| ===HOW TO BE A GOOD ATMOS TECH===
| |
| [[File:atmos.png]][[File:Atmos_simplified.png]]
| |
|
| |
| '''Two pictures of the atmospheric pipe system. Right one is the simplified version, the yellow circles represent the filters which filter out a certain gas from the Waste In -gasmix. The light yellow circle near the lower middle represents the mixer which mixes two gases into one (N2 and O2 into a breathable air mix).
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| Atmospherics is pretty simple, but the pipe layout makes it slightly confusing for the untrained eye.
| |
| There are 4 major pipe "loops":
| |
| *The '''<span style="color:blue">dark blue pipe loop</span>''' is the distribution loop. It sends air to all the vents on the station and is fed by the cyan and orange loops.
| |
| *The '''<span style="color:cyan">cyan air mix pipe loop</span>''', which is specialized to mix and provide the air mix to the distribution loop, and is used to fill air pumps outside the front door of Atmospherics.
| |
| *The '''<span style="color:red">red/<span style="color:green">green</span></span> pipe loop''', which retrieves the gas in the station via the air scrubbers (red) and passes them through a set of filters (green).
| |
| *The '''<span style="color:yellow">yellow</span> pipe loop''', internal to Atmospherics, which is used for custom gas mixes that can be fed into the canister charging station in the middle of atmospherics, or fed into the mixing tank. It takes outputs from the N2, O2, CO2, Plasma and N2O tank.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| The air breathed by humans on SS13 is made out of oxygen and nitrogen. It is mixed on the south end of Atmospherics. The gasses are pumped through the cyan tubes from their respective tanks ('''N2''', '''O2''') and are mixed in the air tank ('''Air'''). The breathable gas is then pumped through the cyan loop to the north of Atmospherics, where it is then pumped into the blue loop and out to the station for everyone to breathe.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| The filtering loop basically runs the gasses through the filters along the green piping and injects all gasses not filtered into the mixing tank.
| |
|
| |
| The tanks of the station's atmospherics network (unlike in the rest of the station) are in reality rooms filled with very high pressure of the appropriate gas. The output of these rooms are controlled by their respective Supply Control computer, an on/off valve, and an output pump for each loop. Note that '''these rooms can be depleted''', especially if [[Traitor|someone]] makes a hole in a tank's external wall.
| |
|
| |
| To create a custom mix of gas, turn on the output of the supply control computers, open the manual valves, and turn the output of the pump to what you wish it to be. The gas will travel through the orange pipes into the mixing chamber. The gas mix is pumped into the mixing chamber via a pump north of the orange loop. The mix obtained can then be pumped into the distribution and filtering loop or used to fill canisters. Remember to turn off the pump between the yellow and red pipe network or your custom mix will just go into the red waste loop.

| ===ATMOS QUICK SETUP===
| |
|
| |
| Properly initialized, Atmosia can keep the station aired-up through nearly any emergency. Improperly initialized, it's a waste of space at best and an outright fire hazard at worst.
| |
|
| |
| Here's how to do it the right way.
| |
| [[File:AtmosDerp.png|300px|thumb]]
| |
|
| |
| # Go to every <span style="color:red">red circled</span> filter. Make sure they're all on and set to max pressure (4500 kPa), so gas will actually be moved.
| |
| # Replace the <span style="color:green">green circled</span> normal pumps with volume pumps.
| |
| # Go to the <span style="color:blue">blue circled</span> pump. There are '''two schools of thought''':
| |
| ::* '''Old-skool school''' that set it to 315 kPa (high enough that people can't mess with the distribution system, but low enough that it can be drained in decent time to make changes to pipes).
| |
| ::* '''Robust school''' that replace the normal pump with a volume pump and set it to over 9000 kPa, enabling a super-efficient air distribution to where air is needed (can be controlled through vents & air alarm rather than dragging air pumps and canisters around) and making sure that people don't mess with the pipe system. This is a high-risk & high-reward setup since chucklefucks messing with air alarms can now be VERY dangerous. The robust school also changes the Waste In -pump (the red circled next to the blue circled one) with a volume pump, so that wastes are sucked in faster from the station.
| |
| <ol start="3">
| |
| <li> ''(optional)'' Go to the red lockers, get a hard hat, gas mask and everything else that might be of use. Remember that you need both a fire suit and a hard hat to be resistant to weak fires. One will be useless without the other.
| |
| <li> ''(optional)'' Go grab the Fire Axe from the wall mount and hide it somewhere the [[Clown|chucklefucks]] won't get it and go killing. DON'T take it with you and go walking through the hallways trying to look like a badass, you'll be the prime target of any antagonist/griffon who needs an efficient weapon.
| |
| </ol>
| |
| Done correctly, Atmosia should be pumping good air just faster than it's lost, and draining bad air away away as fast as the traitors can set it on fire or alternatively draining good air away as fast as a malf AI can syphon it. You can go kick back in the bar like a boss, and wait for the inevitable minor station damage and cries of "Call the shuttle!" on the radio from folks who don't even know it ain't a big deal.
| |
|
| |
| Just be sure to configure the air alarms around the station to filter N2O, CO2, and Plasma.
| |
| They default to CO2 only, the AI can easily help you with it.
| |
| Congratulations, you are now more competent than 90% of all Atmos techs.

