Removes "body retrieving" section since thats the job of paramedics, and makes mention of engineering goggles and engineering hardsuits in the equipment page.

Just don't get shocked and you won't die, you goober. | |quote = Yeah, I wired the engine right into the power net. What are you gonna do? Call Space OSHA?

Effectively, you are an assistant on steroids, and need not fear any electrical things with your gloves. You can, however, affect the station, for good or for ill, much more profoundly than a mere [[assistant]] can. For example, badass engineers can break into the [[Teleporter|teleporter room]] quickly to kill a malevolent [[AI]]. | Effectively, you are an assistant on steroids, and need not fear any electrical things with your gloves.

*[[File:Circuitboard.png]] '''Airlock electronics:''' You need this to construct an airlock. Having one on hand can save you a long trip back if you run across a broken door. Some by the metal and supplies, and one by the SMES modules. | *[[File:Circuitboard.png]] '''Airlock electronics:''' You need this to construct an airlock.

*[[File:Hardsuit Eng.png]] '''Engineering hardsuits:''' Vital for setting up engines in space, or just navigating dangerous environments. These hardsuits provide robust fire and radiation protection meaning they can be used in fairly dangerous environments. Additionally, they start with a jetpack attached to them, which makes for easy navigation of low gravity environments. | |||
*[[File:EngiScanners.png]]'''Engineering scanner goggles:''' These goggles have many uses, ranging from meson mode, radiation mode, and t-ray mode. | |||
Firesuits can no longer be carried in bags, and it's unsafe to firefight without them, so just run to the nearest firefighter closet in the advent of a fire to gear up -- There is one close to nearly everything everywhere in the station, learn their locations. | Firesuits can no longer be carried in bags, and it's unsafe to firefight without them, so just run to the nearest firefighter closet in the advent of a fire to gear up -- There is one close to nearly everything everywhere in the station, learn their locations. | ||

The | The main engine or the solars provide more than enough energy to fully power a state-of-the-art space station -- unless something goes wrong, which it almost always will. Whether it's due to shoddy wiring, a powersink, a bomb, an assistant cutting cables, a loose singularity or pure engineer laziness, power outages are a common problem that is your, YES, YOUR, job to fix. See that Power Monitoring computer? If people complain of power outages, it should always be the first port of call -- assuming the rampaging maw of Lord Singuloth hasn't already devoured it. | ||

I don't need to point out that you should never put others at risk in doing so! | If someone cries that he can't get out of somewhere and no one can get him out, then it's your job to do so.

*To get maximum camera coverage, you only have to place one camera every fifteen tiles. If there's a wall between them, use an analyzer on the assembly after welding it to the wall to create an x-ray camera. Otherwise, count seven tiles from where the previous camera disappears from view and build a camera there. | *To get maximum camera coverage, you only have to place one camera every fifteen tiles.
