In addition it helped improve their food production by providing information on aquaculture to harvest algae. With Richter's help, the Community was able to allow create a civilization on the Slab.

During a routine patrol outside Aden was captured by the Rovers, who disabled his Richter, destroying it. Later another Richter was found in an emergency shuttle discovered by Aden. In the battle between the Rovers and the Community, Aden order Richter to pilot his shuttle to the Skyladder, crashing into it and disabling the Rovers.
