Editing Supply crates (section)

===Supply Drop Pods===
Once Mining Technology has been researched, you are able to print an Express Supply Console computer board from the cargo [[Guide_to_Research_and_Development#Techfab|techfab]]. Building an Express Supply Console and then swiping it with a QM-level ID card will unlock an interface similar to the Supply Console. Ordering any crate with this console will have it delivered instantly with a drop pod. The drop pod causes a fiery explosion. The drop location will be a random spot in Cargo Bay, unless you [[Emag#Express_supply_console|emag]] it, or print a Supply Pod Beacon for 500 credits. You can use the console to change the drop location to that of the last printed beacon. Printing a new beacon will make the first beacon permanently useless. Use teamwork to have one person take the beacon to locations where crates need to be delivered, while the other person orders the crate. The drop pods themselves must be dismantled with a [[Engineering_items#Welding_Tool|welder]]. 

====Upgrading the Supply Drop Pods====
Once Bluespace Travel has been researched, the cargo [[Guide_to_Research_and_Development#Techfab|techfab]] will be able to print a Supply Drop Pod Upgrade Disk. Inserting this disk into the Express Supply Console will upgrade its drop pods by making their explosion size smaller, and making them automatically teleport out after landing. After upgrading you must unlock the console again and print a new beacon.
