Cpt.Kenneth: ok... well, if you cant send a beacon, get to the escape pods. ok, im at a wall terminal, and it says... three escape pods left. they have their own beacons, so launch one with its beacon on, without sending it anywhere, then take another and go to the nearest spaceport. ill see what i can do about the SSR.

Cpt.Kenneth: should only take week to get there Alex, the engines on those pods are only a little slower than the Arcane.

Cpt.Kenneth: if you point the pod towards the spaceport, although you wont accelarate you wont slow down. not much in space that can do that. even if the fuel only lasts five days the antimatter reactor that comes with it lasts a fortnight. if your that worried, launch the third one and couple it to the first one. then when the first pod runs out, you can get into the second one and pilot that.

Alex: only the crew one has its own reactor, but yes, i suppose they could get there, tell all the passengers to go to the pods... i can't beleive this is happening again

Cpt.Kenneth: Alex, there arent enough pods. there was a bomb just outside the bay which destroyed all but three of them. this is the only thing we can do. you follow with the plan, ill work on the SSR panel.

Cpt.Kenneth: just go, Alex, the longer this goes on, the longer its going to be untill rescue. but... there is ONE more option.

Alex: what is it?
RedDwarfIV
#18704426Wednesday, December 30, 2009 7:18 PM GMT

Cpt.Kenneth: its very labour intensive, and its hard to make sure you will get there, but the Swift Drive can be controlled manually. it takes all the computing power of the mainframe to get the calibrations right, so we could end up as far as a light year away from your expected destination, and it might not work at all, but its certainly possible. another outcome is that the ferry could be ripped to shreds, though serious damage is unlikely.

#18763180Thursday, December 31, 2009 11:51 AM GMT

Cpt.Kenneth: if you say no to the Swift Drive, ok. its just that it would greatly increase chances of rescue or allow us to be completely safe. but seeing as thats not an option, we only have two others. fix the SSR, send you out in a pod, or send a pod out with a distress signal.

Cpt.Kenneth: any of the options have the posibility of us not making it. unless you took two pods and latched them together by the air lock. so as well as the extra fuel you get two chances if ou are hit by a metiorite or similar.
