They were there because the SM delaminated and was about to explode, with more power than a regular delamination but not enough to cause a tesla. But instead of explode, it gave the crew one last chance to salvage it.

The point was to complete the event and through this restore the SM.

Then uh, you know. Don't delam the SM to the point of explosion. This event now has a chance to trigger past a certain power threshold, increasing in chance up to the point a tesla delam would happen, at which point tesla delam takes priority.

In general, if you have a setup - Either hardware of software - Where you doing a single input sends multiple inputs to the game, you're probably cheating. Autoclickers are cheating. Using gaming keyboards, AHK, etc. etc. to play back sequences of button presses automatically is cheating. If you're ...

The question is what level of this is acceptable? Is the free golems converting one of their own to an AI, who then as soon as possible builds a bluespace teleporter to teleport up to the station, raid tech storage with their AA and quantum pad back down acceptable? Speaking as a maintainer, it feel...

A proper G. Hopped onto Manuel to handle a ticket backlog when JusticeGoat was AFK and I was cooking. Polite and courteous in each of these dealings.

How would that work if the mime can't yell FYUUUU SHUNNNN HAAAA?

To be fair, the OP was complaining about roboticists that only aug and make (combat) mechs then stomping around.the station in their mechs in the opening post. That is literally two of the three things that a roboticist does. I do not believe doing 2/3rds of your job to be anything but an IC issue. ...

You can do that in the first 10 minutes of the round. You can pop back after half an hour to make a couple of posibrains that won't pop and a couple of BORIS modules to put in shells that you'll end up storing in the borg chargers after they never get used for the rest of the shift. This is MRP. Rob...

The problem isnt that they're messing around with the cool fun bonuses, the problem is that they refuse to do any of their actual important stuff, like if the engineers refused to set up the SM because they were desigining their brand new floating minisat to build. What is the actual important stuf...

You'll probably find the issue that robotics is an incredibly shallow job most of the time. You'd think that roboticists would be busy as hell but... What do you think their job is? If nobody wants to be augmented, or if people head to medbay for implants, all that's left is building borgos and mech...

remove admin and host pick when? they only exist to make admin complaints and policy take 2 months to resolve Maybe would argue that there should be more obligation to do things in a reasonable manner since you're expected as an admin to answer your own appeal threads in a reasonable manner. like, ...

People are absolutely right that some modes aren't working right now - the problem here is that these modes are a prisoner's dilemma. Cult for example - To work on MRP, both the crew and the cult need to RP. If the cult starts peacefully approaching people, there's a very real chance that the perso...

New RP ruleset additions state "8. Do not powergame. Powergaming is gearing up or preparing in other ways to face an issue that is not related to your job. A doctor stocking up on a massive amount of medical chemicals is fine, but an engineer grabbing weapons to defend themselves when there is ...

the only official ruling on the rules pages is "Do not self-terminate to prevent a traitor from completing the "Steal a functioning AI" objective. " There's also "AI suiciding to prevent subversion" on https://tgstation13.org/wiki/Headmin_Rulings from uh... 2016. KorPh...

From what I have seen, blast radius necessary for almost all cores is around 6. You're flat out limited to creating hard cap maximum of 8 of each core. Each anomaly core made of the same type requires an increasingly powerful blast radius. Off the top of my head, the final bomb of a given core type...

Rock is free!

I'm feeling a lot of emotions based upon the fact that everyone plays detective to arrest people on manuel and they always get mad at me when I refuse to give them sechuds and now when I'm secbanned I'm not banned from detective Banned for murdering/validhunting when he didn't murder or validhunt. ...

Because Aura made that dumbfuck peanut earlier today, I decided I'd be powered by spite and get to the truth of what happened in this round. Dove in the logs. Posted logs and events in chronological order in the ban appeal. Crusaders take over Chapel -> Crusaders attack Constanze and Bobby Beeswax -...

