There is already a PR that is working towards fixing this issue, move along. And yes, throwing bottles to auto-inject reagents into people is stupid, but that's mostly a problem with touch reactions defaulting to injecting reagents.

Ergovisavi

It's almost like the AI being an near omniscient being is terrible gameplay.

Crazy idea, that.

That was never the case. You simply never gained or lost them at any point short of direct intervention.

Either way calm yer tits, I'm going to buff it.

Ergovisavi

The reason they're burning out is because you're not applying large amounts of fire stacks to them before setting them on fire. Fire is no longer a perpetual state, but one that slowly ticks away at your fire stacks until you eventually burn out of them. That said, the burn rate might be a little to...

As someone with coder buttons, I don't press them unless an admin requests something to be pressed, or I'm actively investigating something weird going on. I didn't go through the admin process, and don't feel like anyone who didn't or isn't held to those responsibilities should be hitting buttons t...

You can't remove the ayylien organs from them. And it's not a disease, filling them with reagents won't cause the problem to go away.

The cure is death.

If you, as an antagonist, dragged out a bunch of slimes from Xenobio, you would've been valid. The only method of stopping you from flooding the station with slimes that are hostile to humans is to murder you.

In the end, the shuttle ended up full of slimes. That were attacking people.

Whoever runs the servers holds the power... MSO could spawn himself as wizard every round and it'd be within his right to do so. I'd quit playing on the server, but it's his every right, and as a result, he has last say on any decision in regards to the server itself, since he holds the keys to it a...

If we're going to do this, Hot air should take another hit. It's a shit mechanic. Far less interesting than a roaring inferno.

Ergovisavi

Aimless off topic rambling aside... I'm all for someone editing the amount of TC's if they go in and inspect the TC cost of every single item in order to ensure that nothing falls off the map and/or creates new issues, and if you want to do it so bad Oldman, do it yourself. A blanket increase is jus...

I literally can barely tell the difference between the old system and the new system. You still don't get hungry for a bazillion years, and the bonuses for eating well are fairly lackluster. Add in the fact that syndi-cakes are still bullshit overpowered...

There is no method currently available in the game to heal stamina damage other than the passive regeneration you constantly have going, or sleeping. I added it to my PR, but since this one was added instead, changelings are fucked.

!!SCIENCE!! needs to be done.

That's because his inherent stamina recovery probably gave him enough ticks inbetween shots

Fun fact, paprika changed disablers to be children of lasers, as opposed to having the energy flag they used to, so it now checks against laser protection Everything and their mother has laser protection, making disablers laughably useless. Good job paprika. HoP's cap has 50% laser resistance, so ev...

Looking into this further, this is the result of people ghosting while alive. Your mind datum is still attached to your old body, and so you are not considered for candidacy.

Ergovisavi

This code has not been touched since the 19th of September, and you can only get that message if there aren't enough ghosts. The available ghosts either had their Wizard preference turned OFF, or were antag banned.

Ergovisavi

I find it odd that people complain about running out of healing as a miner, when there's A) A medkit, B) An enemy type designed explicitly for the purpose of functioning as a health pack.

One bruise pack is all you need on the asteroid.

Ergovisavi

Murdering everyone on the station because of magboots? Fine, go for it. Makes the game scarier.

Murdering everyone on the station because of magboots, and then ALSO recalling the shuttle repeatedly just to be a huge dick? Not cool, please ban.

Ergovisavi

Murderbonering is fine, SS13 without it is dull, as the sense of paranoia is quicky, quickly lost.

The one thing that isn't fine is repeatedly recalling the shuttle while also murderbonering. You've had your fun, time to move on with the round.

If you're so angry about chem implants, go to chemistry and make some of your own... Seriously, it's not that hard to get 20 units of synap, 10 units of hyperzine, and 20 units of tricord or DD and make yourself a chem implant you can pop to robust the crime dogs. Except that's not how it works. Ad...

