If people aren't mining now that it's incredibly easy, they still won't mine even if mining was reverted. There would probably be less miners, since there would be no fun goodies to look forward to without RnD's help.

ExplosiveCrate

They're a random event that happens pretty rarely, and it's even more rare for it to be enjoyable. Most ninjas that know the mechanics use their visor to antag hunt and "accidentally" gib the AI.

ExplosiveCrate

I'm pretty sure there's been multiple polls on this topic, almost all in favor of nerfing it.

ExplosiveCrate

I don't think there's even any big differences in NTCode. At least, not now. Might change if dismemberment and other projects are actually finished.

ExplosiveCrate

Actually, that's a good point. Does F12 hide the AI interface?

ExplosiveCrate

Assuming an antag is borged, desynced from any AIs, and has his laws wiped, would that antag be able to pursue his objectives even though he won't be able to greentext?

ExplosiveCrate

Yeah, typing out the commands (or at least, part of the commands then pressing space) is way more convenient than clicking a button. There's really no reason to remove the verbs other than "ew verbs".

ExplosiveCrate

How exactly did he make them better? Faster speed, ability to use a scanner, better offensive potential...?

ExplosiveCrate

When chaplains insist on healing people who clearly don't want to be healed. Or worse, when they try to "heal" people with no damage.

I mean fuck, chaplains are invaluable during some rounds but people tend to forget that because some chaplains run around making everyone retarded.

ExplosiveCrate

The only way to get shit from mining is to be part of RnD, and they get like 5 sheets of plasma for free at round start. No real way to get plasma outside of actually being a miner, engineer, or scientist.

ExplosiveCrate

You could, you know, let the CE/HoS/captain know that you're making bombs ("researching plasma") before actually making bombs.

ExplosiveCrate

First time I played I joined as a Rastafarian chaplain on Goon, bashed myself a few times in the head with a marijuana leaf, and met a space man in the church. Literally named "Space Man", in a space suit. He waved and was immediately bombarded by poo, then I got hit by poo and got trapped...

ExplosiveCrate

Ripleys are completely useless for mining, though. You'd be better off trying to convince cargo and security to order shotguns for the miners.

ExplosiveCrate

Sleeptoxin takes an age and a half to take effect, and you can still use your hands. Not that hard to PDA the HoS your location and the name of your attacker.

Mute+sleeptoxin should be fine.

ExplosiveCrate

Money is literally useless. There is no reason at all to restrict it.

I mean hell, botanists can already make an infinite amount of medicine, uranium, silver, gold, zombie powder, etc. Why should some useless small items be restricted?

ExplosiveCrate

Running made fat people heat up, therefore it would be easier to escape through space if you were fat.

ExplosiveCrate

Maybe have them glow green, and emit radiation, and say how they'll be a threat to us all if they're not killed and disposed of? Radiation hitchhiker. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/4842268/Radioactive-sex-offender-on-the-run.html To encourage people to find the escapees, make it so the upl...

ExplosiveCrate

Or just make it so constructs made by non cultists aren't considered cultists. That way the station can get a powerful (?) ally, but it's immediately obvious that it isn't on Nar-Sie's side.

ExplosiveCrate

Well, you can get duplicate functions (and double/triple up on them if you want) and most encounters in the ng+ cycles have different enemies (Men in Fairview, for example). Some doors in the break room only open in ng+, so it's the only way to get the Agency achievement. There's a few things here a...

ExplosiveCrate

How long does a potency 100 banana stun for?

Also, plant size is also based on stats. You could have a bunch nearly invisible banana peels that stun for less than a second of you really wanted to.

ExplosiveCrate

Well, now I'm curious about my notes. Funny how the thread turned out like this, maybe someone should make a separate thread dedicated to people asking to see their notes.

Also what the hell is up with knaive's second note? Forum spam?

ExplosiveCrate

Cult tomes do a fixed amount of burn damage regardless of armor (10-15, I think?), so it would only really be useful against constructs.

Label it DO NOT EAT HAS MUTAGEN. If they eat it they are entirely at fault for picking up random drugs off a table and eating them.

