Not only was this wasteful and a logistical challenge, but it was also a strain on a planet's environment. With these challenges in mind, the Mining Guild reached out to the **NDC's Department of Engineering**. Together, they designed and built the MG-MR-1a Dragon-class Mobile Refinery, a huge starship that could act as a mobile refinery. As the NDC's Department of Engineering shifted to a focus on government and military projects, the Mining Guild acquired its own ability to produce starships - including the Dragon.

 The scale of the problem seemed daunting until one engineer made them think of creating a mobile refinery. The Department of Engineering had expertise in ship design and construction, so the NDC and Mining Guild together came up with a schematic. Once they secured approval from Astrid to use parts from a Nepleslian ship, they began construction on the Mining Guild's first Mobile Refinery.. The scale of the problem seemed daunting until one engineer made them think of creating a mobile refinery.

 === Bridge === === Bridge ===
-The bridge of the Dragon was positioned at the bow of the ship, mere meters from the edge of the ship at the sides and 2 meters from the front of the ship. The Bridge is a medium-sized room with standing room, and to the starboard side is the communications station, to the left of the Captain’s chair. The bridge also has a wide viewing area displaying the universe ahead. The helmsmen and Navigator's seat is in front of the captain's seat. The Chief engineer’s section was at the back to the left, while the head of security was to the right. +{{  :corp:mining_guild:location:mgdragonbridge.png?400|}}The bridge of the ship is strategically positioned at the bow, just a few meters from the ship's edge on either side and only two meters from the front. This prime location allows for an expansive and unobstructed view of the surrounding space, crucial for navigation and monitoring. 
 + 
 +The bridge itself is a medium-sized room, designed to accommodate the necessary personnel and equipment without feeling cramped. There is ample standing room, allowing crew members to move freely and access different stations quickly. The layout of the bridge is carefully organized to ensure efficiency and clear lines of communication between key positions. 
 + 
 +To the starboard side of the bridge is the communications station, positioned to the left of the Captain's chair. This station is equipped with advanced communication tools, allowing the operator to manage internal and external communications, monitor signals, and handle any necessary transmissions. The proximity to the Captain's chair ensures that the Captain can easily interact with the communications officer and stay informed about any incoming or outgoing messages. 
 + 
 +The bridge features a wide viewing area that displays the vast expanse of the universe ahead. This viewing area, essentially a large viewport or screen, provides the crew with a real-time visual of their surroundings, aiding in navigation and situational awareness. The clear view of space is essential for detecting potential hazards, navigating through complex environments, and appreciating the beauty of the cosmos. 
 + 
 +Directly in front of the Captain's seat is the helmsmen and navigator's seat. These key positions are responsible for steering the ship and plotting its course, respectively. The close proximity to the Captain ensures that they can receive direct orders and provide immediate feedback on the ship's status and trajectory. 
 + 
 +At the back of the bridge, to the left, is the Chief Engineer's section. This area is equipped with various controls and monitoring systems related to the ship's engineering and technical operations. The Chief Engineer oversees the performance of the ship's systems, ensuring that everything runs smoothly and efficiently. The position allows the Chief Engineer to quickly address any technical issues that may arise. 
 + 
 +On the opposite side, to the right, is the Head of Security's section. This station is responsible for monitoring the security status of the ship, managing security personnel, and responding to any threats or breaches. The Head of Security's close placement to the Captain ensures that they can coordinate effectively in times of crisis and maintain the safety of the crew and ship.

 +=== Medical Center === 
 +The Mining Guild medical bay follows the New Dusk Conclave standard for medical bays within their star-ships.  They use the same medical techniques and technology that they have at their disposal. Each bed is separated into rooms where the doors can be opened and closed or remain in either state of privacy requirements, the beds themselves are made with the patient's physiology in mind. The medical staff, both organic and synthetic are trained or programmed, to help the personnel of the Mining Guild to the best of their abilities, there’s even an area for the synthetics where they can be repaired. Both are brightly lit, clean and sterile, ready to serve. Whether the patient is organic or synthetic, Human, Separa’shan, Elysian, clone with animal physiology or Gynoid and androids it wouldn’t matter here, the medical staff will treat their patients with respect, and help them recover so that the patient whoever they are can get back to their lives and their work. They also don’t care if the Patient got their injuries from foolery, or if they were attacked, they will be treated the same.

