Soldiers / sciencists / enggineer transfering between bases

You can transfer soldiers from the equip screen.

It would be better if you could do it from the personel screen. Like when you're selecting assigment, other bases might be added to the list.

Scientist and engineers - you cannot transfer those AFAIK.

[StellarRat]

Why would you want to? You can just fire them at the current base and hire them at the new one. They don't have any personalized characteristics like they did in Apocalypse.

[Ishantil]

Because you already paid for them.

[lemm]

Maybe if you fire them (or your base gets raided), however many boffins you lost could be represented by a negative integer in parenthesis on the hiring window to indicate that you still have that many on payroll for the rest of the month.

[StellarRat]

Because you already paid for them.

Yeah, but you can fire them at the end of the month and not have to pay their salaries then rehire at a different location.

So...what your saying has the exact same effect, why not have the ability move scientists in the game if you want? And not have to worry about your timing? In reality, if your technicians and scientists were with you for a while, they would be used to the environment and you'd want teams to stay together.

Hiring and re-hiring them seems like an awkward solution to me.

[GizmoGomez]

I agree; they should be able to be transferred.

[thothkins]

I agree with them being transferred too. Firing them just to avoid paying their salaries seems like an exploit. But more importantly, what about their little fictional families?

You've just left them all broke after they have worked a huge amount of hours helping to save the planet.

Perhaps the aliens have invaded to prevent this brand of capitalism infecting the galaxy
