Squad Engineer

Access: Squad Room, Squad Engineer Prep, wherever your tools take you. Difficulty: Medium Rank: Lance Corporal (Starting), Corporal (25 hours), Sergeant (100 hours) Class: Marines Supervisors: Squad Leader Duties: Make mad dosh by repairing miners, erect fortifications, uncorrupt power gens, secure disk generators, print disks, arm the nuke, support pushes by clearing mazes and creating alternative routes. Give yourself third degree eye burns by forgetting to flip welding googles down. Guides: Guide to Engineering, Guide to Base Building, Guide to Fire Support Quote:One crossed wire, one wayward pinch of potassium chlorate, one errant twitch... and kablooie!

SGT. Checkers H. Fleckers says: "What makes me a good Engineer? If I were a bad Engineer, I wouldn't be sittin' here, discussin' it with you now would I? You see how am I going to stop some big mean mother xenomorph from tearing me a structuarlly superfluous new behind? The answer... Is to use a gun. And if that doesn't work.... ...use more gun. Like this heavy caliber, tripod-mounted, little ol' number *slaps top of AGSL* ...and you'd best hope... It's not pointed at you."

Introduction

As an Engineer you are responsible for a wide variety of tasks which include but not limited to erecting battlefield fortifactions, setting up the foward-operating base (FOB), securing nuke disks, running intel computers, repairing miners and generating requisition points. You have a great deal of arnaments at your disposal to work with from TerraGov's armories including equipment such as powerful sentries, various types of explosive ordanance, unmanned vehicles, welders, toolboxes, razor and barbed wire

Playing the Engineer

As an engineer, you must be prepared to operate effectively with whatever assignment your squad is given. Sometimes a squad will be assigned a specific duty solely based on their engineers, building the initial FOB or repairing colony power, for example. Other times, you will be in an assault squad that's constantly on the move, assisting with demolition, entry into inaccessible areas, and making defensive areas forward of the main FOB or LZ.

The FOB is built by drone on the ship, which is far faster than building it by hand. Once the FOB shutters are raised, it will be surrounded by xenos, meaning every single marine will be trapped inside.

Almost every marine operation will have some type of FOB, and all engineers need to know how to build and maintain one of these positions. You must also learn how to set up and place defensive weapon systems like the UA 571-C Sentry. After learning these basics, you will also need to familiarize yourself with repairing mission-critical infrastructure such as colony power generators, APCs, and miners to provide req with points. These activities will make up the bulk of your job, but further learning includes demolition using C4 and remote charges, welding, repair, hacking, construction, and on-site salvaging for any material you could use.

