I was thinking that aside from command module, there actually isn't a whole lot of access restrictions- like, maybe 1 room per module plus sone dept-locked lockers and crates. Keeps the compound functional when there's only a few souls on lavaland. Explorer suits and PKAs are still VERY much restric...

Anti Megafauna defenses. Some way to drive them away without hurting them. This is supposed to be a base, not an allied combatant when fighting megafauna. Maybe a heavy teleporter turret that only targets megafauna, and flings them randomly around the map, with a minimum distance to ensure it doesn...

Wait does anything happen when you heat blood from a ling? Oh man, applying that aspect of The Thing's premise to Lings would be nuts. Imagine severed ling limbs reanimating to flee extreme cold or heat. Severed ling heads beg incoherently for help/mercy. Both will attempt to slowly absorb nearby f...

When I was new (so a couple months back) and found my first Strange Objects, I wondered if this was what non-traitors saw while looking at syndicate gear. Since then I've continued to feel like that might be a good idea for some tech like camera bugs- if my character isn't supposed to know what he's...

I think I've got enough on my plate without trying to personally push an R&D rework through as well. Do you have any thoughts on a better way for the Xeno Research Level to work, or an alternative? The one thing that would literally rely on R&D being the way it is was the bit about syncing w...

Why are skeletons making bonfires? Could be interesting if they were inherently vulnerable to lavaland's heat & had some ability which protected them from exposure for like 30 seconds but only recharged in cold. Then combine that with harvesting resources to make some kind of Freeze Beacon (plac...

I recently had a round where a not-especially robust changeling was after me, except that they took full advantage of the disguise option. Every time they came after me, it was as someone else. Holy SHIT was that an eye opener, completely made me appreciate how changelings are more than just traitor...

on topic edit though, i just realized i completely forgot to mention the guns have operating parts and bolts that are calibrated to work in low to no pressure environments, firing them in a pressurized environment will destroy the gun (and possibly you in the process) Huh.

(copying my john oxford responses over from the sprite thread, since a mod objected. Also had some new comments, put those at the end.) How would you feel about giving cargo a machine to produce some miner-specific weaponry, instead of ordering it? (gunsmithing yes) (or already existing weaponry lik...

I shoulda replied to it in Ideas thread, honestly, I just did it here because it was more readable conversation wise. I'll copy the main bits of the tangent over to the new main thread.

Dagdammit

Hmmm. I mean, giving miners combination mining tools+weapons that are significantly more effective in low-pressure environments (plus boot knives) just seems like an all-around cooler design choice than giving them assault rifles. That said, putting a few customized assault rifles in the armory, two...

Dagdammit

Also, one key scenario compound is designed for: a robust ash walker tribe trying to invade the station. In my head this needs to be akin to breaking into perma, i.e. a tricky undertaking with multiple routes and methods to attempt. With that in mind, options include: -Frontal assault. Concentrate o...

Dagdammit

Seems needlessly and obnoxiously big. It'd be better as a ruin to rebuild rather than a round start building. Wait, sorry- does the map read as being one building? Because that would be WAY too big. Most of the compound is exposed, open space that is dangerous to cross during ash storms. I was worr...

You forgot to include the stuff about the xeno dildo fabricator, which is kind of important since that's the main addition this would add that isn't just a mapping change It's there now, under Science Module. Should I add it to General Info instead? Why not add some kind of periodic event kind of l...

Dagdammit

Big official thread is now up. Hey, what would you feel about re-locating the experimentor onto the now much larger 'compound'? Given that it already has a set of RNG based effects it would be significantly more dangerous for triggering lavaland localised world events (a pop-up storm etc) and malfun...

No matter the policy, if you don't want everyone to automatically ASSUME they're evil mind-control parasites whose hosts should walk out the first available airlock? Then calling them "Borers" is probably a really bad idea.

It's gonna be a new Mining Outpost, and there'll be a big thread officially laying out the proposal in Ideas sometime soon. Want to have the design doc reasonably finished first.

Did this ever get done?

Okay guys help I'm kinda stumped. http://i.imgur.com/6rjmEDJ.png See the two floor tiles to the left of the entrance? Those are special generator mounts, it's a core part of the compound's mechanics.

Could you please post the dmis for the cloaks? Going to try adding them/letting them toggle the hood while still a neck slot item, so you can wear them over armour.

WJohnston, I've been using your stuff to do some recolors. Do you have all the department colors, i.e. those used on doors and signs? How about shades of red used in sec headsets, uniforms, etc.?

The exact shades of color definitely aren't final. I do like him being orange, though. May help that it's a jumpsuit rather than a hardsuit.
