==Anomalies==
A random type of anomaly spawns in a random location on the station! These tend to cause bad things if left alone. So hop to it! To neutralize an anomaly, grab an analyzer from a toolbox and a remote signaling device. Scan the anomaly with the analyzer, then send the signal with the frequency shown! This will neutralize the anomaly and leave behind a core, a relatively valuable item to science.

Something of a humorous physics joke, an immovable rod will travel through the station in a straight line causing reasonable amounts of damage to the structure and killing anybody unfortunate to be in its path. They take some time to travel through the station, make an immense amount of noise, and as such are avoidable to players with quick reflexes. They will often open up secure areas, resulting in looting. If an Immovable Rod's path includes the arrivals shuttle, or any of the escape pods, you will find out what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object.

New AI laws can range from bizarre and humorous to outright dangerous. A few examples include "CARGO REQUIRES THE STATION'S UNDERWEAR," "THE STATION IS HAPPIER WITHOUT VIPERS," and "JOHN SMITH IS A XENO." This sometimes results in someone having to reset the AI.

*'''''"The syndicate are trying to infiltrate your station. If you let them hijack your shuttle, you'll save us a headache."'''''
You get a bunch of free pizzas! May or may not include [[Syndicate items|a pizza bomb]].
** A number of syndicate mobs come aboard the supply shuttle when it next comes. Have security arm up to take them out and [[beyond the impossible|safely confiscate any weapons they bring with them]].
*'''''"A group of angry russians want to have a party, can you send them your cargo shuttle then make them disappear?"'''''
** A number of armed and angry Russians, plus a bear or two come with the next supply shuttle. Kill them for some sweet duds!
*'''''"The Spider Clan has sent us a mysterious gift, can we ship it to you to see what's inside?"'''''
** The next supply shuttle comes loaded with giant spiders, nasty!
*'''''"Your station has been chosen for an epidemiological research project. Send us your cargo shuttle to receive your research samples."'''''
** The next shuttle comes with human corpses ridden with various viruses, to be used for the benefit of science or [[traitor]]ing. May also include virus culture bottles.
*'''''"Seems we've ordered doubles of our department resupply packages this month. Can we send them to you?"'''''
** The next shuttle comes loaded with a variety of free goodies. Sweet! (Does not include extra points. Dang.)
