Central Command refers to NanoTrasen's administrative body and leadership. In practicality, Central Command is used to explain a number of off-station events and systems. Server Administrators may frequently take the persona of Central Command to facilitate interacting with the crew in a way that is not out-of-character.
There are three main roles that regular players can take that are part of Central Command, those being the NanoTrasen Representative, Magistrate, and Internal Affairs Agent. These roles, while being part of Central Command, are not to be treated as Admins which are actually Central Command.
Scope
Most random station events are detected by Central Command resulting in a notification to the entire station of the event. Some events are caused directly by Central Command, though practically there is little difference. As administrators often take the persona of Central Command, they may be used as an in-character way to dispatch outside assistance or events to the station. These can be:
- Helpful, like an Emergency Response Team (ERT) to address particular issues.
- Benign, like party supplies being dropped in the bar.
- Extremely dangerous, like a Death Squad, Nuclear Operatives, anomalies, a crate of rabid bears, pretty much anything you can think of.
Long-range fax machines can be used to communicate directly with Central Command, which translates into an in-character way to make a request of currently online administrators. Conversely, Central Command can send faxes to the crew which may contain important instructions, warnings, or other information that should be heeded.
"CentCom" or "CentComm" is a frequently-used abbreviation to refer to Central Command.
Central Command are the overseers of the Nanotrasen Space Station and are comprised of server Administrators. Slang for Central Command is 'CentCom'.
Crew can refer to 'centcom' or 'central command' IC to refer to administrators. Crew are not supposed to refer to 'administrators' IC, but instead can via OOC if need-be.