Control click the teleporter while in hand to deploy. Wrench to pick up. Needs power to function. Can insert powercells to power it. Crowbar to remove power cell Can be repaired with a welder. Logistics APCs Repairing Broken APC If the APC is only broken usually a result of xenos slashing. Mend all of the wires (Make sure to wear insulated gloves) Screwdriver the APC to close the cover Repairing/Relocating APC Deconstruction In order to relocate/repair a completely destroyed APC () you will need to deconstruct it. Screwdriver the APC to unexpose the wires if they are exposed (), make sure the wires are mended first using wirecutters (). (Or just hit the APC with any tool to remove the cover if it's destroyed) (Only if the APC isn't destroyed): Unlock the cover by swiping your ID (or pulsing the right wire with a multitool if your ID doesn't have access) and disengaging the lock on the APC window, and use the crowbar on it to open the cover. Remove the power cell with an empty hand. Crowbar the floor tile underneath the APC to expose the terminal. (If it is not already exposed) Wire cut the APC to disconnect the terminal. (You will get 10 cable coil) Screwdriver the APC to loosen the power board. Crowbar the APC to remove the board. (You won't get a power control board if it's from a destroyed APC) Weld the APC to get 1 metal and deconstruct it (WARNING: Some areas can have another APC taking over if deconstructed, preventing you from placing a new APC). Or click it with an APC frame (made with 2 metal) to replace and repair it. Construction To construct a new APC you will need to: Make an APC frame with 2 metal, dismantle surrounding tables (if any) using wrench if you do not have 2 metal. Attach APC frame to a wall (On a more strategic location ideally) (Optional) Crowbar the floor tile underneath the APC. (If it is not already exposed) (Optional) Use 10 Cable Coils on the APC to make a terminal. Connect the terminal to the colony's cable power grid if it's powered. Insert a Power Control Module (APC) Board. (You can also use the General Circuit Boards if you multitool it to turn it into a APC Board) Screwdriver the APC to secure the board. Insert power cell into APC, make sure it has charge. Crowbar the APC to close the cover. If left open, xenos can slash the APC to destroy the battery. Unlock the APC using an ID with access, or expose the wires and pulse the right wire using multitool if your ID does not have access. Turn the main breaker on it starts off by default. Replacing an APC power cell Assuming the APC is undamaged, first unlock the APC if it is not already with an ID card with APC access. Access the interface and disable the cover lock. Crowbar open the cover. Remove the drained power cell (if there is one) with a free hand. Install a charged power cell. Crowbar the cover closed. (Optional) Lock the APC with the ID. The cover lock will automatically engage. Repairing Robots & Synthetics Not all crew are organic, and even some Organic Crew have had the misfortune to lose a limb and receive a prosthetic replacement. Robotic Personnel and limbs alike can not be healed or repaired with your standard medicine, and instead require a little bit of Engineering to restore them back to full integrity. Robots, Synths or Marines with prosthetic limps require the attention of an Engineer or similar equipped crew to Repair them. Robots have the same revive timer as normal humans (5 minutes) but can not get CPR to extend the timer. Synthetics have an infinite revive timer even if it says they are cold they can still be revived. Tools and Repair equipment. Robotic Repair Tools Repair Tool Description and Use Repair Amount Welding Tool Repairs brute damage. Standard welders hold 20 fuel, larger welders can be found in engineering supplies. 1 second use time on others, 3 seconds to self apply Requires eye protection (welding googles) Does not require engineering skills to use for repair Consumes 2 fuel to repairs 15 Brute per application, to targeted limb. Cable Coil Repairs burn damage. Can be found stacks up to 30. 1 second use time on others, 3 seconds to self apply. Does not require protective gear (insulated gloves.) Does not require engineering skills to use for repair. Each application consumes 1 cable coil and repairs 15 burn damage to targeted limb. Nanopaste Nanopaste heals brute and burn damage in the selected part of the body. Comes stacks of up to 10. Takes 1 second to apply others and yourself. Does not loop. (Will not attempt to reapply automatically.) Does not require any special equipment or skills to heal. Medical might kill you if you steal their surgery nanopaste to heal a Combat Robot. Repairs 15 brute and 15 burn per application to targeted limb. Defibrillator Defibrillators can revive disabled (Dead) Robots and Synthetics. Has an internal power cell with 1000W charge. Consumes 66 power per revival attempt (Success or Fail) (15 uses per charge) Can only revive Synth if Brute and Burn damage total is below 200. Will always revive Combat Robots, setting their health to 1. Requires Medical Skills to use effectively, non-medical personnel will fumble and take longer to use. On successful use, revives the Robot or Synth How to Repair First, Identify a Robot, Synth or Prosthetic that is damaged and needs repair. HealthHUD will help with this, and examining a Marine and seeing a Prosthetic Limb will also help. Next, you need to determine what kind of damage the limb has. A Health Scanner will show you exactly what kind of damage the limb has, but examining the limb and seeing it is Dented will indicate Brute Damage to the limb. If the Limb is charred, then Burn damage is present. Target the Limb that is damaged, or you want to repair first if multiple limbs are damaged, and use the appropriate tool on help intent until the limb is completely healed of that damage type, you will be informed the lack of damage. Tips As of the 10th of August 2023, Engineer slots now scale properly per 5 spawned marines, so don't feel pressued to not play engineer due to limited slots as they become more avaliable and anbundant as more people spawn in. An easy and in general useful for everything way of spending all your vendor points is to purchase 220 metal, 50 plasteel, high capacity blowtorch, hand held recharger and either a superior welding module or googles (Personal preference) This will leave you with one point left As of July 11th 2021 there are 12 engineer slots per round, and usually only 2-4 engineers; So don't feel pressured to not play engineer in order to let more experienced players play as engineer. An easy way to spend all your vendor points as engineer is to buy 100 metal, 70 plasteel, and 1 turret and you will only have 1 points remaining Pulsing the Contraband wire can give you some goodies. (Removed) Pulsing the Engineer System Vendor gives you the Super Capacity cell with 20000 power. Pulsing the YouTool vendor gives you the high-capacity industrial blowtorch with 80u of fuel. It is unfortunately normal size and can't fit in the toolbelt but can fit in the tool pouch. No longer in YouTool vendors. Pulsing the Autolathe vendor gives you the industrial blowtorch with 40u. Same size as the regular blowtorch.
