I wanted to make a post about the sol officers so everyone knows how they work because the current ones that are pinned take a lot of space and they are more importantly out of date. To make it easier to navigate press CTRL + F and search on a specified ID listed below: [1] For engineer [2] For medical [3] For helmsman [4] For science [5] For weapon [1] Chief Engineer Advanced Repair Advanced Repair I: + 1 Repair per turn. Advanced Repair II: + 3 Repair per turn. Advanced Repair III: + 5 Repair per turn. Advanced Repair IV: + 7 Repair per turn. Advanced Repair V: + 10 Repair per turn. Stress Engines Stress Engines I: + 40% Engine power (rounded up) Hull takes 5% damage(rounded up), Engine takes 10% damage (rounded up) This ability may be activated once per battle. Stress Engines II: + 80% Engine power (rounded up) Hull takes 10% damage(rounded up), Engine takes 20% damage (rounded up) This ability may be activated once per battle. Dark Matter Astrophysics Dark Matter Astrophysics I: Faster escape out of regions for capital ships. Allows class V-VII to escape the beginning of next combat turn and class VIII and higher only require one full turn to escape with their dark matter drive in combat. Dark Matter Astrophysics II: The dark matter engine can be activated anywhere on the map in combat -- they no longer need to travel to the edge of the map to escape. Power Boost Power Boost I: 5% Engine power (rounded up). Power Boost II: 10% Engine power (rounded up). Power Boost III: 15% Engine power (rounded up). Power Boost IV: 20% Engine power (rounded up).

Crew Toughness Crew Toughness I: +1 Crew strength. Crew Toughness II: +2 Crew strength. Emergency Escape Emergency Escape I: Allow 1 officer to escape the ship. Emergency Escape II: Allow 2 officer to escape the ship. Emergency Escape III: Allow 3 officer to escape the ship. Emergency Escape IV: Allow 4 officer to escape the ship. Emergency Escape V: Allow 5 officer to escape the ship. Note: It will prioritize your highest ranked officers first. If you have more officers at the same rank then you can escape with - it will be based on a priority list that i don't know. A common strategy is to go for Emergency Escape II and then get another officer to rank 2. Then go to Emergency Escape rank III and make the officer with rank 2 -> 3 and another officer from 0 -> 3. It will be slow but you will never lose a ranked officer that way. [3] Helmsman Sol Evasive Sol Evasive I: -5% Enemy accuracy. Sol Evasive II: -10% Enemy accuracy.
