The '''Security Pod Pilot's''' job is to pursue suspects that roam in space with your Security Space Pod, away from the trusty hands of your fellow [[Security Officer|Security Officers]], patrol the space nearby, scouting for hull damage or other dangers, keeping the station safe from any troublemakers, [[Traitor|traitorous engineers]], and the [[Nuclear Agent|enemies]].


== Equipment ==
The '''Security Pod Pilot's''' job is to pursue suspects that roam in space, away from the hands of your fellow [[Security Officer]]s, patrol the space nearby in their Security Spacepod, scouting for hull damage or other dangers, keeping the station safe from any troublemakers, [[Traitor|traitorous engineers]], and the [[Nuclear Agent|enemies]].
Here is a list of stuff that the security pod pilot spawns with:
=Required Knowledge=


* A space pod. You wander the skies around the station in this, your trusty space pod, keeping the crew from harm from all the nasty aliens that live out there.
Out of Character wise: '''Read the rules carefully before playing as a member of Security.'''
* A space suit. You need this in case your pod somehow explodes.
  Note: You can find suit converters for different species to the left of the pod bay.
* A security locker. Along with the standard security gear, here is also a laser module for your pod.
* Laser module. For emergencies that need some firepower from space.
* O2 canister. Fill up your jetpack/ oxygen tanks with this.
* Jetpack. Makes it even easier to navigate space if/ when your pod explodes.
* Recharger/ 2 battery cells. Use these to keep your pod charged and ready.
* Toolbox with tools. Needed for repairs and changing out parts.


==Starting Out==
In Character wise: Obviously, knowledge of how '''to fly and manage a space pod.'''
The Security Pod Pilot starts out in the Eastern side of Security. They kit up in this area and they have access to breathing apparatus as they are in space most of the time. Just above their spawn is the area where their shuttle is kept. Their pod is equipped with a taser module by default, and your security locker comes with a laser module, which you can place in by using a crowbar on the pod, clicking the pod with a bare hand, removing the taser module, and clicking the pod with the laser module in hand. Crowbar the pod to close the hatch again. '''DO NOT USE THIS UNLESS IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY.''' An example of when this would be needed would be to clear out space carp.


== Traitoring ==
'''Knowledge of [[Space Law]]'''. You're a security officer, after all.
As the security pod pilot, not many people have the speed that you possess. And even if the mechanic builds their own pod, guess who has the authority?


Your access is not very extensive, but you can possess (or steal away!) most of the weapons that security has, which may be enough to complete your objectives.
'''Robustness is mandatory'''.  


If you are caught to explain what you're doing snooping around, or being so far away from your pod, you could get away by saying that you were off-duty and was bored (generally true), or that you were looking for an escaping suspect, with no time to waste!
EVA knowledge will be needed to avoid you becoming a cold corpse.

Here is a list of stuff available in the pod pilot's office:
 
* '''Security Spacepod''' - Your trusty pod to wander the space around the station in, keeping the crew from harm from all the nasty aliens that live out there.

Starting Out

The Security Pod Pilot starts out in the Eastern side of Security. This is where they gear up in preparation for the shift. Just above their spawn is pod hangar. Feel free to change into your space suit, fill up your oxygen tank, and figure out your loadout - a visit to the security vendor to pick up extra gear is worthwhile. Once that's done, head into your pod by click dragging your sprite to the pod, similar to a mech. From here, use the 'Open pod doors' button on your Spacepod tab, and fly into space. Your aim here is to fly around the station and make sure everything is in order. That's really all there is to it, unless you actually run into something you can't handle. A lot of the time, the pod pilot is essentially a regular [[[Security Officer]]], but better equipped to handle threats that attack from or escape into space, and actively expected to do so.

Pod maintenance

As the Security Pod Pilot you are expected to maintain the pod and keep in in good shape at all times. You never know when the enemy will strike.

Changing/upgrading the battery

  1. Crowbar.png Use a crowbar to open the maintenance hatch.
  2. Right hand midnight.png Use an empty hand on the pod, take out the old battery.
  3. HCell.png Insert the new battery.
  4. Crowbar.png Use a crowbar to close the maintenance hatch.

Changing the weapon system

The pod starts out with a taser module which shoots disabling beams, but there's also a laser module in your security locker.

  1. Crowbar.png Use a crowbar to open the maintenance hatch.
  2. Right hand midnight.png Use an empty hand on the pod, take out the old weapons system.
  3. Pod w laser.pngInsert the new weapons system.
  4. Crowbar.png Use a crowbar to close the maintenance hatch.

Repairing the pod

Repairing the pod is quite straightforward. Just make sure you cover your eyes while welding; either with a welder helmet, or with the space suit helmet.

  • Assess the situation, both on station and in space.
  • If the situation is very bad/ will become very bad in one or both of these cases, then head back to your pod bay (Assuming it's still standing.) and install the laser module onto your pod.
