It's not true that words cannot harm, but everyone here seems to think that "OUR AIS ARE NOT ASIMOV ASIMOV", so I guess it is true here?

Anyway, I don't really see a problem with it, unless it's outright spam. Never understood people who are incredibly annoyed by sounds.

Lo6a4evskiy

That and ban people who make spreading viruses. I don't give two shits that it's positive, I don't want your retarded mix making everyone sneeze at each other for the rest of the round.

What prevents everyone from grabbing best equipment from everywhere though?

Rather than a dev diary, which isnt a bad idea, how about just asking coders to post large changes on the coding board(or make a new "Upcoming Features" board) BEFORE its merged? Isn't that what PRs are for? What's the difference between keeping an eye on PRs or some "diary" thr...

Lo6a4evskiy

Actually, you added a new line in the end where there was none.

Lo6a4evskiy

Hm, that's actually interesting. Leaving hair not directly on the item, like fibers and prints, but on the turf around.

Lo6a4evskiy

I think it's a great idea. Players leaving/joining shouldn't cause too much trouble, access is not that big of a deal. However, I think there should be a clear way to check whether it's true IC. The reason is so that people could distinguish trespassers and people who just got extended access. I don...

Lo6a4evskiy

Indeed. If security chasing you loses line of sight, changing identity as ling and then running in the opposite direction is very powerful. Generic clothing is required, though.

That's incredibly hacky and unnecessary.

Lo6a4evskiy

Well, on bay there are roundstart photos and then you can also update them manually just by inserting regular in-game photos. By the way, I'm not really working on it right now. Kinda busy with other stuff. I'll do it later if nobody else will. EDIT: So I said that and went ahead and did the thing. ...

Lo6a4evskiy

You don't need forensics for detective to be interesting. Asking people about things is a much better investigation tactic. Like, okay, suppose you identify that blunt weapon was used. So what? What now? How is that supposed to help you find the killer? And you won't be able to eliminate anyone you ...

Lo6a4evskiy

Because votes are useless. Also, limiting ourselves to just the ideas listed so far is a bad idea.

Lo6a4evskiy

Frankly, instead of just brainstorming ideas, I think everyone should decide what exactly it is that they want from sleepers. What role do you think they should play, if any?

Balut wrote:The BYOND-crashing pillpiles and stuff are a problem.

Why?

Lo6a4evskiy

I think that sleepers are terrible. They are just broken. They are nothing more than infinite chemical injectors. There is no point in even making them load a person inside, there is nothing about them that makes them SLEEPERS, they're literally JUST infinite chemical dispensers. They're so incredib...

Lo6a4evskiy

Well, it's basically the icon you see in the preferences in the lobby. It's actually in the records already, the one that AI uses for holograms of the crew.

The thing is is, the way they are all constructed is commented as horrendous and godawful everywhere in the code, so there's that.

Lo6a4evskiy

Naked cooks with trays full of food on their belts

Fund it

Lo6a4evskiy

Hm, I'll look into porting it. Should I make it available through HUDs? Seems totally possible (photo being shown on the glass), also I don't think it would be used often otherwise. Updating photos would only be possible via consoles.

Lo6a4evskiy

Don't attach it

Finally seclight won't be a useless burden sitting in my belt and taking up precious space.

Lo6a4evskiy

We don't need the other 49 people to submit fucking essays or just empty quote people they agree with for their opinions to be valid. Yes, we do. Because if someone replies "fuck no", someone will tell them their post is shitty and useless (I can even find examples of that happening) and ...

Lo6a4evskiy

Why would you want to fuck up round probabilities?

Lo6a4evskiy

Its why I cringe whenever I read someone writing about how security should be more friendly, or more role play oriented. Because if you want security to do that, you have to get the antagonists to do that. Being vigilant and careful != being an asshole though. You can be friendly, but not stupidly ...

Lo6a4evskiy

Alternatively, remove the ability to rest while cuffed. You avoid throwing the baby out with the bath water and close a retarded loophole. There you go, makes sense, too. what if being dragged hurt you so resting while cuffed in protest so the officer drags you slower grinds your face against the t...

Lo6a4evskiy

Why would you want jobs that are SUPPOSED to fuck off from the station? People should not be bored of what's going on on the station. If they are, that's a problem, and we should be focusing on fixing it by improving station content, not give people even more excuse to fuck off and be absolutely use...

Lo6a4evskiy

Wuh? You can rest while being dragged by the po-po and stay on your feet while being dragged by your 'rescuers'. Assuming standing results in no slowdown, I mean. Which it should. But it would be bad for the reasons you just stated. Man, 64% said no. Hopefully that'll be enough for the coders to no...

What's there to explore, everything has set coordinates that are known to everybody. Looting is what it is. I hardly think it's useful for anybody.

Lo6a4evskiy

Join as assistants and fuck off from the station, nobody will mind.

Lo6a4evskiy

Actually stealing prisoners will be harder, because you will be slowed down and officer won't be. It will be a much riskier business in any case.

Apparently people think massive clods of dirt materializes as part of stepping on stuff with clean shoes. Uh huh and all humans look like pixelly crap It's a shitty 2D game, can you give it a break? I know it's too much right now, but "oh dirt out of nowhere my immulsions" is a STUPID arg...

Apparently people here think that unless you wear dirty shoes in your house, floors never become dirty

Oh, good, again we have a poll so people can use it as an argument without actually reviewing all pros and cons or the situation in general

Bodies will be just transported in lockers. Security will cry.

I get it, pulling is a huge problem for many things, but fixing it is gonna be HARD.

Lo6a4evskiy

We have 2 janitors now, can they seriously not keep up with the dirty tiles? If not, it's a really simple change to increase the amount of times a tile needs to be walked on before it gets dirty again. It's currently like, 30, I think. Should be a random chance that increases depending on how many ...

Lo6a4evskiy

Yeah, you can always do that as AI.

What's wrong with emagged floorbots and cleanbots?

So... what exactly prevents anyone from making donks behave like all other food? This always seemed like the obvious thing to me.

It doesn't have to be a straight syndiborg, it could be a completely new cyborg module.

Heads of staff have access to the lobby and break room. As for access and authority, I hate when HoP/captain comes at round start, collects half of armory and robs officer lockers, but I also hate it when HoS or, god forbid, warden goes all "RESPECT MAI AUTHORATEY" and stuncuffs heads who ...

HoP actually has full brig access, except for armory and HoS office. That includes permabrig, timers and detective's office.

Lo6a4evskiy

One human laws and the like imply that stating them will harm said humans anyway. If you think that stating the law might be harmful, even though it doesn't explicitly says so, it's valid and actually mandatory not to state said law.

Some individuals in the playerbase should visit github if they don't want to be separated.

It's frustrating and disheartening to hear "because the admins won't do anything" when I ask someone to adminhelp a problem. A lot of things go unreported because of what I believe to be a lack of confidence in admins in general. It's a cultural problem we need to work on collectively. Pe...
