| =Sensors Specialist=
| |
| A '''sensors specialist''' is a [[bridge]]-based role aboard a [[starship]]. The role places the officer in charge of the [[Sensors Station]], using them to display and perform surveys on star systems and astronomical objects. In the [[UNSF]], sensors specialists hold the rank of crewmember and are members of the [[Science|science department]].
| |
|
| |
| ==Responsibilities==
| |
| The sensors specialist is primarily placed on the [[Sensors Station]] on the Bridge. Through it, they are primarily placed in charge of displaying nearby star systems and highlighting celestial bodies of interest. Whilst most duties relate to the ship's missions, they are also expected to look for [[Life and Tech Signatures]] and, in future updates, sources of ship supplies.
| |
|
| |
| If a [[Star System|star or planetary system]] is under investigation, the sensors specialist is expected to perform surveys on astronomical objects, including [[planet]]s and [[star]]. They are also expected to show the sensor input to help with decisions regarding ship missions and for ship management duties like refuelling. The sensors specialist may also be in charge of highlighting potential threats such as asteroid fields or black holes.

| |
| ==Primary Location and Access Level==
| |
| On a [[Magellan Class]] starship, sensors specialists are placed primarily in the [[Sensors Station]] aboard the [[Bridge]] to fulfil their duties on the bridge. As such, they are expected to have limited access to [[A Deck]]. As a member of the science department, they will likely have access to [[C Deck]] to report to the Chief Science Officer or other personnel in their department. The officer is also expected to have access to facilities and quarters on [[D Deck|D]] and [[E Deck]].

| ==Key Interactions==
| |
| ===Personnel===
| |
| A sensors specialist is expected to answer to an officer of the watch, whether it be the [[captain]], [[executive officer]] or officer of the watch. They are expected to follower [[Command (gameplay)|orders]] from the officer regarding tasks or duties. They are expected to highlight celestial objects of importance to the officer to inform decision making with the ship. However, they can also direct coordinates to the [[Helm]] officer to investigate the area.
| |
|
| |
| As a member of the [[science]] department, they are also expected to report to other officers and potentially relay information to necessary labs. It is likely they will receive commands from the Chief Science Officer
| |
|
| |
| ===Stations and Devices===
| |
| A sensors specialist is currently only expected to interact with the Sensors Station on the Bridge, where many of their duties will be based. They primarily will be expected to use it to send information and data to either the [[Holo-Display]] or Helm station.
| |
|
| |
| ==Development==
| |
| The Sensors Specialist's duties and gameplay has evolved as more functionality is added to the [[Sensors Station]]. The ability to spawn a sensors specialist was added during dev build 0.225.0.109 along with other bridge NPCs, though was only referred to as a '''Sensors NPC'''. The role was first named during the 2025-11-21 dev stream as part of the Magellan Crew Compliment.[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1B1dHXuHzwup_xRHQTtx3oU9G_8zD-Y0BfnTH0t7x-_c/edit?gid=0#gid=0]
