I don't really like this poll because everyone has their own assumption on what bagil would be doing during all this. I still think a dedicated box server and a variety server is the best way to get the best of both worlds here. People craving change get change, people craving consistency get consi...

Luke Cox

It was a fun round.

Luke Cox

Three could be a little much, I agree. Two should be manageable though, and the benefits outweigh the inconvenience. Both Box and Meta are pretty well maintained.

>luke cox still does not know how chem implants are unreliable I know, you can remove them surgically or counteract the effects of the chloral. I've been considering switching to another toxin and telling them it's still chloral. Sometimes, if they seem especially sketchy, I'll pop in a tracking im...

Luke Cox

One tiny gripe, why is there no means to pump a burn mix directly into the turbine from the atmos mix chamber?

Luke Cox

That's not because people liked meta though, that's because people were bored with the same old same old. This isn't exactly rocket science, here the grass is always greener. ANY map would have won against box in that circumstance, it's not something anyone should be using as "justification of...

These are my personal guidelines for playing HoS If somebody commits a minor to moderate crime and there is no evidence that they're an antag, they are brigged accordingly If somebody is caught with suspicious items (cable restraints, stun prods, potentially dangerous items they shouldn't have), the...

With Metastation being run on Sybil yesterday, there's been a lot of discussion on replacing box with meta, having a poll in the lobby, or having the map randomly selected. I've yet to see a comprehensive poll on this, so I thought it would be a good idea to make one.

Luke Cox

Or we could just have a server that always runs box and one that shuffles between. This is the best idea So box on basil, shuffle on sybil. Or the other way around. Why should the solid high pop server have to be changed? Because when we voted on it Meta won alomst 3:1 for a good number of the vote...

you're completely correct, box isn't bad at all. It's just so. stale.

There are a finite number of things you can do with a single map. Every traitor tactic is known, and how to counter it. There's never any surprise.

Of course. This could be stated on the lobby status screen.

Luke Cox

It's not a bad map but nothing but Box does get stale after a while.

Luke Cox

Both box and meta are good in different ways. No reason we can't run both.

Luke Cox

If Paprika is banned for being an asshole, this guy shouldn't be allowed to touch codebus with a 50 foot pole.

Luke Cox

We had both box and meta on rotation on Sybil today, and I actually really liked it. It could use a little more decluttering, but all in all it felt like a much more realistic station. Either make it 50% chance to be box/50% meta or have automatic round-end votes. They're both great maps and there's...

Luke Cox

If you're worried about the AI and traitors, give the traitors more items to help it beat the AI. Getting rid of the AI is a retarded idea.

Luke Cox

Just need to make damage scale with firestacks, vary the amount of fire stacks given by differetn sources, and DONT LET PEOPLE SPREAD FIRE WHEN THEY ONLY HAVE 1 STACK. I like this idea. Stacks start at a set number depending on the source, and increase gradually. You wouldn't be engulfed in flame t...

Speaking of Ministation, what kind of state is it in at the moment? Shouldn't it be the default map on Bagil given the lower population? It's unworkable and should be scrapped and rebuilt from the ground up. It may be "mini" but it works pretty horribly and makes really poor use of the sm...

Buying adrenal+esword+revolver and going apeshit every round wouldn't really be interesting. Unstunnable murderboner isn't much better than falling asleep. Oh cmon you gotta at least give me a plausible OP scenario. Revolver + esword + adrenal is functionally identical to revolver+adrenal and that'...

Luke Cox

There aren't any small maps to play currently. We should put a sticky or something asking for small ~20ish player maps. It'd give an opportunity to everyone who wanted to get into mapping to give it a shot too without the task of making a gigantic 50 person station. How up to date is Ministation? 2...

Luke Cox

Hope this isn't too old to bump. What if smaller maps automatically played if the population is below a certain number?

I think as long as the retaliation is on par with what they did, it's perfectly acceptable.

That makes no fucking sense. Isn't it less harmful for somebody to be in a state where they can be healed rather than dead?

Being in crit is a lot less harmful than being dead.

People who scream "HELP" when being arrested Or "HALP SEC MURDERIN ME," when you're trying to ask them questions. Fuckin grayshirts. Or when they try to get the AI involved. When that happens, their headset is gone immediately and they earn an additional 3 minutes on their sente...

Jumping off the zombie powder, I'd like to inject somebody with enough zombie powder to keep them out for a long time, and then cremate/space them alive in the chapel, public funeral and all.

Luke Cox

Does sec fall under this policy? If not that's fucking lame. Try contacting the HoS first, then the Captain. Personally, if people consistently complain about an officer I'll demote them immediately. Security is a little different because their job gives them the authority to interfere with other p...

That's the challenge of abductor. You have to choose your targets very carefully or you will get fucked hard. Even a disarm with a baton in your hand can be devastating.

Luke Cox

I don't see why Ayyliens killing people is a problem. I always strip sec officers that I abduct to whittle away at the sec force. Killing things that get in your way is perfectly reasonable. If your first move is anything but killing the AI, you are a shit tier abductor. The only restriction that I ...

Could we get a concrete statement from the admins stating what is considered acceptable retaliation? Will I be banned if I give somebody plastic surgery, a failed sex change, and give them brain damage, so long as I don't actually kill them? Because I'm getting mixed signals on whether that's accept...

Luke Cox

I'd rather the codebus focus on ways to improve the singularity than outright scrap it. Or better yet, set things up so engineering can choose from multiple power sources, such as the TEG, singularity, supermatter engine, etc.

Killing people for shaving you? My god you people are uncreative. This sort of thing is what the maintenance surgery room and cable restraints were made for.

If they're just being minor shits, I'll brig on the first three offenses, then perma. If they're causing minor to moderate damage, same as before but implants on the second brig. If they're causing irreparable damage (we're talking department-breaking), crit or kill somebody intentionally I'll perma...

Chasms! These function similar to lava in that they kill you if you fall into them or are thrown into them, but don't emit light or heat. It's possible that these will function as new cavern entrances in the future, if you have the method of safely descending into them. And don't worry about these ...

Luke Cox

This seems to be pretty balanced and a generally good way to buff traitors. Gives them a greater array of tools at the cost of having to commit to one strategy, or at least use their tools more creatively if things go south.

Luke Cox

Objectives should be stuck to the station alone. No mucking about with the derelict or you'll have important crew fucking off to it. I wouldn't mind derelict objectives so long as they aren't too common. You already have a hard cap on how many people can fuck off to derelict because of the need for...

ScaredOfShadows is gone again, probably for good this time. He's no longer host either.

Not quite a traitor idea, but a "probably pushing the line of acceptable behavior" idea: As a captain, I want to execute prisoners exclusively by strangling them to death with my bare hands. This is absolutely fine. Captain has the right to execute capital criminals, despite any bleeding ...

Teleporter is bad, either you're putting the receiving beacon somewhere where sec would have to then take the prisoner to the actual prison area (which has the problems of: a. the prisoner would be free of your grip as soon as you shove them in the teleporter, requiring you to stun them first; b. t...

Then what's the point of a prison station if we're just going to extend perma out by about 20 meter's? I'm not talking 20 meters.

Would teleporter-based access be more ideal than using a shuttle? I imagine security would just turn all their prisoners into fly-people for shits and giggles. Also, move the old voidsuits from the abandoned telesat to the new prison station. That way if you see anyone in them you it's a red flag f...
