Space food: what gameplay do you envision for things like kitchens in ships? Do we have any food-based gameplay, other than the Mix Master on the Starliner?

No, I don't think we have any specific food-based stuff. We talked about this early on, and yes, it's realistic that you have to eat in the universe, but also it's not fun at all, as anyone who played any of those early Ultima games can attest. I remember in Ultima IV, I think it was four, you had to feed your party every hundred steps or something. And the most efficient way to do that was just to buy a bunch of sticks of butter. And you would just give your companions butter. And that satisfied them.
