Request: Give ETA for when crew in transit are expected to arrive

[Falcrack]

Would be nice when we have crew that are greyed out because they are in transit to know approximately when they will arrive at their destination. When you hover the mouse over their name, it currently says "This person is still in transit". Maybe after that sentence, perhaps add the phrase "Will arrive in XX minutes", with "XX" being the time in minutes until they will arrive.

Huh. Isn't it always like ten seconds or so?

No, depends on distance. I always make sure, both ships are next to each other.

Fair enough. I just tested it. Seems like distance is only important for service crew and marines but not for pilots.

If you assign a person as pilot who was a marine or service crew, they take a while to get to their assigned ship. But, if you use the "exchange captains" button, it is instantaneous.

If this is the case, I sure hope transit time is tied to the research level of teleportation. If you have galaxy wide, it better be instantaneous

I think I did clock a bit over 5 minutes for service crew transfer between Tharka's Fall and Oort Cloud.
