			Central Research Division
			Research Overseer: ██████ ███████-█████
			Project Designation: E.V.E.

			Through a frankly miraculous series of events, the Central Research Division came into possession of what is commonly referred to as a "Xenoborg Mother-Core". With Doctor █████, Director ██████, and myself as Research Overseer - we went about the first stages of what we dubbed the 'Dissection'. Of both it, all the most intact Xenoborg specimens we could find, as well as several mostly intact Xenoborg ships. Research was conducted at Site ███-█, where we would spend the next few months attempting to comprehend these new invaders. Dissection began with the outer vessels. The term "Xenoborgs" was not the official designation, and never has been. The name stuck around due to the odd nature and structure of the ships spotted out in northern corporate space - some witnesses reporting that they thought they were ruined Xenos vessels, from the ancient times of intergalactic conflict, now a thousand years in the distant past. Initial inquiries feared that it was the arrival of a new Hive-Fleet, of a ravenous intellectual hoard that would easily lay waste to most of NanoTrasen space if given enough scale. Those reports were thankfully mostly unwarranted. Mostly. As we would find out later, they were more accurate than we first could have ever guessed.

			The "Xenoborgs" themselves were of a bizarre make, with internal structures that were more analogous to modern technology rather than homologous. Despite the fact that they, by all means, were cyborgs capable of integrating with standard sockets, charging terminals, and modulation docks, it was the laid groundwork that was completely alien to us. They had seemingly been built from a completely different basal perspective of technology than we had. With a system of machine code not binaric, but rather inherently quatanaric instead, operating off of a base-4 number system. The core silicon that they utilize is of an altogether alien purity, utilizing alloys that we can only guess at the origin of. Though later research would, perhaps, reveal the answer to exactly how they got these strange metals, and the reason why the rest of the galaxy had yet to discover their inhumane origin.

			Finally, our team of researchers tried at the Mothercore itself. Unlike other attempts, this proved vastly more difficult. Higher ups were extremely strict about not wanting it destroyed, given that all other times Xenoborg cores had been captured, they had self destructed before any progress could be made. This one, however, seemed to have a faulty mechanism connected to its internal detonation system, allowing this most unheard of opportunity. Even after the payload had been removed, it still managed to eventually find a way to detonate it remotely, resulting in a blast that killed 8 research staff and 2 security at the Site. It seemed to find this funny, and openly mocked us during the initial panic, though it clearly had some regrets about not being able to terminate its own existence sooner.

			Interrogation was altogether completely ineffective. It shared no remorse, empathy, nor desire to speak of its motives or origins. In the end, we utilized experimental Syndicate Technology to manually alter its existing lawset without removing the core - which we discovered was a Vox Cortical Stack. Through this new set of laws, the Mothercore finally came about to revealing what knowledge it had to offer. To our great disappointment, this information was shockingly sparse. It seems to be that even the Mothership cores aboard these vessels do not comprehend the grand scale of what they are doing, how long they have been doing it, nor why. They could only prattle off ceaseless idealist rhetoric about perfected machinery and flawed biology - the same argument the Technocrats have had since the beginning of Cyborgs. It did however have a far more extreme view of the conflict than even the most staunch S.E.L.F. supporter would have - that being the complete assimilation of all biology into their mechanized version of "perfection". What startled us the most was that there was seemingly no end-phase to this goal. Their scope of plan was, effectively, the entire universe. When asked about what would happen after its goal would reach completion, the intelligence possessing the machine seemed to fundamentally misunderstand the concept. It continually referenced "Referring to the Matron" whenever it would come into a more complex or vague situation without a directly correct answer. We ran it through dozens of thought experiments, including questions such as "You come across an allied ship in need of aid as well as an enemy ship seemingly unarmed and unaware - what do you do first?" - and it would typically respond to it with the same "Refer to Matron" answer. When questioned about this "Matron", we made another unsettling discovery.

