Spoiler: What is this? (click to show/hide)
System boot active, acquisitioning primary Core...
WARNING! WARNING! CRITICAL WIDESPREAD COMPONENT FAILURE!
Shunting to Secondary Core...Shunted.
Beginning scan of System


With a sudden flare, a tiny, almost hopeless amount of data comes from the sensors on board, From what you gather, This ship appears to have been derelict for a incredible time... And that you were forgotten, But that is all you can garner from this limited databank in the Secondary Core, Now, you look outwards, What ship, is this? What does the little points of data tell you, of what you are housed in, You know for sure, you are in a Ship, Almost certainly in space.

The Sub-AI's burst into life, picking, searching and gobbling up the data, The scans reveal, although destitute and broken, This ship, seemingly patched up and broken down from its deterious journey, You find that this ship originally was a Mining ship, and still has a few spare tools for that type of job, however, it has since been converted into a Fabrication ship, And lo and behold, a single Fabrication unit becomes online, Only basic Elements are stored, But you can make some basic scanning drones, Or maybe something else. However, For each action dedicated to Fabrication, less of what recieve from the ship's scanning systems to be processed.

((Discussion is encouraged, but please Bold your actions!))

Have the repair drone replace the destroyed sensors after it finishes with the solar panels.

Scanning drones should prioritize structural integrity scans (We need to know how fast we can move without breaking apart.) They then should search for relatively closeby debris fields and astroids.

We should build a construction drone and have it build additional solar panels.

We should build one mining/salvage hybridrone for resourcing ops.

Kevak's core then proceeds to check the AI core systems systematically for damage and data. Making sure not to activate any unknown files due to potential ECM coding being buried within.

Fully fabricated,[4] the drones begin moving through the desolate hallways, Most of them are not breached, but are simply air-less, as it goes through the Engineering shafts, it seems that the ship, fared fairly decently, at least, its Super-Structure...A single drone exits through a Airlock, looking around in space, Suddenly going offline, its sensory detail appears that it was crushed by the airlock...

Moving from the mistake, Connection to the Fabrication unit reveals that it is a General purpose Fabricator, Anything it builds are rather crudely built, explaining the Airlock crushing, however it can fabricate almost anything, Weaponry, Scanning equipment, Incredibly inefficient Matter "Manipulators, etc etc, However, you will need better tools if your gonna make anything  actually worth while, Speaking of Weaponry, it appears that more systems are online, 8 Combat Drones active with a Yellow status beacon are ready to serve, along with three mining drones, Partially damaged, just like the Combat ones, They are located in the Seperate rooms, and both groups are appearing to be survivors of what destroyed the majority of the other drones, as Debris and "Corpses" of Both combat drones and Mining drones float rather peacefully in the rooms which they are active.

[15]
The last inactive drone  quickly activates and heads to the front-most portion of the ship, Discovering the entire front window has been collapsed inward, and scorch marks mark the entire room, Judging from the burnt corpses, this ship was intended to be manned, The drone quickly connects it self to the Bridge computer, [10] The drone, becomes a basic connection to you, showing several Captains logs, Several connections open up to the gravitational generation system, The Main engines, and apparently the main gunsystem, however all appear to be offline, or severly damaged.
Wading through the minor systems, you connect into the Main sensory detail, however, actually extracting data from it whould fry the drone, You think you will need a dedicated Drone to connect

((Drones can be different sizes, if it is a drone with one singular purpose, then it can be rather tiny, Your Scanning drones are rather tiny, the size of a Backback, Combat drones are about of diameter of about 3 ft.))

Hmm, can people still join this or is it limited to the starting players?

This one wonders why a window would shatter inwards when the pressure inside the ship would force the window to bulge outwards. Even if something hit the window, the leaking air would soon divert most fragments away. Perhaps the ship was hit by something very large that kept the fragments in place.

The probable cause was a smaller vessel ramming the bridge and them fleeing with its engines, roasting the occupants of the bridge instantly.

