Thus ended my glorious solo 90 minute maintenance-man shift.  It was lonely, but I learned a lot.  Namely, don't walk into fire.  Fire bad.

Don't be anywhere near fire without internals and a firesuit. Firesuits will protect you from residual fire damage as long as you aren't standing IN the fire. And fire extinguishers will make the area you spray livable for like a second, so you can use them and a fire suit to sprint through a towering inferno. Also, you need the internals otherwise you're breathing superheated CO2 and plasma, and that is bad.

You should've also learned that fire is worthless against space vines. Use welders or scythes.

You need to have the id in your hand and click on the comms console with it to use it.

Yeah, tried that.  Also tried ID in PDA in hand, and ID in ID slot, and ID in PDA in ID slot.  Nothing worked for it.    I can only assume it got beaten up by whatever it was that blew up.

I had the same problem recently but luckily Nien was able to give me the solution over adminhelp. This should work:
ID in one hand, other hand empty
Click on the comms console  with the empty hand
Switch your active hand to the one with the ID
Select the log in option

Also, if no heads are on, you can use the captain's spare ID from his office to call the shuttle.

Use welders or scythes.

or a goat!

All of the above, although scythes are OP against vines.

Scythes > Goats

Scythes > Goats

I don't know. You get a good grip on a goat, and you can just pull them through weeds like your pants are on fire. They eat every square of weeds they pass over. If you could set a scythe on autosweep, that'd be boss, though.

You can clear a whole hallway with a scythe, albeit swipe by swipe. The goat is susceptible to kicking you, getting knocked out of your grip by assholes on harm intent, and also does not make you look like the Space Grim Reaper.

Plus scythes can clear tables and counters. And can get 3-5 tiles at once.

It makes you look like a Space Goatherd.

A goat doesn't require you to click on a one pixel wide vine.

Then it sounds like the optimal solution is to dual wield a goat and a scythe.

[Aseaheru]

Or better yet, release a pack of goats and follow with the scythe. Goats WILL go after vines on there own.

I knew I could milk this for an OOCQ for the OOCQT.
