Overview:
As a Scientist aboard the station, your primary responsibility is to advance technological capabilities and support other departments through research and development. This involves studying artifacts, generating and containing anomalies, and producing advanced equipment to enhance station operations.
Responsibilities:
- Research and Development: Engage in the analysis of alien artifacts through Xenoarchaeology to generate research points. These points can be utilized to unlock new technologies and equipment beneficial to the station. Keep in mind as you pry deeper its effects may become severe and may cause damage or harm to the crew nearby.
- Anomalous Research: Generate Anomalies and contain it for a stable income of research points, find it and identify if its location is safe enough for containment as having it not secure can damage its surroundings and harm the crew of the station. The anomaly can be set to a higher severity for higher income of points but be careful to not let it go critical or the effects maybe dire.
- Equipment Fabrication: Utilize devices such as the Protolathe, Autolathe and the Circuit Printer to construct tools, weapons, and machines. These creations should aim to support various departments, including Medical, Engineering, and Security.
- Interdepartmental Support: Collaborate with other departments by providing necessary equipment and technological solutions. For instance, assisting the Medical Department with advanced surgical tools or unlocking Armaments Tech for Security so that they can fabricate advanced gear.
Guidelines:
- Safety Protocols: Always prioritize the safety of the station and its crew during testing of alien artifacts and containment of anomalies, as being neglectful can and will damage the station and its crew if one is not careful.
- Provisioning: Please be mindful of what you provide to the crew of station as it may make the Science Department liable for that one Tider that requested and is given the advanced experimental tool Jaws of Life to break into areas they're not supposed to. Always check if the item being requested is within their job roles.
- Material Acquisition: Providing the crew tools and equipment requires the base materials of Steel, Glass and Plastic. Please coordinate with the Supply/Cargo Department and/or the Salvage team to provide the Science Department a decent supply of materials, higher tiers of equipment requires rarer materials such as Solid Plasma or Diamonds.
- Communication: Keep open lines of communication with the Research Director and other department heads. This fosters collaboration and ensures that the unlocked technologies align with the station's needs.
