Secrets, Useful tips and Hidden Knowledge
I will post some useful things you probably wont know about - I will mark secrets as spoilers.

> Running the ship at 50% economy with backup power engaged will give many advantages. Overvolting will be impossible and batteries will supplement any demand increases.
> Thanks to the oxygen regulator that kicks in on backup power, the ship can run for over an hour in standby on battery only.
> The fire extinguishers have unlimited fuel, and are faster than scooters in the water, do your best Wall-E impression.
> Overcharge Mode can be Combined with 50% Ecnonomy to gain the benefits of increased engine speed with less over-voltage problems.
> The Brig security door will Open if main power is lost
> The Armory will open automatically if there is flooding inside.
> The Oxygen regulator circuit will activate automatically if you run the ship at 25% voltage. (Standby Mode)

> The glass at the back of the armory is tough but not unbreakable, there is a dark area in the rear ballast where you can hide and try to break in.
> You can break out of the brig by standing on the table and destroying the ceiling, then flood the brig by damaging the floor. You may want to stash a crowbar or tool in the loose vent above the bunk in advance - if you're expecting to get caught.


HIDDEN ITEMS - GOLDEN GEAR
These unique items are for you to discover and award to the crew for bravery, some are well hidden - crew are encouraged to mutiny if the captain hogs all the loot. Be careful as they are not replaceable if lost or eaten by threshers.
