The Megalodon

A sub shaped like a shark inspired by the now extinct (thanks to Jason Statham) megalodon.

The sub is a Tier 1 transport sub with storage for 40 crates. You will start a campaign with 1,500 credits on normal difficulty. Containers have been manually stocked with standard starting equipment.


Neutral Ballast: 0.44.

Speed:
Horizontal: 23 km/h
Vertical Ascending: 19 km/h
Vertical Descending: 15 km/h

Note: The sub is very sensitive to extra water on board. If either of the airlocks or the brig is flooded expect the descending speed to increase as high as 20 km/h. Repair all breaches and keep the airlocks dry!

Offense: Its offensive capabilities are initially basic with limited firing angles but are upgradeable
with 2 additional hardpoints. One larger hardpoint in the centre of the bottom of the sub and one small hardpoint in the upper fore side.

There is an electric discharge coil in the mouth of the shark allowing you to "bite" intruders. This can be activated automatically via motion sensors controlled by the navigation console or it can be activated manually via a button in the mouth/airlock. Note: The motion sensors will shock friend and foe alike, because I think it's funny.

Remember: If the lights in the mouth are red, you're gonna end up dead. If the lights are white, it's probably alright.

Power: I didn't do anything special with the electricals so your engineers and mechanics will be busy with regular repairs, which I think is a good thing.
There is an optional automation system which is now not as efficient as it once was due to the developers making this kind of thing less effective. Read the logbook in the large steel cabinet beside the reactor to learn more.

Lighting: The sub has actual emergency lighting. When the reactor is not producing power the red emergency lights will automatically turn on.

You can cycle through all of the ship's searchlights by left clicking while using the periscope.

Engineering: The sub has a full compliment of fabricators/deconstructors and a mineral scanner in engineering (Now integrated in the Navigation Console) and a research station. All fabricators are linked to nearby storage containers.

Special Features:

The command deck has an advanced monitoring system where the captain can be notified of any fires, floods or areas of low oxygen. The system tells the captain exactly which rooms are affected from the safety of the command deck.

In the event that you are under-crewed, the captain has a briefcase full of keycards with various permissions in the command deck. Read the logbook within to learn more.

The cargo bay door can be locked from the outside preventing intruders/prisoners from escaping,
but beware the compartment is vulnerable to attack from outside the sub so captives may drown or be killed by pressure if not rescued in time.

The bridge also has a lockable door to protect the captain from mutiny or unwanted guests. Be careful not to lock yourself out (the lock can easily be unwired if you do)!

There is also a brig where you can imprison or execute any traitors on board. Suitably this brig is located in the sharks a**hole. It is simply a chamber where the door can only be opened from the outside, trapping the captive within. You can flood the chamber via a lever which will drown the captive or cause them to die via water pressure. Note: Does not work on Husk carriers or water pranksters.
