; [[IVA]] : Intra-Vehicular Activity. Consists of moving around the interior of the Habitat in full EVA equipment. This is generally rendered necessary by environmental leaks or depressurization.
 
; [[TCS]] : The Tachyon Communication System, our faster-than-light communication system; it does not need relays (i.e. TDRS satellites) due to its fundamental nature. Is composed of the TCU (Tachyon Control Unit) and TCER (Tachyon Control Emission and Reception) which are the Habitat and Mission Control devices, respectively. Tachyon collector dishes are used for reception. This system is not ideal, since it stretches the believability of the simulation, and several methods for creating time delays are currently under consideration. It may be replaced by the more-believable [[IEST]].

The OCESS Procedure Manual provides a set of guidelines for the actions of the Astronauts and Mission Control during any mission.

This manual may be used for both training and in-mission reference, although it is primarily designed for pre-mission training.

Familiarity

It is expected that all Mission participants will be familiar with the procedures for the station they are manning, as well as all of the Emergency Procedures. Certain mission roles will require greater familiarity with the procedures than others, and the degree to which one must be familiar with the procedures is noted in the procedures for each position.
