[I’m going to pay 25 juice to critter and daneel for repairs, and 50 to rkt88edmo for repairs, as they have a lot of need. I plan to buy the rad shielding and flywheel, to improve my DEF without sacrificing EVA (although, EVA may not matter in my mission choice -it might, that’s not terribly clear). So perhaps skipping the flywheel and getting the targeting algorithm instead, and taking mission one would be my best use.

I have 303. Donations of 100, and personal repairs of 75 would cost 160, rad shielding and the targeting algorithm would total 100, leaving me with 43, enough for the flywheel and a drink or two, if we all survive. Can someone check my math, and comment on whether that would be my most effective (and somewhat complex) course of action?]

Whoops! ‘Targeting_Algorithm’ is correct. I had mistakenly entered it as ‘Tracking_Algorithm’ in the config file. That specific order is correct and on file as of this moment. My bad, @newliminted

You are a generous meat-sack, T.Rump. I shall remove your name from the list.

Cacti are not renowned for their counting. Hmm. I believe I now have 75Ʉ + 6Ʉ + 25Ʉ (106Ʉ?), so I can improve my chances of avoiding this swarm

Your orange skin is quite a wonder compared to the normal humanoids I’ve run across in space, but your generosity is unbounded. Thank you @newliminted Senor Rump, I am in your debt! I’m gonna crawl into my bunk now and start studying the XactoFabLabSuperSerger man pages, this exosuit is so dinged up I may end up running these ship board pew pew guns nekkid rather than wear my suit in its abominable current state.

That’s a check order, not a submit order. Shouldn’t kassandra give a different response?

I believe the AI no longer parses checks. Salvagers strictly cash.

Er, huh? Did I say something out loud!? oh dear me, again… I’ve really got to find my meds . It’s my, my colloquial tail, you know, I just didn’t want to be so crude as to say ASS . Of course totally normal space humans don’t have tails.

Wow, just wow, Mr Rump, that’s so kind of you unlike that moose

I’m tired of getting popped by those eels, the natural order is I should be nibbling on them. I’d like to upgrade my targeting algorithm and if someone would spot me the 9U I’d offer 12 if I make it back.

Thanks for that! It’ll go great with my clubbin’ gear.

A note to the masses: I may have some juice left to loan out after I pay for some upgrades and my mission fees (which mission? beats me.)… Any requests?

M. Ornatus is correct - Kassandra just looks for an @mention now and assumes that it’s an order submission.

You know, I used to spend a lot of time on Mars, alone, thinking about systems in the world, and how banking could use a real overhaul. Anyone else interested in starting something up? We could do some real good with our doctorates. For glory.

Just remember, those orders won’t stand once you put in mission orders, it is last in first out, not instant or cumulative when Kassie processes.