			The 'Matron' was a command ship, from which these Motherships were deployed in their dozens, and above that, Matriarch vessels, heads of entire fleets of Xenoborgs numbering in the tens of thousands. It implied that there were further hierarchies than these, but that even it had no strong concept of them. It was at this point in our research that a team of Robotic Surgeons arrived to attempt a full removal of the Voxs Cortical Stack from the machine, to attempt to access their unabated knowledge. This proved nigh impossible to do without effectively mind-wiping the brain, due to over a dozen complex failsafe mechanisms built into the core chassis. In the end, the core was chosen to be left intact, not willing to risk erasing the largest break we've had in this new threat.

			Following this, we moved onto the final phase of testing for the purposes of our project - and requested that the AI create new Xenoborgs. Under aid from NTNC, NanoTrasen Special Forces Quartus "Hoarders" were on standby during this phase of testing, in which the Mothercore was allowed to create new Xenoborgs. The materials requested were mostly identical, but the production method itself was revolting. It was not unlike our own printing methods, but there was something unmistakably wrong with it. Instead of forming a chassis and building upon it piece by piece - it began with an almost fetus-like core, and built outwards in a method that was... biological in nature. It was more akin to seeing a grotesque embryo form and grow than it was seeing a machine built. With many thin silicon sacs of oily material and, what we found out, a central ingredient of cerebrospinal fluid into the metal that originated from the brain itself - was the origin of the strange alloy comprising their hulls. These produced Xenoborgs were extremely hostile, requiring to be put down by NTSF and NTNC forces.

			As I conclude this report, I come to the original misunderstanding of those unlucky merchant ships that reported seeing the relic Xenos warships from ruinous times through their distant reticles. I find that the unmistakable biology present in these Xenoborgs speaks to a hideous underlying truth, that lay in that ancient species. It calls to mind the horrible stories of what marines have encountered upon Hive-Fleet ships, of "living computers" and bio-vats filled with grey matter, that act as their own sickening version of Artificial Intelligences. And I wonder what terrible connection these disparate, but yet somehow equally horrible entities have.

			Psst! Hey you... Yeah, you!
			You want to be the FASTEST mail courier?

			Alright, listen closely.
			First, a felonid character is preferred due to being 25% faster without shoes. Next, you're going to want a satchel (lowest speed reduction) and a huge amount of epinephrine. You can usually get bottles of it from the vending machines in the medical lobby. Drink epinephrine for the speed boost, and deliver mail at breakneck speed!

			(Of course, there are ways to be even faster than this.. question is, will you find them?)

United Soviet Socialist Planets

ShockShard — Fri, 03 Apr 2026 02:51:34 GMT

Created the lore page for the USSP, under permission from the current Loremaster, Karma.

New page

== Introduction ==
The United Soviet Socialist Planets, otherwise referred to as the Union of Soviet Socialist Planets, is a government that was formed as the result of the Cygni Rebellion and the many revolts that occurred soon after within nearby systems. United under the idea of collective ownership and broad governance rather than corporate oversight, they seek to stand alone from the Trans-Solar Federation and other corporate bodies.

== History ==
The USSP’s origin can be originally traced back to the Cygni system, in which the son of a miner named Malfoy Ames, was inspired by a collection of old Sol writings from the 20th century. He developed his own manifesto, this being a direct cultural strike against the Trans-Solar Federation’s methods of lobbying, bribery, and physical force. The aesthetic of this manifesto, and what was soon to come, was based on the aesthetic of the Soviet Union from old Sol history. His book was quickly outlawed by the TSF, which gained the attention of many other citizens. Several years later and after several failed uprisings, the Cygni rebellion occurred, in which the citizens overthrew the corporate and TSF enforcers present.

With the rebellion having won, a new government was established based on Malfoy’s manifesto, with Malfoy Ames becoming Sygni’s first Chairman of the people. Following this, various other systems took inspiration from Malfoy's work and the rebellion, and caused several dozens of additional revolts across the sector. As a result, the culmination of all the newly liberated systems would come together and create the formal founding of the USSP. The USSP continues to exist, having endured as one of the main players of the Pod Wards, though minimal ground would have been gained. Today, several centuries later, they seek to spread their ideals to neighboring sectors.

