FIELD NOTE / 01

Role handoff

The recorded co-op roles are loadout (equipment readiness), haul (moving value), anti-Rot watch (catching symptoms early) and spotter (route and threat calls). Use short callouts for who is moving loot, who is checking forward and who is keeping the elevator approach clear. Reassign immediately after a vessel loss.

Crew rhythm

Move in pulses: scout a room, stabilize it, transfer value, then decide whether to extend. This prevents the carrier from becoming the accidental front line.
