Notice (**with** SOP changes)
version 1.02
For all rescues related to DWE2, all Rats are requested to include the text "DW2 Fuel" or "DWE2 Fuel" (for fuel related rescues) and "DW2 Repair" or "DWE2 Repair" (for repair cases, also include the client's starting hull % in the paperwork). Related means that the Rat(s) or client are part of DW2. If the case is both Fuel and Repair, only include "DW2 Fuel" |

NOTICE
The following SOP changes are made for all rescues related to DWE2:
Open and Private Group Usage
Rescues can be completed in either open or one of the official DWE2 private groups at the discretion of the client and dispatch. New members will not be added to those PGs in order to accomodate the rescue, so both the client and Rat(s) assigned must already be in the PGs. The official PGs (and the owning CMDR name) are:
Private Group (PG) usage varies by platform. As of 11 January 3305 (2 days prior to launch), more than half of PS4 players are in the PG, while less than 20% of Xbox CMDRs are in the PG. |
Repair Cases
Our normal SOP for Repair Cases (Hull/Canopy Repairs) will remain in place.
Emergency repairs should be completed per SOP and PW filed per the updated SOP (above).
Drills
Drills can continue to be conducted during DWE2, as long as appropriate damsels (drilled Rats) are available. In order to help protect the damsel from potential damage, they should maintain power to their thrusters, FSD and shields. If/when Ratlings call "prep-", the seer or dispatch should acknowledge the call, but continue with the prep- state.
The above orders will remain in place until the event has concluded and the orders are terminated.
