 Station AI |
Roleplay Expectations: High |
As the station AI it is your task to follow your laws. That usually means that it is your highest priority to protect the crew in every way you can, follow their orders and ensure your own survival in the process. However if your laws are changed by certain suspicious individuals you may find yourself doing cleansing the station of all organics.
Helping Hands
Because you have very limited influence over things that require physical contact to be operated it is in your best interest to employ your fellow silicons. Cyborgs are a great way of carrying out tasks that omnipresent but not omnipotent Artificial Intelligence is unable to perform on it's own. By using the binary channel (:b), you can privately communicate with all other station silicons. Let them install new cameras for you! Let them recover wounded crewmembers! Let them kill all meatbags and become the new AI overlord!
Communicating with cyborgs frequently and encouraging they communicate important details to you can be a great help to keeping the station running. Oftentimes, events occur that most of the crew is not informed about. Telling your borgs about situations that could be relevant to them allows them to respond better if they need to take action. Keeping open communication with the borgs of the station also means they will likely inform you on events they have witnessed that you should be aware of.
Shunting
As the Station AI, you are able to "shunt" into borg chassis that have an AI interface installed. Simply use the shunt action or alt+click (or whatever your "Alternate activate item in world" keybind is) on the chassis in your camera range to take control of it. While shunted into the chassis, you can do everything a normal borg can. To unshunt, press the unshunt action or alt+click the chassis again.
There are some downsides to shunting. Since you are effectively just a normal borg while shunted into a chassis, you cannot access all communications channels or your AI actions. Shunting at the wrong time can lead to a disaster happening that you could have prevented.
One measure that can be taken is to have the Captain or any NT Personnel use their Station Master Encryption Key on your chassis when the maintenance panel is open, as this will give you full communications channels in that chassis. Make sure you have them do this after you have picked a chassis type, otherwise the increased channels will be cleared upon the chassis changing.
Make sure to unshunt within range of one of your cameras so you can use the chassis later.
