/tg/Station 13

Sweaterkittens

I really like this especially because the standard assault pod is so goddamn big that it usually is more of a hinderance than a help. The turrets on the sides seem like a really good bonus, but the thing is so fucking huge that they generally end up embedded in the wall where they can't hit anything...

Sweaterkittens

I love it. It's a much better way to add a bit more flavor to your character without adding something like flavor text which usually ends up being a joke. It would be nice if it came up as a clickable link when you examine someone (perhaps you have to be within a certain range?). The only difficulty...

I think this is a really cool idea, but executing it would be immensely time consuming. The amount of sprites in this game is pretty staggering, and not only doing a bigger, higher detail one for every item in the game, but every new item is a monumental task. That being said, if you or someone you ...

If there was a resource-efficient way to do it, it'd be nice as something that ramps up as the station gets more damaged. I have seen admins fiddle with this sort of thing manually during events and it's very cool. It would definitely have to be clear flickering/on-and-off, not the shitty buzzing th...

How would the drop-pods look? Would it just drop you on a single tile? Or would the pod be a 3x3 shape so you could fit in the middle? Would it have weapons like the assault pod?

You should have to pay tc to NOT play the KoolAid "OHHH YEAHHHHHHH" when you drop.

Sweaterkittens

everything in the game has hard counters not having the hard counter be a common thing doesn't make the weapon absolutely uncounterable, it give's the person using it a advantage in the situation. I think you're correct, that not everything in the game has to have a hard counter. Dual e-swords don'...

I did a little testing on this, and it appears that only one of the wish granter options will grant you antag status. Just touching and interacting with it will not in itself give you antag status.

I spoke to Saeg about this in IRC the other day, and I agree completely with his stance. It seems like it's been a long slope into the current state where flashes are only used as emergency anti-borg tools or during rev. I usually main CMO, and I like having a telebaton, but I feel like all of these...

Very similar, honestly. The important distinction is that you aren't two separate entities, you can't be separated and you see exactly the same thing. There's zero risk of any OOC communication causing any issues.

Why bother admin helping when 90% of the time it'll be ruled as an IC issue? Hell the only negative note I have is when I got into an argument with an admin about being abused by horrible sec. And I wouldn't concede that their actions were an IC issue but rather a violation of rule one, so I got la...

What if there was an actual "Mentor" mode coded into the game, so metacomming for teaching wouldn't be an issue? MSO is right, teaching people to play the game in-game is the least effective method of doing so. It wouldn't be hard to implement, I imagine. In the lobby, you could choose a n...

Guys what if wait no what if we ban shitty sec players from sec I still think this is the best solution to this problem. I know it's extra work for the admins, and there's a lot of grey area and opinions regarding what's reasonable to do as a security officer - but I think there are plenty of times...

Sweaterkittens

I love this idea, this map looks like it'd be a fucking riot to play on. And I hate new maps.

The only thing I would change is moving the sleepers in medical down with the Cryo tubes, so it's a whole 'treatment area' like on Box, and giving the current sleeper area to the CMO to use as an office.

The parts that DID work however were rejected for being too extreme. I don't want to get too off-topic, but I would argue that at least part of the overwhelming negative response was due to how many issues the system brought up as a whole, rather than just the parts that worked properly. I think th...

The art style is also slightly different and it always irks me for some reason. Honestly, I really enjoyed Paradise the few times I played there (aside from the rampant weird fetishized furry characters) but the thing that got me was the art style and design. Like everything looked good, but it fel...

Without a doubt my favorite person on this server. Krusvik is a genuinely excellent player who I always enjoy interacting with and am very happy to see as a headmin. 10/10

Second (or third) for newscasters shared between servers. And more places to access the news in the workspaces as Gun Hog said. News feeds are so very under-utilized, having some more functionality could add a lot.

A reasonable change instead of sweeping nerfs/buffs or removing it outright? I thought I was on /tg/ station.

But seriously that makes it a lot more tolerable, thanks.

It looks like it's been beat to death, but I'll chime in as an avid Silicon player just to agree with Lumbermancer's decisions. In fact, I think it was really well done that he chose to follow his laws to letter and off himself instead of allowing himself to quite obviously be converted. While it's ...

This is awesome, thanks MSO!

The only reason anyone would complain about this is fixed by having it toggle-able.

a) its a botanist plant chemical not geneticist and b) it already does decrease your size after the chemical in your body is used up.. it's just that if you consume lots of it (there's no OD) then you'll basically be like a giant forever Ah, I haven't played in a few months, I didn't know that.

I agree with what others have said here, that it's lost its luster and could probably do with being removed. It was hysterical the first time I saw it, now it's just a bored geneticist using it on themselves or the clown every other round. It's a funny thing that's been pretty thoroughly driven into...

Time locks do nothing as most of these rolls are trial by fire to learn in the first place. They are called team antags because you're supposed to work as a team, veteran and more experienced players should be doing what they can to help new players to the role, and if that's not working just ahelp...

Sweaterkittens

While Kor is correct in the matter that a time lock won't get people to read the wiki pages, I do think that it *would* ensure that someone who is brand new to SS13 or /tg/station doesn't enable a role that they're completely unprepared for, which even if it doesn't help much, it probably can't hurt...

I always like things like spider infestations. It's an ancillary antag that either brings the crew together to fight it, or causes a secondary issue in an already hectic round. One of my favorite rounds was Krusvik and I holed up during a gang round, the entire station on fire, crawling with spiders...

Sweaterkittens

@oranges: Are you asking if that's correct as in: is that how it's working in-game? It could be. It would explain why giving O negative blood to someone can cause a transfusion reaction, when it should always be compatible. Or are you asking if that's correct as in: is that how it works in real life...

Sweaterkittens

Frankly, in regards to donation, people need to lose blood from trauma and bleeding faster, but you need to not suffer the severe effects that you currently do when you've only lost a little. Donating blood is a problem because typically taking ONE pack of blood will put your donor in just as bad of...

Sweaterkittens

Thats just not true though. Unless you're O negative, you always have at least one other type that you can receive. Lemme break it down for you. O type blood is more like a lack of a type than its own. Any other type of blood can receive O type blood. The +/- indicates the rh factor. If you have a P...

Sweaterkittens

Yeah absolutely, but that's because of an actual bug, rather than being an issue with the amount of blood in medbay. Like Kor said, having things fall apart and get rough because you ran through almost 10 packs of blood is a good thing, it puts you in crisis mode and makes things fun.

Sweaterkittens

I was thinking about something like this just the other day. I think having RnD being less of just following a recipe, deconning the same things and unlocking the same tech - and having it have a lot more choice involved would be better. What if a blob appears late and you haven't begun down the tre...

Sweaterkittens

Bloodpacks are broken right now, and have been for a long time. Its incredibly irritating because people think you're a shit Doctor for not giving blood, but half the time I give the right type and they have a tranfusion reaction anyway. For example, I should /never/ have a patient having a transfus...

Not a fan of this at all. Playing Security Borg was one of my favorite things before I started playing medical regularly. The issue with secborgs is a player problem, not a code problem.

I know this server has always had a tenuous relationship with Lore, but as Steelpoint said, the established lore for Plasmamen on this server is that they're their own species, rather than ex-humans.

*LOUD SIGH* The reason we switched to jumpsuits for Plasmamen during the design phase was because it was just more intuitive and easier to make work.

I'm obviously biased since I designed /tg/ Plasmamen, but I really do enjoy nonhuman races. THAT BEING SAID. There are three ways that it can go when you add more nonhuman races: 1.
