Day 12: Today will be about air acquisition. You detach your gas pump from your airlock after you've used it. You continue into the the other ship and see something sticking out of the debris pile. Its an air tank! It looks like it can hold up to 200 oxygen. Its a bit battered, and it looks like it's been modified to attach directly to a spacesuit. You don't have to wonder long why that is... You begin pumping 02 out of the corridors, getting a total of 4 02 from them at the cost of 10 power. While you're at it you replace the pistol into the arms locker, the other two lockers still unopened. Lastly you transfer over a melon for tomorrow and eat one now. There are still a few weeks of food in those fridges, and you consider moving them to your ship, but there would be a power cost related to keeping those fridges cold.
You think a bit about a few of your issues. You look up a welder schematic, finding it would require about 20 metal to build and 10 on use with a 20 power requirement. Though you suppose you could skimp on any of those if you didn't care so much about structural integrity. You also contemplate how to get that rocket fuel out of the engine room. Not only is it a very real and present danger, but also that shit is valuable. If you could salvage that barrel that spilled, you would increase your fuel count by 1/3, and when you're talking about rocket fuel, that's a lot of money. You decide the best way to deal with it would be a modified pump, a liquid pump with a hose attached. That would let you suck up the vast majority of it.
You spend the rest of the day scrapping the bedroom. After moving the bodies and one of the bed into the rec room, you cut apart the sleeping quarters with your mining laser. It takes 40 power, and you get 120 useable metal from the deconstruction of the room. You also discover a room module! These nifty devices are used to design rooms for quick construction. You could use this to build a room without having to do all the work yourself. They're typically used to make additions onto spaceships or construct small ships in mass quantities. It's a clue to the ship's origin. Maybe its part of a fleet, though its lack of weapons makes you doubt that. Its more likely a vessel used in local operations of some sort. normally a vessel like this would be limited to intrastellar travel, but those engines are for long distance travel, and are huge compared to the rest of the ship. Not sure what to make of it, but you can now build a custom room if you so wished.
