press it again, an you'll get another spacesuit, a standart one (it is an old UMMU bug with non-standars spacesuits).

It is a little-known tradition in NASA-- after someone performs an EVA, the shuttle crew kills them.

Good one "eveningsky339"

Submariner is right, I easily created even black skinned mission specialist - prototype of Bluford, McNair, etc... editing .dds, making black skin, etc.
