What on earth would a winning condition look like? Ascending into beings of pure energy? If you just dislike the emergency shuttle because the flavor is wrong, add a "Call Return Shuttle" button that sends a shuttle that just shuttles employees back home at the end of their shift. Somethi...

OFQ

Gonna save some shuttle calls from Manuel for the reference: People just got bored: The emergency shuttle has been called. It will arrive in 10 minutes. Nature of emergency: 4 to 1 vote. This station is a fucking vile mess of bile and bodily fluids that makes me sick to my stomach, this place is a f...

OFQ

Hmm. Well thanks I'll check it when I have an opportunity. Maybe I missed it the last time.

OFQ

Wiki says that an abductor scientist can scan a gland to learn its true name. But poking a gland with a tool on scanning mode seems to do nothing. How do I do this

OFQ

So basically this is why I propose to perform an experiment on Manuel. When the admeme online the shuttle call button gets disabled and instead all shuttle calls happen via CentCom communication. Then the admeme, as a game master, can either approve it right away, send in an inspector, send ERP inst...

OFQ

Consider the fact that despite the shuttle being an "easy counter" to some of the gameplay, the crew still winds up on the losing end of said gameplay approximately 50% of the time. Cult in specific even has a counter to their counter. Like I said. If the crew won't have an easy way out t...

OFQ

AI policy, that unecessary shuttle calls can be considered harmful to humans due to the stress caused by the evacuation (I'm actually rather certain that the current rules allow the AI to argue an unecessary shuttle call as harmful using the reasoning I just provided). That's kind ... :roll: I woul...

OFQ

Usually when people call it "too early" they mean that the shuttle was called to early in the particular crisis that station currently undergo. Like skoglol said it can be abused as a way to deal with cult, benos etc. In the case of the blob it's even worse since the shuttle allows to test...

OFQ

Good to know. Thanks

OFQ

That's kinda offshoot from https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=25406 where we discuss how any SM malfunction usually ends up in a shuttle call. But there are a lot more things like this. For example, cult or benos infistation. The problem of premature shuttle calls can be addressed...

OFQ

What is the range on Mindshock Gland mass brain washing? Won't abductors self-brainwash accidentally? I'm kinda spooked to use it

OFQ

Heads, sec and silicons are armed. That's 10-15 players at the server(RP) with 50 players cap. Where's even USA military is like 0.5%

OFQ

Well... Killing all the monkeys and augmenting shitsec/heads with a cyborg chests can be a good final solution to the benos problem. But combat mech/plasma/maxcap also works. Besides https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=25367 The thing is that the crew usually disorganized + everyo...

OFQ

The problem can be addressed at the broth ends. Making situations that have 99% chance to end in a shuttle call more manageable (unless it's a total disaster like a tesloose or singuloth) but also punishing/preventing questionable shuttle calls by: 1. Removing AI shuttle call and borg ability to red...

This could work

This surgery should make you valid

Actually I feel like even suggesting it makes you valid

OFQ

Are you threatening him

OFQ

Calling people "dent skulls" is RP and should be fine

OFQ

Clicking someone's groin on grab intent should feed felinids and provide mood boost to the target

Ha! I expected the link to Communist manifesto.

So like, when the first season of 2020 pro league starts?

OFQ

The fact that shuttle allays getting called when SM explodes is kinda more annoying joke than the title of the thread. Not only it sucks for the rest of the station but it also makes engies feel anxiety about experimenting with SM and engies feelings meter the most. On top of this it sucks for SM sa...

OFQ

What if you had to clean solars from the space dust once in a while to keep peak performance and they can be upgradable with better parts

OFQ

To all casual players I would like to remind you that we already have cryogenics that knocks you out and many people prefer it over being cell damaged half-abortion or even getting treated by your average medbey tider. Besides, if someone does argumentation surgery on you it's not like you are havin...

OFQ

Anesthesia is an awful idea because it makes the already unfun surgery system even worse. The result would be one person alt tabbing and the other just silently clicking. Before there was the possibility of conversation. The reason why no one complains about anesthesia in real life is because anest...

