There are lights on some of the aliens gear. Turn them off, god knows what they could be doing.

+1.
If the alien we took hostage was able to eat one of our ration bars, we can probably eat their ration bars.
Hopefully.

Well, that alien died for some reason..
Perhaps we should check the alien ration bars for potential ingredients which might be toxic for humans.

That.

We should give Mask and the other plantmin some time before we go search for them. I am sure they can handle themselves at this point, for a while any way.
In the meantime, we should probably plan ahead where to build a wall of sorts. There are confirmed hostiles in the nearby area, so it is better be safe than sorry.

Well, somewhere on this island there is a big ass ship full of big, aggressive raiders, so we should at least make sure they are aware of the danger and inform us about their plans in the future.

A wall sounds good, but I guess we need a lotta wood and dirt for that, since sand probably isn't that good of its own.

We can use the hull scanner to check the bottom part of the ship, just in case there's anything down there worth risking the radiation for.

yes!

[Aseaheru]

 We should also give each group of plantmin who go out a shortrange communicator, for emergencies only. Also, with the amount of stuff here, keeping a small group as guards and a potential response group would be useful.

[Coolrune206]

We should also incorporate the spare oxygen tanks into our current oxygen system, allowing us to go further from the ship.

I'd also like to try plugging the AI chip into something; anything. If we have any PDA of some kind, let's put it in there. If not, let's try putting it into a short-range communicator; just to see if it might respond to input.

+1, but don't put the ai in anything important, it might be angry

[Asgarus]

Try not to broadcast our position to the far bigger raider ship...

[omada]

We have to remember that there are two wreckage's in the island.

And one alien got out.

Turn 46



You spend a while tinkering with the salvaged equipment. You switch off the Alien life support packs, you probably should have noticed those earlier. You attach one of the spare air tanks to your own life support pack extending your air capacity by three hours. You could attach the other tank but you would lose your ability to easily holster your rifle which would hamper your ability to carry items.

You take one of the short range communicators (SRC) for yourself and give another to Bulb. You'll try and distribute them so that when teams leave the camp at least one member of the team has one. The SRCs look like they are some commercial personal communicators/computers refitted to work as independent units outside of a typical planet telecommunications network. It seems they are capable of text and audio communications, leaving messages as well as calendar/planning utilities and a few other minor functions. Unfortunately while they can interface with most equipment via the universal standard plugs and such they don't have a way for you to insert the AI chip. The only thing you currently have that could interface with the AI card would be your suit, which is pretty important to your survival right now.



Once you've completed that you inspect the antenna from the mountain again. Since you removed it's ability to transmit last time you hook it up to your own power supply and see what it does. As far as you can tell from it's diagnostic displays it's waiting to receive a signal. It looks like if it received a signal it would send something back, without giving it a signal you can't tell what it would reply with. You could probably change these behaviors if you wanted to using the SRC as an interface or just scrap it for some parts.

While investigating the antenna you realize your distress beacon is still very much active. You turn it off as per your efforts to reduce the chances of being detected by the larger ship.



Interrupting your tinkering session and the plant's messing around with power-tools session Mother gives new life into the world. The new Plantmin has tusks, and an additional set of arms which is causing a bit of a stir with the other Plantmin.



This commotion is interrupted by another commotion as Mask's party has returned with their catch.

Still feeling sick but I felt good enough to do an update. Hopefully I didn't mess up and write a bunch of gibberish.

[Ultimuh]

Check if there is any injuries in Mask's party that should be treated.
We should probably see what Tusk could contribute with, or should we let the other plantmins deal with that?
We should probably deal with our own thirst, but I guess we could wait until we actually get hungry first?

check injuries +1 and congratulates them for their good work
See what tusk can do? YES, let's see if he can do carry more or whatever.
Drink
Give alien dead corpse to be eaten or to the mother (come on we can't let it rot there)

What is that yellow and redish stuff in the green areas in the last image? check

hey, with which string they put their stoneclubs together? grass?
