So, my question is. Why did you use the vote, which was barely in yes, as an excuse to remove the AI for a week, but this vote, which is barely in the no to removing silicon policy for a week, doesn't matter shit and you went ahead with removing silicon policy for a week? Kinda seems inconsistent. ...

Charcoal is a bitch to make, if i want a decent batch i have to go and gather a bunch of paper, spread it every where and light it on fire. Anti-toxin could be readded as an easier to make but less effective chemical or something? Also, why not rename some of the chemicals to be trek chemicals whil...

The rationale is that the chef might want to serve foods in the bar but the barman had no reason to serve drinks on the chef's counter. The bar is more of a dedicated "stay a while" type place, the chef's table is for a fly-by meal. What if somebody wants a drink but doesn't wanna sit aro...

trading for revolver seeds is an interesting way to waste all of your round waiting for the seeds to actually grow (they take like 8 minutes to grow haha). Or I could... buy a revolver. Can't you use their seeds to grow more revolvers? Why do I need more than 1 revolver? If I'm revolver memeing any...

There's a difference between losing a traitor round and throwing it away.

Officers patrol mainly halls and maint. Halls have a fair bit of glass to bypass around shocked doors and maint is a definite AI weak point. Yeah you probably don't have tools but that means any AI focusing on you is really wasting their own time. If you are a crew working against an AI or say grou...

When I play CMO I just replace any medbay staff that isn't there that shift/fucked off to do something else (hello chemistry).

Generally I also have to make sure all of my doctors actually know how to use the sleepers/cryo/cloning.

If anything like this change does ever go through then the amount of seeds a replica pod produces when it hasn't been injected with blood needs to be seriously buffed - they basically produce 1 seed the vast majority of the time, occasionally going up to 2. That makes it really tedious to actually h...

You certainly don't need gloves to hack and if you're an unrepentant asshole you don't technically need a multitool either. Just like, go get yourself 1 burn patch and find the shock wire, then remind yourself to never touch it again.

Mainly I'd like to be able to eat something without then slowing to a crawl for the entire rest of the round.

A bit of a nerf to malf AIs but now that they're basically just counted as traitors I don't see too much of a problem with that as long as it is still secluded and heavily access restricted (i.e. RD and Cap, not sec at all).

Where does this concept of biomass factor into botany's existing biomass generator.

Are you going to balance around there being no botanist (and thus, not infinite monkeys from the round start melons) or a competent botanist (I will drown you in monkey cubes).

newfren

The same thing happens if you eat a changeling (rip).

newfren

I don't want this merged because when I play botany I don't want every round to be "oh you're competent at botany shit out replica pod seeds or we'll all get shitty at you". I don't want to be chastised for going to play xenobio as the only scientist because otherwise there's not going to ...

I've had plenty of experiences where someone was a shitter to me one round but then I saw them again in another round and we got along like best buds. This.

Yeah fertilizer bottles are different - they also hold up to 50u whereas most bottles only hold 30.

Every time I see a botanist ask for a dropper I try and tell them about the fertilizer bottles but they never listen.

Does Saltpetre still increase plant potency? I tried using it one round and it didn't seem to change. Is there something else now (besides mutagen) that can increase potency? Without sacrificing an orphan to the RNG? I know that 1-2 units of mutagen affects the yield/potency without mutating the pl...

Adding sneezing to it just irks me. Sure, it increases the spread, but not everyone actually wants a virus for some reason; forcing it on them is pretty bad. That, and you can fit another good symptom in instead of sneezing. Toxic filter/toxin compensation/self-respiration/ocular restoration/stimul...

newfren

Why the fuck would I hand it out in pills. Give it sneezing then run around injecting a bunch of people with your own blood then evemtually the whole station will get it. Announce it on the radio so those that want it can get it quickly and act as extra infection vectors.

Nah probably not remove new cult.

It's also then really hard for a traitor to murderbone if everyone has stimulant/regen due to stuns not lasting as long and crit not being a eventual death sentence.

It also helps for mundane threats like carp/away missions/being caught in explosions etc.

I managed to make one of these once back when throwing bottles still forcefed your target neurotoxin and perfluorodecalin at the same time.

The Bartender's ability to throw a glass without spilling it extends to all forms of containers. I've yet to find a use for this antagonistically but it's fun to impress people who didn't know.

I believe that's actually slightly more efficient for the amount of wires put down than the standard method.

Although it looks like a pain in the arse to actually do.

If we could cut down on the random excess wires in everything that'd be grand.

People who make AWFUL suggestions like this deserve to have them applied to their own characters. hey guys you know what would be really cool? if we made every assistant spawn with an undroppable gun that does 100000 damage per hit, and gibs people if they're hit by it ...

I though that anything that isn't just a reaction/chain reaction in a grenade doesn't work. Eg, you can't make a grenade that has black powder and CFL3, because the CFL3 has to react first and heat up the black powder, and then the black powder has to react again to detonate. Same goes for cryostyl...

It literally does nothing to the probability of hitting the shock wire or a useful one and the fact that you think it does confuses me.
