Thermal vision and space adaptation are only two powers that are not gimmick that are worth killed time. Rework minigame involved, somehow, to make gimmick power job work. As potential user of powers, I liked thermal vision more than X-ray, and never really wanted hulk because it's all about removi...

snip I agree with the intention of the PR, but the implementation is hard to justify without breaking immersion. As i mentioned in a comment, there is no way a medipen would be designed to lock up in specific pressures if there is no actual downside otherwise, and having to depressurize a room on s...

You might be good enough at medbay to fully reconstruct someone back to health, but that'll take significantly more time and effort then rounds generally last.

I don't see how it can take a whole shift to fix someone, even if they are /fucked/.

The point is that if you don't get killed, why should you be allower to basically jump back in the game with almost no consequences, and almost no down time? Because cloning still took a fuck ton of time. It was only fast if you were the only person in line (unlikely as fuck) or someone speedran hi...

Everyone seems to be missing the true aim of my PR, and I'm absolutely certain that some are doing it on purpose. The aim was never about stopping from giving pen to medical or whatever. That's just an afterthought that I edited in the PR because someone mentioned it to me. The aim of this PR is to ...

I can think of one easy way to encourage exploration and actually prevent miners from speedrunning fauna/tendrils.

Remove GPS signals from fauna and tendrils. This way you mine a lot of shit, while exploring, and you don't just rush the G A M E R L O O T

I actually really like that idea, except that they can just build a scanner as well next to the console and use their OOC knowledge to operate it.

That would only serve to postpone the problem slightly, and then people would still run around with their mutations etc....

Your idea is nice, but then they could just dump a bunch of Genetic Sequence Analyzers and let people make the mutator themselves, which would lead right back to the "mutation vendor" issue.

This kind of solution would probably make geneticists behave the same way but not bother sharing anything anymore, much like old RnD where they used to print all the gamer gear and then go greytide/validhunt with it. That's a very fair point. Since I mostly play on Manuel, I hadn't taken into accou...

They have things to do ! Now everytime they want to make a mutator for someone, they have to actually look for someone with the sequence, get them to genetics, activate it and print the mutator. Or they can also scramble monkeymen until they find the sequence. Either way it gives them busywork and p...

I agree that Manuel would be a good fit for some of the more Roleplay-Heavy gamemode. Devil is nice, and I've had enjoyable shifts where people TC traded for it and created an interesting narrative. I believe Abductors does not present enough threats to the crew to warrant being the primary gamemode...

Introduction Hi, my name is Cimika, also known as Kathy Ryals, or Anderson Auman. I mainly play on Manuel and Terry, in Science or Medical. Today, I would like to talk about some current problems that I, and some other Science players, have felt the need to address. The Issue Genetics is an extreme...
