Do starport mechanics do detailed cleans as well on repair-all?

Finally returned to Sol last night, after a two month tour

Quick stats:

61 days, 10hours, 45 minutes (real time)
12 days, 3 hours, 16 minutes (space time)

8587 hyperspace jumps
8536 systems visited (only a bit of backtracking)
207595.82 Lys travelled - average 24.17 ly per jump
65,057 ly - furthest from sol

1 hour 36 minutes of selling exploration data :p
196,179,694 cr received -average 22983 cr per system

hull remaining on arrival - 46% - lost 48% landing (well, crashing) on planets, the remainder was when trying to dock on return to civilisation, guess my docking skills were a bit rusty after two months

62 Neutron stars
13 Black Holes
40 Earth-likes
58 Ammonia Worlds
202 Terraformable Water Worlds
264 non-TF Water Worlds
....and a bunch of other stuff I am still cataloguing (ED Discovery needs a good export tool :p)

Anyways, back to the topic - my cockpit is a little bit funky now, beyond tipping a barrel of lysol in there. Hope that the techs can get rid of the smell when they repair the ship

I know this is relatively quick - I also wonder how bad it will be for the DW guys, or the guys who like to spend a year out in the black. Why don't they think of the poor mechanics who have to go in there after they get back?

I have thus been 114 days in a sidewinder cockpit...I don't imagine there is really much the cleaners could do but set off some high explosives in the cockpit.

Congrats on making it home Cmdr.

Aren't you actually now welded to the chair by bodily secretions? Didn't the towels stop bending after a month?

You're going to walk through the starport like a Thunderbirds doll.

I think I just threw up a little...

Frawd, your poor sidey will be worth nothing but a museum piece by the time you get back as there aren't enough high-powered scrubbers in the Empire to clean that thing out!

Grats OP. Sounds like enough for Elite. Did you post over in that thread as well?

A museum piece behind very thick glass...to keep in the scent...

oh yeah, I noticed it on my way back into the bubble, there is a sizeable collection of ships enforcing the borders of the populated worlds, looking for you, something about "biological weapon" and "banned by galactic agreement" or something

So that's what the Formadine Rift discussion is about!

Salome goes to BP to gather up the remains of Frawd's ship to use as an alpha strike in a barnacle-fueled galactic takeover of the Empire!:eek:

Surely that would be a war-crime...nobody should have that inflicted upon them!!

I think you're slightly exaggerating there. Sure, the cockpit is tiny. But overall, that thing is larger than any terrestrial campervan and masses about as much as a large truck. As long as the recycler is doing its job, there's no reason why you wouldn't be able to fit in a shower cubicle.

Of course, a Python might be more something like this. As for the 'conda or the Orca, I wouldn't speculate (yet).

I had the shower cubicle removed and replaced with a larger bar fridge before I left the bubble...I have priorities you know.

I thought a Quarantine World had already been found for Frawd to land on.
 
If you treat your personal space, like a teenage boy treats his bed room; you can expect to die of some form of bacteria based illness, sooner of later. I would imagine that you could 'see' the atmosphere of some of the     -pits; of our younger, or lazier explorers.
