That looks great, well done!

I think we should make sure that all old job titles via the PDA system are represented in the new system: For example passenger should get all of the other job titles too (off-duty, visitor, assistant, ...) and then also remove all the duplicate PDAs.

Here are a couple bugs I found with the two systems coexisting:

When selecting PDA with a custom job title it shows the character name as "Unknown" (Long standing bug but a good reason why we should make sure to replace it with the new job title system):

On top of that it overwrites the selected job title:

So in my opinion:

• The job title should only be set via the new system
• Any PDA change should just be cosmetic and not alter the job title at all

Also remember to add this hotfix so all job titles actually show up properly.

Inside the [ic] section in Resources/ConfigPresets/_Byrd/ByrdConfig.toml add:

id_job_length = 36 # Raised from 30

And another small nitpick, it looks like right click -> debug -> set outfit doesn't set the job title properly:
