'''When should I re-configure the SMESs next?''' | |||
<div class="mw-collapsible-content"> | <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> | ||
'''Answer:''' If the singlo is running, and the SMESs are full or backups are charging, feel free to turn them up to maximum (200 kW) output. If the SMESs are not full and there are no backups, it's best to distribute the load evenly between the SMESs so that they can all charge at the same rate. If the singlo is not and will not be running soon, turn output to minimal levels to conserve power. It's also okay to reduce output when a power sink is active aboard the station. | '''Answer:''' If the singlo is running, and the SMESs are full or backups are charging, feel free to turn them up to maximum (200 kW) output.

'''Why is the singlo eating the station?''' | |||

'''Answer:''' Either someone (not naming any names here) didn't turn on the containment field like they were supposed to; or someone (still not naming names) let the power ran dry in the station's SMESs and the Emitters turned off and the Field Generators died; or someone (fine, it's your fault) had the PA running above 0 for too long. <br /> | '''Answer:''' Either someone (not naming any names here) didn't turn on the containment field like they were supposed to; or someone (still not naming names) let the power ran dry in the station's SMESs and the Emitters turned off and the Field Generators died; or someone (fine, it's your fault) had the PA running above 0 for too long. <br /> | ||

'''Answer:''' The station used up all the power because either the singularity engine wasn't set up fast enough or the Radiation Collectors aren't collecting radiation or wiring.<br /> | '''Answer:''' The station used up all the power because either the singularity engine wasn't set up fast enough or the Radiation Collectors aren't collecting radiation or wiring.<br /> | ||

'''Help! I'm stuck in front of the PA! Why can't I get away from it?''' | |||
<div class="mw-collapsible-content"> | <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> | ||
'''Answer:''' The singularity has a gravitational pull, which grows with each level of strength. If you stand too close, the singlo will pull you towards it, which coincidentally (and fittingly) also happens to be directly in front of the PA.<br /> | '''Answer:''' The singularity has a gravitational pull, which grows with each level of strength.

'''Why are there no lights in Engineering?''' | |||
<div class="mw-collapsible-content"> | <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> | ||
'''Answer:''' For rookie Engineers, the most common reason is that the APC doesn't have enough power to turn them on because you took too long setting up the singularity engine and you're being rightfully punished. For experienced Engineers, the most common reason is that an electrical storm busted all the lights and you're being unfairly punished by the spess gods.<br /> | '''Answer:''' For rookie Engineers, the most common reason is that the APC doesn't have enough power to turn them on because you took too long setting up the singularity engine and you're being rightfully punished.
