I started playing Starfinder, as GM, about two years ago at the place I was working. Unfortunately, the workplace moved, and I decided not to go with it. So, I've got the core rule book, but nothing more. I'd love to play.
I read before playing, a criticism that being the ship's engineer was boring. So I decided as GM to make the ship's computer, also the ship's engineer. And play them as an android NPC that never leaves the ship. It was working out really well (his name we Fe-O, and he was a classic sci-fi gorilla with a TV set for a head) he would fill the rolls of engineer, and computer, and would also call players back to the ship if there was an emergency. This was a great tool when a player couldn't make it, the story would continue as if they had to rush back to the ship because Fe-O called and the rest of the party carried on.
