ENGINES

The Supermatter engine is the main engine and power source in most station maps. It emits tons of radiation, making everyone who could theoretically see it hallucinate, releases hot oxygen and plasma, heating the air around. This engine can potentially explode, or even create a singularity/tesla if you screw up! When the shift begins it is dormant but if hit by an object, projectile or person it will activate and start producing huge amounts of radiation, which can be converted to power with the radiation collectors.

Do NOT run into the Supermatter shard to commit suicide! You will be banned.

Engine setup

This is the engine setup used on most maps. The layout and amount of work required may change depending on the map.

Set up

This is the safest, easiest setup and it will be the most common one used. Don't experiment with the engine until you are experienced. This setup should last for the entire round.

Step 1: Protection

The engine will begin to cause both radiation damage and hallucinations once turned on. This will help you prepare for all of this.
1. Put on some optical meson scanners or engineering scanner goggles in radiation mode
2. Put on a radiation suit or engineering hardsuit

Step 2: Preparation

Setting up the supermatter engine is a case of going in a big circle. Refer to the image on the right for steps 2, 3 and 4.
1. At points 1 and 2 set these pumps both to on and max output pressure (4500kpa)
2. At point 3 set the air alarm scrubber controls to "Mode: Siphoning" and "Range: Expanded"
3. At point 3 set the air alarm vent controls to "External Target Pressure: 5066.3" (max)
4. At point 4 turn the pump off
5. At point 5 turn the filter on, set it to max output pressure (4500kpa) and set it to filter nothing
6. At points 6 and 7 turn the pumps on and set them to max output pressure (4500kpa)
7. At point 8 turn the filter on, set it to max output pressure (4500kpa) and set it to filter nitrogen
8. At points 9, 10 and 11 turn the filters on, set them to max output pressure (4500kpa) and set them to filter nothing
9. At point 12 turn the pump on and set it to max output pressure (4500kpa)
10. At point 14 wrench the two N2 canisters
11. At point 14 turn both of the pumps on and set them to max output pressure (4500kpa)

Step 3: Plasma

The final preparation is setting up the radiation collectors.
1. Collect 6 plasma tanks
2. (Optional) Fill each plasma tank to full using a plasma canister
3. At points 14 and 15 fill each radiation collector with a plasma tank. Click them with an empty hand to turn them on, and don't forget to lock their controls with your ID

Step 4: Start the Engine!

All the preparations to ensure the supermatter shard doesn't blow are now complete. Congratulations!
1. At point 16 click the button to close the radiation shutters
2. At point 17 turn on all three emitters. Your engine is now fully setup
3. Remember to lock the emitters' controls with your ID
