Hello! I played this for a little while and I love the concept! I especially love that I can play it straight from the browser. Just one question: how do I boost the morale of the crew? I seemed to really struggle with that part and once it started going down, I wasn't sure how to get it up again?

Update for you, Alex — Fixed the morale bug. Morale used to be a death spiral: once it dropped, you basically needed power, staffing, and life support all perfect at once just to stop the bleeding, let alone recover. I changed three things: stopping active shortages now earns a small recovery drip even before everything's perfect, crew reinforcements can arrive at 35 morale instead of 55, and resignations from rock-bottom morale ease off once you're down to 2 crew instead of being able to empty the station. Tested it by crashing a station to 8% morale and 3 crew — it climbs back to full morale and crew in about 7.5 in-game days now. Live in the browser version, give it another shot and let me know how it feels!
