	'''Augmentations''' and '''Cruciforms''' are incompatible with one another. Make sure you do not have both equipped on your character at round start. A cruciform means your character is a part of the Neotheology religion, and can be revived if killed during the round. Without a cruciform, death is final unless somebody makes you into a cyborg. You can respawn after 30 minutes(10 minutes if your body is put in the morgue) with a different character.		'''Augmentations''' and '''Cruciforms''' are incompatible with one another.

	When choosing Augmentations, you can choose prosthetic limbs, eyes, and even body parts. But be aware of their difficulties! For example, a synthetic heart can be stopped by an EMP grenade effectively killing you and damaged robotic limbs may cause you pain and movement difficulty unless you get them fixed. If you do not mind the difficulties, your robotic limbs can be upgraded to include things such as blades and multi tools that are job specific and benefit surgery or crafting.

		+	:On the right side of the screen you can see the following:
−	:On the right side of the screen you can see oxygen and pressure level, toxins, extreme temperatures, your character's body temperature, health condition (in general) and [[Sanity_ErisEn\|sanity level]]. The four small unlabeled buttons are "Resist", "Pull", "Throw" and "Drop". By clicking Resist you can remove your handcuffs, for example, but it takes time and you must stay still. Pull is responsible for things that you can drag — by clicking on this button you will let go. The next two buttons are responsible for things that you can hold in your hands.

		+	*Internals - Whether or not you are using internal oxygen tank with mask or not; Green is on, Gray is off.
⚫	:Below those buttons you can see a ~~"puppet"~~, which is ~~usable~~ for choosing an interactable zone on a body (e.g. if you want to bandage your hand — aim on it, and use the bandage on yourself by clicking at your character sprite). ~~Near~~ the ~~puppet~~ is a walk/run button, and ~~one~~ of the most important ~~parts~~ ~~of the user~~ ~~interface~~ — ~~intents~~. Help, Disarm, Grab and Harm buttons define how you will interact with the environment. On HELP intent, you can help people up, hug them, and move through other people with HELP intent. On DISARM intent, you can disarm people and shove them down. GRAB lets you grab people, and HARM lets you punch/beat them.
		+
		+	*Air Pressure (KpA) - The pressure level of the room around you; If it is blinking you're in a high pressure zone such as space. You will not survive that.
		+
		+	*Oxygen (O2) - Your oxygen intake, if it is blinking you are having trouble breathing. You will not survive that.
		+
		+	*Toxin - Whether or not you are near a toxic area or are breathing in toxic air. You will not survive that.
		+
		+	*Fire - Unless you are blind, it will blink when you are on fire letting you know you are, on fire.
		+
		+	*Sanity - Your Sanity level, Closed eye is good, opened eye is bad. See the [[Sanity_ErisEn\|sanity page]] for more information on how to prevent loss of sanity.
		+
		+	*Health - Anything other than gray will tell you are injured, light green are minor injuries, red are major injuries, and blinking skull means you are near death.
		+
		+	*Temperature - Your body temp. If it gets too hot you could start getting organ damage or pass out in pain. When you are on fire, your body temp will rise.
		+
		+	*NSA Threshold - Intaking too much of multiple drugs could lead to this maxing out and causing issues with your mental state.
		+
		+	*Hunger - Manage your hunger well, green with full bar means you are well fed. The lower the hunger the slower you are.
		+
		+	;Below these are six labelled buttons;
		+
		+	*Pull - Click on this button and then on another object to begin pulling it. Click again to stop pulling.
		+
		+	*Look up - Click this button to look up, used to assist you in climbing or just looking up.
		+
		+	*Throw - With an item in your hand, click this button and then away from you to throw whatever is in your hand.
		+
		+	*Resist - Click this button when someone grabs you to try and resist them and run away, also used to escape handcuffs.
		+
		+	*Rest - Used to rest or lie down. Can help you take cover if you are being shot at and are behind a low wall or flipped table.
		+
		+	*Drop - Used to drop whatever item is in your hand.
		+
		+
		+
		⚫	:Below those buttons you can see a figure, which is used for choosing an interactable zone on a body (e.g. if you want to bandage your hand — aim on it, and use the bandage on yourself by clicking at your character sprite). To the left of the figure is the walk/run button, and to the left of that button are the most important buttons for actions — Intents. Help, Disarm, Grab and Harm buttons define how you will interact with the environment. On HELP intent, you can help people up, hug them, and move through other people with HELP intent. On DISARM intent, you can disarm people and shove them down. GRAB lets you grab people, and HARM lets you punch/beat them.
		+
		+	:To the left of the intent buttons is the craft menu button, when you want to craft something instead of clicking on the materials in hand, you can click this button to find out what materials you will need before finding them.
