ok this is a simple job idea and would be for micros more then anything. as they are small in size working on PDA's would be ideal for their size. (something that is built for them.)


what the job entails.

BUILDING PDAS

1. building circuit boards from chips and etteched glass.
2. molding casses, for the PDA using a plastic melter and molds.
3. wiring together screens for PDA's.


PDA MAINTENANCE WORK

1. using special tools to fix the spam filter on a PDA
2. using special tools to replace the screen on a PDA
3. adding sec requiested items to a PDA like a tracker, AI chip, or alert system.


ILLIGAL OPERATIONS

1. adding PDA overloaders designed to fire a PDA
2. making PDA's that have the ability to hack into systems
3. attaching department scanners to PDA (illigal use of tech though if the owner requested not illigal)

how this department runs

1. get resources from mining, mostly plasteel, steel, and glass.
2. use said resources in production machines to make the parts needed (Wire, ships, etched glass boards)
3. building a PDA
4. sending crates of blank PDA's to cargo for them to deliver.
5. replacing lost PDA's because you know that is their main job on this station.


I have some sprites I can supply for this. but I have spammed them enough on the discord.

Just pointing out, science can print PDAS out on the protolathe, along with some of the cartridges for them. Never really used because it has never really been needed.

I know but this was just an idea. doubt it will ever be useful.
