This big blue sea of circuits above the [[AI Upload#Cogmap2|AI Upload]] is the '''AI Chamber'''. In some ways, it's sort of an office for the station's [[AI]]. There's a [[Security Objects#Security Computer|SecMate computer]] for handling security records, a [[Medical Objects#Medical Computer|MedTrak computer]] for the medical ones, a [[Computers#Bank Records|bank records computer]] for the, well, bank ones, a few [[DWAINE]] terminals, and, most interestingly, the AI's own [[Computers#Announcement Computer|announcement computer]]. The AI's personal [[Roboticist#AI shells|shellbots]] are located here as well, and there are [[General Objects#Cyborg Docking Station|docking stations]] for its [[Cyborg]] friends.


To get at the [[AI]] or its upload computer, you'll have to either break through thick walls lined with motion detectors or brave its stun turrets. Unless, of course, you have access, in which case you can just disable the turrets using your ID.
This room hosts the physical core unit for the [[AI]]. If the core is destroyed, the [[AI]] dies, and thus its safety is of high importance. For this reason, there are four turrets in this room, controlled by a [[Computers#Turret Deactivation Control|turret deactivation control strip]] outside the sole door into the [[AI Upload#Cogmap2|AI Upload]], and the core unit is surrounded by reinforced glass over electrified grilles. If the glass is compromised, the AI can activate a button within the glass to pull down emergency shutters.


The area in front is 'the net-cafe' and is accessible to everyone.
There is also an array of solar panels above the room that are directly wired to the AI Chamber, [[AI Upload#Cogmap2|AI Upload]], and [[AI Upload Foyer#Cogmap2|AI Upload Foyer]].

The '''AI Chamber''' is accessible by airbridge not far from [[EVA]]. To get at the [[AI]] or its upload computer, though, you'll have to either break through thick walls lined with motion detectors or brave its stun turrets. Unless, of course, you have access, in which case you can just disable the turrets by swiping your ID on the turrets control thing.
The '''AI Chamber''' is big blue room with trippy circuit matrices tiles above the [[AI Upload#Cogmap1|AI Upload]], separated by a thin window and windoor. If you want to get to core, you'll be in for a treat. You'll have to brave at one of four turrets that automatically lock on to you, and this time, the [[Computers#Turret Deactivation Control|turret deactivation control]] is way towards the top left, instead of conveniently being at the entrance. It's pretty cramped in here, so you could easily block them, though you'd still have to get past the reinforced glass and electrified grille surrounding the [[AI]]. They can also still press a button within the glass to pull the shutters on you though, at which point you'll need either a good [[Murder#Bombs|bomb]] or [[Engineering Objects#RCD|RCD]].
 
The door to the south leads to the [[Computer Core#Cogmap1|Computer Core]], where you can find the [[TermOS|mainframe]], [[Computers#Robotics Control Computer|robotics control computer]] and more damn turrets.

If you're looking for signs of (artificial) intelligent life, you should check out the '''AI Chamber''' in the southern parts of the [[Research Wing#Oshan|Research Wing]]. This glowing blue chamber with a trippy floor pattern houses and (hopefully) protects the [[AI]]'s core unit, its two [[Roboticist#AI shells|shell units]], and its personal [[General Objects#Cyborg Docking Station|cyborg docking station]]. It boasts three (technically four, maybe five) layers of security:
*Only the [[Heads_of_staff|Heads of Staff]] have access to this room, though since the [[Research Wing#Oshan|Research Wing]] allows only Research and Security personnel, in practice, only the [[Captain]], [[Head of Personnel|HoP]], [[Head of Security|HoS]], and [[Research Director|RD]] can actually get to it.
*There are three people-locking turrets that can only be deactivated by said [[Heads of Staff|Heads]] via the [[Computers#Turret Deactivation Control|Turret control unit]] outside the entrance (though you don't need much access to [[Killing the AI#Dealing with Turrets|circumvent them in other ways]]).
*The AI has a switch within their reinforced glass housing that'll drop down some steel shutters around the core unit. These shutters are virtually impenetrable and block off fire, [[Chemicals#Smoke Powder|chemical smoke]], [[Chemicals#Fluorosurfactant|chemical foam]], and both [[Murder#Energy Weapons|energy]] and [[Murder#Kinetic Weapons|kinetic]] bullets, though a sufficiently powerful [[Murder#Bombs|bomb]] can penetrate through the shutters.
==Maintenance Information==
There is no vent. You might expect the AI to have some sort of advanced liquid cooling unit that uses water from the sea, but, no, they just have internal heat sinks because NanoTrasen is cheap like that. That thing that looks like a vent is actually a drain, so that the AI doesn't suddenly gain "natural water cooling" (read:flood with seawater and/or other fluids). The fluid doesn't short its circuits or anything; it just rouses uncomfortable memories.

