Trading permits the exchange of any 
Inactive and 
Highly Inactive crew members located in the ship's storage rooms. Reported character exchange goods include random NERON Projects and even a finished PILGRED Reactor (for an inactive 
Raluca).
Bug: The in-game description states that inactive characters can be traded from the Bridge, and highly inactive ones from anywhere. However, this is currently false; they must be in a storage room just like any other tradable object.
To get characters in position for trading, characters with the 
Solid and 
Wrestler skills are necessary, as they may kick characters from room to room using their Kick them out ! action. The cost is reduced to 1 
for inactive targets. However, since one cannot choose in which adjacent room the inactive character will be kicked to, it may take a large number of attempts. See #Chances of Success below.
Level 3 characters with the ability to guard also help to direct their movement.
Note: Above mentioned note needs confirmation as some people have experienced that guarding doesn't work.
Chances of Success
The table below gives, for each starting room and each available number of tries (which typically depends on the available), the probability of success.
As an example, moving someone from the bridge, there are 45% chances to succeed in at most 10 tries. On the other hand, starting in the Garden or in Center Alpha Turret gives already 50% of success from the first attempt.
Red cells indicate chances under 1/3, green indicates chances over 2/3.
The last column tells, if you are ready to burn any amount of to move an inactive to storage, the average number of tries it would take. For example, moving a Raluca from the Engine Room to any storage room takes on average between 6 and 7 attempts. Note that due to the nature of the random process, In many cases you may need very few tries, but in some cases the number of tries will grow really high, so overall the average is not a "typical" number of tries.
