@Reminder: can you tell me what my character thinks about the map after checking it? I’d like to decide if he will ask for that map Smokescreen offered for a favor.

I'm not exactly sure what you are looking for in reference to seeing on the map, so I can't tell what your character thinks about it. Assume the mapsoft has general terrain info, ground cover, etc. It is clearly sufficient for you to navigate by if that is what you are looking for. Well, unless you glitch, or, better yet,  ;D crit glitch ;D or something .

Based on what your contact told you, he may have some slight knowledge of the area, but admits himself it's not much. So it's basically if you want to see if his has anything that isn't on the mapsoft version (and I am not going to promise anything he knows will help), then you will need to take him up on his offer. I would have put a price on it, but you had said in your writeup you two didn't know each other well, but had traded some favors, so you will have to decide if you want to owe him or not for what may or may not amount to anything useful.

Also, game time is now 8:30 (since I mistakenly put it in the other thread (it's removed now).

Survival kit looks good. Maybe add a mess kit as part of the multi-utinsil. All in all, it looks correct.

Mess kit goes a bit past what you need to survive, into things that would be nice to have (so might the rain gear, but I already put that one in so it's staying). That, and it would compromise portability (presumably everything else would easily fit in a standard size backpack)

I was kind of thinking about the mess kit I had when I was a Boy Scout. Two shallow metal bowls (one with a hinged handle), tin cup, and a small cooking pot that fit together in a small nylon pouch. It isn't a big deal either way.

It seems everyone is kind of at the end of what they want to do for the day...

You want to find someplace to shack out (or go back home) and pick it up tomorrow?

That's fine. Mlinzi was going to hit the rest room and try to clean off the paint from her face so that she may have a bit of an easier time when she tries to get a coffin room.

That's fine. Though I wouldn't necessarily take what the waitress said as fact. Also, I figured you could find the bathroom without gm intervention :) (sorry, wry sense of humor got the best of me there)

Right now you are at the edge of the docks district, surrounded by mostly warehouses with a few factories. If you want to do a matrix search to find a place of lodging, I wouldn't even require a roll, it being information that they would want readily available.

Or ask someone else. The latest waitress didn't like Mlinzi.

I'll bite. Alexander makes a Matrix search, prioritizing cheap and nearby results as best he can.

By price, Tubs offers the lowest hourly rates while Josie's Bunkhouse is the cheapest by the night, Both are near the shoreline in the docks and you have directions to reach either.

It seems like everyone is ready to advance the clock if you want to make your exits to wherever you are spending your nights.

I'm just going to take control at this point and move things forward to the next day since everyone seemed to be done with what they wanted to do. Anyone that bunked out the stay for the night was 40nuyen. Upon your arrival last night, you did notice a small cafe two doors down if you want to use it in the morning (It's fine if you don't. I just figured that way it would save you having to do a search or legwork just to find someplace to sit down in the morning. Otherwise you have your rooms until 10am unless you pay another night in advance (that may seem early, but all you got was a room with a bed that caters mostly to sailors.

Also, I know all the contacts you put calls into have not yet returned them. They may or may not be in contact at some point during the day.

It seems we have one car (Ultra’s van). Do we have a second one, fit for off-road travel, or do we have an agreement on renting a second car?