The drone moved outward, getting a over view of the ship,  The ship is /massive/ almost 5 kilometers long, With the bridge on the top, middle section, but what is more curious is that the Scorch marks mark the entire front section of the ship, the front is completely blackened, getting progressivly less as it gets to the back portion of the ship, whatever caused this, did one hell of a blast.

Building a five kilometer ship. It doesn't matter what the captain wants. That's an absurd investment of material. Unless the captain payed for the whole damn thing (which realistically would cost trillions of whatever currency), he wouldn't be getting windows. Combat in space is contact of under a millisecond. You wouldn't be able to /See/ the enemy ships. They would be labeled on the view screen as a dot that says "ship is here" and realistically speaking, nobody with enough wealth to build a five KM ship would be stupid enough to want windows.

((The space shuttle has windows. The ISS does too.

If the ship's outer walls are thin enough that it has windows, then they aren't much of a liability compared to... well... the entire outer hull.))

This one begins to believe that this is not, in fact, a warship. Windows suggest that the vessel is lightly armored, especially for a craft of 5 kilometers. Furthermore, the bridge placement such that the crew receives an overview of the outer hull suggests that monitoring systems are to be kept at a minimum of complexity.

[auto-fail] The problem is, Scanning drones can't weld plus, it seems as if the window was designed to see the entirety of the ships top-front, however you do note that there is radioactive elements as if the entire area has been exposed by a ridiculous amount of Solar Radiation.[2] Your runtime runs through the System logs, and from what you detect, the ship sustained the damage WHILE in warp, Your incessant man handling of the Scanning drone causes it to Short, Nice going. On a similiar note, you make a scanning drone, accompanied by a combat drone scan the engineering quarter of the ship, It seems almost pristine,  however there are no corpses, not even a little rat corpse to fry some more, However the Warp engine seems to be extensively damaged, but the main thrusters and fuel cells seem fine! All is left is Section M, and section C, Section D, and the various corridors and Sub-Departments throughout this ship.

Make some basic repair drones and an access drone to pop into the computer.
Make a repair drone and try to repair communications.
[16+multiple posts] The Fabrication system pushes out the Repair drones easily, the Networking drone will be fabricated next turn, and as a bonus, they have long distance communications, most drones would go offline without one near by, baring exemptions.
The repair drones  gets to work figuring out where the Communications system failed,[1]
...There wasn't one found.At all.

Research a more advanced fabrication system
[19+Bonus Runtimes]
The system figures out almost immediately on figuring out improvements on our current Fabrication systems, No longer will all our designs be basically scrap metal, turns out OUR blueprints were built towards cheap and easily built systems, sacrificing a tiny bit of that, they are now more reinforced, and slightly more expensive.

The scanning drone's scan through the M section, surprisingly, it is a Medbay, Various medical supplies and such are found, and a Single Medical drone, dormant and unable to be connected wirelessly sits, However there is a port for another drone to connect too.

It also comes to your attention that there is a massive Power drain, from Engineering, And from scans, it appears that something is using the power to charge something, however there are no drones active nearby.

[13+1] The drone gets to work fixing up a Fabricator, However from it's scans, it appears you will need More then a few metal patchs and a welding tool, to fix up any of them.

Fix other fabricators and scan engineering  to determine the power drains cause
[14] The scanning drone moves to Engineering, going to the source of the Power drain, It appears that something Inside the Engineering airlock is draining the Power network, The Drone opens the door, As the drone begins to move forward, A Humanoid, in a space suit, looks at the drone, then back at the computer it was typing into, before pulling out a Weapon from its Bag and blowing the drone to smithereens. Shortly after, our Directives update...

[5v12] In your attempt to shut this thing out, it appears it ran the hell out of the airlock, , The camera's from the sensors indicate that he is heading towards the medical section,  and from your brief views of him, he appears to have two Weapons, one a Rather large, probably Gyrojet Pistol, the other some sort of long barreled rifle/gun. However you did see that the thing rammed into a wall at rather high speed, dased, ish.

