I don't understand why you're fucking with the balance of every game mode for an "aesthetic" change that also helps against e-shields when you could just change eshields' laser reflect if that's what you're so concerned about.

It took me 5 minutes to get inside a room once when I broke a single window ("I'm IMMUNE TO SPACE what a great idea this is!")

Malkevin wrote:So you can sync the research levels now?

Cool. At one point I was going to stick a protolathe in Cargo.

Definitely can - one round I had to research myself up the tech levels so I could break into RnD and use their printer to get a circuit printer board, back before it was in tech storage.

newfren

Malkevin wrote:Probably removes the restrictions on the settings page and decon analyzer.

Protolathe and circuit printers were always all access though...

As a quartermaster who often makes RnD in the cargo bay, no part of RnD is access locked.

If we're going with a torus then there is no centre - that is, every tile is exactly the same as every other one.

Looping corpses are totally ok they are just lost to space. In a torus it's... probably impossible to make a moving body lost to space without leaving the Z-level? I think so at least - no matter which way you throw the body it'll eventually loop back around unless something stops it - thus, more s...

Why would viro need to.

-snip- i get what you're saying, don't get me wrong, but easier space exploration and more space loops for corpses is the opposite of what we want to accomplish I thought what we were trying to accomplish was easier space exploration instead of bullshit "I left the station directly vertically ...

http://imgur.com/LL5P7GR.png OK so this is how a torus works basically - each number connects to the same number north to south, and each letter connects to the same letter east to west. While YES you'll necessarily get more loops in this configuration it actually makes it way easier to explore spa...

Rip out floortiles, pull one, run over the other floortiles, done.

This is the best thing I've ever learnt about this game holy shit.

You remember how whenever you'd make a decision about something you'd decry the playerbase taking that to the furthest extreme they can stretch it to then shouting "IS THIS OKAY ADMINS???"

This thread is literally the same thing.

You can brain transfer --> defib now which is a bit quicker.

Stimulants are used in the traitor stimpack.

In which case the "Ask Virology" part should be removed.

Captains can do this with the automated thingo that announces what crew arrive at the station although he probably needs to know how to use NTSL to do it.

I dunno if anyone's telling you not to play to win as if it's morally reprehensible to them - I think they're just telling you that they don't play to win and get a different type of enjoyment out of it that they want to share with you.

The way I think it will be used is TWELVE BLOB ROUNDS EVERY TIME WE ROLL DA WITH MAYBE ONE OF THE GUYS ACTUALLY TRYING TO DO HIS OBJECTIVE.

If you get a stalematey blob round where there's actually some back and forth then a good viro should be able to churn out some basic regen/stim diseases by the midgame of the blob fight.

Can you not empty bottles by setting intent to red and clicking on the ground somewhere?

If not then just fill a glass and empty that twice in the same way.

Or forcefeed it to pun pun.

The funniest part of this OP is you complaining about a defib reviving someone who died of a heart attack.