-Engineering room was built with a new power core, and with enough room for it. It’s positioned at the back of the ship, behind the cargo bay, and spans from last three decks vertically in the aft. On the third deck at the back is where the drive system is located, with the bulk of the thrusters seen, closer to the middle is the Engine. The second deck houses electrical, and the AI core, through the AI core. This is on a balcony with the double doors behind the Armory and Research and development. There is a railing to prevent falls, but there were no stairs or ladders to go to the bottom of the engineering area, almost as if the designer specifically made it for those with the ability to fly.+{{  :corp:mining_guild:location:mgmagpieengineer.png?400|}}The engineering room is a state-of-the-art facility, purpose-built to house the new power core and all associated systems. Positioned at the back of the ship, behind the cargo bay, the engineering room spans the last three decks vertically in the aft section of the vessel, ensuring that the power and propulsion systems are centralized and easily accessible for maintenance and operations.
  
-=== Maintenance Conduits === +The third deck at the back of the engineering room is where the drive system is located. This area is crucial, as it contains the bulk of the ship's thrusters, responsible for propelling the vessel through space. These powerful engines are situated closer to the middle of the third deck, optimizing the ship's balance and thrust efficiency. The arrangement allows for direct access to the thrusters, facilitating regular inspections and repairs.
-the Maintenance tunnels are cramped crawl spaces, though fortunately there were a few hatchways that allowed one to exit if the need came to it.  +
  
-=== Medical Center === +On the second deck, the engineering room houses the electrical systems and the AI core. The electrical systems are essential for distributing power throughout the ship, ensuring that all systems receive the necessary energy to function optimally. The AI core, a sophisticated and integral part of the ship's operations, is located here as well. This core is responsible for managing the ship's artificial intelligence, which aids in navigation, system diagnostics, and various automated functions.

-They also don’t care if the Patient got their injuries from foolery, or if they were attacked, they will be treated the same.+The AI core is situated on a balcony-like structure with double doors behind it, which leads to the armory and the research and development (R&D) department. This strategic placement allows for seamless integration between the ship's defense systems, technological advancements, and the AI, ensuring that all components work harmoniously. The balcony provides a vantage point for overseeing the engineering area below, with a railing installed to prevent accidental falls.
  
 +However, there are no stairs or ladders leading from this balcony to the bottom of the engineering area. This unique design choice suggests that the engineering room was intended for crew members with the ability to fly, bypassing the need for conventional access methods. This feature highlights the advanced and specialized nature of the ship, catering to a unique crew with extraordinary capabilities.

 === Passageways === === Passageways ===
-There are multiple passageways throughout the Mobile Refinery, in an almost maze-like fashion that has the potential to make someone lost, unless they had a GPS device with them. There’s a hatch to the maintenance tunnels at every T section that somewhat sometimes aligned with the maintenance tunnel’s T-junction.+{{:corp:mining_guild:location:mgpassages2.png?400  |}}There are multiple passageways throughout the Dragon-class Mobile Refinery, arranged in an almost maze-like fashion that has the potential to disorient and confuse anyone unfamiliar with the layout. Without a ship navigation device, it’s easy to become lost in the labyrinth of corridors. These passageways twist and turn, often leading to dead ends or looping back on themselves. The complexity of the design serves both practical purposes, such as maximizing space and optimizing workflow, and security purposes, ensuring that unauthorized personnel find it difficult to navigate.
  
 +At every T-section within these passageways, there’s a hatch leading to the maintenance tunnels. These hatches are strategically placed, providing access for maintenance crews to perform essential tasks without needing to traverse the main corridors. The maintenance tunnels themselves are a network of narrow passages, designed to house various conduits, pipes, and cables necessary for the refinery's operation. These tunnels also feature their own T-junctions, which, in some cases, align with the T-sections of the main passageways. This alignment, however, is not always perfect, adding another layer of complexity to the refinery’s internal layout.
 +
 +Navigating this intricate system without a ship navigation device can be challenging. The device, often equipped with a detailed map of the ship's layout, helps crew members find their way through the maze of passageways and maintenance tunnels efficiently. Without it, even seasoned crew members might find themselves wandering aimlessly, trying to recall the correct turns and hatches that lead to their destination.
