Chip

Chip could take a couple extra items off the captains hands, if they have a surplus. The requirements of this quest will change, as each character has a different list of items they can potentially request. The number of items will also vary within a range specific to that item. This also means the reward for this mission varies based on the specific item and amount of items requested.

The bulletin board can be found to the right of Chip's Canteen on the plaza deck (04). Every few days the bulletin board will have a marker above it, letting the player know there is a new request to pick up. There are three types of bulletin missions: to kill enemies, to find a certain type of microbe, or to bring various items to the character who posted the request.

Overview

1. Pick up the quest from the bulletin board.
2. Obtain the requested item(s).
3. Turn in to Chip

Walkthrough

Bulletin Board

When this mission is selected, the player will see a generic bulletin request that says:

Fellow Mates,

If anyone has a few extra of these items I would be glad to take them off your hands. They sure would come in handy.

Cheers!
Chip

Each character has a pool of several items the bulletin board mission can potentially ask for. The quantity requested for each item is unique to the item requested, the player will always get a number within this request range. The reward range in the below table is calculated off of the quantity requested range. The player can calculate their specific reward using this formula: $(itemBuyValue*quantityRequested)+20=creditReward$

Item Name	Request Range	Reward Range
Potato	1 - 3	78 - 194
Onion	1 - 3	64 - 152
Dried veggies	1 - 3	104 - 272
Compost machine	1	196
Tomato	2 - 3	92 - 128

Active

Once the quest is active, they will need to gather the requested items within the designated time frame. The player can open the mission log, on the left side of the screen, at any time to check their progress. Once the player has gathered enough of the requested items, the mission log icon will have a green check mark on it. It is suggested the player confirms they completed this specific mission, as the green check mark just tells the player that one of their current missions are complete.

If the player speaks with Chip while this mission is active, he will say:

Ah, I see you found my bulletin.

But only if you have extra, no need to worry yourself about my requests if it's too much hassle.

Turn In

Once the player has obtained the requested item(s), they need to return to Chip. When the player speaks with him, the quest will automatically turn in and he will say:

Dang, you brought me what I needed, and in time too! You just made my day, Partner.

The player will then automatically obtain their  credits reward, based off the number of items requested.
