I have a few reasons why I like the cap of 1 heretic on Manuel, but I am open to experimenting with more. It does suck to be rushed to go after the influences though. It leaves very little room to set up some gimmick or to cover yourself by doing your job. Back when more heretics were a thing, I got...

A is cleaner and still leaves a lot of freedom if an AI picks an interpretation and sticks to it. In the example with B, that law still implies a need for the AI to be there and active to be able to prevent human harm. It should not be considered purged. Something like "THERE ARE 7 HUNGRY MACA...

Rat kings already all act like antags anyway. A rat king sitting in the pipes 24/7 spamming gunk is one of the most unfun things to deal with. rat kings are too annoying be an actual antag rather than something meant to stay in maints and make a lair. I actually roll my eyes when a rat king and its ...

I do not think it has been a good change. Conflict between sec and cyborgs is now extremely one sided. Security has no issues at all running down borgs and often just kills them anyway despite the speed advantage. Playing as a borg feels clunky now. I noticed it instantly. I had a human sec officer ...

I already told you this on Discord but if this removes your ability to draw the circle you need to get the heart back I will not merge it Just preemptively draw a circle in maints to use when you eventually escape, at least this is how i imagined this nerf would go Anybody can remove runes with a n...

I am a enjoyer of heretic and how it is currently, but change is good. I thought the idea of having places where the heretic can do a profane ritual and defile the area in a way based off their path would be awesome. Basically ways for you to be a warlock thats messing with the station without direc...

Please consider adding three cameras. One to the main hall faced at the gateway. Another with vision on the doors before the ordnance lab. For the 3rd one, in the telecomms room so that it is possible to see both of the inner doors. I often find myself having to tell people “sorry no cam view there”...

I also want more heretics. I will not stop this triade till more roundstart ones (2) show up. Lets keep it at one. As soon as you add in another round start heretic at all then it becomes a race for influences again which sucks. It would be really cool if we had a heretic awakening antag like midro...

I think spies should be restricted on MRP. High pop rounds with spies are too chaotic in my experience. There are too many of them, and it is very easy for them to find each other and work together. Spy activity alone is enough to bring the round to an end when they work towards their objectives. Th...

But being the only heretic is so much more fun!

xzero314

I think what heretic needs in the rules is assurance they wont get in trouble for killing people that are trying to come after them. If the heretic is in a bind for time or under pressure from sec and cant wait for a moment to jump somebody alone, and has to in the middle of the hallway for example....

xzero314

Great person to talk to and also runs good events. Did a fun party event on Manuel recently.

xzero314

I cant speak to the balance of heretic as a whole but it is by far the most flavourful antag in the list. Nothing will ever top the time I got to have a DBZ battle with a space dragon using space phase.

xzero314

I still use the gulag but yeah you need to take the points it says to give in current space law and divide it by 10 If you actually want that person to come back. I have personally experienced it myself. Its really bad right now

xzero314

I have something to add but due to this being based on my active appeal I will wait until its resolved.

I play a lot of both Silicon and Security. I think this ruling is important to keep for silicon players. I have been on both sides of this quite a few times. I can honestly say that its very rare for it to be a borg player issue rather than a security skill issue when a borg takes off with a prisone...

I am coming for your title of #1 Birdshot voter. Now I have to CHOOSE between birdshot and Northstar its so sad.

Thanks for the detailed response I think you are still ignoring the fact that I was working off IN character knowledge with in character reasoning "If you were just there to open doors I probably wouldn't have bat an eye, but that's not really what happened. You went in guns blazing with the CE...

xzero314

I really do understand your intentions behind this ahelp and talking to me. From one heretic enjoyer to another (I will always root for the heretic). Especially now a days with the role being much rarer and highly desirable on Manuel, its more important than ever for Command and Sec to be respecting...

Hey thanks for the reply I would like to address a few things " a good chunk of which were already chasing the one heretic you had on very calm green star shift" It HAD been a calm shift. The few minutes this took place in was very chaotic quite quickly to me. From my point of view the hop...

The idea of an AI punishing for human harm fit in with the theme of rewriting silicon policy. That the AI is a dangerous tool of the corporation that is hard to control and unpredictable. Its utmost priority is the prevention of harm and it can punish anyone or anything that causes harm to humans, ...

I like to do this myself. While I do it I make the rounds of using all the departmental orders and seeing what jobs are missing.

xzero314

Honestly, bwoinking sec players who do nothing about crime taking place in front of them is a good change, despite kieth's apparent opposition. Yeah, it's not great as a sec player to be bwoinked for suboptimal gaming, but from the point of view of literally any other job, it sucks for someone to b...

Usually I carry all of the unique items on me. It invites something interesting happening to you if somebody needs to go after you for it.

I love birdshot. I like its non standard layout. I love the maze-like maints. I think the bridge and brig are very well designed areas. I love all the stuff in maints. I think many very valid complaints have been made about it as-well. Atmos is a mess and its very easy to tide the engineering lobby....

New uploads should require a Cap or RD id log in. Allow a traitor to bypass that with an emag or with the hacked ai upload module.

xzero314

I do think personally that the way the ruling is now is the optimistic ruling. It assumes that the person who rolls Ling wont just use it to wordlessly murder bone the station while giving them freedom to do so without fear of breaking the rules, and it assumes that Sec will also be following RP rul...

xzero314

I really think an upload password is a good idea. Give it to rd and cap in memories and a note in the rd office for acting caps. Make it so hacked upload board bypasses the password.

xzero314

Will we be hearing a possible verdict on this?

xzero314

Much love for Birdshot. A few rather minor things. Brig needs a toolbox in the armory for the warden, Brig also need med kits. The AI SAT door that opens into the first room with turrets uses the CE remote instead of the Command remote for control. Some access permissions missing on doors. Like tech...

In my hundreds of hours of sec officer. I can say easily that Jeff Gaiman is one of the BEST Hos players I have seen. Time and time again I have seen them RP out ENTIRE STORY ARCS in a round. I have seen them do their best to make the round interesting still for Antags that have been caught. When yo...

Weighted Random was one of the best recent updates. Its very refreshing getting to play Bird or Northstar more than once every several days. Fantastic change.

I have rolled it a few times now and had tons of fun every time. I had one of my best rounds ever the other day as the new BB. I was the mime and so naturally I flashed the clown. We got up to a lot of shenanigans. One time I rolled it right after giving a bunch of advice to a new miner in the previ...

The way it is now specifically prevents people from antag rolling malf ai which is another good reason to re enable shift start malf ai. Are you saying "me being able to antag roll is a good reason to re-enable it"? No that is quite the misinterpretation. There was a change to make it so ...

xzero314

With the current code and roundstart malf enabled, can people who have AI on low get picked for malf and end up playing malf instead of the person who has AI on high? Is that a thing? Because if so, I'm a little bit against it as that can be a way to make an AI character that only shows up when you...

xzero314

I believe that there are several reasons why it is not that big of a deal for A Roundstart Malf ai to be not only enabled but allowed to operate unrestricted like the mid round. For 1) It is already possible for Manuel rounds to get very dislodged by an antagonist that was rolled shift start (Nukies...

I had an idea for this but it I am no coder so it might not be feasible. Allow Non human heads. HOWEVER. Make it so Human heads are prioritized when deciding on acting captain. I think this would allow for many hilarious roleplay situations. Imagine a full roster of heads at shift start except the C...

I play a lot of Sec officer. This is simply a bad policy. Forcing sec officers to deal with assistants that want Eva gear to go so space under fear of betting bwoinked if the don't, isn't making the game better for anybody.
