This suit doesn’t seem very strong, but it has pink stripes. That means it’s fast. “Zoom! Zoom! Zoooooooooom!” And everyone will know that I’m a princess. Maybe I should wear my princess dress on the outside…just to be sure. I like this ship. I saw a real space moose down on deck 9. I’ve never seen a space moose before.

This suit itches though. It itches all over. What’s that?

THERE’S A BUG INSIDE MY SUIT! THERE’S A BUG, A BUG, A BUG IS INSIDE MY SUIT! AHHHHHHHHH! HELP! HELP! HELP! [struggling to get the helmet off] A BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUG! [The helmet finally comes off and a massive Dagonian Hissing Cockroach falls to the floor].

Stupid bug. So gross!

Need to see how this interface works, and I don’t want to leave that adorable littler girl Tom Ratchercrank who totally isn’t a space lobster like me – hanging i susspense.

So - @messana, since the items are tradeable, when we see them in the store are there limited quantities available for purchase in that round? I didn’t think so, but wanted to double check.

Thanks for the heads up @messana, fixing now.

Your instincts are correct: shop items are available in unlimited quantity, so long as one has the juice to make the purchase.

However, store items may not be available from round to round depending on the current configuration of the fabricators on the Coleridge.

"Well now isn’t that a question and then some? All shipboard communications are cryptographically signed with the ID of the sender so Kassie naturally assumes those orders are coming from the sending ID.

"I reckon that the quoted orders wouldn’t be recognized due to the leading metadata and simply ignored. Best case, your friend would wind up submitting those edited orders on their own behalf.

“Kudos to your friend for thinking ahead! Most crew members usually don’t start thinking like that until they get few missions under their belt…”

Yup. I went with the only mission I qualified for, and took the upgrade with no downgrade.

[Responding to the loud demands for milk, a Liqui-Vend at the other end of the mess, extrudes 13 cartons of milkish substance.]

Yay! Milk. Thank you, machine!

“Oh, deary-dear. Look at this.”

[Pokes at the exo-suit inventory. A vile hissssssssss leaks out out of an antique AirCan 50™, “The Respiration Enthusiast’s Friend”. Turning away from the stink, spots an Astro-Tux™ Build-All.]

“Oh.”
