You're not wrong but I weep every time someone brings up the miners' private playground as a reason not to change something that could benefit the entire server

Antag rep is at the heart a very fair system of distributing antag. You play a lot, you get a lot of antag. The problem I have with it is that ss13 isnt a very fair game. Ignoring admin shenanigans, there are lots of ways you can get utterly fucked out of a round, antag or not, that you have zero c...

Mickyan

people in this thread just want to ban lizards from wearing clothes, nice try weirdos

Mickyan

I think antag rep is a great system and I firmly believe that the decision of disabling it was caused by headmins blindly listening to people who did not understand how the system works in the first place There were also some good ideas thrown around to change the config values to make it more fair ...

This is a lot of work just give me the juicy bits

Mickyan

this is the most fun I've ever had reading discord chat holy shit all the good drama is in the verification channel from people who got kicked coming back and raging because they don't have enough play time (90 minutes living) to verify. You can't just say this and hold out on us, show us the goods

Mickyan

A well organized QA team would also have a literal checklist of every single feature in the game that needs to be checked, and would be checked after every single major update regardless of what has been changed If that sounds horribly tedious and time consuming, welcome to quality assurance and tha...

sounds familiar

scaled sprites look like garbage since we're not using icons upscaled in gimp and you can't make pixels smaller

well I guess you can but it still looks awful

Mickyan

I'm not particularly against this but generally I dislike encouraging people to acquire equipment that's already very desirable (haking tools aka all access) But assistants or no assistants, I think the issue is that maint access is invaluable since it opens up the map in such a major way and gives ...

Mickyan

the absolute madman did it It's too early to really give any constructive feedback but one possible problem I could see emerging is if someone is hoarding money and doesn't spend it then the economy stalls because there's not enough currency moving around while prices keep rising, in some ways this ...

Mickyan

AGAIN IT'S A ME PROBLEM I don't think it's a you problem, I always found it very frustrating that most admins will demand such high standards from security but assistants can get away with greytiding in groups on a daily basis I would hazard a guess that's part of the reason why barely anyone wants...

Mickyan

Making friends and foes you recognize will enrich your experience far more than treating every round as a competition in a vacuum It does become a problem when it's repeatedly used to get an edge over others or overtakes the normal flow of the round, even with behaviors that aren't necessarily again...

Mickyan

I think this is relevant information to put into context that this isn't an isolated incident I have experienced Jack's inclination to rush straight to executions at the first opportunity during a round where I was one of three people executed, to the best of my knowledge without captain permission....

I can't believe bobbahbrown sold my scrubby search history to mark zuckerberg

I didn't like the idea of manuel specific bans at first but I think this is something that could be useful for admins that may otherwise get cold feet about banning someone from all servers over things like being awful at roleplaying but not enough that it's obvious they're taking the piss So long a...

Mickyan

All this bad blood over something which in the end is inconsequential, and it makes me a bit sad to see this happen to the manuel community

I think mistakes were made all around by all parties, promise to do better next time and move on

Mickyan

https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/38054 It is still unclear what this accomplished other than allowing people to delete entire rooms with frying oil grenades and spray bottles Which by the way still allows you to fry the nuke disk and destroy it, forcing a respawn before it can actually be...

Mickyan

you have to build shit in the middle of nowhere because every free space there used to be in maps has been taken up by the prefab shit and moved to the depths of maint where approximately 0 people will see or care about it None of the "prefab shit" is in desirable positions, not even box ...

Mickyan

[*]Remove things like the shop room, empty rooms/ones that can be cleaned out for use by people making their own projects are better A puzzling distinction considering the commissary is by design an empty room for people to make their own projects in Besides this comes up occasionally and I still s...

Mickyan

It would help in general if we had natural hair color presets at character creation and then used those for random characters

Mickyan

I think with the continued popularity of manuel this is something that would make a lot of people happy and records don't get a lot of use Simply a text field you can type in at character creation that will be added to medical/security records and can be used to write a short bio and some defining f...

Bring back Ian

Mickyan

I'm not really that interested in a sequel, the series peaked with Space Station 7 and it's only been going downhill from there

Mickyan

I don't even agree this is the players' or rules fault, these modes have underlying issues that are just made a lot worse in an environment where you're expected to not use every waking moment preparing for impending doom and all it takes is standing next to someone for more than a second to lose. A...

Mickyan

These modes typically play out depending on which side has more people willing to ignore all MRP specific rules and just play the mode to win, there's enough wiggle room to do it without getting banned but the two mix together like oil and water

Mickyan

I do not like box

Yes, fixing what I don't like about it makes box more similar to meta

No, meta is not the perfect pinnacle of map design

I am okay with keeping box if it's the first to go when more unique maps are available to take its place

Mickyan

1. Several parts of the code depend on view range being a square, it's going to cause both technical and balance issues in the current state 2. To make full use of widescreen you have to squish your chat further to the side - you can imagine why this is very annoying in a game where most visual feed...

Mickyan

In a few months I'll wonder how I ever managed to play without this - Added pref for disabling messages from anything that isn't a mob (like machines!) - Added pref for tweaking the max message length on client-side (defaults to 110, which is what is has been during all testing) Are these also set t...

Mickyan

To be clear in my example packages set for export have a visible bar code and cargo techs are expected to just load them on the shuttle, not open them

Mickyan

Assuming you're not going out of your way to bait people into hurting themselves or leaving your dangerous equipment all over the place Example: Cargo routinely steal wrapped packages destined to exports, am I going to get in trouble if I put a mousetrap grenade in one of them and a cargo tech blows...

I like Rave but they play joke/annoying music far too often and on manuel of all places

Mickyan

We already have basic functionality for meat production with animal husbandry which is already far less exploitable than synthmeat production, and once it actually gets some use there's more reason to expand the system into something more interesting Same concept should apply to other currently infi...

You can use pizzas as IV drip containers

Mickyan

After looking at that arcade floor I'd like to formally take back all the nice things I said about EOB's mapping

Mickyan

Not noticing that one of the dozen blobs of pixels on the shuttle is trying to kill you because there are no attack animations and personal attack text is not highlighted in chat

Mickyan

Unlike the warden, the quartermaster can embezzle gain enough money to buy his own cape

Mickyan

If I trust someone to make a good map that can break the mold is EOB, he obviously has the chops for it

Probably best to wait for the vote and then ask oranges though

Mickyan

Mickyan

I agree 100% with dezu. I've always loved SS13 as a roleplaying experience, and I was really excited when Manuel launched and spent a ton of time adminning and playing on there, as well as spending a bunch of time updating my (now mostly defunct) lore project to help foster it. Unfortunately, I fee...

This would be good on top of an early warning announcement so you can actually react and prepare for it

It's finally harvesting season

Mickyan

I want to see a validhunter kill someone because of their mood and try to explain it to an admin when they get it wrong but this situation still only exists in your head

Mickyan

People said this about the empath quirk almost one year ago and it still hasn't happened because it's still not that easy

Antag moodlets are dumb and they should go but that's for another day, also what kind of dumbass keeps their suit sensors on as antag

Mickyan

Tracking sanity through suit sensors would be a nice addition for this

Mickyan

The announcement seems to imply otherwise so I want to be sure since there's been disagreements about this on discord. Unless I'm misunderstanding the wording here: We will not carry code or content outside of the station unless it's burden is very small and minimal, that means lavaland ruins, space...
