Simple crew organization

  1. Make sure everyone has completed basic input setup.
  2. State the next quest, purchase or island before splitting up.
  3. Assign one player to track money and another to protect key equipment.
  4. Regroup before a boss or travel step so no one is left unprepared.
Patch-sensitive: Matchmaking flow, invite behavior and disconnect recovery should be checked against the current build.
