Chaplain Sect Thoughts

So, this isn't another thread about themes for sects, we have a fair number of those. But my thought is more inspired both by playing a fair bit of chaplain and reading recent threads on the subject. Specifically this one. I like sects, they're a cool addition to the game and a neat way to do themed...

Re: Heretic as a Solo Conversion Antag?

True but flesh heretics creations are on the flesh heretics team. TBH while I like the idea of heretics like this, I'm more interested in the general concept of a Solo Conversion Antag. Where the Antag wants to do X to advance/greentext. But in the process of doing so they create new antags like the...

Heretic as a Solo Conversion Antag?

Currently the two main conversion Antags, Cult and Rev, are also team antags. And the thought occurred to me of how it would look to have a conversion antag that keeps it's solo antag nature, and by process of doing it's thing, creates other solo antagonists that are actually rivals. Cue my thoughts...

Re: If changeling MMI test is a exploit, what is the solution?

Don't Jellypeople already do multiple mob control? You just swap between bodies using a menu. And it's a complete nightmare that breaks so much. The only reason it's not an issue is because of how rare it is. Huh, interesting. Makes sense why it's such a pain to actually do if it breaks stuff.

Re: Roundstart tech storage tiding, opening EVA/teleporter shutters, and similar forms of roundstart shittery.

I don't see why you're flipping the question on its head. This is a non-problematic behavior . As Zxaber said it's literally like taking a bucket of sand from a beach. The onus is on you to explain why taking the insuls form tech storage is harmful to LRP. Except it's not a dick move and no one car...

Re: Crowd Control in a post-stunbaton world

Couldn't you just dual wield disablers? Obviously the ammo would still be an issue but for rate of fire you can easily cover a hall in disabler shots.

Re: What is MRP?

In my view... No RolePlay: Your job is just a mechanical package of access and starting equipment that defines your starting position. It is purely a team death match between antag and crew, with no real chain of command. Certain roles are essentially alternative assistants with different access. Th...

Re: Lathe tax - digg free comment thread

You can make these vendors already. People just don't because they're a little weirdly documented and they need parts/boards that most people don't know where to find or how to make (if they even know they exist at all). For chef (from my personal experience) you also can't really make anything goo...

Thus far the most completed Ratvar chapel I've done. Big props to the player of Gabriel who helped out a ton to make it work while I fussed with walls and decorations. Also Reed, for being cool even after I tried to tunnel into the chemistry lab.

Re: Possible change to uplinks (for traitors)

So perhaps a dumb idea. But why not make Syndicate HQ an ordinary job? Then it's their responsibility to lob antags into the station. They have a starting budget that depends on roundpop. They increase their budget by their agents completing objectives kind of like cargo bounties. Instead of a trait...