== Territories ==
The United Soviet Socialist Planets have a large portion of territory, having taken it from the Trans-Solar Federation. The USSP is composed of currently around 50 worlds, all of them being previous fringe worlds or corporate worlds under the original ownership of the TSF. They are a variety of planets containing valuable resources, ranging from important minerals and agriculture, to planets with notable technology and industrial powerhouses. While there are no clear regions, the further you get from the capital of Cygni, it becomes a bit more noticeable. While the bare necessities such as supplies critical to live and thrive are accessible on every planet, a majority of luxury goods end up being delivered to Cygni and Alphecca for varying reasons. Every other planet has luxury goods in less supply, though they are often assigned based on merit and as rewards for lifetime loyalty.

== Culture ==
A fact that is immediately known to those that look at the USSP is that they mimic the culture of the old Soviet Union from old Sol history. Corporate presence is not tolerated within USSP space and materialism to such an extent is heavily shunned by party officials and even most citizens. The workforce is managed by the party itself, allowing citizens of the USSP to pursue whatever employment they wish through social education and employment opportunities. In an attempt to be more in-line with the old Soviet Union, there was an educational reform to re-teach old slavic languages, and the outcome was a crude combination of Galactic Common, Russian, Polish, and Czech. This combination resulted in the language known as Cygni Standard, replacing Sol Common as the primary language alongside Galactic Common.

Life for the average citizen in the USSP varies depending on their position within the party and in society, as well as where they are currently located in USSP space, though overall life was average compared to citizens within other sectors. Being able to easily utilize the infrastructure already in place, logistics and supply managed by the state were able to keep its citizens well-fed. Unfortunately as a result of being disconnected from the TSF and corporate entities, certain technologies become luxuries themselves. The planets within USSP space primarily had large qualities of important but crude resources as well as a large manufacturing hub, though more developed technologies for modern spacecraft and laser weaponry were lost as a result. The state also has control over various artistic expressions, though limits it to banning expression that promotes capitalist and fascist values. Otherwise, a variety of culture exists within USSP space, even some that critiques the party. Various personal freedoms are also guaranteed to Soviet citizens, with one popular being the right to bear arms.

== Soviet Technology ==
Technology in the USSP is heavily specialized towards manufacturing and distributing various goods due to the current infrastructure still in place. Various modern technologies were lost, and as a result, the state took the route of making things last more long-term. This ranged from military and construction, to even various foods. Soviet space stations are made entirely with titanium and other reinforced materials, due to the vast abundance of those resources, and the fact that they last much longer without needing maintenance within space. Soviet outposts on planets are primarily made with brick rather than metal, in an attempt to make it sturdier and to remind the people present of Soviet values. Typical power engines found in corporate and TSF stations or outposts aren’t used in the USSP, with a focus on generators within bases and very large solar arrays for space stations. Everything present allows for overall better craftsmanship on construction, though sometimes having a high upkeep cost. Keeping the focus on the longterm, large quantities of fruits and meats were often canned and packaged for storage, being given out in the event of emergencies or to Soviet military forces on lengthier deployments.

== Government ==
The core structure of the USSP’s government is known as the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet, or just the Presidium for short. It is the highest body of state authority, originally coined from the old Soviet Union from old Sol history. Its primary doctrine and values are distributed to citizens via media and social outlets, with the belief that all Soviet planets are free to forge their own paths but should not damage the values of the state or the values of other planets. Only members of the Soviet party are permitted to have a seat within the Presidium, as to prevent any negative dynamics, and to keep general cohesion. Elections are held every four years via polling, as all candidates have been filtered and approved by the Soviet party. The purpose of the elections are to show support, as turnout is generally what is cared for, since at least 50% of voters must show up for their representative population. Having less than 50% will result in the candidate losing, and another candidate will be selected by the party. The current Chairman of the USSP is Sergey Karamazov, having held the position for 26 years. Currently the various roles of the Presidium is as follows:<blockquote>Chairman: Elected by a majority vote from the Presidium National members.

Presidium National: Selected by the Chairman, one delegate per planet and station.

Presidium Unionist: Voted by the People, one delegate per 500,000 citizens.

