From what I've seen undercover cops just go to the security and play regular supercop, fishing out gangsters one by one.

I guess they're meant to provide reasons for families to be violent.

Five doctors should really be enough for this, they already have access to handheld monitors. I think it's more interesting to have people take on such roles rather than force it.

Wetness time scales with volume of water, spray more down That's a good thing. However, last time I tried using it as a traitor, it felt like you'd need to spray half a spray bottle to even get something comparable to old drying times. I guess it's still useful in combat, but ambushes are completel...

I would very much welcome this.

According to this, goonstation admins will release a fixed version of the leaked code themselves, for everyone's free use. Does that mean that tgstation policy about leaked code will not longer apply?

Lo6a4evskiy

You know what, do it. It would be interesting to see the results. And there's always the second server if people can't take it for a few days.

That said, it's probably not a good solution long term, but it may show that AI tracking abilities need a nerf.

On one hand I can see where you're going with this, on the other hand it will split the community, it will encourage even more of server wars and elitism and shitlers will constantly leak, probably with people from both servers trying to push that playstyle onto the other one. Not to mention that ne...

I'm pretty sure the way it's done on bay doesn't always work. Though may be that changed.

Lo6a4evskiy

It would make filling in any crime that's not directly represented in Space Law (which isn't supposed to be more than a guideline and all that) a pain in the ass.

This. Don't try to blend all team modes. Revolution is decentralized by design.

Put it in armory perhaps.

Lo6a4evskiy

Not a bad idea. Make it happen.

I'd say go full support drone (mule, borg, whatever) and add things like ammo resupply, medical assistance, may be some (de)construction and hacking capabilities. Different kinds of drones could be implemented. And they don't necessarily need to be cheap.

Well I am. I went onto the Russian server already anyhow, but why can't I go to another one I have no idea.

Lo6a4evskiy

What does the thing with "Banned by host: All Pigs Must Die" mean? I remember long time ago trying to check it out and running into the same thing.

Actually, let's talk about the situation where the victim of search is actually an antagonist that was caught with syndicate items. And the main question is, can you adminhelp a security officer for a random search without a reason where you got caught as an antagonist or not?

Lo6a4evskiy

what point are you even trying to make here That either we're supposed to know game mechanics and use them accordingly or we're not. There's no particular reason to use dorms room unless you want to hide. But okay, suppose I accept that it's not a good enough reason to warrant a search and I could ...

So can I ask warden to escort me to the toilet because I want to pee? You know, IC, one should think that it's plausible.

Lo6a4evskiy

FYI in the US "Probable Cause" has a very clear legal meaning, which means you have credible, specific articulable reason this person could have committed a specific crime. Simply being suspicious is not probable cause. Reasonable Suspicion is a lesser standard for a credible articulable ...

I think saeg meant to point out that locking a private dormitory should be a perfectly normal thing to do. Do you not lock your own dorm/apartment/house/toilet stall? It's just that simply because of the game the players just have to see what's behind every locked door, and what should be perfectly...

...but it wasn't random. You were bolted alone in the dorms room. Yes, that seems suspicious to me as there was no indication of you being afk. If it hadn't been bolted, I would have moved along.

I'm pretty sure I was the HoS there. And yeah, I think that bolting yourself in a dorm room without being braindead (I didn't know if you were really afk, and you responded to my question immediately), plus refusing to show your backpack, I think that's a pretty clear indication that you have someth...

Yeah, the guy actually said he doesn't have the code. There's a high likelihood that it's lost forever.

Well then you need to choose whether you think of them as game mode antagonist and "side" antagonist. Because those are different and they have different balance requirements as well. Besides, it's hard to talk about how hardmode they would be when we don't have any concrete abilities or o...

Also, this was supposed to be in Ideas. Pardon. Ninja could have the objective to bomb certain areas, such as research, head offices, or atmospherics. Also, for the love of all that is holy, give these guys a temporary mute on one target or shit like that so that when engaging a stray maint prowler ...

I don't think anyone needs convincing that ninja in its current form is not good. The way I see it, if ninja is to remain a random event, it needs to lose capability to murder people with a rate of a wizard, a high level antagonist to which the entire game mode is dedicated. Ninjas aren't supposed t...

A traitor could run up to somebody, stab them a bunch of times rapidly, and run away before their victim can retaliate. I cannot imagine a situation where this would be better than just murdering them. Like, I got nothing. Honestly, bleed is just a tacked on mechanic that was only added because cer...

if you hit someone really hard with a blunt object they will bleed Exactly. You'd need to go over ALL or most items to see how much of this new damage type they need (I mean paper can cut, right? Let's totally add that). You'd need to balance that out. If you nerf brute damage of things like fire a...

I've eaten too many bans for doing what seemed like a perfectly reasonable thing at the time as security.

so if people could provide more feedback than "box is only good map" then maybe someone else could make a map that people like to play on - or people just shit on map rotation because change = bad and why would I want to play anything I'm not used to Well I can't speak for all the people,...

Am I the only one who likes the game for its social aspect? I mean, seriously. Most of the game's systems are terrible. Combat is terrible, things like R&D are bad, most of them are just a recipe of clicks that you have to repeat over and over. Gets old quickly enough. Talking to people though? ...

Lo6a4evskiy

It's simply a side-effect of map rotation system. What did you think was gonna happen when you implemented it?

Apart from what Saegrimr said, I don't think there's much to be done.

As hilarious as that is, doesn't that mean if I throw a spear at someone, secborg should baton the spear into submission? Fuck no, arrest the one tossing it.

Reading this thread gave me an idea. Bear in mind, I haven't played in quite a while, for one, for two, it's nothing fleshed out and just a sudden thought that might or might not work. Basically, automatically call ERT when a certain number of people died (percentage of the total crew, for example)....

From where I work now. ControlLoop.cpp is the very basic and integral part of the project, too.

To be fair, "Magic" refers to unnamed constants in the code, so that's easily explainable. No idea what "Madness" is though.

Why the hell would you want more shitty buttons that all look alike and are very hard to distinguish.

Why can't we have the verbs AND the buttons? Verbs are a lot clearer in my experience.

And sure, you can get used to the buttons. You can get used to verbs as well.

What's the point in having server cap if you are trying to find ways to let people in the round. This is absolutely counter-intuitive.
