Unfair first thief round...

I am so salty about this I had to make a post. Finally after 180 hours I got to be thief. My target was the nuke. Like steal the fucking nuke. Are you kidding me? I have never been thief before why not something manageable? But no. So I had no idea what to do but luckily my fellow salvs (I was a salv) couldn't find suits I think it was delta station? iirc... Anyway, they decided to steal lockers from all the other departments to pay for suits. They taught me how to use fultons and showed me some backdoor accesses, really helpful thief stuff actually, thanks salvs.

So I decided to use fultons to get the nuke cause what was I gonna do drag it down the hallway? I finally got to emag or whatever into the vault, and that's when i learn you can't move the nuke with fultons without the disk. It was like 10 til evac. So, my objective was to get the nuke yes, but in reality it was to get the nuke disk. How was i gonna know that? Where is the nuke disk? On the Captain, who also hands out a pointer for someone to locate it. The game doesn't tell you you need the disk, and I'm pretty sure that's one of the hardest things to steal and get away with it. My whole plan was stupid because I never stole the disk.

I'm salty because A: I had no idea I needed the disk I've never had to interact with the nuke before, B: Because that was a stupid objective like why not 10 IDs or something, and C: Turns out thieves aren't allowed to be salvs because they can't use weapons. I had to injure myself with a pickax and act real dumb to get outta work which I guess is allowed despite pacifism...

I dunno I will ask the internet, how on earth does one steal the nuke codes and not get caught? That doesn't seem... feasible... but I'm guessing someone out there has an answer. And please don't start your answer with "why didn't you just?" or "you simply had to" or anything like that because SS14 is a cryptic ass game and I'm not dumb for not knowing every mechanic even after 180 hours. Like its a hard game to learn man. Maybe everything is obvious to you but... not to me.

Xenobiology?

Hey can anyone explain Xenobiology to me? I guess I should say xenobiology as exists in Omustation cause it could be different somewhere else. I can't learn cause the only station ever chosen is Glacier and science on glacier has no xenobiology. Also the wiki says nothing on it. Thanks.