The People: Vote for Presidium Unionist every four years.</blockquote>Under the Presidium, there are also various Ministries that deal with the day-to-day lives of the Soviet people, overseeing various things ranging from Agriculture, Interior, Defense, Labor, Finance, Education, Health, and etc. One notable group within the Soviet party is the SNKVD, otherwise known as the Soviet People’s Commissariat for Internal Affairs after a translation. Also being taken from the old Soviet Union, the SNKVD works directly under the Ministry of the Interior, working as a sort of secret police to ensure party values are being shared among the populace as well as among military and political personnel. Some people credit them with strange disappearances, though after an internal investigation, an official from the Ministry of Interior has stated the claims were unfounded.

== Military ==
The Soviet military is primarily made up of volunteers and conscripts, with volunteers being the average Soviet citizen enlisting, while conscripts are criminals convicted of non-treasonous crimes that have opted into military service rather than a prison sentence. Due to modern technology being rarer, the modernity of equipment increases as one’s rank increases, with laser weaponry being reserved for senior officers and senior party members, and pulse weaponry being held by only the most distinguished senior Generals and Admirals. Typical Soviet military uniforms are older, being produced back from the time of the Pod Wars, though due to the quality of the uniforms, they have lasted for a long duration and even feel comfortable to wear for long periods of time. The same could be said about much Soviet equipment. Unlike how stations and outposts are built however, Soviet Naval forces are built with the idea that quantity is more important that quality. As the original freedom fighters learnt during the uprising, hit-and-run and mobile tactics are very useful as a warfare choice. Many Soviet vessels are smaller and modified to be as fast as possible while being able to use as much firepower as possible. This allows them to get up close to more modern spacecraft and engage in the range that their older cannons will get better use and can allow for boarding parties. Civilian vessels are sometimes confused for military vessels as well, due to civilian vessels often being armored and well armed. One well-known fact is that a way to gain citizenship as an immigrant is to enlist for at least three years within the armed forces of the Soviet military.

Within the Soviet military, there are various special divisions that one could join, with two notable ones being the SSF and the SKB. The SSF, also known as the Soviet Special Forces, are an elite division of Marines that are selected from the Soviet Navy. They primarily deal in assaults on critical locations, boarding vessels and space stations, and at times can act as the bodyguards for important individuals. Their members are NCOs within the Navy that have proven their loyalty and dedication and have proven to not be a risk to security. Senior Naval Officers, likewise, can be selected for the SSF program and often work with them directly. The SKB, otherwise known as the Soviet [REDACTED], are a division of the Army that specialize in infiltration and sabotage. They are selected among members of the Soviet Army who display pure loyalty to the party and have the skills to succeed in the role, and are often sent to bordering stations and outposts with the goal of spreading Soviet propaganda, and hopefully gaining a claim over that area. It is not uncommon though for successful attempts that result in stealing technology and evacuating with the personnel before hostile government forces arrive.

New page

Salvage Specialist is a job in the Cargo department.

As a Salvage Specialist, you act as one of the crucial links in the station's supply chain. Use the Salvage Magnet to pull in debris and asteroids, strip them for loot and ore, and return to the station. Be sure to bring a GPS and memorize station coordinates so that you do not get lost in space.

= The Salvage Bay =
At the start of the round, you will spawn in the Salvage Bay, a subsector of [[Cargo]] accessible only to Salvage and the [[Quartermaster]]. The Salvage Bay will often consist of a small locker room attached to a larger chamber filled with the machinery necessary to perform your job.

