As you sim with us you'll continuously learn how to improve the content that sites between the symbols. The [[USS Columbia]] SIM format corresponds closely with that used in the academy and detailed in [http://www.starbase118.net/cadets/training-area/ the Tutorial Library], Tutorials 1-6. | ||

We might be doing a set mission (a task assigned to the ship by Starfleet Command), something more free-form such as dealing with a dramatic event aboard the ship, or taking some shore leave. No matter what we're doing, your character should have something to do to contribute, even if this contribution isn't at the forefront of the action.

This is where your creativity as a writer comes in, but if you are ever feeling lost or in doubt, ask somebody! The Commanding Officer, First Officer and your mentor are all there and will happily bounce some ideas around with you. | ||
