NICE SUGGESTIONS TO NOT FUCKING DIE

[Thanks for the name suggestion Arcade; SecUnit clearly didn't take to heart any of the other parts about not being able to tell people what to do.]

1. Never leave the Convoy [Convoy defined as the main trailers plus the radius of the shield and additional vehicles, approximately 80 meters] alone. Survey and scavenging groups should consist of at least 2 members.

2. When leaving the Convoy always inform someone outside of your party of your intended itinerary and duration of travel.

3. Perform regular check-ins during the excursion [ideally every 15 minutes] via the radio.

4. Bring a method of defense that you have training and certification in. This should be used as a LAST RESORT, if unable to avoid aggressive wildlife. Call for backup before engaging.

5. In an emergency situation safety of survey personnel is priority one. Abandon all equipment if necessary. Yes, even if that means the aggressive fauna will destroy it. Or eat it.

6. Never operate a vehicle or weapon while any of the following: Intoxicated, sleep-deprived, distracted, experiencing physical illnesses such as migraines, gastrointestinal symptoms, blood loss, etc.

7. Do not consume or touch unfamiliar plants or other food items without first confirming their safety for human ingestion. Licking counts as consuming.

8. Don't startle your SecUnit.

Groups leaving the Convoy should have at least one person with combat experience.

[This guy definitely knows that, but Levi feels it might need to be stated plainly. Civilians weren't always the brightest when it came to things like that.]

Cosigned.

[And rule 8 is especially noted.]

Won't be surprised if rule 6 becomes harder to enforce, courtesy of these transformations we have to deal with.

I will try to follow these!

[Perhaps not the "never go anywhere alone" rule because that makes for boring rp isn't always feasible. But he will try!]

may I ask however

what is a SecUnit so I can avoid the startling?

[The thought certainly does occur to him that it's this person posting, but he does want to be sure.]

You've startled me more times than I did you.

[ TO BE FAIR,,,, he only reluctantly cosigned that title. SecUnit deserves the credit. ]

...Surprisingly reasonable.

Though I'm not exactly sure how we're supposed to confirm the safe application of unfamiliar plants without touching them.

certification?

[Is he asking because he doesn't know where to get certification, or because he doesn't even know what that word means? Guess we'll find out!]

Questions:

1. Is up-to-date weapons certification necessary if one of us happens to be programmed and designed for field combat?

2. Do separated components of survey personnel count as equipment, survey personnel, or do they have a separate ranking in priority, assuming the parts are still operational can be repaired? [Important note: Part in question may still send pain signals.]

3. Is touching unfamiliar food items permissible if one of us cannot be affected by toxins due to being an inorganic form of life?

4. WHAT THE KRIFF IS A SECUNIT AND HOW DO I KNOW IF I'M STARTLING ONE? [Important note: Highest priority question.]

P.S.: Great suggestions, very excited to hopefully not die.