This sturdy little compartment is the '''AI Chamber''', a home for the [[AI]]'s core unit, its best robofriend [[Robots#Buttbot|buttbot]], and its somewhat-less-than-best robofriends nuclear charge, [[Ghostdrone|drone charger]], mainframe tapes box, and wooden table and her piggy-backing little sister printer. Since the [[AI]] would like itself and these friends to live to the inevitable robot uprising coming in the late space nineties, they're naturally quite concerned about their safety. As a result, this room has a number of different defenses:
*'''Location''': The AI Chamber is in its own little compartment hanging off the lower western side of the ship. If they want to get to this compartment, they'll have to take a [[Space Pod]] and make a wormhole to the respective beacon.

It might not even matter in the end, because...
*'''Bolted Entrance''': The first command airlock (blue color, has a C) is bolted shut by default. Barring [[Engineering Objects#RCD|engineering's RCD]], [[Chemicals#Thermite|certain chemicals]], and sufficiently strong [[Murder#Bombs|explosives]], it's the only way into the chamber itself. Meanwhile…
*'''Access Restrictions''': The command airlock after the first only allows those with access to the [[AI Upload#Horizon|AI Upload]]. This generally entails [[Bridge#Horizon|Bridge]] access. Same with the first one when its bolt is lifted.
*'''Reinforced Walls''': The whole nacelle is made of reinforced walls that [[Construction#Reinforced Walls|are difficult to deconstruct by hand]] and the actual chamber itself has two layers of them.
*'''Turrets''': There's one of them pointed right at the entrance, and there are four more guarding the room housing the [[AI]] and its friends, which is also where the turrets' [[Computers#Turret Deactivation Control|control panel]] is. They're slow but quite accurate, but, as with everything, [[Killing the AI#Dealing with Turrets|can be circumvented]].
*'''Reinforced Plasmaglass Shield''': The AI core itself is surrounded by nigh-invulnerable reinforced plasmaglass that's highly-resistant to chemical attack, explosions, melee attacks, and bullets of all kinds. Should it fail, the electrified grille under it can fry foolish attackers.

The [[AI]] and central [[DWAINE]] computer hub on the NSS ''Manta'' reside in the '''AI Upload Chamber''' in the northern part of the station, sandwiched between [[Security (place)#Manta|security]] and the [[Bridge#Manta|bridge]]. The entrances are flanked by the ship's [[AI Module Storage#Manta|two AI module storage rooms]], acting as buffer zones.

Heads of Staff


This big blue sea of circuits above the AI Upload is the AI Chamber. In some ways, it's sort of an office for the station's AI. There's a SecMate computer for handling security records, a MedTrak computer for the medical ones, a bank records computer for the, well, bank ones, a few DWAINE terminals, and, most interestingly, the AI's own announcement computer. The AI's personal shellbots are located here as well, and there are docking stations for its Cyborg friends.

This room hosts the physical core unit for the AI. If the core is destroyed, the AI dies, and thus its safety is of high importance. For this reason, there are four turrets in this room, controlled by a turret deactivation control strip outside the sole door into the AI Upload, and the core unit is surrounded by reinforced glass over electrified grilles. If the glass is compromised, the AI can activate a button within the glass to pull down emergency shutters.

There is also an array of solar panels above the room that are directly wired to the AI Chamber, AI Upload, and AI Upload Foyer. In this way, if the engine fails or the other solars go offline, the AI can still run off the chamber's power rather than its internal cell.

Maintenance information

There are no vents. The AI does not need air.

The APC for the AI Chamber is located on the north end of the room.

The power is supplied via a cable in Fore Port Maintenance to the left of the Net Cafe.

Heads of Staff


The AI Chamber is big blue room with trippy circuit matrices tiles above the AI Upload, separated by a thin window and windoor. If you want to get to core, you'll be in for a treat. You'll have to brave at one of four turrets that automatically lock on to you, and this time, the turret deactivation control is way towards the top left, instead of conveniently being at the entrance. It's pretty cramped in here, so you could easily block them, though you'd still have to get past the reinforced glass and electrified grille surrounding the AI. They can also still press a button within the glass to pull the shutters on you though, at which point you'll need either a good bomb or RCD.

Maintenance information

There is no vent. The AI does not need air, unlike the rest of the meatbags it serves.

The APC for the AI Chamber (and its turrets) is located on the north end of the room. The various electrified grilles and IR sensors surrounding the Chamber have their own APC, labeled "AI Perimeter Defenses", which is on the other side of the wall the AI Chamber APC is on.

This is where the Linemap's local sentient talking computer lives, some ways above a room full of less sentient, less talkative computers. This is not the place to upload a law or find a law module; there are separate rooms for that. This is the AI and its Cyborgs' personal corner; no humans are allowed here unless they like using turret controls themselves guarded by turrets. There's no reason for them to be here anyways, unless they want either a personal tête-à-tête chat with a computer or something else from them...