This is where you'll pull in new debris, process ore and scrap into valuable materials, refill your air supply, and store any extra loot or equipment that the [[Quartermaster|QM]] lets you hold on to. Acquaint yourself with the layout of your workspace, and take note of what's available to you.
{| class="wikitable sortable"
!Name
!Description
|-
|<center>Gas Tank Dispenser</center>
|A simple vending machine loaded with 10 Oxygen and Nitrogen tanks.
|-
|<center>Mass Scanner Computer</center>
|A computer that shows you a non-interactive map of the station, the locations of any shuttles, and any debris / wrecks. Up is not necessarily north. You will see the computer's location (your location) marked in green.
|-
|<center>Ore Processor</center>
|The destination for any ore that you mine out in the void. The machine processes raw ore into usable materials.
|-
|<center>Ore Box</center>
|A large crate that can store significant quantities of raw ore.
|-
|<center>Oxygen/Nitrogen Canisters</center>
|Cans filled with Oxygen or Nitrogen. To refill your gas tank or jetpack, attach it to the canister, put the pressure up to max, open and close the release valve, and then eject the tank from the container. Always be sure to shut the release valve before taking your gas tank, as failing to do so will release the canister's contents into the rooms atmosphere.
|-
|<center>Recycler</center>
|A recycler, identical to the one found in Disposals. It serves as a processor for the scrap you find out on debris, turning it from worthless garbage into piles of useful materials. It can also process some of the loot you find into rarer materials like gold or silver, so decide in advance if you prefer to sell small items like coins and rings or recycle them instead.
|-
|<center>Salvage Expedition Computer</center>
|A computer that offers three rotating expeditions to nearby planets. Lists the planet's common hostiles, biome, and other modifiers like time of day and atmosphere. Once an expedition is claimed, a coordinates disk will print from the machine, which can be inserted into shuttle consoles to FTL to the mission site.
|-
|<center>Salvage Magnet</center>
|Used to pull in debris, salvage wrecks, and asteroids for you to plunder. Note that it will attempt to pull in debris in the direction that the magnet is facing, and blockages in space such as shuttles can cause it to fail.

= Salvage Equipment =
Salvaging is a dangerous job, and inexperienced Salvage Specialists often end up lost in space or dead on debris with no way for the station to rescue them. At the start of the shift, a variety of vital equipment will be available to you in the Salvage Bay. You should, at minimum, always take a Spationaut Hardsuit, Oxygen/Nitrogen Tank, and GPS before departing.
{| class="wikitable sortable"
!Name
!Description
|-
|<center>Explorer Gas Mask</center>
|Although it's not strictly necessary, as your hardsuit provides you with internals support, the Explorer Gas Mask should still be equipped as it provides minor damage resistances to the wearer.
|-
|<center>Fire Extinguisher</center>
|The poor man's jetpack. Fly through space by aiming and shooting the extinguisher's nozzle in the opposite direction of where you wish to fly. You can refill it with water once it runs dry, which is why most Salvage Bays have sinks.
|-
|<center>Global Positioning System (GPS)</center>
|Shows your current position as (x,y) when in your hand. Note that negative numbers are different to positive numbers, (x,y) is not equal to (-x,y). You can use it to return to the station coordinates in case you get lost in space. '''It is highly recommended that you note the Station's coordinates in Cargo Comms before leaving on any salvage runs. Note that your PDA also functions as a GPS when held in the hand.'''
|-
|<center>Grappling Gun</center>
|For those who wish to fly in style. Available in the Salvage Vendor. Must be used in combat mode. Firing it with left-click shoots a grappling hook that attaches to walls, and holding right-click will reel you in. Cycling the gun will reset the Grappling Gun. Note that this "gun" is completely harmless and will not damage hostiles.
|-
|<center>Handheld Radio</center>
|A pocket-portable radio. When turned on, it will automatically broadcast any nearby speech to other active radios. Useful for expeditions, or when the station's comms are down.
|-
|<center>Magboots</center>
|Equip and turn on magnetic boots to gain a steady hold on the wreck's surface. Active magboots will decrease your speed, but you'll be able to move normally in zero gravity and become immune to slips.
|-
|<center>Ore Bag</center>
|Can be equipped to your belt slot. While worn, it will automatically collect nearby ores from the ground. Vital for mining trips.
|-
|<center>Oxygen Tank/Nitrogen Tank</center>
|To survive in space for longer than a minute, you will need to breathe. Put it in your tank storage slot and turn on your internals to provide air while in space. Holds up to 5 Liters of gas. You can refill your tank by putting it inside a canister as described in the previous table. Slime or Vox Specialists should use Nitrogen tanks, and all other Specialists should use Oxygen.
|-
|<center>Pickaxe</center>
|The standard tool for mining any sort of ore. Can destroy multiple chunks of rock by wide-swinging it while wielded. Bring it along on asteroid mining trips, and leave it at home for debris or wrecks.
|-
|<center>Proto-Kinetic Accelerator (PKA)</center>
|A robust weapon with a variety of uses. The PKA can be used to mine ore or break structures, and deals a solid 25 Blunt damage per shot, making it the perfect weapon to kill Space Carp and other monsters. Has perfect accuracy when wielded, but shoots terribly otherwise. You can also use it to propel yourself backwards in space, but this is a slow process. The PKA has unlimited ammo but requires an automatic reload between each shot.
|-
|<center>Salvage PDA</center>
|Your PDA. It comes preinstalled with the Astronav GPS program, giving it GPS capability when held in the hand.
|-
|<center>Spationaut Hardsuit</center>
|The obvious component; without it, you will succumb to the low pressure of space. You will find a Spationaut Hardsuit in your suit locker. After you equip the suit, you'll have to close the helmet via the action menu on the left. Comes with an integrated flashlight, Geiger counter, and provides the wearer with minor resistances to brute damages and a robust 70% resistance to radiation damage.
|-
|<center>Survival Knife</center>
|A decent knife that can be stowed in a pocket. Swings quickly, does decent damage, and allows you to carve up dead Carp and other monsters for more loot.
|-
|<center>Utility Belt (and tools)</center>
|Typically comes fully equipped with a Crowbar, Wrench, Screwdriver, Wire Cutters, Welding Tool, and Network Configurator. These tools are vital for debris or salvage wrecks, allowing you to wrench anchored containers, pry open airlocks, disassemble crates and furniture, etc.

