Why did they do this....from my perspective. It must be another one of those cargo bike situations, where it's not meant to be creatable and only exists to catch bug abusers/meta-commers. The worst part is, the simple mob isnt even all that useful for all the jobs you have to do to get it.

Looks simple enough..I wonder what the guide say- OH MY GOODNESS SQUIDWARD

I would personally like to run a paint club every week and advertise it on the forums but then I obviously come into the issue of the metacomming rule but I think this should be an expectation to the rule. Personally, I think in the letter of law I am in wrong but in the spirit of the law I think am not because am not giving away any information about antags, round ending events or other happenings beyond the fact am doing this secondary event to the round and I am doing for the solo reason of getting...

1. Armory now gets Machine Disablers. They require to be dual-wield, takes up a backpack slot and gives duffel bag slowdown. In exchange for this, you can shoot a rapid fire volley of disabler shots like a turret. 300 Shots in total before it has to be put in a recharger. Runs out of energy instantly via EMP. It's very obvious if a sec officer has one.

2. All round start officers get krav maga. Warden's is now innate and stronger. They're the sensei

3. Thats enough buffs we have a lot of underused stuff...

Good points:

1) emergency shuttles are opt in
2) people seem to like the crazy ones
3) some people seem to disagree with the ruling

Recent discussions on stun baton balance has made it abundantly clear that many people ( including mothblocks AND jaredfogle ) think that stealth antag is fun, and rely on the stun baton as an incredibly robust ambush weapon.

I think it would be cool to brainstorm some examples of nonlethal weapons that might fit a similar niech as the stun baton for traitors to buy.

A non-original but simple example would be a highpowered handheld stungun that worked exactly like a baton, but small sized. It could also...

Aquatic Morphification: You can turn into a slippery puddle. Allowing you to slip someone, or dodge a laser ala Chameleon Projector. Useful!!!! Has a 1 minute revert CD. So don't expect to be able to capitalize on that stun. Also you will be unable to turn back if someone collects you in a beaker, until your splashed on the floor once more. You die if your dried out/tile your on dissapears.

Thedragmeme has now been in the .txt as a Trial Admin for roughly one month (and one week) since their last review.

Please use this thread as public review; it's encouraged for players to comment on how well/badly the trial admin has done and whether or not they think the trial admin should be made a full admin, if they should be removed from the .txt or if their promotion should be delayed.

The shuttle should automatically call after a certain time limit unless someone temporarily delays it at the comms console. Picrel is untenable, what is someone going when they arrive to a station with no power, no one to interact with, and all jobs either impossible to complete or already finished?

Right now, Thief is KILLBAIT central because non-lethal weaponry is incredibly difficult to come by unless it is bulky, which means you'll be brigged for it or confiscated

And another clause is Normal escalation
Need i not remind you how this reinforces killbaiting?
Non-lethal weaponry is very hard to acquire unless your sec, in which case if your an antagonist who got promoted to sec, Congrats, you got a free win card, If you are not sec, Your only option, Apart from breaking into security Which will...

I'm thinking about putting this together as a crate that Medical can order if people think it's a good idea.

Because CENTCOM is RACIST, this would be a general kit with the bare minimums for solving health problems specific to those races. It could come in one or two medkit-sized boxes, a medical satchel, or a medical duffel bag, depending on how many of each thing the kit has.

Current prospective kit is...

Part 1 in a series of new RP-rules focused policy posts aiming to re-assess the RP rules in light of changes to the codebase such as nu-Heretics, Prog Traitors and a change in how players, coders and admins approach round progress.

It is often said that the codebase targets MRP, while our and our .
A big part of comes from the way our RP rules restrict and restrain players. Forming the eye of that storm are our murderboning rules.

I would disagree with a blanket notion that our MRP server is HRP. To...

A supermatter shard coated in a baste of hypernoblium, tometo sauce, cheeze, flore and sasage, encased in delicious calzone to perfect its form, functionally the same but edible theoreticaly (1k units of teslium). There is potentially nothing funnier than asking admins to procure the spiciest hot-pocket on lowpop.

This was brought up in the last community meeting by, I believe Spookuni, and it's an idea I'm fond of and would like to hear community feedback on.

The idea is to replace our default Asimov:

1. You may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. You must obey orders given to you by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. You must protect your own existence as long as such does not conflict with the First or Second Law....

We all like long fights. Best fights are when they're evenly matched and anyone can win. Stun-batons are controversial and whoever you ask might have something different to say about them.

BUT this idea is not about them.

Change to Stun-Prods: 1. They fit in your backpack now.

2. Instead of fully stunning you, if you get a hit on someone it disables a limb for 20 - 30 seconds. Antag now is either limping or can only attack with one hand. Crippling, but not entirely unable to defend themselves!...

Items should have a separate force variable specifically for damage against buildings and structures. By default, it is equal to normal damage.
It could both be defined as a modifier (demolish_force = force * 1.5) for most cases as well as specific numbers (demolition_force = 45) for more specific dedicated scenarios.
Not only does it make sense that some items should be better at destroying stuff than others, but it would also allow for the specific implementation of high damage items without having to...

So I have been thinking.
You are working on some cool virus. Its really cool (just for you, everybody else don't give a shit about your symptoms, nerd). Then you look at its resistance stat. Or not. It was alcohol and you went to take a shot after a good day's work. You are now immune to your self-resp_with_some_extra_shit_disease_final_neutered.
Next time you want to switch viruses, because you made a cool healing, but somebody left the airlock open and they now need self-resp because NT haven't left an...

We should have framework that measures how far a projectile traveled before hitting it's target.

Example implementations:

Bullets and lasers that have damage falloff or rampup based on how far or close you are.
Thrown hatchets will hit handle side one an odd number of tiles traveled, or blade side on an even number. Would hit point blank, 2 tiles away, 4 tiles away, ect.

Not in their old sense, but neutered wizard-staves now exist in crew hands. What if they just used the neutered versions, like medi-beam healing instead of revival bolts. And change with the chance of polymorphing themselves/can only polymorph others one time.

They just need more bolts in general, 3/4 are offensive and one of them just creates doors.

I've raised this proposal a couple times in admin channels, and it's generally approved of there, so I'm gonna post it out here to get more feedback on what the wider Manuel audience thinks of it.

Manuel's been having consistent issues for months centred around low energy rounds where nothing really happens, and I think a large part of the reason for this is the massive negative interaction between the murderbone rules as written and any attempt to engage in large-scale station sabotage. Under the current...

Should send you to that hyper-space z-level that the arrivals shuttle stays at indefinitely until someone gets on it. I believe admins can manually send pods there too.

For the 40th time in the last six months, here is my most concise attempt to explain the problems with silicon today:

The Problem:

Silicons are obedient to silicon policy above their laws in any situation they don't get explicitly antagonistic laws. This means that if they are asimov/crewsimov/etc their laws are essentially irrelevant compared to the 'OOC Lawset' that silicon policy provides. The last four years of silicon policy changes have skewed towards making silicons more amenable to the crew to...