OFQ

All damn Fortnite players.

OFQ

Since TG station now has RP server I would say requiring anesthesia for an invasive surgery should be mandatory. It can be promoted by giving people PTSD if they weren't knocked out during the surgery. It will add more RP around the idea that someone may not want it since the surgeon might be shifty...

OFQ

I'm pretty sure you can swap brains between species

OFQ

Actually, they can cheese plasma injector by placing resin wall on top of it. It might be a problem. But it can be prevented with some preparation like a couple of fallback injectors and electrocuted grills on top of them.

OFQ

They are also not meltable so that it's actually possible to contain xenos like in xenobio. Perhaps a solution would be to make it to where reinforced walls can be melted but it 1) takes a really long time and 2) the acid can be wiped off from either side of the wall. This would mean you can't just...

OFQ

Just borg everyone (c) Malf AI

OFQ

I think reinforced walls aren't melt-able due to away missions shenanigans. If so, there is no reason too keep them that way when the missions disabled

OFQ

Also when crew hears alart about aliems the'll ask AI if it can see viro or evcen if viro airlock working and if not simply go around this room and cut all air pipes and disposals. Xeno wouldn't even have time to react since breaking your own walls and melting airlocks takes more time than building ...

Outline can be 50 shades darker...

Ok just end me.

OFQ

The RGB color code of this mob should be 50/50/50, prove me wrong.

OFQ

Another option is adding a cyborg booth with a special engineering cyborg in it. When SM integrity is below N% it unlocks and releases the cyborg that has advanced fire extinguisher and maybe better radiation/zap protection. But it could be a big nerf to sabotage since the ghost that possessed the c...

I'm thinking more like looney ops spawn, in space near SM because ERP team takes too long to assemble, find the shuttle shutters button.

OFQ

You need them when entering running SM core. Also for pressure differences around space holes. I would actually make them easier to obtain at the round start since fixing SM without them is real hard. Not sure if they help against gravitation anomalies but they sure do help when you want to use fire...

OFQ

Given that a random SM delamination is the bane of all autistic projects around the station since it ends up with a shuttle call I propose adding a new mid round spawn role. THE LAMINATOR - Nanotrasen employ that an active admeme can choose to spawn if no one trying to fix damn SM. It will be real u...

OFQ

It looks like if someone hits SM and gets dusted while SM isn't cooled at all it will only spawn anomalies without any slimes till it explodes. Not sure if it's good or bad. But it is pretty frequent delaminaiton on lowpop.

OFQ

mmm Who is Bueller?

OFQ

It's pretty easy to accidentally tesloose (and it is ok) I protected everything from slimes and anomalies with plasma glass and reinforced floors but I pumped too much co2 and SM started to get hot so I had to go in and pump it out but f-ing slimes camped the valve

OFQ

Surrounding rods, emitters and all that meters with directional reinforced plasma windows + reinforcing floors where wires are makes slimes and anomalies pretty harmless. So maybe the spawn rate is ok. I had safe run on Event Hall(forgot to cover wires so slimes vored em): https://i.imgur.com/mHJEgj...

And it keeps repeating until someone clears the chute

OFQ

Department nerds often don't check their delivery boxes so some kind of an extremely noticeable indicator near delivery chute could be helpful. Maybe also second one at the department head place.

OFQ

Yeah also it seems like anomalies and slimes are less of a trouble with this delem. I only saw some sparky things but it use to be much worse with like slimes and stuff ( or am I f-ing delusional

)

OFQ

Do you mind if i use some of your sprites for arc related things by the way? Sure :D Have you been using the supermatter monitor? That could help ya tell what's changing. Also sure. So I did a couple of runs and it seems that since the round start to singuloth spawn in takes around 6 minutes 40 sec...

OFQ

I have no idea what was that but now it's all ok. Hmm. Also the "dangerous power level" message is back. And venting gas allowed me to make tesloose. Now I'm confused. I guess I'll try couple more times. I might f-up dream daemon somehow. I remember that the load time also was surprisingly...

OFQ

Btw. How hard will it be to get an accidental tesloose now?
