====== Miner Undersuit ======
The Miner Under suit is a special suit for [[corp:mining_guild:power_armors:ant|ANT Power Armor]] used by the [[corp:mining_guild:start]].
===== History =====
In [year 1] When creating their **[[corp:mining_guild:power_armors:ant|ANT Power Armor]]** for simple digging work, the [[corp:mining_guild:]] became worried about it being stolen or used for evil, and they were concerned with the control of the Power Armor. The second concern was for **Bathroom Accidents**((in terms of not making it)). So they began working on a suit that would prevent concerns from happening.  Alongside the Power Armor, the Undersuit was also introduced, and given to Miners as part of their standard equipment. 
As time passed, some updates to the suits like the use of AR tech to allow miners some semblance of customization came to be. In addition, the focus on comfort and usefulness over style was also made, despite the use of AR though.

Later on during an expedition to Crystaria in search of ice to be made into water. The extreme conditions and hazardous environment posed significant risks to miners.  They knew that there had to be multiple planets as extreme as that, so they went back to the drawing board and in collaboration with leading scientists, engineers, and mining experts, the Undersuit in particular was designed to protect miners and enhance their operational capabilities in these hostile settings.

Since its initial release in [year 1], the Undersuit has undergone multiple iterations and updates, driven by advancements in materials science, robotics, and safety regulations. Each update focused on improving durability, increasing mobility, enhancing thermal insulation, and integrating the latest control systems technology.

Then in [year 2], had a recent update to both the Power Armor, as well as Undersuit,  incorporating Geist updates, HUD system improvements, and new glove-mounted controls. These updates further improved miner safety, efficiency, and situational awareness during mining operations. The Mining Guild continues to invest in research and development to ensure the continued use of both the ANT power armor, and the undersuit remains in use, and exhibiting mining safety and technology.

===== Design =====
The Undersuit, is designed to allow for the connection and control of a [[corp:mining_guild:power_armors:ant|ANT Power Armor]], first and foremost, but the Miner’s comfort was of equal importance.  To that end It was designed with a similar appearance to that of a [[wp>drysuit]]
