Hello, when you have a big ships with a lot of crews, it is VERY rare that more than 50% of my crew goes out and collect stuff outside despite having "jobs available"
Here you can see on my 3.4k+ crews ship that barely ~350 of them are currently out and gathering stuff. Most of them are just hanging in their quarters not doing anything while there is plenty of things to do

Still pretty far from that 2k limit tho, I have plenty of hatches around the front of the ship.. one every ~8 blocks

I think part of what's going on here is that (as far as I can tell) the game intentionally queues less than one crew per resource collection job, since often times leaving/entering the ship takes much longer than moving multiple resources; if it takes 100 crew 30 seconds to clean up a section of resources and 200 crew 25 seconds, it's probably not worth queuing those extra crew in case something else comes up that they could be doing.

Ohhh that's pretty interesting to know, however there were originally roughly over 18k resources to pick up in total, I'm fairly certain ~300 crews is probably not the most optimized in this scenario

If those are the numbers you're getting, then yeah something else is going on. Might be related to crew tick cap? Not sure.