Aura is rapidly giving out the aura of an admin who doesn't give a fuck about doing a good job and contributing to make the community a better place. One ban appeal, one flippant remark dismissing it. One admin complaint, one flippant remark dismissing it. Makes their own peanut thread to make fun o...

Wow. Coconut was prophetic in his merging of the two peanuts if Rave called @manuel-min in to effect the ban.

Thing that pisses me off is Aura takes 11 minutes from the appeal being posted to give their snide, elitist remark. Now it's been shown through admin log diving that theres no ressonable grounds for the ban, with Aura trying to get the Chaplain to rat Issy Lizzy out at the instigator when the Chapla...

Those ahelp logs between Aura and the Chaplain are so damning for that appeal. [2020-06-22 02:58:05.473] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-Ivory)->Tanachi/(Constanze Morschaff): Alright, so a bunch of shit went down, so can you explain what happened to you about the crusaders? ...

To revive this from the dead, my ban appeal was closed before I could get a headmin's second opinion. https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=26736 I would personally argue that even with the context of what was going on, I just silently walked to the chapel and suicided, and would al...

Counter issue is requiring two people for geneticists to utilise their own job. Make sure you don't turn Genetics into a job where the person doing the job can't properly benefit from the fruits of their own labours. Additionally, from an MRP/Manuel perspective, don't turn Genetics in to a job where...

As much as I am not in the mood to deal with the admin complaint that I knew was coming. I was hoping to wait till all the appeals were either complete or bans were completed. You banned 19 people. I've been trying to compose this since my own personal ban was served. I should have prefaced my post...

Often on during Manuel lowpop hours. Regularly has to stop what he's doing in-game to manage ahelps, which he does quickly and efficiently. Pls keep.

Looks like my ban has now been reduced to a day. It's better than it was and I appreciate that however, stereotypical segue into why I don't fully appreciate it, I'm still not impressed that I got a day ban for choosing to suicide in the chapel instead of suiciding anywhere else on the station. http...

Appreciated. Thank you for the quick response.

I know this was one of the main reasons for the ban, people gathering in the chapel to mass suicide in OOC and you were one of the people who joined. It's not the whole story to change the note to "Suicide on round start as a non-command role." https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/59028...

I am like 99% certain that the strange potion used to change your displayed species to "angel". Still, the point is that medical scanners do not show you as human (and instead a human-derived mutant). Getting cat ears sewn on doesn't change this, so you'd still be human. When in doubt, re...

I posted on the PR but I'll cross post here. Toxins has been switched up a bit with this change. Tritium is a lot harder to come by and you'll almost certainly need more O2 to get what you need if you follow the existing Toxins steps of 3 can O2, 1 can trickle feed plasma. (Following this step I nee...

Simple question. Is forced pacification surgery human harm in the context of Asimov Law 1? Someone willingly accepting pacification surgery is fine, I'd classify that in the same definition of "self-harm is not harm" and includes wanting to be borged and willingly asking to be executed. If...

If you're also going to argue freedom of speech, where does ERP cross the line that racism doesn't? Are you implying that calling Kat Green gamer words and AFKing so you can text fuck other 40 year old sweaty dudes is the same thing?

Go back in time 5 and a half years to discussion regarding the old Rule 8. All the quotes in the spoiler tag below are from people talking about ERP and not racism.

A very simple discussion - Could AI lawsets be randomly picked from a pool on round start?

By default, the config suggests the...

Always seen hanging around Manuel. Responds to ahelps quickly and professionally. May occasionally take part in events or help facilitate them. Good panda.

Manuel round.

Prevented Sec just doing their usual pseudo-"re-education, cba RPing sec" murderbone of non-antag clown on Manuel just now.

Very good admeme. Down to Earth and an overall cool cat.

What would the lawyer interaction be within this sphere? Ordinarily a lawyer can at least see brigged prisoners and interact/communicate with them in that way.

In all the forum threads i've seen so far space law seems to be mostly cited to justify executing valids (since antags, regardless of their actions during the round, fall under "enemy of the corporation"). If it was rewritten, the best solution is probably going to be fuzzy suggestions, o...
