| Welcome to Engineering: the fortress at the starboard (east) end of the station where the Chief Engineer and his goons make sure the Supermatter blows up part of the station and leaves everyone powerless. In the rare case that this is NOT what you want to happen, read this guide. | |
| Obvious exits | Hallway north, maintenance west, singularity south, space and the AI Satellite southeast |
| Purpose | Powers the station, holds equipment to repair inevitable damage to the station |
| Access level | Engineering for main area, Power Equipment for the Particle Accelerator and Power Storage areas, CE Private for his office |
| Noteworthy contents | Two Engineering MODsuits, power control modules, oxygen and plasma tank dispenser, a P.A.C.K.M.A.N.-type portable generator and three station's main SMES cells |

Facilities
Engineering Department has rooms all around the station.
These facilities are located inside the Engineering-wing:
- Chief Engineer's Office
- SMES Room
- Power Storage Room
- Engineering Secure Storage
- Department Lobby and Break Area
- Engineering Security Post
- Supermatter Engine
- Escape Pod
- AI Satellite Access
- Gravity Generator
These facilities are located somewhere else:
- Atmospherics
- Construction Area
- Electrical Maintenance
- Solars
- Technical Storage
- Telecommunications
- Vacant Office
Supermatter
The main engine of the station. Can be dangerous as it is able to blow up a large part of it if mishandled. The Supermatter chamber can be sealed off with shutters using the nearby controls to help against radiation from the active Supermatter.
SMES Room
Used to house the Gravity Generator, then housed nothing, and now is the location of the three SMES cells that provide power to the station. This room is a prime target of antagonists looking to black out the station, so check every once in a while to make sure it is not a hole in space.
Power Storage Room
This room houses various equipment and tools for engineers. Found here:
- Two Engineering MODsuits
- A Tank Dispenser with 10 oxygen and plasma tanks
- A few batteries
- Airlock and power control modules
- Some metal, metal rods, and glass
- Earmuffs
- Insulated gloves
- A crate that contains extra solar panels and a solar tracking beacon
- A water tank
- A fuel tank
- An O2 canister
- Tools
- Cable coils
- A box of replacement lights
- A PACMAN portable generator
Engineering Secure Storage
The only button to open the shutters to this room is in the CE's office. It contains spare materials, some parts to contain a singularity - should you have some reason to create one - and a plasma canister. Some people will try to break in here to steal the emitters to open locked crates.
Has:
- A crate with spare construction materials and Solid Plasma
- A Plasma Canister
- Two Anti-Breach Shielding Projector
- Four Emitters
- Four Field Generators
- A fire-safety closet
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. The Engineering Security Post is housed here.
Escape Pod
In case of an evacuation, the engineering pod is usually the safest pod to take, assuming the singularity doesn't threaten you.
