==Controversies==

As a feature of Star Citizen, the lunch button became a magnet for controversies; mostly surrounding its addition to the game mechanics beyond the original [[StarCitizen:Stretch Goals|stretch goals]]. Prominent community members protest the addition of the button, stating: "The Lunch Button is feature creep!",<ref>#Wiki 10:52 AM 18/11/2016 DuskFyre</ref> insisting that CIG should focus on more important tasks "like [[StarCitizen:pets]] and space plants!" <ref>#Wiki 10:53 AM 18/11/2016 DocAndy</ref> The controversy increased when it was discovered that the Lunch Button idea was invented by the writers of the television series Far Out Space Nuts{{WP|Far_Out_Space_Nuts}}.
