Transmission: The Zone

AppleFudge: Fixed formatting issue

{{Spoilers}}

==== Someone out there? ====

===== '''Tobias:''' =====
''"Hello? Someone out there? Hello?''

''Could've sworn I-nevermind.''

''Francis! The radar's acting up again. You were supposed to tune-up this piece of junk years ago!"''

==== Tobias And Francis ====

===== Tobias: =====
''"The signal, yes, it's back, it's back!''

''This is Tobias Barlow and Francis Cooke, located in Mid-Zone, Sector B. Do you read me?''

''I'm picking up your distress signal in the Outer Zone. Looks like you're somewhere around Sector E?''

''Hey Francis! Come here.''

''Yes, it's urgent. Leave that interferometer alone for a second-something is out there."''

==== A Live One ====

===== Tobias: =====
''"We've got a live one! Do you copy?''

''Hello? Is this thing working?"''

===== Francis: =====
''"They don't have a transmitter. We won't hear a thing back."''

===== Tobias: =====
''"Huh. But if they're stranded-could that mean they're from outside? They're a Breacher?''

''Hey, how'd you get through the Barrier Wall? No one's gotten into the Zone in ages and lived to tell about it"''

===== Francis: =====
''"And if we don't get them to safety, this one won't either."''

===== Tobias: =====
''"That's a good point.''

''Hey. You're in serious danger. The instability's closing in, and it's going to scramble you quicker than beef in a blender.''

''Your closest shelter is a few miles east. Get there, however you can, and be quick about it."''

==== A Remnant? ====

===== Tobias: =====
''"Woah, woah, woah, hold the phone. There it is again, that blip on the spectrometer. I've seen that waveform before, but where?''

''No kidding, could it be? A Remnant?"''

===== Francis: =====
''"It can't be. There hasn't been one in decades."''

===== Tobias: =====
''"Look at that spectral fingerprint. Tell me that doesn't match the Remnants exactly."''

===== Francis: =====
''"What we should be looking at is how fast this Breacher seems to be moving."''

===== Tobias: =====
''"If I didn't know better, I'd say they're going about the speed of a-no way. Do not tell me. They found a Remnant, and it's a car this time?''

''Holy cripes, no one's had working wheels in here for ages. Boy, I'd kill to know how a combustion engine's still chugging away out there."''

===== Francis: =====
''"Let's not get ahead of ourselves. First, the Breacher needs to get to safety. Then we can look into whether that car is a Remnant or not."''

===== Tobias: =====
''"In my heart of hearts, I already know. They're back baby!"''

==== Oppy's Shop ====

===== Francis: =====
''"Oh no, no, no. Do not tell me you sent them to Oppy's shop."''

===== Tobias: =====
''"It's either that or the instability turns this newbie inside-out."''

===== Francis: =====
''"What's to stop her from killing them the minute they step foot onto her property?"''

===== Tobias: =====
''"Maybe she'll be more reasonable then the last time we heard from her?''

Yeah, I'm not convinced either. But hey, it's not every day that decades-old legends reappear. Move it or lose it, you know?"

===== Francis: =====
''"That's exactly why she can't be involved. We can't trust her with something this important."''

===== Tobias: =====
''"I know, I know. But you know we've got no reach in the Outer Zone. Until the Breacher can get around on their own, Oppy's all we've got.''

''Don't worry. you leave the talking to me."''

===== Francis: =====
''"When have you ever not done the talking?"''

==== After All These Years ====

===== Tobias: =====
''"Goddamn, figures that Remnant would appear in the Outer Zone. If it was closer to us and we could've got our hands on it, man. After all those years"''

Auto Shop

2024-10-23T07:31:16Z

AppleFudge: Added a period to previous edit (oops)

[[File:Auto Shop Ext.jpg|thumb|393x393px]]
The Auto Shop is the main hub of the game. Here you can modify your [[Car|car]], store [[Found Items|items]], and use a variety of stations.

The shop is owned by [[Oppy]], who begrudgingly allows [[The Driver]] to use it as a base.
== Default Stations ==
These stations are available without the need for research.
=== Route Planner ===
{{Logbook|The only way you're ever going to find your way around in this scrambled soup of a place is by carefully, methodically mapping out your progress. Keep track of different routes using this map, along with information on how safe (or dangerous) they might be.}}
See [[Junctions]] for Route Planner usage.

[[File:Fuel Pump.jpg|thumb|x183px]]
=== Fuel Pump ===
{{Logbook|If the Zone has one thing going for it, it's that gasoline here is free.}}
The Fuel Pump can be used to refuel your car and any empty fuel cans. See [[Fuel Pump]] for more details.

