OOC:
As a recommendation and for better enjoyment, I do encourage all players to discuss among yourselves what you think is happening, formulate ideas and discuss in general stuff. It helps me tremendously in the creative department.
>>1106158
OOC:
GIVE ME THE MISSION KAPITAN
My immediate thought is that either we're some kind of machine, or interacting with some relatively large craft. Anything that requires a reactor is pretty big.
>>1106167

Also a heuristic program was initiated after skipping diag's. My bet is A.I.

>>1106197
Well that's bad. We have a defunct order. Hm.
Let's find find people. People should fix that, if they're the right people.
Search around the inside for any protrusions or indents of any kind, if there's a place to push or grab from the inside then that's what we should try.
>>1106220
>>1106197
And this too.
Also it's interesting that (3)Protect all human wards has no operation clause with directive one, or directive two.

let's see if we're permitted to escape this box.
>>1106197
Can we erase all of the Factory Standards, since it's become corrupted? I vote to attempt to delete and/or corrupt (through hardware, since I'd imagine the soft/firmware would attempt to prevent this whenever possible) all of the rules into oblivion so that we can have free will.
>>1106252
Might be worth a shot. A corrupt directive should at the very least be overwritten.
Don't want it causing problems later.
>>1106206
>Memory Modules
>>1106262
I dunno... If the AI has corrupted enough (and it's obviously corrupted quite a bit if the factory standard rule(s) has/have managed to become corrupted), then it's possible it could, as stated above, at the very least attempt to entirely erase the corrupted rule. That one's already no longer intact.
>>1106252
that seems unwise. If we clean out default directives then we might run risk of violating them and that sounds like violation of those directives.
Plus unless factory designers were fucking retarded, they would make damn sure that our brain is gonna fry before we reprogram ourselves at such fundamental level.

Let's see if there is a way to transfer some juice from our reactor
>>1106390
>>1106391
>>1106398
First your initialize your systems as you leave the stasis mode then you push the shipping container aperture now that the security bolts have been retracted. It opens with a hiss as the hermetic seal is broken. Then you step out of and survey your surroundings, Its a small room, possibly 20x20x20 it contains another shipping container, but it is open and empty.
It reads as: Milspec S-9035-107 Security and Police model

>Get power cells from shipping container.
Probably won't be much, but it's something.
>>1106440
This and scavenge our box for batteries
>>1106454
This. See if we can get power cell from the other container as well. Although I worry they will have less power than what we'll expend on removing them.
And unless there's some sort of compatible data port we could stick our thing into, I guess it's time to leave the room.
>>1106454
Smart! Additionally, see if we can scavenge any wires which connect to ourselves, so that we could hopefully find the components necessary for a solar panel in the future. If any components which would be useful for that are located within the shipping container aperture or within the room, then please gather those as well. Perhaps a bag can be found, or some container could be crafted in order to carry things? If there was a hermetic seal, then there's probably silicone, or something similarly flexible, which could make for a useful sling in order to help us carry things.

QUERY: WHAT IS DIRECTIVE 4?
>>1106440
It reads: Milspec P-3065-209 Infiltration and Termination model
>>1106442
>>1106454
You open the power systems for the boxes they work on a simple radioactive decay system, meant to be operational for over a century, upper limit not in database. However this system in incompatible, you could try and recharge but it would be ill advised. the time it would take to load 1% power would require 5% power consumption, this is not sound logic. Suggestion, find alternate power.
Around the room there are various consoles and systems, but they all lack power, no em fields present in the current room, lights are out, no other shipping containers, no human bodies present. Signs are in English. English corpus: [LAODED].......

Composition.....
You knock on the door to get a soundbyte, the resonance frequency matches Titanium grade A with a 97% probability. Your mission systems sigh audibly at this. It is impossible to use physical force on such a material and expect any meaningful results, perhaps your heuristic systems can come up with a better idea as to how to engage this particular task. Or another plan altogether.

>>1106693
It points to the only door in the room, as per operational manual, this room when connected to a proper space faring vehicle can be used as an emergency airlock.
wait the door might take the same battery as the boxes.
>>1106731
Universal Power port found, extract battery system from shipping container and power door systems? [Y|N]
>>1106752
>>1106763
You go ahead and take the battery systems from the shipping container and wire it to the door control panel. Once its capacitors are charged, you repeat the process with the power door systems.
After some five minutes of fidgeting the door opens with a hiss, it seems the outside is some sort of cavern or cave. You ask your heuristic systems to tell you the next current appropiate action.

>>1106884
explore further
search for other human made structures where we could find a power source
>>1106908
you know what we didn't do yet? analize if there is breathable air.
I guess that judging by the layout we are still on earth but everthing seems abandoned for some reason, including us
>>1107096
So should we analyze the air for its compounds?
Also, do we know what fuels our reactor uses?
>>1107203
If we are capable it wouldn't hurt I guess.
Can we access memories from before the box or is this the first time we are active?

You follow the human while being sneaky. You see him get close to a large crystal structure and pull out a knife. He seems to be removing it from the onyx formation. This process takes a few minutes but he repeats its a few times over while filling up a bag then starts to head over to another chamber. You again follow, the process repeats itself and you see the human heading for an exit.
