At high crew count auto-assign does not properly assign crew.

As shown in the included screenshot, even with over 300 spare crew available, the auto-assign system has not assigned them to the mechanic job.

 

And let me tell you, having to manually click on the assign button over 200 times is very little fun.

I can confirm that this is also true... auto assign pretty much just assigns sergeants

I've not really tested this, since I don't use generic crewmen, but are you sure auto assign assigns generic crewmen? Ever?

Ive had many problems with auto assign crew on my bigger ships
