# '''Check your fit.''' Link the guns, load scripts and ammo, check that you have drones if you have a dronebay. Load nanite paste into any ancillary armour repairers, and cap booster charges into any ancillary shield boosters. Check for the presence of any combat drugs if relevant to your fit. If the fit worked in simulation but is over on powergrid or CPU in practice, check whether the rigs are mounted. If they are not mounted, they will be in the cargo hold; put them on. If you have used this particular hull before, check that it is repaired and that you still have enough ammo.

# '''Insure your ship.''' Tech 1 hulls have good insurance payouts which cushion you from serious loss. Tech 2 ships often don't yield much in insurance, but it is at least some repayment for the loss.

# '''Rename your ship.'''~~<br>~~The default ship name are "<Player's Name> <Ship Name>". This makes it much easier for enemies to identify and locate you when scanning, so you should rename it to something that will not be able to associate the ship to your name. Some specific University campuses have set naming conventions, and some FCs will issue orders for fleet-specific conventions.

# '''Final pre-undock checks.''' Your FC might well remember to run through these, but whether or not they do, think "RRAPPIDD": Rigs, Repairs, Ammo, Paste, Pod (clean clone), Insurance, Drones, Drugs.
