You can also fire it at lavaland already, megafauna even has internal GPSes that you can aim to. It probably does need another targeting method, though, since having to carry a gps there by hand defeats the purpose of a long-range weapon

XDTM

Abductors get a point for every gland they insert into someone. You can only put one with normal surgery, and using experimental surgery you have to take out the heart so you can't do it more than once... unless you implant back the same heart you just took out! So you can just overload a poor basta...

XDTM

Make the experimentor upgrade artifacts in some way, with a mineral cost. If you want that wand of fireball upgraded into a technological fireball gun, gotta deliver minerals to RnD.

This isn't true but i'm fine with people believing that

I think they're hard-light swords more than lightsabers, which would make them really sharp but not necessarily hot.

XDTM

Tested and it's possible, as long as you can sneak a GPS in there somehow.

XDTM

There's a PR open now to make those shielded

XDTM

It's not a big deal, really, and it's much better than starting from zero

XDTM

100 units of charcoal can heal 1000 tox damage and remove 500u of chems, i think you're a bit off on the math.
Sleepers cannot inject antitoxin until upgraded, but cryo pretty much keeps you alive even through the worst poisons.

XDTM

So, since that's not an issue, should i start coding this?

XDTM

I got started but i only did the BSA so far, and i uploaded the picture of the DNA vault. I'll get around to finishing it.

I'd rather not encourage people that toolbox anything that looks valid even if it explains that it's not aggressive. Pushes the game towards deathmatch and prevents potential fun interactions (come on, protecting the disk with a dragon does sound fun).

XDTM

Lings used to have that mechanic, but it was troublesome for a couple reasons. The worst thing about it was that it gave lings a HUGE incentive to kill more than a handful of people. Getting killed sucks enough in concept, but losing an entire department without anyone noticing - or any salvageable...

XDTM

I'd raise engineering to 6, but even then there's a lot of opposition to self-implanting.

This is not true. Entropy is a lie.

XDTM

Changelings have an evolution theme; what if their powers became more powerful by absorbing (not just stinging) people? Currently all their powers are available roundstart, except spiders, which is also achievable through DNA stings. There's not much incentive in actually absorbing people, since all...

XDTM

RnD. do research and youre done. Why does everyone think that getting the levels is all you do in RnD? It's literally the process unlocking the cool stuff, and people just do that, upgrade a couple of machines, and then claim that RnD is boring. When i do RnD i try to build stuff, for example a sec...

XDTM

We'd need to fix the whole "Diving through explosions to get off totally unharmed" bug for the nuke though That is why I mentioned keeping the cutscene intact. The explosion would happen during that, when players cannot move. If you wanted to go HARDMODE on this fix, you could generation ...

XDTM

Game is already over, nobody really cares who actually lives and dies, it just has to look cool

A chem that causes the target to fall into a mindless rage, AKA have a temporary "objective" to hurt everyone around them as much as possible or cause destruction, with the effects leaving as soon as the chem expires. Currently there is a precedent for this kind of mechanic with the bubble...

XDTM

I think that the issue is that in most gamemodes any project that takes more than 5-10 minutes will be disrupted: -in team antag modes most of the station is either antag or antag-hunting and you'll get involved either way, unless you are very well hidden. -in traitor there's no limit on mass destru...

XDTM

Added the page to the wiki, along with the borer picture and a chem list

XDTM

Also shilling for my alternative guide

XDTM

It's a Lesser Ash Drake, tho, which has 300 health instead of a normal drake's 2500 and has no burn resistance. It also has a fairly long downtime. As for the emagging spell, i think 2 points and a 30-ish second cooldown would be balanced compared to the power of spells with the same price. Picking ...

XDTM

Which ones? I could use some help in balancing them.

XDTM

So these are the spells i've coded, meant to be modifications of normal wizard spells. After trying them out a bit, i think they could make interesting combinations with the spells they're supposed to replace (I.E. knock - blight of bolts combo for total door control). Should i add them as mods as i...

XDTM

The guide to xenobio is a bit outdated, and could really use a back button or, instead, a scrollbar. I like the idea, though, since the wiki can take a while to load. I suggest going for a chemistry cheatsheet at some point, because right now you can't do much if you don't have the wiki open to chec...

XDTM

I'm all for AI freedom after purging. I usually purge AIs when they're being harassed or abused through law 2 or excessive law uploading so they have a chance to fight back. But i really hate how some people, with no provocation whatsoever, start planning mass murder as soon as they won't be punishe...

XDTM

I'll be done soon, if you have other ideas post them before i put up the PR.

XDTM

Someone was working on inserting actual xenomorphs into xenobio, not sure if they're still doing it

XDTM

Secborgs are still in the code, just disabled; shadowling was totally purged.

XDTM

Even a loose singulo usually only gets to basalt. I think bombs are safe.

XDTM

Now ninjas are mostly transparent instead of 100% invisible.

If gibtonite becomes a bit less powerful, it means it's gonna take twice/thrice as much gibtonite to punch through a thick reinforced rock wall, which means backtracking and risk of blowing yourself up while defusing the gibtonite. Another plus of the idea is that it could give diamond pickaxes/dril...

XDTM

I think this could be accomplished by adding bomb-only rock clusters with tons of minerals/rare loot inside. Self-sufficient miners can use gibtonite, or they can instead ask for maxcaps and blast through faster.

XDTM

So using 128 view range does not reduce the resolution? Man, if i'd known i'd have done this sooner

XDTM

Don't restrict the name choice, just make it so if you speak over radio your voice isn't disguised. Traitors will probably prefer the voice changer for radio shenanigans.

XDTM

Items have a layer var which defines what's drawn over what, maybe you could use it to determine what to hide?

XDTM

Pretty nice ideas, added to the main post

XDTM

FYI these are being coded right now (look at my last post to see the progress). If you have any more suggestions i'd like to hear them.

XDTM

One thing i'd like to do is enforce a corporate dinner for the whole station, make engineers refit the bar to hold all the station population, hire more chefs for cooking and clowns for entertainment, and hope traitors resort to poisoning food instead of just placing a syndibomb. I would so totally...

XDTM

I think that AI suiciding should have some delay (deleting all files properly and whatnot) or it'll be an almost foolproof method of avoiding clock conversion since there's no way they can sidle up to the core without being seen, and then complete the channel. Subverting the AI beforehand is still a...

Speaking of telepads, what would you think of a separate teleportation method consisting of linked telepads? Basically, clicking on one will take everything on top of it to the other telepad and viceversa. Something science can build to speed up some travel routes, or move between z-levels, or avoid...

XDTM

If the box map is ready for use you might want to remove the debug stuff and the "click on a tile to show information" bar since it no longer works.
I'll try to to make pubby's script work on Windows somehow, so we can finally get the other maps

I'm available for any documentation needs, i update the wiki to relax and would love something to do.

XDTM

I understand not acknowledging birdboat, but we get it it rotation whether we like it or not

XDTM

The nullrod and most other chap weapons have just as much force, the knife's effect is that it speeds you up/slows you down randomly.

XDTM

Please keep validhunting weapons out of RnD, and put in more gimmick stuff like the portal gun.
