  79. Passenger Seat Persistence Improvement

  81.  
  82. This new feature works under specific conditions: the seat must not be destroyed and it must not be occupied by another player.
  83.  
  84. To ensure you can always reclaim your spot, we strongly recommend you reserve your seat.
  85.  
  86.  
  87. How to "Reserve" Your Passenger Seat
  88.  
  89. Reserving your seat with a Private Lock Code is the best way to guarantee your seat is available when you log back in.
  90.  
  91. Aim at your passenger seat & press P to open the Control Panel.
  92.  
  93. Navigate to the Devices tab & select the Lock Code option.
  94.  
  95. Enter a code. Be sure to save this code elsewhere!
  96.  
  97. Check the Private box to hide the code from other players in the GUI.
  98.  
  99. To use your reserved seat, simply attempt to occupy it and then enter your code when prompted.
  100.  
  101. Important Advice for Passengers
  102.  
  103. If your seat is destroyed or occupied by another player, you will be placed back into the location where you originally logged out. Reserve your seat to prevent this.
  104.  
  105. Coordinate with the Pilot: Upon logging back in, do not exit your seat immediately. Confirm with the pilot that the vessel is stationary. Running or walking on a moving vessel is not supported and may lead to unexpected results.
