=Miscellaneous= ===[[File:ModularModern.png|64px]] Modular Hardware[[File:Laptop.gif|64px]][[File:Tablet.gif]]=== The latest and greatest in Nanotrasen technology, these modular consoles get their programs from the cloud, and can hold as many as they have memory for, as well as run multiple simultaneously depending on their CPU power. Laptop and tablet frames can be built on an autolathe, while a console can be built directly from metal. Components are usually printed at [[Research_and_Development_Lab|the lab]], or found in the elusive laptop vendor. Every modular machine requires at least: *one power source *one hard drive *one processing unit *access to a network to download programs OR disks loaded with said programs A full guide to modular computers can be found [[Modular Computers|HERE]]. ===[[File:Requests_Console.gif|64px]]Requests Console=== Can be found in every room where someone is supposed to work. The Requests Consoles can be used to request low/high urgency assistance, request supplies with low/high priority, relay anonymous information or view sent and received messages. All of these produce a message to the selected Request Console and can be swiped with an ID to confirm the identity of the sender. Can be [[Hacking#Requests_Console|hacked]] to enable the 'EXTREME' priority for your requests. The [[Bridge]] and Heads' Offices have special Requests Consoles which can send station-wide announcements if swiped with an authorized ID. ===[[File:Newscaster.gif|64px]]Newscaster=== Newscasters are the most widespread type of the computers, thanks to [[NanoTrasen]] wanting to keep you up to date on the latest news. You can view newsfeeds other crewmembers have made, or make your own! You can attach photos to the news. Every Newscaster can print out 15 newspapers for people who enjoy reading stuff from the paper. Security Newscasters can be found in [[Brig]] and can make "Wanted" Issues, censor out harmful newsfeed stories, or lock down a whole channel with a D-Notice. ===[[File:Library_Computer.gif|64px]] Library Computer=== A computer located over the librarian's desk, one in the library amongst shelves and the prison wing. The one located over the librarian's desk is different from others, since it's the only one which can [[Librarian#How_To_Add_A_Book_To_The_Database|add a new book into the database]] and print out books. The other computers are able to access the database and only search for the names of the books. ===[[File:Holodeck_control.gif|64px]]Holodeck Control Console=== Controls the holodeck. Can be emagged to disable safety protocols. ===[[File:Arcade_Machines.gif|64px]] Arcade Machines=== :The easiest way to waste time, '''Arcade Machines''' can be found all over the station including [[Arrivals]], the [[bar]] and [[Escape_Shuttle_Hallway|escape]]. There are two different games: an RPG, which may go by several different names, or the Orion Trail, which is definitely not a cute ripoff of an ancient educational video game. ====Defeat Lord ERPer==== While all of these games may have different names, they all play the same way: namely, like an RPG. Basically, you and your CPU-controlled opponent take turns attacking. You can also heal (at the cost of MP) or recharge MP (at the cost of a turn). :Defeating your opponent nets you a prize of some sort. :You lose if your HP or MP is zero or less. Your attacks do 2-8 damage, healing restores 6-14 health for 1-4 MP, and charging regains 4-11 points. But none of that really matters. Although you can't see the enemy stats it's not too difficult to just whittle it down. It will attack doing 3-9 damage for some time. Eventually when its health is low enough it will start healing instead of attacking (4 points at a time), and shortly after when it runs out of MP it will steal yours. It won't ever steal more than 5 per turn, but you'll lose instantly if that puts you below 0. :Charging so you have at least 6 MP, healing so you have at least 10 HP and attacking otherwise is bound to work eventually, but there are faster methods. :Emagging this machine turns it into Outbomb Cuban Pete, which is harder and has higher stakes! ====The Orion Trail==== You start out with four people, 80 food, 60 fuel, and one each of engine parts, hull panels and electronics. Your goal is to make it to Orion. Your goal in reality is to crunch a bunch of numbers and hope the RNG favors you. :The more people you have and the more time you spend, the more food you use up. Every person consumes 2 food per day, and a normal leg of your journey takes 1 day. :The more detours you take, the more fuel you use up. A normal leg of your journey takes 5 fuel. :Raiders will sometimes steal a random amount of food and fuel, and collisions may vent it out into space. Certain events will use up engine parts or kill crew members, or offer you a risky option or a safe option that uses more food/fuel. :You will probably not make it to Orion if all of you live! There is not enough food unless you get really lucky with the black hole. Hope for death. ====Mediborg's Amputation Adventure==== Rare. Put your hand in the machine if you aren't a coward. ====List of Prizes==== :The prize selected is random, unless the machine is [[Syndicate Items#Cryptographic Sequencer|emag]]ged. They're all annoying, useless or dangerously similar to illegal items. Have fun! :* Snap-pop box :* Blink toy :* Tacticool Turtleneck :* Toy sword :* Cap gun & ammo :* Foam-dart crossbow :* Replica red spacesuit and helmet :* Box of crayons :* 'Singularity' spinning toy :* Toy AI :* Nuclear Fission Device toy (oh god) :* Windup tool box (oh GOD) :* One of eleven toy mech figurines. :* Chasm and space looking floor tiles. :* Grenades full of glitter that coincidentally looks just like plasma or N2O. :* Fake cult items. Security hates them! :* Roller shoes and light-up shoes. Radical. :* Tactical(tm) snack(tm) rigs that come prestocked with a selection of random gamer fuel. :* Other fake traitor items, like an emag, a red button or a hot potato. =====Emagged prizes===== Battle arcade: :You get both of these, GUARANTEED! The arcade machine resets after, so you'll have to emag it ''again'' and win ''again'' to get more. It's probably faster to just go make a bomb yourself. :* Syndicate bomb :* Collectable Cuban Pete hat Orion Trail: :* Orion settler ship replica. It explodes in a big fireball, just like the ship it's based on. Aw.
