The other OS that exists in SS13. Different from DWAINE, and easier to use, but still not great.


Important Programs

Secmate

View and Edit Criminal Records. Really only useful if you want Beepsky to ruin someone's day. To send Beepsky on the hunt, insert a Security ID and type the following commands: Login, run secmate, record. A list of records will appear. Locate your target's record, and then type "record (the number next to his record". Then type "field criminal_status arrest". Here is where you can also change the crew manifest listing for the AI.

EngineMaster

Automatic startup sequence for the Singularity Engine. To start the engine, after correctly positioning and securing the components, insert an Engineer ID and type the following commands: Login, run enginemaster, startup. If this fails, ensure that the engine is set up correctly and type: Rescan, startup.

COMMaster

For calling and recalling the Emergency shuttle. To call the shuttle, insert a Head ID and type the following commands:

  • Login,
  • ComMaster
  • link
  • call

To recall, do the same but replace "call" with "recall". If it didn't work, then the computer's connection to the comm dish has likely been severed. Recalling will also fail if the shuttle is less than 5 minutes away. If the first dish is disconnected, you can try to transmit using the other dish by linking up to it. For more detail, including the staggering number of ways this simple process can go wrong, please refer to Calling the Escape Shuttle.


Useful functions

General

Some useful functions are:

cd- Change directory. Same as DWAINE. '/' is the root, then the name of the folder.

del- For the more nefarious, you can delete COMMaster, EngineMaster, or SecMate or another file or log, but not ThinkDOS itself.