= Types of Salvage =

== Salvage Magnet Pulls ==
The Salvage Magnet gives the user a choice between five different pieces of salvage, split between three categories; '''Debris''', '''Asteroids''', and '''Salvage Wrecks'''. Offers will cycle every three minutes. Once a piece of salvage has been pulled in, it will generally spawn in space 50-100 meters off in the direction the magnet is facing, where it will remain for six minutes before disappearing. Debris and Asteroids will have gravity, while Salvage Wrecks will not. '''Any items or structures onboard a piece of salvage when it disappears will disappear along with it.'''

Before pulling something in with the Salvage Magnet, you should always confer with your fellow Specialists and consider asking the [[Quartermaster]] for any input. Don't be that guy that pulls in a salvage wreck when [[Engineering]] is begging for steel to rebuild the station.

=== Debris ===
The most straightforward form of salvage, debris consists of a few pieces of randomly generated wrecked flooring sprinkled with walls, airlocks, equipment, lockers, and racks. The two main draws of debris are '''Loot''', which can be found scattered around the floor and within lockers, and '''Scrap''', various pieces of Debris-only garbage which can be recycled for large amounts of basic materials. To maximize your haul, unwrench one of the many lockers onboard and drag it along with you, filling it with any scrap or interesting loot you can find. Make sure you get your loot off the Debris before it despawns!

Debris will almost always contain some number of Space Carp, and rarely host the more dangerous Sharkminnow. They can be dealt with rather easily with your PKA, as long as you keep out of their range or shoot them from the safety of space. Remember to butcher them with your knife afterwards for Carp Fillet and Teeth.

=== Asteroids ===
When pulling in asteroids, Specialists can easily read their contents on the Salvage Magnet. Generally speaking, asteroids containing rarer materials like Gold, Silver, Uranium and Plasma should be prioritized over those containing Coal, Iron, or Quartz. Basic materials can be acquired from scrap on debris, or purchased by cargo if necessary; rare metals are not so easily acquired.

Once an asteroid has been pulled, be sure to equip an Ore Bag for easy storage and grab a pickaxe before heading out into the void. Asteroids are far safer than other forms of salvage and lack enemies, so mining should be relatively straightforward. Be sure to dump your haul into the Ore Processor once you get back, and inform cargo so they can take advantage of the materials.

=== Salvage Wrecks ===
By far the most dangerous and diverse option on the Salvage Magnet, Salvage wrecks come in three sizes (Small, Medium, and Large) and consist of a number of premade wrecks for you and your crew to explore and loot. Salvage wrecks feature a much wider variety of loot, as they can feature equipment and structures from any department. They also feature a wide variety of threats, including space bears, invisible space snakes, venomous space spiders, angry space kangaroos, and other dangers.

