Tightening one's carapace is an action that takes one standard turn length, doubling the AV bonus the carapace gives (at the base level, this will add an additional 3 AV); however, most non-mental actions (e.g. moving, attacking, using Sting or applying injectors; oddly, beginning sprinting is excluded from this) and some mental actions (including but not limited to use of Teleportation) will loosen the carapace, as will waiting more than one turn.
