SPACECRAFT RELIABILITY ENGINEER

You are on call. The ship is the incident.

You are the only reliability engineer on the Cassiopeia. One shift, twelve minutes, eight compartments across two decks — and a ship that fails faster than you can walk.

The loop

• Triage. The board on the bridge shows what is burning: fault code, severity, how long it has been open. 
• Diagnose. Each compartment terminal sees only its own hardware. 
• Look it up. The runbook is searched by symptom It gives you causes to verify, checks to run, and the repair steps.
• Repair. Physically. Flip the breaker, seat the filter, turn the dial. 

Survive to the end of the shift and you get the postmortem: what you closed, how long each fault burned, and what was still on the board when the clock ran out.

Controls

• WASD — walk, Shift — run, mouse — look
• E / LMB — interact
• B — runbook, Esc — close
• Alert board — the screen on the bridge. Terminal — the console in each compartment.