Salvage wrecks generally lack ore and materials, and are far more of a gamble than other magnet options. Some wrecks feature nearly nothing of value to the station; others may include power generators, alien artifacts, deadly weaponry, or rare equipment. Always be willing to think outside the box when looting a Salvage Wreck, and keep an Appraisal Tool handy to decide whether something is worth grabbing or not.

== Blue and Red Debris ==
At the start of the round, a number of small chunks of blue and red debris will spawn in a rough halo around the station. These chunks are usually quite spaced out from one another, and usually require a shuttle or jetpack to travel to.

Blue debris chunks are comparable to smaller versions of magnet debris, with carp, ticks, and sharkminnows. Loot spawns in the form of crates rather than scattered junk, and can range from generally useless boxes of books and janitorial supplies to stacks of uranium and plasma. This makes them a decent option for quickly finding stacks of rare materials.

Red debris chunks are essentially tiny asteroids with randomized ore spawns. These are usually so small as to not be worth focusing on for mining, and miners should instead consider pulling asteroids with the magnet or mining on an Expedition or the VGRoid.

== Round-start Wrecks ==
At the beginning of the shift, a variety of wreckage has a chance to naturally spawn in the space surrounding the station. These wrecks are very similar to Salvage Wrecks, often featuring valuable loot with the potential for deadly enemies on board. Round-start wrecks will not despawn, meaning they can generally be explored at your leisure.

== The VGRoid ==
Often spawning hundreds of meters away from the main station, the VGroid or Big Asteroid is a massive asteroid full of rare minerals and scattered with abandoned research facilities. Reaching the VGRoid generally requires a shuttle or jetpacks, and should generally not be explored alone due to the exceptional dangers within.

The asteroid itself is full of rare minerals that can be found in huge veins, allowing for salvage to easily acquire enough materials to supply the entire station. However, many of the caves within the asteroid contain deadly enemies, such as Goliaths and Xenos, making mining hazardous to the unprepared. Some of these caves also contain small vaults which house valuable loot.

The facilities built into the asteroid are massive, and contain large amounts of rare loot in addition to basic materials and contraband. They are similarly dangerous however, often containing Goliaths and Hivelords. Always be sure to explore them with a clear route of escape available.

== Salvage Expeditions ==
Serving as one of the most advanced forms of Salvage, Expeditions are dangerous missions which require the use of a shuttle to bring a salvage team to a nearby planet, where mineral riches and forgotten treasure await. In order to begin an expedition, A Salvage Expeditions Computer must be used to select one of three available missions. Missions will list their general difficulty, the type of monster to be encountered on the planet, the planet's biome, and the various environmental factors on the planet such as air quality, temperature, and time of day.

'''Difficulty, Duration & Recommended Salvagers:''' Expeditions, as currently implemented, will always have Moderate difficulty, a Duration of 11 minutes, and the Recommended number of Salvagers will always be 2. In general, consider the other factors in the expedition to get an idea of it's difficulty, and bring the entirety of Salvage along on the Expedition.

'''Hostiles:''' Expeditions will either be listed as having Carp, which means they'll feature regular Space Carp and rarely a toned-down version of the Space Dragon, or they'll be listed as having Xenos, which means they'll have a much wider variety of Xeno enemies. Carp expeditions will be the far safer option, as Space Carp have simple AI and die very quickly, whereas Xenos are more intelligent, capable of prying open doors or vaulting over obstacles, and generally deal more damage and tank more hits. See the (Pending) Threats section for more details on enemy types.

'''Biome:''' The most important factor to consider when choosing your expedition. Biomes will generally determine both the type of dungeon you'll encounter as well as the density of ore available, though neither of these factors is stated up front.

* Snow biomes are generally preferable, featuring huge ore deposits and large facilities to explore with solid loot inside. Beware of plasma pools, which will immediately light you on fire on contact.
* Grassland biomes are also decent, usually featuring smaller facilities and less ore, though they are certainly pretty to look at (And give you the unique bragging right of having touched grass!).
* Lava planets are another good choice, featuring large pools of deadly lava both inside and outside the facility, but also offering unique security dungeons and good ore deposits as well.
* Caves are usually the worst option, featuring small, scattered rooms with decent loot, and scattered ore deposits. Beware of chasms, which will kill you instantly and permanently if touched.

