"Pull yourselves together, everyone. Today's achievements certainly deserve a celebration, but once the celebration is over, we still have to keep moving forward."

The Recorder opened the test records and reorganized the data from the initial tests, along with the problems they had uncovered.

The master craftsmen gathered around the Wallwalker again and began deciding on improvements and priorities for the next stage.

Overall, this round of testing had been a success. Its structural integrity and protective capabilities under extreme conditions had met their intended targets, proving that the Wallwalker's overall design approach was sound.

At the same time, however, the tests had revealed quite a few areas that needed improvement.

For instance, mud tended to accumulate in the tracks while the vehicle operated under load, so the clearing mechanism needed optimization. The rear load-bearing structure had approached its limit when towing heavy supplies. There was also room to improve the left armor plate's response to impacts and the protective membrane's recovery speed after its patterns overloaded.

"Record every one of these problems. They all need to be resolved before the next test," Lorenz said.