Oh hey, I remember this. It was salvaged from leaked D2K5 code (thanks, Nermums) IIRC it gets the songs from youtube videos and it can cause some serious slowdown for certain people if they have a subpar internet collection. At least, that's how it was on D2K5. No idea if /vg/ improved on its code o...

The idea of a a flesh universe I'd interesting but I'm also lacking sprites and floor/wall tiles. There was this one server (now gone from the face of the earth) with a weird mish-mash of gooncode and baycode on the BYOND SS13 page once. Joined it one day and found that someone had opened a red, me...

It's more like ghosting after being permabrigged/shoved in a 2x2 metal square naked and cuffed.

ExplosiveCrate

Also from that round. I managed to float into space and got permanently stuck in blobspace when the admins started pressing buttons. Could only move by putting down walls or grilles. I was at 30% battery and had no idea where I was in space, so I couldn't get anywhere. http://puu.sh/9u2Xa/17a3b13ac7...

It'd be fine if they weren't a fucking random event. As in something that can happen at any point in any round.

Yeah.

ExplosiveCrate

You can see invisible ninjas with Sec/MedHUDS. There'll just be this HUD floating in the air.

But yeah, if nothing else ninjas should be disabled as random events until they can be looked at and improved.

ExplosiveCrate

Adding on to that: You can mutate kudzu to get even deadlier versions of kudzu! Some of them eat oxygen, some eat plasma, some strangle people to death.

And there was a strain that gibbed dead corpses, but I'm pretty sure it got removed.

ExplosiveCrate

I don't like the idea of a ling that brings people back. The entire point of ling is that people go missing and the station starts to get emptier and spookier. The problem is that the station also got more boring. A station slowly going silent isn't a sign that something bad is happening: it's a si...

You can't use Spread Infestation without 10 genomes. With this you'd need to kill 10 people for a... Pretty lackluster power.

ExplosiveCrate

And even then they're incredibly easy to find. If all else fails, blow up the toilet and go after the disk after it respawns. Speaking of nuke ops, viscerators don't attack nuke ops. Don't know if it's tied to explosive implants, factions, or syndicate IDs. If you carry one in your pockets you can e...

ExplosiveCrate

They also make incredibly fearsome creatures if an admin decides to modify them to attack people.

I also believe that they'll eat anything that they kill. That means that the assistants that throw themselves at the mushrooms will only serve to make it stronger.

ExplosiveCrate

GRS got hit hard by the nerf stick, though. Funny thing is that these nerfs made hex builds literally invincible. Numbness increases all resistances by 30% and can potentially last over a minute, Great Magic Barrier does the same. With Havel's Armor + Gyrm Helmet you get the last 30% you need to be ...

ExplosiveCrate

Just have the space suit give you weldervision for a few seconds if you weld something/get flashed/have a flashbang go off near you. IIRC real space suits have automatic filters that activate whenever the sensors detect a bright light/the sun.

ExplosiveCrate

Pretty sure the on-station nuke code has always defaulted to LOLNO, which is impossible to type on a numpad.

ExplosiveCrate

Speaking of hitting people with bells, a lightning infused Disc Chime hits like a brick made out of lightning if you happen to tap anyone with it. Around 700 per hit, I've seen 1200 on someone without armor. AND you can use it to shoot lighting/heal/buff/block.

I'm pretty sure it was proven that anti tox literally does nothing to LSD. Literally nothing. It's what prompted someone to make a PR to nerf LSD sting/LSD.

What happened to that?

ExplosiveCrate

The briefcase was literally useless against anyone with over half their health remaining, and instantly knocked anyone under that threshold out.

ExplosiveCrate

Wait, so now we have to define everything in freeform laws on the off chance that the AI decides to be a dick? I thought people hated needlessly wordy laws.

ExplosiveCrate

As long as the gameplay is different enough from the same old, same old I'm fine with them recycling weapons. Kinda excited, honestly.

Granted, they'll probably cock it up.

ExplosiveCrate

Since "dick" isn't defined, one must assume the law wants you to not be ANY kind of dick. Therefore, the AI can't be:
-an asshole
-named Richard
-a detective
-a penis
-incompetent meddling

The AI can't choose which definitions to ignore, because it will break the law.

The only reason a wizard would use Summon _____ spells is to sow chaos with random people becoming antags with overpowered weapons.
