Overview

The G.R.I.P. OmniTool is a computerized multi-tool, mounted on the right forearm of your space suit. It provides a great deal of information, allows access to the game menu, and can even make a network connection to a device, to allow your suit to control in an emergency. Be advised that external devices can quickly drain your suit power when your G.R.I.P. is connected to them, so do so wisely! It also performs a number of useful functions you can access by pressing the 'Tab' key, and some functions can be accessed directly by pressing a hotkey. The home screen of the OmniTool has six functions, and additional function are nested within these as described below.

Device Manager

This menu has three nested function and is likely the most powerful function of the G.R.I.P. OnmiTool. It will let you connect directly to the device you are pointing at and interact with it, providing you have the permission to do so. You can deactivate or activate the device, manage permissions of who can interact with the device, or if there is no power to the device; connect the tool power supply to it and use it. The power available to the tool is shown in a bar graph to the right, and once depleted takes some time to recharge.

  • Manage access to the device
  • Deactivate the device
  • Select a device by pointing at it
    • Connect to the device

    • Disconnect from the device

Status

This menu has two nested functions, Ship Status to read relevant data, and Diplomacy, which will show your standing with the various factions.

  • Ship Status: Similar screen and functions as found in the Wall Terminal device, you can view ship information such as sensors, armor, fuel, shield and oxygen values. You can check power groups, life support and pilots on-board.
  • Diplomacy: This shows a bar graph display labeled with all the faction names and a colored bar to indicate your current standing with each faction. Completing missions for a faction will raise your standing, while hacking and shooting up the property of one of these factions will lower it.
