I feel I (and others) would enjoy this addition more if it was more thematically appropriate to ss13. It seems to stand on its own as ill-fitting of the universe of the game. How about giving them more connection to the lore, or alterting their identity/appearance/background to fit somewhere into th...

glitches aren't supposed to happen IC.

also, the Tesla gen was in the very center.

If you think something isnt working as intended and you want to check, use adminhelp and ask an admin to look into it for you.

invisty

Tbh we shoulda have a policy that makes people valid if they break into a place without any attempt at asking for what they want first. After all, such behaviour contributes nothing to the round and is entirely selfish.

Shift ventcrawling to dispoals.

let some creatures use disposals for movement, but if anything gets flushed down disposals, it hits the ventcrawler as if it was thrown.

How about making the uplink menu have a per-round and all-time supply/demand cost calculation, that sets both the round-start cost of items, and then adjusts the cost of those items as they are purchased. It could also decrease the cost of unpopular items during the round, meaning each tater round w...

The point being to try and visually get across that the sillycones shouldn't be valid hunting or defining people differently based on how they look and to give a barrier of immediate recognition by a secborg on who's security and who they would beat up/cuff if they were security. Oh and the inhands...

invisty

if you can't trust people, why rely on them at all? That's the problem. There's no reason to make yourself dependent on other players unless you're unambiguously allied. eg. metabuddies, no-antag-sec, syndies. Lone-wolfing, either as a protagonist or antagonist, should ideally put you at a greater ...

Tbh I do prefer the sergals over the silly avians.

But maybe im biases.

invisty

I dont see why you cant have both a simple set of Rules and then moderate by Act-based decision-making - which is in the rules and is supposedly something admins do already. The problem is that the rules and policy are enormous and stifle player creativity and choices. Why not permit one AI to be a ...

Paranioa died with the likes of cryo "usability" changes, the nerfing of hunger, etc. If you want to improve the paranoia, make people dependent on each other, then design the antagonists to play on that. Then nerf the capacity of individuals to go full walking-armoury-murderboner. "B...

I prefer the new one.

How do you expect AIs to receive harsher punishment for law violations if nobody bothers to report it?

IMO make stun batons do stamina damage when set to non-harm intents, as well as stunning.

And of course you shouldn't be able to resist out of cuffing while stunned or unconscious so there's that.

Exile firing pins plz.

Too hard to code tbh.

I'm rightly informed that in the books they're basically taking these drugs non-stop during the scenes in the ships.

0. Enforcement of these rules is at the discretion of admins. Admins are fully accountable for any consequences should they invoke this rule. Admins are also allowed to intervene in rounds when it is in the best interest of the playerbase. What part of the admin intervention here was in the "i...

What Invisty said. It made AI much more fun. I actually meant removing it made impersonation viable. Because there was some really easy way of detecting impersonation (I forget what it was), and it made it far too common such that people were very quick to call out impersonation over comms. A probl...

The ships are really nicely done. Very utilitarian, reminds me of the Homeworld style. That bit with the Rocicante tearing up the hangar was super cool. I really want to model it and run it through my 3d printer now. My only real objection so far is the simple violations of physics that are thrown i...

tbh I kind of enjoy voice changers and impersonation actually being viable fam.

Thermals, Cham Projector, Emag.

The would-be assassin. In reality, a good old uplink implant would likely prove the best value.

I like your thinking, but I think we can give them even more of a carrot. Give all crew members a NanotrasenTM uplink on their PDA for purchasing cosmetic clothing, musical instruments, immersion-busting and just-plain-annoying items with greentextcrystals . Greentextcrystals are obtained by winning...

Ban them all, then.

Zero tolerance.

invisty

Can we just ban J_Madison already?

This thread and his posts are the literal self-fulfilling prophecy of his purported complaints about ERP: That it causes drama.

Shh. Don't tell the plebeians how to read code, you'll just empower them further.

Snowflake code. Snowflake code everywhere.

Lets not conflate lizard/species restriction with being an uncharitable and stingy cunt.

Why don't we just add special on-round-start hats for donors, instead? $5 lets you unlock a slightly-different hat for a job of your choice?

At least you can steal hats.

invisty

Add a stealth player approval/disapproval system for bagil. Players could approve or disapprove of another player, but they only ever get to vote on each player once, and can subsequently change their vote as often as they like. If a player drops below an admin-defined margin, they get blacklisted a...

If you want good sci-fi, you read books. Television, film, anime, games, all fail to deliver the real hard or deep sci fi that defines the genre.

So anything more than solo at high levels seems unambiguously difficult, and it all seems to stem from the fact that players have to manage the camera. I'm not sure I like it, but it's certainly a challenge. One of the big advantages of ammo-less lasers is that you can spam them at off-screen scouts...

Basically, we remove conversion, and turn cult into a magic version of nuke, with a small team of stealth elite cultists that have to build a base in the station and sacrifice people in order to build an army of constructs and get materials to eventually summon Nar-Sie. A team [gangsters] that have...

Builds for high-end solo?

I'm currently running the Sickle/Shield meta and it's really strong. It feels like cheating, though, to not use ammo.

If any of you nerds are looking to do git gud and maybe take down some masters of the universe, I'm looking for folks to do 9+ difficulty runs. Usually on around after 0100 EST/2000 PST, onwards. Steam name is the same.

invisty

Give them clackers for their C4. Do signallers still work with C4 after it's been planted? If that is functional, they could simply start with a small handful of them... fuck it, more inventory juggling.

invisty

My loadout is 3 mechs and an APC. Mechs seem way better than anything else in the game. For the most part, I have to agree. The main downside is that they're single-use stratagems. I've not sussed out a priority-air-support loadout yet, but I have seen some excellent use of shredders to clear out e...

invisty

The EXO-51 is pretty nice though. Sure, the armour is inadequate and the flamethrower doesn't last long, but it's an excellent source of anti-boss AP and doesn't suffer the awful accidental rocket wasting problem the EXO-44 does.

You're asking for people to draw a black and white disinfection on a gradient of grey-area scenarios. That's a really pointless question.

Why the fuck does it even matter, anyway?

Are you guys actually arguing with John Oxford? You realise all he ever does is shitpost and hide under bridges, right?

Even better, make emagged drones valid, by having them electrocute people if they walk past them. People will try to kill them, and they'll blow up.

tl;dr - emag drone, people get griefed.

It's basically starship troopers (the film, not the book), the video game, isn't it?
