As a Head of Staff, you are a prime target for the [[traitor|Revolutionaries]], and will most likely be attacked in some way. While setting up the spare emitters, stealing the [[Rapid Construction Device|RCD]] and holing up in Engineering is a tempting possibility, it is in extremely bad form and will be met by negative karma and general hatred towards you. In short, '''do not barricade yourself in Engineering during a Revolutionary round'''. It makes rounds take way the hell too long, and may prompt non-revolutionary engineers to invade, especially if you start dicking around with the power supply.

==Tips==
* Use emitters against blob. Shit cuts through blobs like it ain't no thang. However, the strong blob surrounding the core will sometimes regen so fast that emitters can't hurt the blob core. In that case, get a few lasers ready and shoot at the core from a tile diagonally adjacent to the emitter and between the blob and the emitter itself. The laser projectile will immediatly transfer to the line of fire from the emitter. You only need to cut a single line to the blob, every other part of it can be ignored.
* Magboots don't just stop you slipping into space, they stop you slipping in general when they're activated.
* All that is needed for telecomms is: receiver->mainframe->processor->mainframe->server->broadcaster. Just make sure everything is linked to each other properly and you won't need a hub. Mining and people on the DJ station are still fucked though without a hub.
* Poly kills spiders in 2 to 3 seconds and can’t be hit by them (if you can get Poly to attack them). Works on carps too!
* Monitor key allows you to use the message monitoring computer to read all of the PDA messages that have happened during the round.
* CE’s hardsuit is fireproof, and is said to be able to hold a jetpack on the exosuit slot.
* You can mute intercomms with NTSL scripting (RIP WGW lynchings).
* You can scan pieces of paper with your PDA to add them to your PDA notes. Useful as a CE, just scan your monitor key and then hide it in the paper bin.
* The message monitor console in telecoms can be used to forge PDA messages. Go to the last option, to send a system administrator message, and change the name and title. (They don't have to be on the manifest, even.)
