# '''Power is out accross 2 small rooms or in one room?''' This is most likely an APC that has been tampered with in some way. Either hacked by an AI/Saboteur, destroyed somehow or just had it's cell ripped out. Again, if the APC doesn't show up on the Power Monitoring computer,it means it's been severed from the power net and wire either inside that room or very close to the APC has been cut.

# '''Power is intermittent accross the station. Stuff turns off for a while, starts working, then goes off again?''' Your SMES aren't outputting enough power to keep the APCs charged. This happens most often when the output is just under the drain so therefore some APCs get enough power, while others don't.

* It is possible to upgrade the AI's cameras by using certain items... For example, you can give them x-ray properties if you apply a ultra micro laser to them. Pretty them useful if the AI needs eyes in maint and you actually have the research to produce them. Watch as the Ai freaks out when it realiss it now sees EVERYTHING in the dorms.
There is also a proximity sensor upgrade. Install a proximity sensor upgrade on a camera and the AI will be immediatly alerted if anyone comes in view range. There's a third upgrade too, but it's not as good and I do not remember it.

* Kill a ling, drag a weldertank onto it, and then welder/shoot the tank with a laser. This gibs the ling.

* As a changeling, the absolute best item for you to get is a wallet (From the crew quarters, in either cabin's personal closet, in the leather satchel.) It goes in your ID slot and holds up to 4 ids, all of which work for automatic access and none of which change your mouse over identity.

* As long as you can talk and you're within 1 tile of an intercom, you can type :i in front of what you say to say it over the intercom. Even when you're stunned and/or on the ground. This saved my life on more than one occasion, such as when a changeling tried to absorb me on a pod and the silence sting wore off before he killed me.
* If you get cryostung as a secguy...Remove your armor and helmet. REMOVE THEM. Or else you will die. Sec armor has somehow some heattampering properties, which means you won't heat up as much as you would normally be...And will consequently die of cold. Same goes if you are wearing an hardsuit/space protective gear/anything that could have thermal properties. If you get cryo'd, REMOVE THOSE THINGS ASAP.

* Using a lighter on a fire alarm will activate it. Not actually very game-changing... Actually hitting it with any item will, even shooting them sets them off.
