((Apologies for the absence. The game completely slipped my mind, I'm sad to say. Might want to replace me, perhaps. I'd say I've lost the plot, but I don't think I actually followed it terribly well to begin with.))

"Er, no. That'll be all, I think. See you in a bit, Melissa. I'll keep your advice in mind."

Get back to the ship and put some (2-4, depending on if those points into Starting Inventor are a typo or something that simply happened) of those lovely skill points into sweet, sweet Space Knowledge - facts that we can use to get a better sense of general things.

There literally isn't a plot actually, its a sandboxy game so any story is made by your choices not me, and to be fair you haven't actually missed much. :v If you want out I can replace you though.

As for the skill points: You got the existing points in Inventor from designing the bar, and you can only put points into skills you've already started to learn (the OP has a spoiler that fully explains skill points).

[Harry Baldman]

((I mean, I just doubt that I can properly follow it anymore if existing patterns hold. So do feel free to replace me if anyone else wants a go.))

[_DivideByZero_]

I ain't registered with no government, so they shouldn't be able to find my hacking tool.
Turn it of, then run away!

Afterward, get on a ship computer and finish up the unfinished logistics code.

Afterward, look into the effective range of the ship's drive exhaust as a weapon compared to normal weapons.

You aren't registered, but the crew's ship is. As for hacking tools, you have none aside from the ship's computers and your fingers :v

[adwarf]

((My watch?))

Less of a hacking tool and more of a translation device to help you actually converse with everyone. It can certainly be modified and adapted to assist in hacking things, but at the moment its just used to help you talk to others.

((Well I wouldn't have done it if I had to use a ship computer, would I? I said I'd find a nice, quiet corner. But whatever.))

[adwarf]

((Well I wouldn't have done it if I had to use a ship computer, would I?))

I do the best I can with what you write down for me to read. I'm sorry if the resulting action isn't what you want, but I can't read minds, just the posts ... You wanted to hack in a quiet corner? Well since you didn't specify using what, and only asked for a quiet corner then that qualifies one of the bridge's computers as its actually accessible to you and aside from the crew no one else can board the ship.

Tobias decided to ignore all the aliens since none of them accosted him, but was on the verge of taking the droid down in close-range to neutralize his gun advantage before the proprietor deactivated him. "You should have someone fix that before it kills someone," he said with a hint of annoyance in his voice. "Anyway, I'm looking for ammunition for a Radlin Striker sidearm. Got any?"

Ask about ammo prices for the handgun. Also all four points into Scavenger.

Amelia goes in search for added equipment to finish up the exoskeleton project and ensures via radio that everyone is aware of what she's doing.

((Sorry for brevity; exam days are happenin'!))

[GiglameshDespair]

Cut up one of the spaceship hull plates and start producing armour to attach on to the exoskeleton, and consider the ways I could power the exoskeleton.

[adwarf]

((I vote we sell all the hull plates))

"Well, I'd like to fit a red dot sight to my shotgun, mostly for my own amusement... But really I'd like to see what Class II weapons you have. Expecting my licence to come through tomorrow so would like to reserve something, if you have anything good... TK, anything take your fancy?"

Continue perusing goods.

"Class II weapons, tsk. I have some, but not many though probably more than anyone else on the station considering the Planetary Governor's trade laws don't exactly cover me since he's afraid my people will stop their flow of trade to the world if he did. All the pieces I have are UM surplus military gear, just don't ask me what happened to the last person that owned it."

You take your time scouring through the marketplace in search of anything that could be of use for the exoskeleton project while Trent heads back to the ship to start work on chopping up one of the hull plates for exosuit plating before you all sell them off to Macnameer. It doesn't take you long to find a fairly wide selection of materials, and equipment that could come in handy for the exosuit though you're not sure what, if any of it, is needed.

Spoiler: Goods (click to show/hide)

Tools, and Equipment
Basic Toolkit [A set of wrenches, screwdrivers, a hammer, and some pliers that makes for a somewhat decent time working on simpler projects.] [300 Credits]
Advanced Toolkit [Several sets of wrenches, all sizes of screwdrivers, claw hammers, ball-peen hammers, pliers, metal shears, etc. If it doesn't require power, you got it.] [800 Credits]
Portable Plasma Torch [A rather well-made portable plasma torch that could come in handy for welding, cutting, and killing if you're so inclined.] [500 Credits, 50 Credits per Fuel Tank]
Machining Workbench [Made for sale to small businesses, or hobbyists this workbench has all the basics for machining parts though it's not going to be effective or quick as more advanced gear.] [1000 Credits]

Metals, Parts, and Components
Scrap Metal [Piles of loose bits of metals ranging from tin to aluminum to iron. Fairly low quality, but it has its uses.] [10 Credits per Unit]
Basic Metals [Sheets and strips of the more widely available metals such as iron or copper in a fairly good quality.] [25 Credits per Unit]
Simple Electrical Components [Cables, wires, very cheap capacitors, etc. These are useful if you want to create methods to move electricity, but that's about it] [20 Credits per Unit]
Advanced Electrical Components [High grade electrical cabling along side capacitors, converters, switches, and whatever else you need to help set up an electrical system that can actually cut itself off instead of burning your newly wired house down.] [40 Credit per Unit]
DuraVast Battery [A very common household battery used to power everything from stand alone dryers and washers to scooters.] [125 Credits a piece.]

