# Cargo
|
|
|
|
The Supply department, also known as [color=cyan]Cargo[/color], supplies the station with necessary resources, such as fuel and raw materials, and comfort resources, such as lottery tickets and plushies.
|
|
|
|
They raise the [color=cyan]spesos[/color] (the currency of the station) for this through many methods, such as taking bounties, selling miscellaneous items, and salvaging, allowing them to purchase a wide variety of equipment from off-station for any crew member's needs. It is Cargo's job to fulfill the needs of the rest of the station.
|
|
|
|
## Personnel
|
|
|
|
Cargo is made up of [color=cyan]Cargo Technicians[/color] and [color=cyan]Salvage Specialists[/color] and is led by the [color=cyan]Quartermaster[/color].

## Making Money
|
|
|
|
The main struggle of any Cargo department is not having enough money.
|
|
|
|
Cargo makes their money by selling things at the [color=cyan]Trading Station[/color]. Almost everything on the station has economic value that you can sell, as seen via the [color=cyan]appraisal tool[/color]. That value then further increases when you sell it as part of a [textlink="bounty" link="CargoBounties"].
|
|
|
|
<Box>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="AppraisalTool"/>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="CargoPallet"/>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="CrateGenericSteel"/>
|
|
</Box>
|
|
|
|
Upon finding something valuable, bring it to the [color=cyan]Cargo Bay[/color]. If it fits inside a [color=cyan]Crate[/color], find an empty crate and put the items in it.
|
|
|
|
If the [color=cyan]Cargo Shuttle[/color] is away, you can put all the items you want to sell onto the [color=cyan]Cargo Pallets[/color]. Once the shuttle has docked at the station, you load the crates and everything else to be sold onto it.

|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="ComputerPalletConsole"/>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="CargoPalletSell"/>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="ComputerCargoOrders"/>
|
|
</Box>
|
|
|
|
After the shuttle is loaded, fly it to the Trade Station. There, move the sellable items onto the green [color=cyan]Cargo Selling Pallets[/color], and then go to the [color=cyan]Cargo Sale Computer[/color] and click [italic]"Sell"[/italic].
|
|
|
|
Now, you can take those spesos and bring them back to the station and deposit them into the [color=cyan]Cargo Request Computer[/color].
|
|
|
|
You can also make even more money by completing [textlink="bounties" link="CargoBounties"] or selling valuable items from [textlink="salvage" link="Salvage"].
|
|
|
|
## Ordering
|
|
|
|
<Box>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="ComputerCargoOrders"/>
|
|
</Box>
|
|
|
|
Every order begins at a [color=cyan]Cargo Request Computer[/color]. First and foremost, making an order requires that Cargo has enough spesos. If Cargo doesn't have the money, get some.
|
|
|
|
It is also the sole discretion of Cargo to fulfill any given request. If Cargo is tight on spesos, they are free to deny requests that are not immediately necessary.
|
|
|
|
To make an order, click the name of whatever is requested, provide the recipient, type an appropriate reason for why they need it, and then press "Approve" on the order.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes a public Cargo Request Computer exists, in which case all you need to do is approve orders that people make themselves.

<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="CargoPalletBuy"/>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="PaperCargoInvoice"/>
|
|
</Box>
|
|
|
|
Then, to collect the order, it must be transported back to the station from the [color=cyan]Trading Station[/color].
|
|
|
|
In the Trading Station, on the [color=cyan]Cargo Buying Pallets[/color], is a crate holding that order. Load it onto the shuttle and fly it back.
|
|
|
|
Once it is at the Cargo Dock, you can read the [color=cyan]Cargo Invoice[/color] label on it to find out the intended recipient. Finally, deliver it to them.
|
|
|
|
## Piloting
|
|
|
|
Orders are delivered to the station via the orbiting [color=cyan]Trade Station[/color] and are transported to the main station by the [color=cyan]Cargo Shuttle[color]. The shuttle does not fly itself, so it must either be piloted in the shuttle or remotely.
|
|
|
|
<Box>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="ComputerShuttleCargo"/>
|
|
</Box>
|
|
|
|
To fly the shuttle, you must first find the [color=cyan]Cargo Shuttle Console[/color]. One is inside the Cargo Bay, and the other is inside the Cargo Shuttle.
|
|
|
|
After interacting with the computer, there should be a navigation view from the shuttle. Here are the steps for piloting the shuttle to and from the Trading Station:
|
|
|
|
- First, switch to the [color=yellow]"DOCK"[/color] screen and [color=yellow]undock[/color] any airlocks between the shuttle and the station.
|
|
- Now, with the shuttle disconnected, you can pilot it. [italic]Remember that you are flying in space and momentum is conserved[/italic].
|
|
- The controls are [color=yellow][keybind="ShuttleStrafeUp"][/color] and [color=yellow][keybind="ShuttleStrafeDown"][/color] for strafing up and down, [color=yellow][keybind="ShuttleStrafeLeft"][/color] and [color=yellow][keybind="ShuttleStrafeRight"][/color] for strafing left and right, and [color=yellow][keybind="ShuttleRotateLeft"][/color] and [color=yellow][keybind="ShuttleRotateRight"][/color] for turning left and right. To brake, press [color=yellow][keybind="ShuttleBrake"][/color].
|
|
- Then pilot the shuttle to the [color=cyan]Trade Station[/color].
|
|
- Once you are there, [color=yellow]dock[/color] to the airlocks and you are done.
