Added sections "War Ops" and "In Space, No-One Can Hear You Scream", moved "Scripting and stuff" and gave "Telecomms" actual detail instead of what seemed to be filler. Added more detail to one of the tips. Page is still bare but this should help.

==Telecomms==
==Telecomms==
Computers. Scripting. Very important, very complicated machines. Redsuits outside the window. Wait, what?
Keeping the machines up is the most important part of your job, so if it all breaks in [[Traitor|some]] [[Blood_Cult|freak]] [[Nuclear_Operative|accident]] it is your job to repair it.
 
== Scripting and stuff ==
You can find most of what you need to learn through the guide [[NT_Script]]. The language can be hard and it recommended for you to read the guide before your first round as a signal technician.

Feel free to make announcement if you deem them important enough for general public, this generally includes letting everyone know that you know t-comms went down and you are working on it. Please leave it for emergency only though.

* Upload a script that states peoples jobs after their name, so that way security knows who's making claims.

==War Ops==
When the nukies declare war, IMMEDIATELY get to work on building a backup telecoms system. Nine times out of ten, the telecoms satellite will be the first target of them, so building a backup network is extremely important.
==In Space, No-One Can Hear You Scream==
As a [[Traitor]], the biggest asset you have is your scripting. Do some crazy shit like changing all comms messages to redirect [[Security]] towards a nonexistent threat for a while. Or, you can just mute your target, but that's boring. You also have an intercom in your control room that lets you tune into and listen to any channel including Command or Security.
