Hidden technologies are Research technologies that cannot be unlocked via normal means but must be unlocked by achieving a Major Success in the BEPIS chamber.
Technologies
Specialized Engineering
"Conventional wisdom has deemed these engineering products 'technically' safe, but far too dangerous to traditionally condone."
Tinker's Gloves
|
Found in: Engineering Techfab after research Used for: Improving construction speed by approx 1/3 (needs verification) Strategy: Rapidly rebuilding engineering after a supermatter delamination, or showing off in an epic build-off.
|
Description
|
These overdesigned engineering gloves have automated construction subrutines dialed in, allowing for faster construction while worn.
CAUTION: NOT INSULATED.

Lava-Resistant Metal Rods
|
Found in: Any Techfab after research Used for: Constructing on lava
|
Description
|
Treated, specialized metal rods. When exposed to the vaccum of space their coating breaks off, but they can hold up against the extreme heat of active lava.

Australicus Security Protocols
"It is said that security in the Australicus sector is tight, so we took some pointers from their equipment. Thankfully, our sector lacks any sign of these, 'dropbears'."
Outback Firing Pin
|
Found in: Security Techfab after research Used for: Preventing weapon discharges while on the station. Strategy: Give these to cargo to let them use weapons in lavaland without risking the station.
|
Description
|
A firing pin used by the austrailian defence force, retrofit to prevent weapon discharge on the station.

OZtek Boomerang
|
Found in: Security Techfab after research Used for: When provided with a power cell and turned on, stuns anybody it hits and returns to the thrower. Strategy: Use for a particularily interesting way to gear your security officers.
|
Description
|
A device invented in 2486 for the great Space Emu War by the confederacy of Australicus, these high-tech boomerangs also work exeptionally well at stunning crewmembers.
Just be careful to catch it when thrown!

Illumination Applications
"Applications of lighting and vision technology not originally thought to be commercially viable."
Workplace-Ready Firefighter Helmet
|
Found in: All Techfab's once researched Used for: Adding a light to firefighter Helmet Strategy: A Brilliant way to be robust!
|
Description
|
By applying state of the art lighting technology to a fire helmet, and using photo-chemical hardening methods, this hardhat will protect you from robust workplace hazards.
|
|
Mini Rapid Light Device
|
Found in: Cargo & Engineering Techfab's once researched Used for: Rapid light construction.
|
Description
|
A device used to rapidly provide lighting sources to an area. Reload with metal, plasteel, glass or compressed matter cartridges.
The Mini Rapid Light Device (MRLD) has three functions:
- Light Launcher: Shoots a lit glowstick that lies on the floor and can be picked up or dragged.
- Deconstruct: Deconstructs any light within eyesight even through windows.
- Permanent Light Construction: Constructs lights anywhere within eyesight, even through windows. When used on a wall it will create a wall light fixture, when used on the floor it will create a floor light.

Nanite Replication Protocols
"Advanced behaviors that allow nanites to exploit certain circumstances to replicate faster."
Unlocks Specialized replication Protocols For Nanites.
Advanced Grapple Technology
"Nanotrasen would like to remind its researching staff that it is never acceptable to "glomp" your coworkers, and further "scientific trials" on the subject will no longer be accepted in its academic journals."
Gives access to the Dolphin and Rocket Tackle Gloves, for advanced soaring.
