What is one thing you wish you knew before playing RP?

[Dhaidburt]

You generally want to play as if you can't do everything yourself. For example, self-surgery. Especially on the slower rounds, medical staff can be twiddling their thumbs for ages and giving them the opportunity to do surgery is great! Screaming because of the pain while an entire medical staff rushes in to see you hack your own limbs off is funnier in concept than in practice.

This doesn't mean "stay in your lane, bub." Janitors can absolutely pick up some plates and replace flooring, or get access from the HoP for ACP controls if there's no AI and the engineers are busy. It also makes sense for your janitor to know how to make space cleaner, yeah?

Basically, ask for help where it makes sense (or if you genuinely don't know, everyone's gotta start somewhere and I'm still learning things.)
