FT: fitting crew to hull

Even before the change in FB2 about the amount of hull
boxes allocated to a ship design I had already been favoring
abut 25% devoted to hull (halfway between weak and average).
This puts the DCPs 5 apart.

I've come into some problems trying to fit the Damage Control
Parties into some hull box amounts if I don't follow some exact
percentage.  How would you put 12 DCPs in a ship with 50 hull 
boxes?	The first 2 DCPs 5 apart and the rest 4 apart?	Like so:
OOOOXOOOOXOOO
XOOOXOOOXOOOX
OOOXOOOXOOOX
OOOXOOOXOOOX

I think this is better than being cheesy with putting 2 DCPs at the 
end when using hull sizes ending in 4 (i.e., 84, 124, 144, etc).
(not that I won't name anyone who does this...Steve...oops)