If someone is effectively immune to stuns, they're either A) A syndicate operative with an adrenal implant, B) A changeling, C) A hulk. If you're incapable of nonlethally detaining someone, lasering them to crit has always been okay.

Ergovisavi

I may well be wrong but I feel that Ergo's overhaul was born out of frustration with the current system and only looks so far as to remove stuns from the game, and not far enough into the ramifications of such a act. And where, exactly, did I not look? Stuns don't go away. There's still there. They...

Ergovisavi

Obviously, catching everything in the game at first glance is pretty hard, and the PR isn't finished yet.

Currently double checking everything works correctly, and investigating on what to do with disarm intent, among other things.

The gibbed bits will be poisonous! That is... so convoluted yet plausible for murder... If you want to take this a bit further, you can do some silly stuff. Take corpse.

How do I roll on ground to extinguish fire? Resist button It also gets you out of sleeper buttons in 1 click, and if you spam it enough, can get you out of cryo tubes. Yes I know I asked only about fire. Do I need to rest on ground first? Clicking the little button will do it, you don't have to lay...

There's already a fix PR up, keep thine pants on

Also, tragic as this is, it's also fucking hilarious.

Ergovisavi

We could just use "sapient" instead.

Ergovisavi

A chemical can't revive people because corpses don't process chemicals.

Ergovisavi

Spraybottles and Guns work like extinguishers do for propelling you through places without gravity.

Which means the Proto-Kinetic Accelerator is an infinite charge space maneuvering tool. Useful.

Ergovisavi

If we're talking about complexity, most of the station fails fairly hard (honk) in that regard. Jobs are generally based on a combination of two things: 1. Rote memorization of information 2. RNG Part of this problem is because introducing UI to support stranger mechanics is difficult, but a lot of ...

Ergovisavi

As for when things are "hard enough?" Good hard is things like new-mining. You have a risk vs reward mechanic, and the job is difficult but not same-y. I find it funny you should mention this, as the person who changed it, I find the current state of mining to be really, really bad. It's ...

Remember when NTstation did voting

Where is NTstation now again?

Hmmm.

Coders should respond to feedback and do so without dick waving, but MUH VOTING isn't viable.

So yesterday, I got turned into a statue mob by a wizard with a staff of animation. I proceeded to kill at least 10 people, and demolish a decent amount of the station. Eventually, it wore off, and I became a normal crewmember, and even eventually killed the wizard with my fireaxe. Can station crew ...

Please make an issue report on Github, where this kind of stuff is supposed to go.

If it's an obvious bug or SEEMS like a bug, make an issue report.

Right, because slipcult mass conversion in a hallway wasn't the easiest way to handle things.

I think constructs make cult more interesting, the more asymmetrical gameplay we have, the better, in my opinion.

How to defib: They must have LESS than 180 Burn damage, LESS than 180 brute damage, (They can have 179 brute and 179 burn and still be resuscitated) it must not have been more than three minutes since they last died.

Remove and replace with meaningful rooms is what I meant. Here's a question for you; What is a meaningful room? 1) A room that contains a robust item? 2) A room that contains something that would disrupt the standard round? 3) A room that has a massive gamechanging object? If it's 1, do we really n...

The distance that space lube throws you is completely irrelevant, if it moved you zero tiles, it'd still be overpowered. The reason that space lube is overpowered is because it puts all the action on the person using it. There's no counterplay. There is no possible way the player who slips on it cou...

Space lube has always been a terrible (if hilarious in certain contexts) mechanic, and I find it pretty funny that few people complained about it. Lube has always been overpowered. An invisible, incredibly long stun that can't be blocked by anything? It's just a bad game mechanic. Every nook ops rou...

So when I did a quick pass over the artifact rooms previously, I tried to make them a little bit better by adding some items that might be valuable.

firesuits are going to be nerfed btw, they will only reduce fire damage (unless you're wearing an ADVANCED firesuit that is available in atmos).
