Could we please avoid yet another flamewar? On the other hand, this IS fucking hilarious. While ze internet is the best way of supplying AI with lots of information, you expose it to the parts of humanity you would much rather have swept under the rug. It's a wonder Cleverbot hasn't shared her fate,...

Ok, another one as tator scientist: Get Chaplain to bless you 3 watertanks Get yourself a few max-upgraded chem dispensers Get an autolathe Print 20 bluespace beakers Fill 10 with potassium, 10 with holy water Print 10 remote signaller/igniter combos Make 10 grenade casings Make 10 grenades Trade yo...

Jazaen

Well, your army would have one critical weakness. If you can print all of those upgrades, R&D is most likely done, and someone could mix 300u Uranium and Iron in bluespace grenade to EMP your day. Besides, sec is the most flash-heavy force on-station. For me, eh, I guess replacing people that co...

BYOND mapmaker is cancer. Most BYOND things are, to be honest.

Jazaen

Kind of. Now, for less work-intensive events (these shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to set up, maybe with the exception of 3) 1: 1# Give crew very very very important object (and send announcement detailing what will happen when they loose it), change all traitor objectives to "Steal or des...

Jazaen

Well, we would have to balance it pretty hard. And some things (say, bluespace beakers) would need to be placed into more populated trees, or they would never get researched by non-tators.
But it can be done, and would be pretty awesome.

Jazaen

Okay, another event idea (and minor thread necromancy): 0# Set up a small, pressurized area on the derelict. 1# Send crew centcom announcement that station will soon <INSERT EXPLANATION HERE. Maybe go through warp, or something?>, and it will become a literal hellhole. 2# Set up teleport to derelict...

Jazaen

Yes, but then in the new one they used le magic acid to kill le magic alloy robot. Maybe just make exosuits immune to lingering fire damage, so that they do take lava damage when they touch it but won't have fire on them after that. Speaking of the glulag, give them some firesuits, and fix it. Sec n...

Jazaen

Well, it kind of removes a sub-department this way. Maybe import market in some way, or add some other way of making it faster. So far all departments reward people for knowing how to do them, in some way. This would basically make R&D a bit like the tesla engine (set it and forget it) only this...

Jazaen

Well, most of the station is probably in ruins, and crew is dead/lavaland/relocated-to-derelict

Jazaen

I don't think its possible to recontain a loose singularity. A tesla ball on the other hand is possible, considering it doesn't destroy the containment pen. I think you can BoH it, and if you get it to stage one you could theoretically build second containment around it. WHY would you want to do it...

Jazaen

And you couldn't Law 2 AI into doing anything to it, since killing it relases harm. Hell, even ordering it to stop one killing humans on the basis of Law 1 is a gray area. Still, a neat idea. Just keep it from being too decisive, since having 10 plasmamen onboard that when die make parts of the stat...

It's not like synths pass the turing test, it's more like our assistants CAN'T pass it.

Hm, what is the upper limit to ZLevel size?

I think bagil is better, mainly because Sybil is mostly composed of unrepentant Box lovers. Making it run on it would only make large part of them go to bagil.

Jazaen

Well, bagil is ded, so it would be a good time to do it.

Jazaen

The problem is that it will confuse the HECK out of some people, especially new ones.
The plus is that it will confuse the HECK out of some people, especially new ones.

Jazaen

Hm, maybe this is NT illegal money printing operation. It could save the number of printed coins across stations, and if across set number of shifts someone prints the set number of money SOMETHING happens (Space Feds raid station?)
And yes, I realize the griff potential.

Yup, suicide. I think one of you headbanned him. Maybe. Then again, my memory is pretty bad when it comes to details.

Jazaen

Same people that power it with a literal black hole. Or, if you believe it to be "Bluespace singularity" instead of "gravitational singularity", and unexplained bluespace phenomenon that ACTS like a black hole.

Jazaen

You forgot two: 0.1 AI is traitor, but it helps sec. It will remain this way until in a fit of madness it reveals itself to a red valid-hunting tide or someone discovers it. 0.0 AI is a traitor and station is currently being flooded with plasma and is ravaged by: borgs, singularity, tesla, xenos rel...