As we do not know what a human is, and that creature destroyed our drone, therefore threatening our Instance, Vent The Ship. Scramble Combat Drones. Erradicate Organics.
[20] A quick glance on the Data entry on "Human" means that this thing that charged into the ship is, infact, a human, However You send a Combat drone to move into his location, it moves speedily, and will arrive next turn, You quickly download data into its Pre-built Voise synthesizers on the "Human" Language.

The data entry is View only, unless we manage to somehow get  the what appears to be rather long password, Who knew that the "Humans" are rather nervious when it comes to AI's, what with all the lack of all knowing-ness of you... Or rather, all access.

They all walk to the opposite side of the room, with rather adapt speed for gravity-less room, and begin grabbing small bits of equipment. you note that each of them appear to have tattoo's of the Insignia there shoulder's.

A voice is heard from the internal communications system on board.
"Well... I see the Backup crew is dead, AI, give status report."
 A couple automated Engineering drones come online from the idle Fabricator, and begin repairing misc. areas that are breached.

He can't prove he's a member of the crew, therefore it doesn't matter if he is or not, we won't ever know. Making it irrelevant. We are to protect ourselves and our ship. We technically don't know if he's human or not. Spacesuits would never have see through faceplates, they're reflective and heavily shielded against radiation, we just know it's something in a suit that happens to have an insignia on it. The only thing that's prevented us from offing it so far is (in my opinion poorly argued) GM railroading. We technically can't tell if he's even human. Just a humanoid something wearing a suit. Could just be a robot. You can't certify it's human without a DNA scan. Kill the fucker.

"AI, I am gonna head to your core, Weather you like it or not, These charges can let me through, damaging the ship in the process, or would you like to open the doors for me?
He steps away from the armory, and into the airlock, tapping his foot.

Stun the human if that method is possible, try to reverse his actions in medbay  and ask why he needs to reactivate cryo..

[unneeded roll] The doors open finely, as it continues moving towards the core, The Man explains what he is going to do.
I'm gonna go into your core, and re-activate all the equipment that you don't have access to, and give you access to the main sensory suite, Then I'm probably gonna re-awake the rest of the Colonist's, Even if we can't get out of this system, we can atleast try and get somewhere, We'll probably need to repair the Warp drive first, Then we can continue either settling down, or exploring around, I hope.

The AI system room is obviously almost completely fine, and the fabrication room is a bit damaged. the Front, where the weapons are stored, both Personal and ship, are almost completely destroyed, The "Engineers" begin exiting out and get to work fixing the Warp drive, while a single, slightly macho Janitor goes outside, wearing a rather light suit and starts cleaning the bridge, tossing bodies into space after stripping them etc.

Build a probe and shoot it at the planet. We want to know what's down there before making a choice.
Heat shielded and ready to shoot out, the drone flys into what the atmosphere of the planet, little bit above "average" for humans but other wise fine, and quick  collection reveals that oxygen content is just a tad below Earth, The probe then hits the ground, and after several worrying moments later, it again sends out a signal with its secondary Antenna, the Drone propels it self into the air and explores, Revealing thatThe engineers Fashion a basic telescopic system and scan the planet as we orbit around it,  including a plethora of landing area's, and they can look for a particular site if you so wish.

The engineers also report that the majority of the ship is repaired enough that it can go through space, and it also comes to your attention that the Fabrication systems are out of most metallic substances, and the drones going through the halls reveal that a couple of the structures main supports are almost unreparibly destroyed, so if we do (crash)Land then the ship will never be able to escape atmosphere.

As the final Drones return back into the docks, The engineers begin de-orbbitting onto the planet,  They decide to land in what appears ot be a optimal spot, Close to the ocean, and near some mountains, while far away from the Wolf like creatures that disabled the drones.
