Re: Little things you learned that are game changing
The Modular Receiver got moved from the RnD protolathe to hacked autolathes some time ago. While they can only be constructed into the improvised shotgun (For now, coders please expand) the ability to mass produce them can provide a near limitless source of one shot hold out weapons.

This is why it's an idea. What would you give them? I figure a crossbow would be a simple dormant tendril weapon, since their god is asleep still, but plenty of options after it wakes up.

I believe there is huge potential for Lavaland to be used as the basis for a new gamemode, to get more crew to interact with it outside of the occasional megafauna making its way onto the station, while giving the ashwalkers a more entertaining and powerful ghost role.

Adding hands and feet might be cool. Give room for plenty of new augments and implants. And I like the idea of skin grafts. As a miner, the idea of covering myself head to toe in goliath or ash drake plate is amazing.
However, this all seems like a whole hell of a lot of coding to do.

Let crowbars chisel through stone blocks at a very slow pace. This way if people end up in Lavaland, they can get around with the most common tool on the station.
Have it be terribly slow, like, 1/4 the speed of a pickaxe, but at least it's SOMETHING in case worst comes to worst.

With some nose to the grind stone mining, can collect 200 assorted rare ores, no glass or iron, before the first ash storm hits. Once you get a plasma cutter and a bluespace satchel, you can easily drown the station in so many minerals the QM is selling everything off to buy a hundred null crates.
