Ship maintenence

Refplace · 08-12-2014, 06:29 PM

Ok, so I am playing a medic for a space game and have a question. I want to be able to do emergency repairs, or possibly alter (the old gas in the air vent thing) and spot alterations to such systems on a ship.
Electronics Repair (Medical) covers lifesupport, I assume thats personal life support for maintaining a patient.
Mechanic (vehicle type/Contragrav) mostly used for fixing and tinkering with his grav bike can cover all vehicle types that use contragrav.

What default, skill, or optional specilaity would be appropriate for working on a spaceships lifesupport? I dont really want the guy to be skilled at repairing a whole ship. I figure ship maintenence is covered by using all of Mechanic (Vehicle), Mechanic (Motive System) and Mechanic (Power Plant) plus various Electronics Repair skills.

Thank you.

Spaceships lists Mechanic (Life Support).
