Questions and suggestions

This game is really nice but is there a trading system in place? I met a merchant ship but couldn't figure out how to trade with them.
Also, I think it would be dead useful if you could scroll through your crew rather than having to click through them separately.
And you need to stop shuttles leaving crew on derelicts, they keep passing out from lack of oxygen. ?

There is a TRADE button in the lower left. (Similar as the SALVAGE button on derelict ships).

Cheers, I found it a few hours after posting this! Should pay more attention I guess.....

Agreed, crew not refilling their O2 on derelicts is SUPER incovenient. Also, crew need to be selectable from the main screen similar to how each one is listed at the top of the screen UI at all times.

the crew automatically loads O2 when the resources are transferred, the charge is manual only when you go to explore. I think in part it is right that during the exploration the reload must be manual, it adds an additional sense of character management. Obviously this is my opinion

I think it might have been a glitch, sometimes if you undraft the shuttle it leaves the airlock and just randomly flies about. Sorted now though.

I also didn't realise that you could salvage for resources (food, water) and salvage components separately. That's improved my playthrough immensely.

I had a similar situation where one of the crew members died during salvaging; she didn't keep the distance to the ship in mind so she ran out of oxygen and sleep before she could return. Bit frustrating.
