Ability to hire different Overseer or other staff NPC's?
With Omega update, how do I hire a different Overseer or other staff for base? I do not want to be stuck with the first one I hire just to complete the quests to get my base setup quickly. One of the things that I really liked about this game is that I can change out the staff all the time. Sometimes I find a new Overseer that I like, and I want to change any of the staff that I find. Where do I do this now??? Hopefully this option was not removed, and they will still appear in the galaxies for the players to pick and choose the look they want for their staff.

Yeah I've just checked out my first new space station and the little bar area where you could recruit people for your base is gone and I can't find a replacement. Where are you supposed to get them now?

These bar areas also had a character you could complete a little quest for, and AtlasPass doors with supplies behind them. Are they gone too?

I've heard the overseers and scientists are just walking around the stations now.

I'm still learning words on my current save and have spoken to all of the NPCs I could find one four new stations, I have not had one be available to recruit - which for me is good, because it used to annoy me when I was seeking words and became a mini game to try to avoid talking to the correct one.

ETA Maybe there are still those at trade posts on planets - but think they did not previously include an exocraft specialist or the overseer

I run across them on Space Station and the big Trading Outposts on Planets.

It's annoying AF because I'm trying to learn words, and then I stumble across a Scientist or overseer and have to click through all of their dialogue

You don't get an icon if you're looking for a DIFFERENT Overseer or Scientist to REPLACE the one you have

From the Orbital patch notes:

"Fixed an issue that could incorrectly cause additional base specialists (such as the Overseer or Farmer) to appear at Space Stations even after one had been hired."

It seems that we may not run into any specialists again after hiring. In other words, wysiwyg.
