You either sleep on the medbay bed or in the dorms.  Or if a sofa has been built you can sleep on that, although that's usually reserved for Paola.

Got it, thanks Tnx.

And, either my "friend" is a freaking ninja or he is deceiving me. Probably not deceiving because he could be banned and he is being very helpful (it's a Chun).
He killed one of the mush already, figured it out because of it's obvious suspicious moves, and then he either was in a dorm or near it, that Chao tried to kill Kuan Ti.

I think Chao couldn't and transfered to Terrence or something like that (people said), now to get free of the mush all we have to do is to kill Terrance. And everyone is out of AP and I have no idea how to combat.

It honestly feels like a lot of their problems came from the fact that their entire team was composed of cats, and the people who were supposed to be herding them were also cats.

Also, any tips on combat? I had a private channel with someone and they suddenly quit AND it shows another death in the HUD, so I think I lost my friend and councellor/tutor, so I'm doomed.

Only fight with a knife or blaster. Don't bother fighting unarmed solo, unless you're assisting someone. Exception are people with the Solid skill. Solid fighters do as much damage as someone with a knife.
Never fight in the same room as Ian. If you're targeting Ian, try to get someone with shooter skill to offset the AP penalty.
Grab the armor if possible.
Consider bringing along a ration/coffee if you're walking into a fight for the AP boost.

Both Kuan Ti and Terrence are dead. Half the ship is dead. But really, is that all? No research/project/comms thingy or anything that helps speed things up?

Haha, nope. You're screwed. Did you get the mage books from the Xyloph DB yet? It might have a Technician book.

My latest game. I was Mush Eleesha and I got away with stabbing crewmates in broad daylight. Sigh...

They finished pilgred on day 4 and I stole the hacker kit and flew us to Sol with mush aboard.

Disagree. Unless you have shooter, unarmed is consistently more reliable than the blaster, with a lower chance of hurting yourself. Knife is the best option (After the Lazaro) unless you have shooter - with shooter, blaster is obviously better, yeah. If you have Solid, unarmed is actually BETTER than the knife, so stick to unarmed.

Idk, I've never really seen anyone get killed with unarmed (unless it's after a series of bashing), but I have seen plenty killed with a blaster. Armor and hard boiled (mush skill) makes unarmed combat much more useless too. If your target is a mush that anticipated unarmed combat, it's not going to be very useful at all. One of my fights had about 16 total punches on me, as mush with armor and hard boiled, and I lost only 3 HP.

Blaster do have 3 charges and only one of those will hit. But it still seems like a better use of AP than 3 punches. And sometimes you injure yourself too but if you're in a situation where you have to fight, injuring yourself is not the worst outcome. Unless it's a surprise backstab on someone who may be a mush but isn't actually a mush. Those are times where you don't want to accidentally cut off your tongue or break a leg.

Shooters get free shots and headshots though. I know headshots can bring someone down from 16 health to 0. Ian's weakness is a guy with Shooter skill and a blaster ;)

I'm actually be more inclined to knife, even with Solid. I got about 3 critical kills out of 9 with the knife, and roughly 0 out of 3 kills unarmed, so I'd say criticals matter a lot too. I've never self injured once with the knife despite what the forums and wiki says. And most importantly, once you're holding the knife, people can't use it against you.

 The problem is there's 16 crew and one knife. Unarmed combat is the reality for most of the crew - if a mush is revealed, it should be taken down ASAP with your advantage in numbers and whatever means you have available (if it's a hard boiled mush with armour, then you probably lost already, so "wasting" ap on unarmed attacks is academic). If your lynch mob has the co-ordination to pass the knife around without the accused grabbing it, then all the better.

Question: Is it guaranteed that dismantling a shower drops a thick tube? If yes, does it drop into the room or into the inventory of the character?

Our shower got dismantled in Bravo Dorm and there is no tube in the room, no one picked it up in the log and it's not hidden there either (I searched).

Oops, my mistake. It goes to your inventory and only drops if you have no space. Ask the person who dismantled it.

Grahh, my current ship annoys me so much! Everyone is only online for like 5 minutes and this makes it impossible to coordinate anything. And they keep not reporting seriously important things, like inventory changes. On the other hand we have 6(!) cameras and Plasma Shield online...

My ship is currently doing amazing. We killed one mush and our other Mush is either too much of a new player to know how to play, or is too scared to do anything because of the Pheromodem we setup.

Haha, plasma shield in itself is an accomplishment similar to finishing PILGRED. It's about similar difficulty, with the same skillset.

Why pheromodem if you've killed the mush early? They can chat through private messages. Be careful though. Plenty of ships seem to have a single inactive mush, but only after 1 mush messes up that you realize that half the crew have been using anonymush.
