	Voidsuits are much more advanced over softsuits, and provide a slightly better range of options. The only downside is that they must be refit in a [[Guide to EVA#Suit_Cycler\|suit cycler]] to fit your species/anatomy if you are not human. Voidsuits, however, contain a suit slot for oxygen tanks so that you don't have to place one on your back. On top of this, voidsuits can also be assembled and compacted down to a single item, which will be covered below. Despite what some may look like, voidsuits are ~~''not''~~ suits of armor~~, and~~ can ~~still~~ be damaged beyond optimal operation~~. Punctures must be repaired with a welder, and scorches require steel sheets.~~		Voidsuits are much more advanced over softsuits, and provide a slightly better range of options. Well voidsuits are suits of armor they still can be damaged beyond optimal operation

	===Assembly===		==Repairing Space Suits==
	Assembly is done by taking a voidsuit component and clicking on the main suit with it. This will attach it to the suit, and will deploy once the main suit is equipped ''as long as nothing is in the way,'' shoes being an exception for magboots. To remove components, use ~~a screwdriver~~ on the suit. Assembly is optional but very much encouraged.		Any tool with sealing quality will patch up both slashes and melting, this even works well you are inside the space suit making it the easiest.
			For melting damage from burns you may want to remove the suit and use plastic or steel sheets on it, this will instantly repair the breaches but you can not do this well waring the space suit.
			For slashes and or punctures a welder may be used to repair, however like using sheets you are not able to do so well waring the suit.

	Hardsuits are ~~perhaps~~ the most advanced pieces of EVA equipment ~~supplied by Nanotrasen~~. They resemble control modules that fit on your back to deploy and manage components and modules at the press of a button. ~~Refitting hardsuits is unnecessary (and impossible) because the hardsuit will conform to a user's anatomy as soon as it deploys.

Hardsuits have more utility over voidsuits in that they contain modules that can perform a variety of tasks, depending on the control module you're wearing. The downsides of hardsuits, however, are that they inflict a speed penalty (some of which can be negated by keeping the chestpiece undeployed, or ~~picking~~ the ~~Hardy trait)~~ and ~~they are uncommon~~, ~~only eight in total belonging~~ to the ~~station~~.

Waring a RIG's glove will prevent you from being handcuffed, but not from cable cuffs or zipties! RIG's even when unpowered will block surgery requiring the surgent to remove it via another surgery.

			RIGs also have ablative armor, this armor slowly degrades as the plates protect you from being harmed. To repair ablative armor simply take off your RIG and open its panel, then use any welding quality tool to slowly mend and repair the damaged plates.

	==[[File:Jetpack_black.gif\|64px]]Jetpacks==		==[[File:Jetpack_black.gif\|64px]]Jetpacks==
	Unless you're using a ~~hardsuit~~, jetpacks are necessary to navigate environments without gravity, otherwise you will drift perpetually unless another force acts on your character, such as throwing or coming into contact with an object. Activating a jetpack will allow you to move around quickly, and activating stabilization (at the cost of more propellant) will allow for more precise movement. Jetpacks must be placed on your back to work, and '''should not be used as internals''' if the paint on the jetpack is black. If you are not granted the luxury of using a jetpack, a fire extinguisher will work as well.

EVA is an often used phrase that means '''Extravehicular Activity''', which more often than not refers to going out into space, or '''spacewalking'''.

=Space Suits and Equipment=
In order to not succumb to vacuum and have your blood boil out of your pores, you must wear protective equipment. Below are the different types of equipment available.

==[[File:Softsuit.png|64px]]Softsuits==
Softsuits are your most basic protective equipment against vacuum and space. They are commonly found in the blue emergency oxygen closets placed around the station. The suit and helmet are separate, but also quite fragile and susceptible to puncturing and tearing, which would render the suit useless against space. They are also clunky, encumbering, and colored very brightly.

==[[File:VMVoidsuit.png|64px]]Voidsuits==
See also: [[Voidsuit]]s

Voidsuits are much more advanced over softsuits, and provide a slightly better range of options. The only downside is that they must be refit in a [[Guide to EVA#Suit_Cycler|suit cycler]] to fit your species/anatomy if you are not human. Voidsuits, however, contain a suit slot for oxygen tanks so that you don't have to place one on your back. On top of this, voidsuits can also be assembled and compacted down to a single item, which will be covered below.

To remove components, use a screwdriver on the suit. Assembly is optional but very much encouraged.

There are different cyclers for different department voidsuits, all locked to prevent other departments from obtaining or impersonating another department's color. As long as you have access, you are able to lock and unlock a suit cycler.

==Operation==
A small window of options should appear once the cycler is unlocked. Options range from recoloring and refitting suits to sterilizing the voidsuit in UV light. To refit a suit, place the voidsuit and helmet inside the cycler, select the type of suit (which will just change the sprite, the suit will still have the same stats as before), and select your race. Click '''Begin Customization Routine''' and wait for around ten seconds until the cycler pings. Remove the voidsuit and helmet and ensure that they fit on your character.

	To cycle back into the shuttle or station, simply click '''Cycle to Interior''' and wait for the room to pressurize.
