Since I've already posted a mostly accurate working 'ship sheet', would you guys like to speed up the exploring your new home so you can work on the problem solving and get on with adventures... hrrm... ADVENTURES.IN.SPAAACCCEEEEEE!

I can post a fairly descriptive write up before I go to work tonight (giving you all day to yay or nay the idea) that should cover all the details of your explorations.  I'm not sure if I'll be able to make this ship sheet work quite the way I want it too, but its not super-bad for all that.  I've already done the conversion work (went smoother than I thought, actually!), and have updated the ship sheet including a bunch of notes to cover all the details of a standard exploration, though I've got to lay out the 'floorplan' for you verbally on account of my art, so I can update the sheet as soon as you all are ready for it.

Quote from: Spike;1001198Yes, if you have comms you have comms. I'm not planning any stupid-GM tricks where you can't use your smartphone because your helmet got in the way. I'm assuming most of your kit came from your previous life and was meant to work together anyway. Modular and all that.

Ah, I was just being strict about the reading of what the Comms unit does from the book, and assuming the ship's comms net is not active with the emergency power, but maybe it still is... I'm also fine with a slight redefinition of the comms gear, I'm also fine with adding a short range comm to my gear (I had left some cash for purchasing equipment once we sort of new our missing).

If it's ok, I'll go back to the briefing Ramirez was given before going night night and purchase additional appropriate equipment, I check with you on that.

Speeding up the exploration is fine with me, if there's nothing going to bite us it obviously doesn't make sense to walk it through slowly, and even if there is, you can jump us to the point of where we might find a clue of upcoming biteage...

And so far, I'm enjoying this.

I'll plan on posting an updated sheet and giving you guys a verbal briefing IC when I get up, unless someone screams out that they'd prefer to do it slow.  

Let me know you plans regarding the NPC so I can work that in.

Any luck registering our salvage claim?

With whom? You've got no comms outside the ship currently, nor any expectation of them.

With the ship itself.  One year of working memory is a bit of a problem but Tech Cooper is going to calculate our jump here shortly and we will rejoin the normal universe.

When that happens our paper work will be inorder and we can sell the ship or not, and split the profits 4 ways.  

Should be an easy admin roll.

Well it would be highly unusual for a ship's crew (as you are already listed) to put in a salvage claim on their own ship, but don't let ME stop you!  

One Salvage claim filled out and stuck in the active buffer.

Good.  One less thing.

yes, so what ARE you 'Engineer Techs' doing to save us?  Inquiring GMs want to know.

Also, what are you doing with the NPC you found. You have power now, systems are back online, excepting unusual cases like the compter datastack.  You've got... ahem... "food", and you've got a bin full of repair parts and assorted scrap that can be turned into repair parts in the workshop... which some idiot put on the wrong deck.   when it should be closer to Cargo, where you store all that heavy stuff...

Could we get some kind of summary of the characters? Following back to see who has what skill sets and stuff will soon get challenging...

Hmm... I sort of intended to have you guys work that sort of thing out between yourselves... I guess I can work up an executive summary in the morning and post it (I try and monitor and post from a tablet at work at night... limits what I can do, but better than nothing. The perils of having the opposite schedule of everyone else!).  That reminds me that I've still got to scan clean sheets in for you guys... alas... a GMs work is never done...

If I can get a offical charcter sheet I can let you know what I'm good at.  Astrogation and admin mostly.

We're going really fast right?  Does the light change from red to blue when we turn around and face forward?  Serious question.  Should it?

You must WANT your character to die horribly! .   Based on my long experience as a near C test pilot you have two options... Weird and hallucinatory light effects OR chalk it up to Relativity and ignore it?

Well I think I have at least as much experience at c fractional speeds as you do.  I am willing to ignore that stuff inside if you are.  I expect redshift will be noticeable if we look out the window?
