Re: Goonstation's full code got leaked.
I've just started looking through it, but it turns out that the coders put in a fake recipe for the megasecretchem Initropidril, that if performed in-game, would be indistinguishable from the real thing other then failing 80% of the time and giving a weaker effect. That's a dick move clearly designe...

Re: Stories of rage, tears and regret
I was on the /vg/ server and went into R&D to get myself and someone else a bag of holding. I went to the bar to wait for him and at some point I wanted to get something out of my bag. I wasn't paying attention to which hand was active and made a baguloth, resulting in total destruction of the s...

Balance idea for the AI
Just some ideas I've had floating around on how to balance the AI and make it not so omnipotent. These can be taken as one big change or picking and choosing ideas that seem good. Let me know if they're terrible. AI can no longer track people with cameras. Having to manually locate people makes it s...

Re: Turn the AI off for a week
Another idea: let the AI use the camera systems and do non-physical things like make announcements, but remove the door bolting and machinery-accessing ability when it's in camera mode. Give it either one or multiple stations throughout the map that it can click on to spawn as a borg that can do the...

Re: Turn the AI off for a week
Also, just my two cents, but I've played the game off and on for a number of years. Maybe I've just been lucky, but every time I've been antag I haven't had the AI power game so hard that I thought it needed to be removed because being an antag is too difficult with one around.

Re: Turn the AI off for a week
Don't know where else to post this, but when/if you add the AI back, here's a balance idea: remove the ability to track people with cameras. That way it couldn't just say "X is suspicious but I don't know where he is. I'll track him so I know exactly where he is."

Re: Utter lack of AI
So the way it's currently working is that the heads of staff all have a device that lets them operate doors like an AI. The problem with this is that they don't have lawsets that keep them from bolting people like the mime into a room with no way out, which is exactly what happened to me.

Re: Stories of rage, tears and regret
Someone really needs to greentext out that nuke ops round from last night where they got stuck in the AI satellite for 30 minutes instead of getting the unsecured disk, one died because he forgot to set internals, and one kept using C4 to open doors instead of the emag he had.

Re: Stories of rage, tears and regret
Also a random funny tidbit: I checked the AI's laws at some point and it had an additional fourth law that specifically said not to let any unauthorized people into the AI core, but all I did to get it to let me in was ask it to go on an adventure with me.

Being a ghost and watching a Xenobiologist breeding slimes manually instead of using the consoles is probably my biggest pet peeve. It doesn't happen often but when it does I feel like screaming at my screen.

Small, easy change to gold slime extracts?
If the time between injecting a gold slime extract and having the mobs spawn could be increased just by a few seconds it would be a huge help to Xenobiology. I like housing non-slimes in the extra holding chamber. With the current spawn time, there's just slightly too little time to inject the extra...