| ===PIPE PROSPECTIN'===
| |
|
| |
| Don't think that Atmospherics is your only place to mess about, nay good sirs and madams. The ENTIRE pipe system is your oyster!
| |
|
| |
| *Officially, Atmospherics has one other official room on the station, a small room in maintenance just north of the [[Fitness Room]] by the [[Courtroom]] and just south of the [[Security Office]]. This room can isolate the Security wings distribution system with its own feed of gas, canister of air mix included within! This room gets used exactly 0% of the time by anyone, but can be used for safe (Extremely deadly) applications for anyone with a canister of safe things (See: Face melting) to be put exclusively in the Security wing of the station.
| |
|
| |
| *The [[Incinerator]] provides a good off-site burn room if you don't want to set atmospherics on fire yourself. Just be careful, all sorts of [[Traitor|rep]][[Changeling|reh]][[Cult|ens]][[Clown|ible]] people like to hang out there.
| |
|
| |
| *The [[Construction Area]] is a oft disused little haven that's just asking for some pipes, it even comes with an Air alarm that controls nothing that you don't build yourself! This place provides a great blank canvas for any sort of atmospheric experimentation outside of Atmosia. However, it's a little far from any distro pipes... Except the vent in [[Tech Storage]]...
| |
|
| |
| *The [[Vacant Office]] is also a prime location for Atmospherics, though there already is a vent system in place as well as plenty of annoying desks to dismantle, it can be a place to practice your pipe wizardry.
| |
|
| |
| *By [[Arrivals]] and also the airlocks leading to the [[Toxins Test Chamber]] in the maintenance tunnels are two large cans of emergency air mix that can be put into the system with the turn of a valve. These have never been used in the history of ever, unless by accident.
| |
|
| |
| Finally, the entirety of the maintenance system itself is a giant playground of pipes. Spend a shift or three with your T-ray on exploring the vast pipe systems. You may even find junction points that you can close off to exclusively flood a department of your choice with a lethal gas! Science always drawing your ire for its constant alarms? Robotics refusing to build you a mech? Botany... Uhh... Throwing tomatoes at you?
| |
|
| |
| Remember, you are the sole reason for the station living. It doesn't take many pipe wrenchings for you to doom the entire station to plasma-y death. So be responsible with your experiments. When in doubt, adminhelp what you're going to do. After all, it's a lot less convenient to Atmospherics it up when you're job banned, so don't make that mistake!! However...

| ===HOW TO BE A TRAITOROUS BASTARD===
| |
| Or: How to get the AI killed; How to call the shuttle as atmos tech.
| |
|
| |
| # Open valves connected to harmful gas you want to add to the station.
| |
| # Set pumps to the distribution loop to maximum pressure output (4500 kPa)
| |
| # Set filters to not filter harmful gasses you want to add to the station OR set the waste in pump to 0 kPa (but leave it on to confuse the crew)
| |
| # Open valve from custom mix chamber
| |
| # Turn on pump leading to distribution loop
| |
| # Wait for vents to slowly kick out your deathgas mix as regular atmos drains out through the inevitable hull breaches. (Alternatively turn off pressure checks on atmos alarms vents)
| |
| # If you need to kill someone for your objective, and you want to be more proactive, the Fire Axe mounted in the wall is surprisingly effective. Just don't leave it lying around, because it's one of only two on the station.
| |
|
| |
| To hurry this process up, you can set the air vents at local control panels to maximum output pressure. Not doing so gives the AI and atmos techs more time to notice what you've done and shut it off before it takes effect.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| A faster process for achieving the same result is to do the following:
| |
|
| |
| # Disconnect, change the direction of, and reconnect the pump that feeds from the air mix to the mix tank in the north-eastern room of atmosia.
| |
| # Open the valves for your deathgas mixture of choice.
| |
| # Power on and max the pressure on every pump in the mix pipes (yellow pipes) from the storage tanks out to the station output (blue pipes).
| |
|
| |
| This simply means that instead of the air mix being put into the mix tank as it normally does, the air mix (which may or may not contain death gasses) is fed into the station output.
| |
|
| |
| Crafty atmos traitors will want to cut cameras, replace pumps with pipes, and use tricky pipe configurations to avoid the AI interfering or the detective trying to fix it.
| |
|
| |
| An extremely fast method that involves a clever use of the waste system is the following:
| |
|
| |
| # Reconfigure the piping to connect the waste system directly into the pure pipes.
| |
| # Find a place with a waste pipe next to a distro pipe, then configure them so that they can united later.
| |
| # Open the valves for your deathgas mixture of choice, the waste piping should now begin to fill with your gases.
| |
| # Set as many air alarams as you can to have every vent at Internal 0.
| |
| # When ready, go back to your distro/waste pipe spot and unite them.
| |
| # Listen to screams over the radio.
| |
|
| |
| Especially crafty atmos traitors will want to make a hole in the station's oxygen and air tanks, venting the entire round's supply of oxygen into space.
