Hangar Technician

---WIP---

The Cargo Technician is the crewmember that is in charge, generally, of handling all cargo-related requests.

Overview
The Cargo Technician has two to three responsibilities: [*]Manage Cargo operations, defined as handling all transactions between Central Command and the Aurora [*]Manage the Disposals Mailing System [*]When needed (such as the lack of a quartermaster), ensure paperwork is properly filled out and filed away

Cargo Operations
The main use of Cargo. As a Cargo Technician, you are expected to handle the Cargo Console to bring materials.

People will come to you and use the external console to place orders. Get the Quartermaster to stamp it (or stamp it with a default stamp yourself), and review it.

Points
The Cargo department does not, obviously, have unlimited resources. The capability of Cargo is quantified in "points". All items have a point cost - from ten for basic civilian items to hundreds for the most expensive items. By default, Central attributes approximately eighty points per hour (or approximately 1 point per eighty seconds) - however it is not the only recourse, as it is a slow method of acquiring points. Central also rewards proper accountability and usage of resources - adding a generous amount of points for every stamped supply manifest shipped back, and for every crate sent (whether they have been returned from an order or made aboard the station - NanoTrasen can never use enough crates).

Of course, NanoTrasen also needs resources - and as such, any spare plasma or diamond sheets that are not used can be sent to Central for a bountiful points reward.

The number of points that Cargo has available is visible at the top of the requisitions console's interface when not in a menu.

Requests
All requests made - filed from the console outside or requested from within - are stored in the Requests section. They must be approved by Cargo staff (ergo you) before being ordered. If a request must be ordered, simply Approve it - and it will be placed in the order queue (provided that Cargo has enough points to order it in the first place). Should a request be pulled - either by lack of necessity, Command orders or other reasons - you are also provided with the option to cancel orders.

Orders
All approved requests are transferred to the Order queue. Accessible from the console - it contains all of the items that will be present in the shuttle. The point cost has already been deduced and as such none of the items are refundable. The menu also presents who approved what crate, and as such it is possible to see if something has been ordered without authorization.

Cargo transfer
The supplies have finally arrived. From there, your duty is to make sure it comes into the right hands. Generally, the following five options are recommended:

[*]Direct delivery by hand to specific department [*]Hand-off by calling whomever made the requisition to Cargo [*]Delivery by Mulebot (if available) [*]Delivery by Cargo Tug [*]Delivery by Mailing System

The latter three points are explained in the Equipment section.

Mailing System
The station is equipped with a very important piece of machinery: the Pneumatic Tube (referred to as Disposals) system. It plays two very important roles - the first one being actual disposals of trash, by sending all garbage for sorting and then transferring the materials to the sorting and processing center, where they are ground up for materials. The second is, simply, mailing - all gates are equipped with a sensor system (explained in Equipment).

As a Cargo Technician, it is one of your duties to triage the trash - to make sure nothing that shouldn't be there is, such as weapons, medication or organic materials (be sure to tell Command to reprimand the Geneticist if they actually dispose of their test subjects). And sometimes, people will come to you for secure delivery - where hand delivery is not possible or advisable due to time constraints, but while also requiring the safety of having something delivered in a restricted location.

Equipment
As a technician, you have a wide array of tools to help you help the station beyond the cargo console.

Autolathe
Sometimes, crewmembers will need simpler items that cannot be ordered - such as buckets, tools or beanbag shells for the bartender. The Autolathe covers these items
