Just because it has counters doesn't mean it's suddenly okay. The fact that you need to specifically go to an autolathe and do a mass effort to clean it all is bullshit. Well if it is too much to ask that you fix it yourself, you could ask the janitor could do his job. He has brooms in the custodia...

go to the coders and ask them to introduce a countermeasure like a banana vacuum the janny can acquire or just beat the shit out of the clown for being an annoying asshole The countermeasures exist. You can either: Sweep them into a pile / into a disposal bin with the broom. Spray them with acid. T...

They yield far too much money.

No assistant should be able to buy a crate of combat shotguns after 10 min of picking trash.

These bounties grant too much money for trivial stuff. This means you can get loaded up with guns as any job within like 10 min. 3000 credits for a heart i can print roundstart at the medical lathe? That is 1.5 hellguns for like 10 seconds of work and half a metal sheet. Good bounties would be thing...

There is too much overlap between aggressive spread and rust wave. These abilities exist largely to support leeching walk, which is an ability that is substantially weaker than imperfect ritual and ashen passage. Mark of rust is useless and you feel bad spending two points on it, in contrast with th...

the curse rituals have potential to be unique and should be buffed They seem to be very powerful as is, especially curse of corrosion. The problem is that almost all jobs, and certainly the jobs you'd most want to hit spawn with, or quickly obtain gloves. If you want to hit a sec officer, you will ...

Heretic really hurts early on. They are given no tools and told to go kill people who can be significantly more powerful to the point where theres next to nothing you can do about them. Theres so few offensive abilities, and all of them tend to be at the very end of the paths The only ways to kill ...

I like his gaming garbage streams. I am going to ask him to play ss13.

I have been doing well as heretic, i think as the strategies get refined it will feel stronger. I really enjoy antagonists that start out with next to nothing, which is why i have always loved vampire. A few of the spells are kind of crappy though, but they could always be buffed if the meta becomes...

I agree with what RandolfTheMeh said. It would be good to be able to choose a target from some pool of players. Can't you make a new living heart and get a new target that way? I think heretic will get much stronger once people figure out how to play it. Here is some strategical pointers. *Get glov...

Some greytiding is essential to giving sec something to do that isn't super high stakes and prevents people from being able to metagame who is the antag.

I think the world we're living in now, it's much easier to get at people and hold them accountable via twitter-outrage than it is to stomp down the street and suck down a can of tear-gas fired at you by a police officer standing on top of an honest-to-fuck APC in the middle of our own streets. I am...

I've heard you can use a pressure cooker to sterilize medium.

I have enjoyed nations all 3 times Ive played it.

Absolutely based. The political process in America is fundamentally broken, this riot has a better chance of bringing real change in policing than voting for sleepy uncle Joe or whatever libcucks think the solution is. Riots have a long history of working, but in America only blacks seem to have eno...

Ahana. She used to try to kill and space the HoS John Irish every other round on old Terry as non-antag. Also joined on an alt with a nearly identical appearance just to flamethrower grief the shuttle while denying it was her doing it. She was simultaneously the most aggressive player who would beat...

Tide is essential for giving antagonists cover and giving sec something to do that isn't high stakes validhunting. Tide can be excessive at sometimes, and that when admins should step in to empower sec to deal with the problem by spawning equipment, authorizing the death penalty for tiding or sendin...

you're not being clever when you're easily disproven, retard The titular "Alabama nigger" is clearly cast as a virtuous and sympathetic person by lines 3 and 4 of the song. "I dont drink" "I dont cuss" Line 5 and 8 of the song states respectively: "I wanna ride on...

I don't see how the song is racist.

The song is about a dignified southern gentleman of colour expressing his desire for clean Christian living and civil rights without involving the northern race hustling carpetbaggers of the NAACP.

After some more playing and refining my strategies i no longer need any chems from outside of the nutrimax. I think this rework has been great so far since it got rid of chem spam which was tedious and gaia trays which felt cheap. It is a bit harder to make super death plants which i think is a good...

sounds like you rely on chemicals still I don't think relying on chems is bad as long as the dispenser doesn't come back as meta. I make ash myself from paper and take multiver and cryox from public areas in medbay if i need it. I might buy a bottle of ammonia from the vendor occasionally. I don't ...