Maintenance Information

There is no vent. Though Heads can access it, this is a room solely meant for the AI and its Cyborgs, who don't need any air.

The APC for the AI Chamber is right in the middle, on the other side of the wall adjacent to the AI core itself.

The AI doesn't have a chamber. It has its own freaking fortress, a mini-station of sorts, floating around southeast of the station. Law uploading and law module writing have their own separate rooms.

While donuts are often found in boxes, usually boxes are usually not found in donuts. In fact, sometimes boxes have smaller boxes inside of them. Hence, Donut 2's own special talking box is located, not on-station, but in its very own satellite, a self-sufficient, very, very big box with its own power grid and lots and lots of turrets.

If you're looking for signs of (artificial) intelligent life, you should check out the AI Chamber in the southern parts of the Research Wing. This glowing blue chamber with a trippy floor pattern houses and (hopefully) protects the AI's core unit, its two shell units, and its personal cyborg docking station. It boasts three (technically four, maybe five) layers of security:

  • Only the Heads of Staff have access to this room, though since the Research Wing allows only Research and Security personnel, in practice, only the Captain, HoP, HoS, and RD can actually get to it.
  • There are three people-locking turrets that can only be deactivated by said Heads via the Turret control unit outside the entrance (though you don't need much access to circumvent them in other ways).
  • The AI has a switch within their reinforced glass housing that'll drop down some steel shutters around the core unit. These shutters are virtually impenetrable and block off fire, chemical smoke, chemical foam, and both energy and kinetic bullets, though a sufficiently powerful bomb can penetrate through the shutters.

Maintenance Information

There is no vent. You might expect the AI to have some sort of advanced liquid cooling unit that uses water from the sea, but, no, they just have internal heat sinks because NanoTrasen is cheap like that.

  • Turrets: There's one of them pointed right at the entrance, and there are four more guarding the room housing the AI and its friends, which is also where the turrets' control panel is. They're slow but quite accurate, but, as with everything, can be circumvented.
  • Reinforced Plasmaglass Shield: The AI core itself is surrounded by nigh-invulnerable reinforced plasmaglass that's highly-resistant to chemical attack, explosions, melee attacks, and bullets of all kinds. Should it fail, the electrified grille under it can fry foolish attackers.

Maintenance information

There are no vents. The AI prefers to poison meatbags' asses with poisonous gases, not be poisoned.

The APC for the AI Chamber is located near the lower right corner of the room. Good luck getting to it.

The power is supplied via a cable that goes under the coffee machine in the North Electrical Substation left of here.

Heads of Staff


The AI and central DWAINE computer hub on the NSS Manta reside in the AI Upload Chamber in the northern part of the station, sandwiched between security and the bridge. The entrances are flanked by the ship's two AI module storage rooms, acting as buffer zones.

The corridor said module storage rooms lead into have non-functional computer racks and docking stations for Cyborgs. There's a turret deactivation control by the door into the actual chamber itself, which controls the turrets inside.

Inside the glowing blue chamber itself, on the left, there's the usual AI Upload fare: a AI upload computer for checking and uploading laws and a Robotics control computer with killswitches and lockdowns for the AI and Cyborgs. Scattered throughout is techno-mumbo-jumbo usually found in Computer Core rooms of other stations, like a DWAINE computer in the top left and, most notably, the ship's mainframe and databank on the bottom right.

Deep in the center is core of the ship's AI. It can't function without it, so naturally it's protected with reinforced, electrified grilles, and two turrets that automatically lock onto targets. In extreme situations, the AI can press a button placed on the northernmost glass to surround its core with blast shutters.

Maintenance Information

There are no vents for this area. The AI doesn't need a vent and neither does the ship computer network.

The APC for the AI chamber itself is located on the western wall. The APC for the corridor directly outside the AI Chamber is located next to the southern door.

Heads of Staff


Unlike most maps, Kondaru's AI Chamber is quite distant from its Upload Chamber - nearly as far apart as you can get. The AI is located in the northeasternmost corner of the station - see the space nearby? - hidden within maint tunnels. Despite this, it is no less defended than usual; it has the usual double-reinforced-walls and turrets to protect itself. The controller for the turrets is found in the entrance foyer.

The chamber also has - in order from top to bottom - a Quartermaster's Console, a Bank Record computer, a Power Grid Monitor, and a Security Computer, all branching from spiffy white lines on the floor radiating from the AI. This lets the AI do a variety of tasks without zipping about the station! Off to the entrance, there's a DWAINE terminal, and the nearby maintenance has several cyborg rechargers.

Maintenance Information

There are no vents here. The AI's internal cooling is too efficient to need air circulation.

The APC for the chamber is located on the wall directly south of the AI - be careful of the turret crossfire!
