I did a rnd bugfix and turned the bug from a half-bug that didn't really affect gameplay that badly to a full-blown bug that made research intolerable

kevinz000

implants are quite powerful actually if you know how to use them but whatever. there needs to be different sizes/classes of circuits. bitflags determine which chassis type it is and which ones components fit in. not all circuits should allow weapons, and therefore not all of them should be automatic...

kevinz000

OOC should not be used as a recourse to tell players in the round to do anything. Using subterfuge to do it by "informing nobody in particular" how to do the thing you are really just asking somebody to do should likewise not be acceptable. Just don't do it. Players in round can choose to...

kevinz000

forced roleplay is bad roleplay.
i'm all for better rp though and no one else has a better idea probably so whatever.

kevinz000

Right I was going to do some major balancing of my own to buff processing circuits and nerf manipulation circuits like thrower but I have way too much shit to be doing it right now since I can't even get the time out of my day to MAKE a circuit except when I'm doing it to test circuits because I'm s...

kevinz000

yeah it's terrible but encouraging validhunting with capturing antags to get points (you know tg players care about points a whole lot more than they should.) isn't the right answer.

kevinz000

Security is fun for me because I'm helping make the round not a shitfest and solve disputes between players. That's the reward. Or you just like the role, I guess.

No.

kevinz000

Arresting and capturing antags are both ultimately hunting antags. Security should not be encouraged to do that more than they are now (I'd say there's enough encouragement.)

kevinz000

Security already validhunts hard enough, giving them more encouragement to take out antags is not what you should be doing. Taking out antags lethally or via capture is not what security exists solely for. If you want security to be more interesting make combat more interesting, not give them points...

Terrible idea do not ever reward people for hunting antags, for kill or capture both.

kevinz000

You have to set job weights in the code iirc. As for the feature itself, I think it's perfectly fine with the understanding admins have full authority to roleban people who aren't doing the job proper. Does this ever happen? Will this ever happen? Unless the new headmin team is radically different ...

yes done by a few people with the knowledge to, with the rest of the players just copying. also i've seen complaints of round times being too short to do techwebs my response is: It was originally 90 minutes to max without any kinds of boosts Then it got buffed to 60 minutes to max without any kinds...

kevinz000

Because not every play style needs to be catered to and antag rolling is one of those play styles. but the system doesnt even necessarily punish people who just go assistant to roll antag because they can still roll antag, it just encourages them to steal head roles because that gives them an even ...

kevinz000

Do not ever encourage security to arrest/hunt antags they do that well enough.

you are the last person we are going to take advice from lol be nice to yakumo..... In all seriousness maybe we should give science more to do other than toxins circuits and xenobio and the occasional mech, and make it actually scientific. The most scientific thing is toxins right now and I guess c...

kevinz000

Right, no. This gives head of staff and ai players up to 2x roll chance. Yes, hos/sec/captain can't roll head positions, but the other heads and the ai definitely can and I don't think higher chances of some of the most powerful roles getting more antag rolls is a good thing. Also i don't want the a...

Engineering is meant to be able to print all circuits and stock parts.
I'll try to assign departments to everything still, though, but Engi still can use everything.

Actually, it's the janitor's fault most of the time. The station feels really shitty when it's just fucken filthy everywhere. Yeah, you may clean the floors up from all the blood and grease, but what about all the actual items and trash that are just left everywhere? The station often feels more ru...

Paprika did nothing wrong with the code.
