1) Make it so gangsters can see EVERYONE who is a gangster, not just their gang. That way we get gang on gang violence. If you're autistic we can just say you recognize the tune they're snapping or whatever. 2) All gangsters can convert a non-gangster whose been knocked down. Give gangsters an innat...

Fleshing out forensics more sounds nice, but I'd worry about balancing "actually being able to figure out who did something" with "people still being able to get away with murder". As for the uniforms, why not just give the Defective two CSI uniforms in his locker or something bu...

A text editor and printer on the standard OS. So I can send covert messages from the hacked cargo computer to the engine's power monitor. Or just ASCII art of dicks to the HoP's computer.

It could cross-reference with the medical database somehow, so doctors could examine people to see their last wishes ala how sec can (and never does) leave notes on perps.

Does it still strip implants?

Making you naked isn't a problem, making several traitor items useless is. The entire point of the uplink implant is to get yourself jailed so you can murder someone after all.

Whose willing to come colonize Antarctica with me so we can live out our post-national ideas and slowly devolve into a colder, fatter, and lonelier Lord of the Flies?

Daemon/AnonymousNow, maybe lower (or disperse) that deep bass at the beginning a bit? It sounds too much like just a blob of deep noise followed by some screaming. I like it, but it feels like you're listening to a solid block.

FYI the admin spawned dolls thing he was talking about was me spawning myself in, shrinking myself by half, changing my say_verb to "echoes from its voicebox", naming myself "Official So-and-so Plush Doll" and then just sitting still while people dragged me around, occasionally ...

I don't mean to be THAT guy, but, how exactly do you suggest we fix coderbus? What actual steps or additions must be done? The way I see it is the big problem/complaint lies in a lack of communication between Coders and Players. But many (if not most) players don't have a forum account or simply don...

I'd say you should worry about what niche the cult fills before you go off on just generally improving everything. Not that that's bad at all, but quality of life changes are different from a rework. The traitor is the standard "stealthy bad guys". Revs are a seething mass. The AI is the s...

Is there a way to get past the chitin so I can cut their organs out? Acid and defib-monkey-human don't work.

The Disco effect Admins sometimes spawn in the bar gives me FPS lag out the ass. So do large amounts of those lit floors blinking in unison.

Vague and tangential story ended with a poorly constructed reason to even make this post

I used the armblade sting plus EMP to rek my target today. If that's your doing then A+++. Instead of giving the ling flesh clothes why not let it store items in itself?

Because you don't have to kill him just because he has itm

Fire needs some fixing. Maybe lower the amount of fire it sets you on? Or make the ignite on hit?

Also, how does the teleport Guardia work? Do the bolts just teleport randomly ala blink/hand tele/RD's armor?

Because sometimes winning isn't fun.

Dante was pretty good if just for the fact that he could yakety sax like a pro.

Correct, but you can sac your manifested ghosts which nets you a shard.

The issue with any nerf to Ei Nath is that you take remove the greatest fear of Wizard: Being removed from the round with absolutely no way of stopping it.

And who's going to get those faxes? IC issues are IC issues, stop trying to drag the admins into them. It gives you a fax back after a few minutes. The contents of the fax are randomized replies with absolutely no relation to the round ("Yes", "No", "That is classified, cea...

Why not just give wizard different sprites for his constructs? He still gets Arty, Jugg, and Wraith, but they're ~magical~ pink instead of obsidian.

Changeling grab-absorption takes a time of 150 per step (There are 3) to complete and drawing a rune as it currently is takes 50. Putting handcuffs on someone takes 30 seconds.

So like 100 seconds for a single man conversion, 50 for a 2 man conversion, and instant for 3?

Yes. The idea being that it would be a "living" item like MMI's and Soulstones. It would occasionally twitch and scream and stuff, could only communicate via the Commune ability (Which non-cultists would just hear as it wailing endlessly). The issue with it was whether or not it should be ...

So, I decided to take a crack at coding stuff for cult. Only, I quickly ran out of ideas. So far what I've got working is: -The tome now works like the crayon. That is, you translate the words and input them into the tomes dictionary. When the required words for a rune are translated and input, you ...

Would limiting to just the AI and codeword antags ease the process? Or would it then just check if every player is an antag/AI when they hear something?

Roller beds are best. If sec puts a tracking implant in you, you can self surgery to remove it and give yourself a face lift. Roller beds offer the advantage that you can move room to room to keep sec from getting suspicious. (Start surgery with drapes in medbay, scalpel chest in bar, retractors in ...

Personally I've found some success in splitting my Officers into two squads and making them patrol together. One of the biggest challenges I face as the HoS comes to communication from my Officers. I simply cannot understand why a lot of Sec Officers either miss or ignore a order call in order, and...

Probably the most bizarre HoS round I've ever had happened a few days ago. I latejoin, and the station is a mess. Right off the bat I catch a traitor and toss him in perma.

Pretty sure the AI also has an actual icon for it on the new AI hud. I don't play AI much however, so I may be wrong.

How do you make a " Attention: " announcement as the AI? Doesn't seem to be through the request console as I thought it might have been. Communication console. AI/Borgs automatically log into it and can call shuttle (but not recall) and make announcements via it Hence why you can always t...

Do staff of changes aliums count as friendly?

Assuming there isn't a queen pooping aliums or they aren't going around murdering people, then obviously all bets are off.

Hi. I'd like to request a blood red egg on a chain (similar to the behelit from Berserk but in no way shape or form an actual one because lolcopyright). If possible, I would like the on person sprite to swing, like the Chain of Command does.

The Parsnip could be a single use wirecutter. Get it? Parsnip? It could be insulated, given that it is single use.

Someone said earlier that the issue is people being able to deduce antag status and the like by even innocuous responses.

Wouldn't killing shitlers who got polymorphed and grief as a cow/xeno/syndiborg be the the exact same as people who use black slime on themselves as an excuse for LE GRIFF XD?

That is, dunk and forget about them?

Original skin, "15 brute damage" or "cry about it".

Which can be fixed with a bit of welding.

So if you fully augment yourself you take 120 damage...?

You can refill welding tanks, hit yourself while holding down pg down with the duck, or speed open your backpack for a similar effect.

Move all beacons to the toxins burn chamber. Set the teleporter up, then bolt open the door. Impersonate someone dead saying you've hacked the teleporter open and it leads to the AI sat.
