I don't think I've seen any miner interested of doing botany. As for R&D parts, it's as Alex said.

Erbbu

Remove and replace with meaningful rooms is what I meant. Here's a question for you; What is a meaningful room? 1) A room that contains a robust item? 2) A room that contains something that would disrupt the standard round? 3) A room that has a massive gamechanging object? If it's 1, do we really n...

This is most useful with the AI. Captains tend to want to be called just captains though.

So Shoe Snatchin' Willy was a griefer?

No I was referring to Anon3's idea, seeing if I understood it right.

That change was the pinnacle of autism. No actually what was worse was the commit that we can't eat through masks anymore.

Oh there's a great use for a smuggler's bag. Added to my notes. Title: "Smuggler Surprise".

Erbbu

I like the cards idea. It still would be a terrible item powergaming wise but you could still kill some unrobust scrublord with it.

Erbbu

I told you it works.

An automated 1 week job ban for rolling an important job, checking for antag and suiciding when you didn't get it? I know some people would just choose to take the ban just have a roll at that sweet engi/atmos/scientist/etc. antag.

Erbbu

I am more than up for some change. Having mining actually on the station z-level could mean that it gets done more often.

Erbbu

Honestly I would like to see some other way to roll antag than just by having some lucky dice. Like perhaps have the RNG roll plus a token system that guarantees that you will get it in a reasonable time even if unlucky.

Erbbu

Just removing the boring rooms entirely would be a good place to start.

Erbbu

Typically a given miner will find maybe 1-2 of these treasure rooms. When you dig in only to find some 2beard wine, a replica katana, a pair of laced shoes or something equally as useless, it's a pretty big downer. Mining is unrewarding as it is, I suggest we only keep the artifact rooms with meanin...

No people literally ejected themselves out of my torture chamber in a round I had today. Most of them did it too late and already had 20 units of plasma and neurotoxin in their bloodstream though. They don't get knocked out either unless you inject them with something that does that.

Erbbu

Splashing yourself with space lube should make it harder for people to grab you. In addition hitting rest while running while space lubbed let's you pull off a sick ass high speed power slide. > escape is a raging inferno > emergency shuttle leaves in 10 seconds > POWER SLIDE THROUGH THE INFERNO ON...

Erbbu

Someone pressed the meteor button once too many.

Erbbu

I guess you died in that one round by me kidnapping you in my torture chamber of an Ody. Anyway I kind of just trusted people not knowing that they could eject out of it.

Erbbu

I'm all for surgery being a major point in playing a MD. Them starting with a good amount of cyborg parts for augs in the surgery room would be great, with more available by having the roboticists cooperate. Also augs could be fleshed out to have additional functionality down the line.

Erbbu

Honestly the detective seems to me kind of useless anyway as far as forensic work goes. Perhaps he should get an additional way of identifying criminal suspects rather than just by fibers/fingerprints.

Erbbu

Yeah but then the borg can just manually make a door. Not like they use that feature much anyway outside of AI defense.

Erbbu

Who even buys a voice changer, ever? Totally for buffing this item.

Agreed. Make unpowered bolted doors unboltable and remove door creating from borg RCDs, maybe?

Erbbu

I wish drones could push things. Also being able to generate metal would be cool. I didn't want to steal any department's metal so I went out of my way to mine some, only to have it stolen by some engineer. Of course I couldn't just steal it back because that would break law 1.

Erbbu

Now that space is annoyingly slow you can space a ling and probably keep him out of the station for the rest of the round. That is assuming he didn't pick the spacesuit and is unable to respec. It's a pretty good option when you can't gib the corpse for whatever reason.

Erbbu

Now that you mention it I would like the old more robust hand teleporter as well, myself.

Erbbu

Honestly there's something wrong with telescience when you need stuff like this to be efficient at it. Anyway since this is the telescience we have this calculator is great. Good work!

Erbbu

Fires will usually burn themselves out so fast that there's little point in even fighting them. Station wrecking plasma fires are pretty rare and if you're in one with a Firefighter you probably can't do much to help anyway.

Erbbu

Honestly what sucks is that not only is mining not rewarding but science often doesn't get their cool toys because of it. Perhaps we should just be done with mining. A heavy emphasis on cooperation tends to lead into more frustration than what it's worth. Also it's funny how this thread became from ...

Erbbu

Chemists can fill the cryo with a more effective fix. And that's about it.

There's some other cool stuff but it needs people to cooperate which often does not happen.

The best rounds are where you don't have to be super duper careful about killing the wrong guy because if you do you'll get bwoinked and then banned.

I think it was fun. Bugged, but fun.

Erbbu

I just wish access to some things did not entirely depend upon one guy feeling like helping me out or me rolling the right job at round start. I think the machines that currently require access should be hackable, like the robotics or R&D ones. Even if we force HoPs to git gud there will always ...

Nobody really cares about dead assistants now that they don't even mean free maint access.

I ran at a ridiculously low resolution, booted in windowed, and alt entered to make it fullscreen. It still takes a while but it doesn't brick my rig.

Alrighty. Doesn't that make the game look awful though?

Erbbu

I mean, there is a point where saying I died several times to this please nerf becomes valid. See old TK.

Erbbu

It's funny how sometimes people threaten to lynch me because their nigh-immortality also causes them to sneeze.

Erbbu

How did you fix the freezes, dezzmont? Perhaps I had the same problem.

Erbbu

Unplayable for me. Slideshow fps with a computer that runs other games fine.

Erbbu

No finding out where you're hurt should be arduous and clumsy.

Just kidding of course, I'm all for a better UI.

Erbbu

Yeah agreed with Steelpoint, that is pretty silly.

Erbbu

I suggested something similar a year or so ago. Generally people posting in the thread liked the idea but no one wanted to code it.

Erbbu

Not sure why we don't have one of these anymore.

I'll start: What are some good uses for the camera bug?

Erbbu

I agree that double agents is bad but not sure if this is the fix.

The fireball game is surprisingly intricate after you get a hang of it. Spacing, which version to use, what to look out for, when not to use another fireball and so on are all important. Likewise when trying to get in on a zoner you need to mix up your methods of getting around fireballs not to be p...

I'm echoing the slippery slope and ambiguity sentiments. Also I find a single guy killing everyone impressive and one the reasons this game is so much fun. If something totally OP let that guy do what he did I would just rebalance it rather than punish the murderboner-er. Old TK was a good example o...
