Like you could add sergals or something shameless like that.

Not that Id be an advocate for it.

What's your fursona? Mine's Kilrathi.

Lumbermancer

Jesus Christ no.

Lumbermancer

But sos wasn't banned right? He just left when host changed?

Lumbermancer

Why not go back to Star Trek naming convention?

Lumbermancer

Here's a case for you to study from 2 days ago: I'm the Captain. I go to brig, because Warden (and acting HoS) is yelling on security channel at AI to not let people in because they don't want to leave. I arrive to see 4 or 5 people sitting in chairs they crafted in front of Warden's office. "F...

Lumbermancer

I never had issues with Bluespace or Boris Pepper. Admin ban is legitimate for abuse, but perma ban?

Lumbermancer

Well personally I suck at tabling because of ping pong :3

Lumbermancer

I didn't have much problems with nerfed pen. You just have to be more considerate, prick in more secluded areas if you can, and try to stop your target from running too far away. Disarming, tabling helps.

I don't mind it. It's not an instant kill anymore, even without c4.

Lumbermancer

Those are great. HoS with undercoat and cap looks like Imperial Commissar.

Lumbermancer

Servo Skull drones when?

Lumbermancer

Homogenization is bad.

Lumbermancer

If you want objectives to matter, create some sort of public scoreboard that would tally up greentext. Bitches love scoreboards and epeen waving, and it would have added benefit of preventing murderboner with objective to reduce collateral damage.

Lumbermancer

Make it capture the flag. Agent that gets the documents of opposite side has to send them to Syndicate HQ somehow, who wins gets the Nuke Ops raid sent on the station.

Lumbermancer

Do you think robotics will handle the additional load of making prosthetics for each inevitably amputated limb of every person? What about the possible prolonged handicap of lacking limb if there will be no means to get you a new one?

Lumbermancer

What if we split melee damage into more subtypes, i.e. blunt, cut, pierce or something. Same with bullet damage: HP, FMJ. Default revolver ammo could be Hollow Points, less effective against armor, more effective against flesh.

Lumbermancer

Remember when Lizards was janitor "only", and not 50% of the station?

Lumbermancer

How about instead of removing Tommyguns completely, enable them only after takeover countdown started. And maybe make them bit cheaper.

Is the dominator coutdown even binary, i.e. either gang takes over or they don't and game ends, or does the round keep going even if they lose?

Lumbermancer

Give gangs some kind of expensive prototype gun to disable people's implants. We can pretend it's Shadowrun.

Lumbermancer

just make it bannable to metagame based off clothing.

That's dumb. Gangs are IC knowledge, like every game mode. If gang presence is confirmed, you best be sure every person wearing GANG COLOURS will get frisked.

Lumbermancer

Don't you think system where you can lose limbs in combat, instead through separate deliberate action (amputation) only, will be abused as hell?

"The Clown kept slipping and honking me, so I robusted him few times, but then his arm fell off. Well he can't honk now.".

Lumbermancer

I guess with the "dominator" or whatever it's called, tommy guns make more sense. Still i'd like to see more emphasis put on melee and improvised weaponry. Maybe give them unique crafting recipes. Maybe give them some kind of expensive prototype weapon that disables loyalty implants.

Lumbermancer

Those Tommyguns are ridiculously strong, stronger than LMG probably. What was the reasoning behind them? It's not like stechkins are inadequate for gang on gang violence, are they meant to be used on sec? Doesn't that go against the spirit of the mode?

No, only at the speed of Byond.

Lumbermancer

Which is which? SWAT is the the large covering whole face, and regular is the one covering mouth only?

I like the normal gas mask more, because It looks more badass.

Lumbermancer

on sybil everyone strips you down to your jumpsuit often taking away even the headset and bucklecuffs you even when setting the timer to 2 minutes Good, that's the procedure that guarantees safety, IF they uncuff you after time is set. Try doing it without bucklecuffing, lets see how many times you...

Really? I've been using them wrong the whole time.

How is it more tedious? It works exactly the same.

Lumbermancer

People want the game to be more lethal.

Lumbermancer

Make gauze the only way to stop bleeding (except maybe CPR). Gauze on wounded limb stops bleeding temporarily until healed. Problem solved. Maybe make some ghetto gauze to temporarily top bleeding as well, from sheets or paper.

Lumbermancer

Yeah, let's protect the humanity from itself by locking down the armory.

Why, people complain AI is an instant bolt lock down machine, this would remove the "instant" part.

Remove keyboard shortcuts for door operation.

I remember that Thing Person was stripped of his rank and perma'd few days ago as a Warden, for leaving Brig to murder innocent people (hippy protesters) to get his valids on.

Lumbermancer

Does the nuke team leader seem to be working out all that well to you? From what I seen, Spec Op leaders always had big say in tactics and gear used. I think you underestimate how many people are willing to follow orders, if they are given by someone competent. At worst the incompetence will result...

Lumbermancer

Mulligan would be better if there was a 5 or 10 (or random) minute cooldown between killing of "main antag" and server distributing then new tators among the population. I think it would help the flow of the round. People wouldn't instantly scramble to exploit the chaos and destruction cau...

Lumbermancer

When you consider that traitor-type rounds tend to last much longer

If it wasn't for traitor I wouldn't even queue for civilian jobs for that very reason.

Lumbermancer

Ok. Answer me this: How do Plasmamen heal? You say liquid plasma rapidly heals them, is that all what heals them? How is it applied? Through space suit? Given the attitude of coders towards those, I doubt it. Or are you saying the plasma vapors they breathe heal them as well? Do they eat? If so, wha...

Lumbermancer

I don't know, you're the coder.

Lumbermancer

This would be a great addition, yes please. Since it's on the topic of blocking stuff a headset jammer would be a cool new traitor item too. i will have to veto this because i cannot think of a way to code this that won't be extremely awful. use EMPs or something. Goon has something like this. You ...

Let it be known I predicted this happening last year, and was accused of slippery sloping.

But no, it's a shitty idea. It will affect the gameplay and flow of the round too much.

Lumbermancer

Thanks. I'll be a good drone from now on.

Lumbermancer

Yes, since I was pointed to wiki which neatly explains that "Please realize that upkeep is not the same as prevention.". And details it using the bomb example, which is the same situation I found myself in.

Resprite something that actually need respriting, like laser guns held by character. I know it's less fun but oh well.

It's the beginning of the end. All is lost.

Recently as security, detective especially, I've been stopping suspects in the halls/etc. for logical confrontations, leaving them uncuffed and unstunned, while providing an argument that would logically lead to their guilt, rather than tazing them outright. If they bolt or make any funny moves (st...

think how many round start suicides there would be if you force filled security. It's not about making people play sec, it's making the right kind of player WANT to play security, It's not about forcing people to play sec, but filling the quota. Right now, for example. 62 players on server. I had b...
