Deep Mining on Asteroids

Congratulations on signing on for Aster's Guild deep ressources exploitation, miner, and welcome on board. Settle in and get your bearings, then proceed to the control terminal aboard the Hulk shuttle and select your first landing site! We are looking forward to seeing you in action!

First steps

You just woke up from your cryosleep as an Aster's Guild miner and don't know what do do? Here are some steps to follow to successfully extract your first minerals from those deep space rocks!

• Head to Section III and enter Aster's Guild lobby, on the opposite side of the corridor from the Club.
• Go down to the mining dock by crossing the two double airlocks.
• If the Hulk shuttle is still docked to the ship, get in there! Otherwise, you can ask on Aster's Guild comms channel (:u) when the shuttle will come back and enjoy some beers at the Club (or help your fellow Aster's technicians if you're the serious kind)
• Just after entering the shuttle, grab your voidsuit and an oxygen tank in the room near the entrance. Take the mining scanner as well, you will need it.
• Head further inside the shuttle toward the control room to grab the rest of your gear. You should see a few locked mining lockers. You can open them with your ID card if they have not been claimed yet by another miner. Grab your shotgun, pickaxe, .50 cal slug box and put a few in your pockets for quick reload. Don't forget your mining satchel to store ores.
• Announce on Aster's comms that you are going out in case another miner wants to come with you and so that people know that they have to go looking for your corpse if they don't hear about you in the next hour.
• If you got everything you need, use the control console in the cockpit, select one of the available Asteroid Landing Site then launch the shuttle.
• Oops, I hope you buckled yourself. Ah, don't worry, eating the floor don't hurt that much. Worse awaits you anyway.