I have not needed any chems outside of 90u mutagen from chemist at round start. I tried a mutagen-less build with radium but this did not work since it killed all treated plants very quickly even with multiver, ash, water and diethylamine treatment. Maybe i need to use 5u instead of 10u radium or mi...

Box has a few things going for it such as less resource bloat and some interesting weak points in walls and such. However one huge problem with box for me is the maint. It is bad, folks, like really bad. It feels barren and soulless. Especially compared to the pubby, delta and kilo maints. Many of t...

One good idea we can steal from paradise is to allow the psychologist to help demote people who after a good faith determination are declared to be unfit to serve. If a head is ooc ick'ing, self harming or randomly attacking people you should be legally allowed to chloral them and put them in a stra...

Hello?

We can already print 100u spray bottles from the medilathe.

Preferably botany would handle the generation of reagents, and chemistry would have the tools to convert the dirty sample (blended plants) into medicines. Atmos could liquefy gases to produce nitrogen and oxygen. Engineering could spent lots of power to electrolyse sea salt bought from cargo to cre...

I don't hang out with retards who determines a person worth by if they adhere to American liberal etiquette. This is an extremely petty note but please don't call left-wing progressives "Liberals", they have far more in common with actual unironic crypto-fascists A liberal used to be some...

It is conduct. The conduct is violating rule 1 (Don't be a dick) by using slurs. Nope, this a fringe interpretation of rule 1. Saying a slur would probably get you fired at work. Nope, not everyone lives in the American nightmare realm. I wouldn't even get a written warning. If your friends are dec...

you would almost never run into situations where the economy would handicap your core gameplay after 10 minutes, which goes against your stated design expectations for economy. That said, once the shift hits 20 minutes in the post budget cards environment we have in-game, you will never find yourse...

it doesn't mean anything to you either, unless you're an assistant. Not true at all if you have some imagination. There is something for everyone in the cargo catalogue, and certain jobs like medical and botany have things they want in their vendor. The solution is to move and add new stuff to the ...

One thing i liked about the cash system was it did drive some rp, and people often handed credits over to tip service workers. Yes, and i was able to buy monkeys cubes from botany, sell bounty items to cargo, or sell stolen goods. Economy does if work if you actually try to use it, and it is workin...

Welcome back to a world where everyone no mater the job has a full toolbelt and the chef's food goes uneaten because people would rather eat raisins.

It is important to point out that oranges has never tested Arcane*s new economy improvements. I know this since he has only 20 min alive in the last 30 days. This comes of as incredibly heavy handed and is not without it's own set of problems. This is a great shame as i enjoy the economy system and ...

Sleep stacks like in drowsiness? Or sleep proper?

Drowsiness is huge shitcode.

One idea is making is making chocolate cause disgust and mild organ damage to felinids.

It is already too easy to get organs with the new round start cybernetics, a sad side effect is that upgraded cybernetic organs never get researched anymore. Another tactic you can use is buying a few monkey cubes from botany. Monkey cubes are their own issue, i would love to see them made hard to o...

A previous headmin ruling declared that putting fusion gases into the supermatter is a form of exploit or bug abuse. This is ruling makes little sense to me since the maintainers have stated that this feature is working as intended. Do you plan to reversing this ruling? If you think this tactic shou...

There was a headmin ruling some time ago that banned the release of funny or annoying viruses, even if those viruses are technically helpful by warding off harmful viruses due to their high resistance. I think this was a shame as it was a long honoured virology tradition and something that never bot...

I think box would be tolerable to me if it was updated to have a better maint.

Even paradise has a better version of box. The /tg/ version just feels old and sad.

which needs ash which ALSO needs heating to make. Heating oil is not a sensible way of making ash, burning paper is way faster, easier and doesn't consume any energy. One paper bin yields 900u ash. That being said, there is no point to granubitaluri. The chems i think are worth diluting are typical...

I was the chemist who gave the clown a metric ton of lube this round.

Some time later the clown was captur...

As for organs, the trick is to just replace the chest organs and feed them oculine + inacusate to revive eyes and ears. Or swap heads with a prepared corpse. Toxin damage can easily be treated with syriniver, a 40% syriniver solution in an IV-drip heals 5 toxin damage(!) per cycle but requires caref...