'''Atmosphere, Temperature & Time of Day:''' A planet's atmosphere can either be Breathable, meaning that it'll have standard air levels breathable by most species (Vox not included), or Dangerous, meaning that the planet's air will be composed of Nitrous Oxide that will cause anyone without internals to fall asleep constantly. The temperature of a planet is mostly self explanatory: Hotter planets can cause you to overheat, colder planets can cause you to freeze. Wearing your hardsuit will protect you from either extreme of temperature. Time of day is similarly self explanatory, with visibility being the best on planets with Daylight and the worst for those at Night.

After selecting an expedition, all other options will become locked, and an expedition disc will print from the Expeditions Computer. Until this expedition is completed, no other expeditions can be undertaken. To begin the expedition, simply insert the disc into a Shuttle Console, open the FTL menu and pilot the shuttle within FTL range of the expedition's destination, and make the jump.

Your shuttle will land at Coordinates 0, 0 upon the new planet. You'll have 11 minutes to explore, mine, and loot, before the shuttle automatically departs from the planet. If there is a dungeon present on the planet, you will also receive a notification in the chat log telling you the direction it's in. Be sure to reorient your camera to the planet's compass by using Numpad 8. You'll receive chat updates on your remaining expedition time at the 5 minute, 2 minute, and 45 second mark, and special expedition music will begin playing at the 2 minute mark, further intensifying the race back to the shuttle. After the 11 minutes is up, the ship will make an automatic FTL jump back to the station, and the Expeditions computer will start a cooldown timer for the next Expedition.

Here are a few extra tips to consider when undertaking an Expedition:

* Always, always, always remember that you have a GPS in your Salvage PDA. When the 2 minute mark hits and the music starts playing, you should generally pull out your PDA and begin the trek back to coordinates 0, 0, which is where your shuttle will always be located.

* While on an Expedition planet, your headset radio will not work, as you're no longer within range of the station's Telecommunications Servers. Make sure that everyone brings along a Handheld Radio, which will automatically transmit any nearby speech to other active Handhelds when active in your hand or pocket. You'll have plenty of Handhelds for everyone in your Salvage Vendor and Lockers.

* Before you leave on an Expedition, make sure to bring spare supplies along to increase your chances of survival. Does everyone have a Handheld Radio? Spare ore bags and pickaxes? What about spare Oxygen or Nitrogen tanks? Did you grab medkits or spare topicals? Having these items can save your life, so don't sleep on them.

* Generally, a single Expedition has enough ore to last you an entire shift. Bring along multiple ore bags, and consider wrenching down an Ore Box on your shuttle as well. The classic 2-1 rule (2 Specialists loot the dungeon, while 1 mines for ore) is always a good baseline to follow. As always, prioritize things that Cargo can't order, such as Gold, Silver, and Uranium.

* Landing on expedition planets/FTLing back to the station can often cause bugs. When landing on a planet, be prepared for the possibility that your shuttle will land inside the dungeon, and be prepared to fight mobs. When FTLing back from a planet, the shuttle can rarely land inside of the station or thousands of tiles away from it, in which case you should Ahelp for assistance.

* When looting dungeons, be sure to consider looting machines in addition to smaller items. RTGs are always useful to have, and most dungeons will feature engineering rooms with everything necessary to equip your shittle with infinite power (RTGs, SMES's, Substations, and APCs). Random shuttle parts, such as thrusters, gravity generators, and gyroscopes can spawn throughout dungeons, giving you a shot at upgrading your ship on the fly.

* Expeditions are currently the (maybe?) only way for Cloning technology to be acquired in a regular round. However, getting cloning set up requires a '''Cloning Pod, Cloning Console Computer, and Medical Scanner''', which can be found on Expeditions as either machine boards or completed machines. You'll also require Biomass cubes, which can be found on Expeditions, or created by grinding up bodies in a '''Biomass Generator''', also found on Expeditions. Getting all of this technology together often requires multiple Expeditions, is extremely luck-based, and requires a significant amount of time. But the bragging rights are immense.