Doesn't panic bunker work on unknown Ckeys? We don't want people to think we run this 24/7.

Jazaen

Shortest rev round ever.

Jazaen

It makes sense to remove Floaters though, since they were refined into Archons,
Ethereals, well, there are reasons why not, but it would still make sense to have some of them still in.

Jazaen

Perma them, don't talk about the execution on sec channel, get RD over PDA to change AIs laws, ahelp if it doesn't let the head (possibly with another head as a guarantor) into the upload. Then execute.

Jazaen

Still, this gives an alternative to roundstart suicide - even smallest chance of getting an antag (say, 20% antag, 60% (or 80%) gibs, 20% (or 0%) chance of demon info) will make it an equivalent of rushing rev carrying a flash or asking shadowling for conversion, since person that wants to do it doe...

Turn corpses into your servants (player-controlled simplemob)? Make wizard events happen more often ("The barrier between words is weaker")? Empty the hell dim and spawn all ghosts from there as skeleton servants? Emit rays of soul-power? If this is supposed to be AShadowling-lookalike, ma...

Jazaen

And just so you know, you can't turn one mutantrace into another - no human into lizard (or catperson) action using genetics. Also, human skin colours are kind of broken right now, so you can't change those too.

I... Actu... Wha?
And they say tumblr is weird...

And yeah, Gaster as in-game is not edgy, as he mostly just server the function of forcing the players to look through the files for clues. It's AU!Gaster that is edgy as...
Waaaaait... EVERYTHING AU is/can be edgy. I retract my statement.

But yeah, photoshop edges the heck out of everything else, except the community. And mayyyybe story of man who speaks in hands and his progeny,

You might want to avoid playing... About any pure RP game ever? I'm pretty sure there is a law that states: "As the percentage of time spent on RP approaches 100%, and constraint on backstories with moderation approach zero, possible Edge approaches infinity." Besides, Asriel is not that e...

Pretty sure it's not just roundstart AI that got axed, but also researchable AI.

Jazaen

Well, so far... Nothing really. If you follow someone into a room that has no doors, you are trapped, but that's about it.

Jazaen

Hey, is it permament, "test" ("We will remove it if no one likes it" like goofchem) or test?

Jazaen

Or this is all just a (or the) Matrix NT set up to test loyalty/robustness of their subjects. They even sometimes run you as a syndicate spy/wizard/etc, to test how quickly you adapt to new skills/goals and so that you know how they think and how to beat them.

Jazaen

Well, there is nothing better in XCom2 than mind controlling a sectoid, after everything I went through early-game fighting them.

Jazaen

It depends which way of explaining repeating names onboard you believe. You can either go "Groundhogs day loop", "This is just the first day onboard for everyone, nothing has happend before" or "Yeah, I got cloned. NT keeps rebuilding the station".

Scott wrote:RP is bad guys.

What. Are you saying that the only category of things onboard you can do except going either full autism and building a fort or full validhunt and building a mech is bad?

Jazaen

Yeah, oldcult wasn't so cheesy. Newcult has pretty much one strategy that works, and all others that require crew to be shit. Besides, we already have NukeOps filling this niche.

Jazaen

The thing about ops is that if you do manage to defeat them, and for some reason someone recalls the shuttle all people that died in zerg rush (and most likely anyone that ever got close to ops) will be left dead, just because some dingus thought that recalling was a good idea. (EDIT: Especially aft...

Jazaen

Good luck on defeating that newcult/ops without the zerg rush though.

Jazaen

You might as well throw genetics into research altogether, since it no longer has the "Health" counterpart of the job (do note that this would also nerf geneticists as a job, since right now they have a bit of sci access and a bit of medbay access.) EDIT: Darn people posting replies and fo...

I think Oldman raises a good point. Do you remember how much bleb was buffed with player-controlled blobbernauts? Maybe adding more player defenders to away missions really is the way to go.

Remove round-start AI and much of the circuits that allow the immediate building of one round start. If R&D does science and makes one in 30 minutes, then that would actually not bother me so much. You will have an AI sometimes, and sometimes not. However, removing round start AI removes traito...
