plotting & ideas for clinic, medical supply and food supply stuff

Hi Exsilium!
So this here is sort of a tentative plotting/planning/organising/brainstorming thing for supply runs and clinic stuff, just so we can work out ways to get the Transports working together and being kind of cohesive and maybe also just avoid OOC confusion.

Since there have been a few posts and conversations across different posts and everything to do with getting the moon base running smoothly maybe everyone can chuck ideas in here and just... yes.

I did this post with Donny about the clinic and supply runs that fed off Ashraf's post from a bit earlier. (trying to be useful, yeah!)
Mostly it was just concerned with getting the clinic set up and making sure that there are sufficient medical supplies, etc for the clinic and food supplies so that those things are less of a concern and everyone can focus on Saving Exsilium (!!!) and all that kind of stuff.

Some of the ideas that came up were:

- setting up the clinic for max capacity and just being well run etc etc
- making up mini emergency first aid packs for each transport to keep on them at all times, since things have a tendency of Very Suddenly Going To Hell. These could also get handed out to newbies on arrival (idk like next to the cookie tent or something)
- first aid training and simulation (using the VR room potentially)
- possibly seeing if magic users can teach other magic users healing things?
- acquiring back-up generators for the clinic (and training a few people how they work/repair etc in case of emergencies)
- a supply run roster so that people know when runs are happening/what is being grabbed and making sure things never run too low (in theory a system that can keep running even if characters disappear because it's a set rotation and people can just jump in)
- obtaining treatment information for non-human species (what works, what doesn't work, what would work on a human but horribly effect a non-human etc)

And then there were also some ideas about obtaining a lot of stuff that can be stored for a long time, hunting and curing meat, obtaining fresh produce etc. Because... hooray food! And if they are rostering medicine/equipment forages they can do the same for food stuff I guess.

Obviously this is a project for many people, and potentially a kind of awesome way to kick-start CR and everything! I figure other characters and conversations between characters would yield even more awesome ideas. I'm going to put up comments for each of the above points so people can chuck in ideas or whether their character would be interested in particular things. Feel free to chuck in other options as well. This is by no means the way it has to be!!! or anything like that, but it seems like a potential starting point and place to get stuff figured out and help characters feel like they are taking action/there is actually some organisation happening, and so on.

YES. OKAY. LET US PLOT SOME THINGS?

EDIT: plotting can continue here, but to make things easier I have set up [personal profile] moonbaseclinic so it is easier to sign up and see who is working there, access IC contact pages etc etc. There is an ideas/suggestion page over there and stuff.
