At the beginning of the game, all the tools are stored on the shelves. You have to choose the tools that you will use during the repair process and put them in the player’s inventory. Selected tools will be available in the inventory during the quest.
For example, you will have a drill-driver and riveting tool at your disposal, which work great on jobs requiring precision.

Drill-driver- cordless drill that is mainly used for driving fasteners or screws and removing screws. It is also used for tightening nuts and removing the rivets. The device is equipped with adjustable clutch, that allow you to control the level of torque in order to avoid overdriving a screw or fastener or to prevent damaging delicate parts of the rover.

As you progress through the game, you will be able to upgrade a drill-driver, which will will make your work more effective.

Before driving screws or removing screws you have to choose a drill socket:

• Cross recessed tip socket;

• Flat tip socket;

• Hex socket;

• Hex shank;

You can adjust the sockets to the drill-driver, which allow you to fasten screws of various size. Each socket is available in three different size (small, medium, large). The game itself sets the right socket, and the player just adjusts the size to the compatible screw. Additionally, you will have the drill bit, which will allow you to remove the rivets from parts of the rover.

Riveting Tool - cordless device, that is only used for setting new rivets. It is equipped with one attachment that will allow to set the rivets. In the later stages of the game, you’ll be able to upgrade the tool, which will make your work more precise.

The repair process includes three repairing modes: assembly, disassembly, analysis. In each mode the tools will have different functions, but this is the topic for the future devlog!
