Engineering Quick-Start Guides
Here are some basic recommended tasks for each of the engineering roles.
Technical Assistant
Station Engineer
Atmospheric Technician
- Grab equipment from your atmospheric technician locker. You should grab at least a atmos hardsuit or atmos fire suit and atmos fire helmet, a atmospheric gas mask and oxygen tank, a gas analyzer, an RCD, and a holofan projector. Consider grabbing inflatable barricades, inflatable doors, steel, and metal rods to be ready to fix spacing.
- Find the distro pipe and inspect its pressure and temperature using your gas analyzer. If the pressure is zero and shows no sign of rising, set up distro.
- (optional) Set filters to recover gases from the waste pipe. Because gas miners are available on most stations, this step is not very important. And, unless scrubbers are set to siphoning, there will only be waste gases in the waste pipe.
- Deliver portable scrubbers to locations that expect miasma build up. This is usually the cloning room or morgue in the medical bay.
- Monitor the station's radio or patrol the station yourself for spacing or other atmospheric issues. Fix issues if they arise.
- Make sure that suspicious people are not sabotaging your sub-department.
