| Welcome to Engineering: the fortress at the aft (south) end of the station where the Chief Engineer and his goons make sure the singularity gets loose and consumes the entire station. In the rare case that this is NOT what you want to happen, read this guide. | |

Chief Engineer's Office
The personal hidey-hole of the Chief Engineer. Requires CE Office access. Contains the CE's advanced RIG, magboots, the CE's stamp, batteries, some medicine, some tools, and the CE's locker, with the station blueprints inside. People will try to break in to obtain these but also the advanced hardsuit if the CE is not wearing it. Also home to Poly the Chief Engineer's pet parrot and eventually his nest of items he collected while you were away.
The three buttons in this office controls the blast doors used to lock down the entrance to Engineering, Secure Storage and Atmospherics front and side entrances. The office also has a handy Station Alert computer, which you can use to help direct your Station Engineers and Atmospheric Technicians to where they need to be.
Particle Accelerator
Powers the Singularity by shooting accelerated particles at it. The PA can be a very dangerous device, since it can quickly cause the singularity to get out of control and escape the containment if left unsupervised. The PA and the collectors can be sealed off with blast doors using the nearby controls.
Singularity Engine
The Singularity Engine exists just to the south of engineering
Power Storage Room
This room houses both of Engineering's two common hardsuits, a few batteries, door and power control modules, Engineering's oxygen and plasma tank dispenser, a crate which contains extra solar panels and a solar tracking beacon, a terminal for checking the station's APCs, a P.A.C.K.M.A.N.-type portable generator, O2 canister, and three of the station's SMES cells. It is a prime target for antagonists seeking to black out the station.
Engineering Secure Storage
The only button to open the shutters to this room are in the CE's office. It contains spare materials, backup parts for the singularity engine (more can be ordered at cargo), and a large plasma canister. Some people will try to break in here to steal the emitters to open locked crates.
Department Lobby and Break Area
The shared area between Engineering and Atmospherics. Used by both as a common access hall and a break room. While not too exciting, it at least contains a few snacks and some distractions. Engineering Sec Office is housed here.
Escape Pod
In case of an evacuation, the engineering pod is usually the safest one to take over the others, assuming the singularity doesn't threaten you.