Afterward, get on a ship computer and finish up the unfinished logistics code.

Afterward, look into the effective range of the ship's drive exhaust as a weapon compared to normal weapons.

With your hacking attempt ultimately a failure you turn your attention to finishing the coding for Amelia's logistical upgrade, a goal which is easily achieved as you hammer out the last of the needed code within an hour which leaves only the mechanical/computational upgrade left to go before the ship begins to divert from the norm. Once you finish that up you turn to considering whether the ship's drive exhaust could be used as a weapon, but that isn't really your area of expertise so you aren't entirely certain how far it'd reach or if it'd even be all that effective in the first place.

Cut up one of the spaceship hull plates and start producing armour to attach on to the exoskeleton, and consider the ways I could power the exoskeleton.

You hastily get back to the cargo bay filled with hull plates to grab one of them for armor plating before the others manage to sell the whole lot off to Macnameer, and you arrive just in time to tell the dock workers off for attempting to take the entire stack. After a few moments of work the dock workers leave with nineteen of the hull plates loaded onto a hover cart which they proceed to bush over to a cargo lift as you set about getting some armor for your exosuit. While you work away with the welder you start to think of how you could power the exoskeleton, and after maybe twenty minutes of theories you realize that your current skills are only really capable of two methods: you could build a battery into the suit and simply recharge it when you don't need to use it, or you could manufacture a power cable and have the suit hook into the ship's power grid which would greatly reduce the suit's range.

When you're done you've divided the hull plate up into enough armor plates for three exosuits.

Everyone
A while later all of you are informed by a lackey from Macnameer that Neal has been called back to the corporation headquarters for a new position under Melinda, and standing next to him is a man wearing a rather faded Calmar military uniform with a rifle thrown over his shoulder. The lackey takes a moment to tell you all that the man's name is Rocco Coleman, ex-member of Calmar's Second Recon division and newly assigned member for the crew meant to help ensure safety considering the recent rises in pirate activity.

Ship Projects

Navigational Logistics Improvement (Modification)
Required Coding: Completed! Coding is harder to understand for anyone who isn't Dio.
Required Mechanical Adjustments: Unknown
Basic Effect: Changes to the ship's navigation systems have allowed it to more efficiently assist in course plotting, and actively handle all low-end logistical needs with expert efficiency. -2 to Flight Complications and +2 to Power Generated.

Additional Armor Plating
Required Work: Intensive Manual Labor, and Welding/Bolting Additional Plates into place.
Basic Effect: +5 Armor Rating to the Ship

Bedroom to Jail Cell Conversion
Required Work: Completed.
Basic Effect: Turns one of the bedrooms into a simplistic jail cell. The door could hold your average person, but don't depend on it holding a beast, or one of the physically stronger races.

A Gentleman's Minibar Installation
Required Work: Extensive manual labor, complete replacement of furniture and existing canteen elements, purchase of various materials including a Serving Droid. Requires 10,000 credits.
Basic Effect: A Martini please, shaken, not stirred. Improved morale, superior alcohol quality, perhaps a tendency towards drunk piloting.

Equipment Projects
Exoskeleton Frame
Required Work: Decent amount of manual labor, 8 units of basic metals required, 4 units of scrap metal, 2 units of simple electrical components.
Description: A metal framework designed to wear around a spacesuit made with attachment points for armor plates, and a built in framework of electrical cables in case of modifications requiring the usage of power. End result will require a turn to put on when in a spacesuit.

GM Note: As Harry wanted out of the game AzyWing is now in. Also forgive me for the rather lacking fluff this time, but I managed to delete half the update, and then lose the rewrite of it so I just wanted to get an update through before I lost all steam.

[SeriousConcentrate]

Buy 6 clips and the laser sight, attach sight to Striker, do firing range training plan but use only two clips: the one currently in it and the sixth one, leaving the other five for later.

[AzyWng]

Raise a hand as greeting.

"Hello, it's nice to be working with you folks. What are your names?"

I'll place two skill points in marksmanship. I'll figure out something to do with the other two.