[[File:First Aid Station.jpg|thumb|183x183px]]
=== First Aid Station ===
{{Logbook|Don't forget to patch yourself up! If you haven't got your health, you haven't got anything.}}
The First Aid Station will fully heal [[The Driver]].
=== Status Monitor ===
{{Logbook|A big screen version of the car's current status. How's that high res lookin'?}}
This monitor displays a larger version of the Status Monitor inside the car. Interacting with this monitor will show/hide a Driver's Checklist of recommended tasks before setting out on another drive.
=== Charging Station ===
{{Logbook|“Inductive charging and resonant coupling clearly have ample application. I'm convinced they're the future of so many devices. I also believe they may be viable in transport, even heavy industry,” say Oppy's old notes.}}
Throwing the charger switch while the car is on the lift will fully charge the battery. This station can be upgraded to the Experimental Charging Station.
=== Tinker Station ===
{{Logbook|If your car ain't broke, don't fix it. But if it is malfunctioning, and in some unusual way, this will help you understand how.}}
This station is used to diagnose [[Quirks]]. It can be upgraded to tell you which elements of your guess are correct, and to use Stable Anchor Energy to pinpoint one correct factor of the diagnosis.
=== Workbench ===
{{Logbook|“Why buy it, when you can slap it together yourself with duct tape and saliva?” — Dr. Ophelia Turner, 1971}}
The workbench can be used to craft more advanced recipes. At first, it can only craft [[:Category:Workbench_Tier_1|Tier 1]] and [[:Category:Workbench_Tier_2|Tier 2]] recipes, but eventually it can be upgraded to craft [[:Category:Workbench_Tier_3|Tier 3]] items as well.

=== Friendly Dumpster ===
{{Logbook|If you’re ever in dire need, pay this a visit. As much as the Zone takes away, sometimes she also provides.}}
See [[Friendly_Dumpster|Friendly Dumpster]] for more details.

== Storeroom Stations ==
These stations require access to an [[Impact Hammer]] to break either of the large yellow locks on the double doors into the storeroom.
=== Fabrication Station ===
{{Logbook|This is where the real engineering gets done. The Fabrication Station will allow you to unlock a host of new technologies that will help you upgrade both your Auto Shop and your car.}}
The Fabrication Station can be used to unlock [[Found Items#Refined_Components|refined recipes]] and build new stations for your Auto Shop. See [[Fabrication Station]] for more details.

=== Vargas Auto-Vac ===
{{Logbook|What's the point of inventing all these new technologies if you can't use them to spruce things up a little? Here's to a tidier future.}}
The Auto-Vac sucks up items on the floor and deposits it in its inventory. It must be manually emptied. Careful: the Auto-Vac inventory is destroyed upon exiting the Garage.

=== Oppy's Pneumatube ===
{{Logbook|The Pneumatubes, also known as the Tubes, span the Zone. A low-tech, low maintenance method of communication and delivery, they've endured in a place where so many advanced alternatives have not.}}
The Pneumatube input and output are located to the left of the door into the storeroom.

== Fabricated Stations ==
These stations need to be crafted at the [[Fabrication Station]] and placed in the garage.
=== Outfitting Station ===
{{Logbook|Upgrading cars is one thing. But now, it's time to spend a few of those Zone resources upgrading yourself. Go on, you deserve it.}}
=== Detailing Station ===
{{Logbook|Store and install your vehicle cosmetics at this dedicated beautification station.}}
=== Repair Station ===
{{Logbook|Give yourself a little help patching up the car every time you return to the garage with this powerful automatic regenerator.}}
=== Athletic Stimulation Station/Hoop ===
{{Logbook|It's such a generously sized target. How difficult could it be to score a few points?}}
=== Deco-Vend ===
{{Logbook|This retrofitted vending machine will reward you with a wagon accessory in exchange for Anchor energy.}}
=== Fish Tank ===
{{Logbook|Fish have been kept since at least the time of the Sumerians. There's no reason not to keep something a little more esoteric in here, too.}}

== Storage Facilities ==
The Auto Shop starts out with three accessible containers: a Locker and a Toolbox by the entry gate, and a Paint Shelf on the left-hand side of the car station.

''''' Locker Storage Grids '''''
{{StorageGrids|storage_grids=8x3,8x4,8x4}}

''''' Toolbox Storage Grids '''''
{{StorageGrids|storage_grids=5x2}}

''''' Paint Shelf Storage Grids '''''
{{StorageGrids|storage_grids=10x2,10x2,10x2,10x2,10x2,10x2}}

Early into the storyline, [[The Driver]] receives a [[Transfer Trunk]], which can also be used as permanent storage.

''''' Transfer Trunk Storage Grids '''''
{{StorageGrids|storage_grids=10x8}}

After unlocking the Storeroom, [[The Driver]] gains access to another Locker. Oppy's Pneumatube, located in the same area, can also be used in a pinch.

''''' Storeroom Locker Storage Grids '''''
{{StorageGrids|storage_grids=8x3,8x4,8x4}}

''''' Oppy's Pneumatube Storage Grids '''''
{{StorageGrids|storage_grids=5x3,5x3}}

Through the Fabrication Station, [[The Driver]] can construct up to 4 [[Expanded Locker|Expanded Lockers]] and place them throughout the Shop.

''''' Expanded Locker Storage Grids '''''
{{StorageGrids|storage_grids=10x3,10x4,10x5}}

Each of the 4 lockers can be expanded further with the [[Pneumatic Locker]] upgrade, switching it from grid-based to list-based interface, with vastly increased capacity (enough to fit the contents of all other storage facilities combined; actual limit TBD).
