My vision is Augmented

This is a very loose idea, and I really want to test the waters here with you guys first, before we make anything concrete out of it. If you can imagine this being a thing, and if you are against it, I want you to leave a quick reply below, so we can see if it's worth brainstorming further. What I'...

Great idea shadowflame!

Helios

We do have a new way in which to balance weapons in the form of wounds. Raw damage isn't necessary if you can use a weapon to cause a wound and hobble an opponent. Not every fight is necessarily to the death (even if people will push for it), and sometimes you're simply wounding someone to humble t...

Further follow up. This in reality is not all too dissimilar from what is currently being done with white ships and other vessels being able to dock with the station. They are full of loot and dock. To distinguish this, I would say that treasure rooms are supposed to be a permanent additon to the st...

Helios

Great. I'll grab my chair.

Helios

So we all know you can buckle your self to an office chair, and fly around with a fire extinguisher

What we need is lances, so that space men can fly at each other with high speeds on office chairs, and Joust.

Cult eyes and Halos force cultists to engage. I can appreciate that Oranges, that's presumably why the change was made. Too many cultists would hide in maint, try to build up strength, but out of timidness fail to do so, and fail to make a splash. They are involuntarily forced to turn loud at some p...

The bounty system is good. It is dynamic, and provides incentives to get certain items to cargo. That dynamism can also be a downside, as there's no consistent way to work with the system. Trading in bottles of alcohol would change that up. There would be an open return on bottles of alcohol, going ...

Helios

Dynamism. The limits of the game are your imagination. The game is contested roleplaying, with the most robust player shaping the narrative. You can tell a lot of different stories, and over the last 15 years I've seen it all. Atmosia and early nations rounds. Clownshops (pawnshops), with nukies att...

the was be portals for the crew to go to the base and stop them from summoning, or the crew dies and they summon, almost exactly like what you said, but with a different way to get there, and also, what about non default shuttles? like meteor shuttle? or if the shuttles already destroyed and no one...

Helios

I think the real issue is how stun-based combat used to/currently works and cyborgs being immune to the usual arsenal. Say we re-add secborgs exactly as we left them with no changes, so they'll have a stun baton and disabler. Any criminal that doesn't have a flash is essentially screwed by the exis...

clock cult had the shuttle crash into the clock cult base for an end of round fight?
I guess I never played that version

Helios

Here's another suggestion, a cult bear-trap. Item which can be made from cult foundries, and can be used on the lavaland. Basically when a lavaland mob walks over it, the bear trap latches down, slowly killing the creep. Once the creep is dead, the cultist can walk over the corpse, lay down a new ru...

If you are running low on medical supplies in medbay, get chemistry to do their job, get roboticists to make more medbots, or order more medpacks from cargo.

So it would be better to bring back the combat meta of 2007?
Knocking people down with toolboxes, and welding them into lockers?

https://staticdelivery.nexusmods.com/images/130/1191920-1310326626.jpg SS13 ranged combat could use another tool. What I am suggesting would be a recharger pistol.

I understand secborg was unpopular, and had to go.
Has anyone else handled the security borg in a way people enjoyed? Something that was both fun to fight as, and fight against.

Here's an idea for a Changeling Non-Murderbone Ability. Targeted hallucinations. Rather then having a bunch of random hallucinations, these are targeted to make the person stung attack, hate or not trust the target. So if the Ling wants Kobe Goodman dead, they sting an officer with this, next time t...

Death is so easy to fix it's absurd. Even mass organ death can be fixed. It just takes a bit of time. There is a difference between difficulty and time, and you are saying is that you want it to take less time to rejuvenate a body. That is also true of current medbay, since organ replacements becom...

So they can make za money

Every completed cargo bounty comes with 3 free gacha tokens, that have a higher chance of hitting the rare drop table

Helios

Capsule machines are fun. Them providing random items from a long list prevents the balance of any one item from causing a problem. What I am suggesting would feature mini items, who's gimmick would be they break after 5 uses. Each pull on the gacha would cost 100$, credits, whatever.It could be a l...

It has always been incredibly difficult to hold people hostage in this game I remember one round getting an emag and syndicate bomb as QM. I got contraband crates, sleepy penned a passing HoS, dragged him to mining, set a bomb with a manual timer and tried to make demands of the station I forgot to ...

His feedback to the coding is that tape is too rare, and to up its spawn rate, or provide alternative sources.

So your solution is censoring words, then censoring threads.
This is how Oranges makes the game better.

Helios

I'm of the opinion that "overcoming" the threat antagonists pose is generally a bad thing to occur for a round. It's why we have midround antagonists to ensure that the threat is never truly overcame. We have enough players who early call because "im bored" already - a threat br...

Helios

That's why there is a security checkpoint in Arrivals

Helios

Anyways. To follow up. Cults getting halos and eyes was a change added to stop cults from hiding in Maintenance, and not doing anything. Having a base for them to flee to after that point, so they can have a base where they aren't murdered on sight. I said the ability would have to be used 3 times f...

Helios

Mining as it is could get some incremental improvements. At first, I would suggest building auto turrets outside the main entrance. This means that if miners are having trouble with mobs, they can run home and have the turrets take care of the rest. These also could get emagged for shenanigans. The ...

I would like something done about the ai upload tug of war, can law boards be single use? Maybe not law boards, freeforms can require you to upload multiple laws to get a working custom lawset. Purge boards being a 1 time use would be an interesting change. Give it a different sprite, and say it's ...

Helios

I disagree. Being able to upload AIs as is has been around for a long long time, and offers a great meta as it is. If you can steal an AI upload board from secure storage, and pay the telecrystals, you can subvert the AI. If you can get into the upload and disable the turrets with all access/emag, y...

Crewmembers triumphing over an existential threat isn’t disappointing. Yeah, unless the cult somehow got to eyes or halos and then immediately got trashcanned, it's probably a hard-fought victory against the Stun Hands and cult gear. Maybe a couple people survive, and manage to delay the shuttle by...

Look at the win percentage on cult.
https://sb.atlantaned.space/info/winloss#cult
2/3rd of cult rounds have a disappointing end.
At least this way they will be a climactic final battle.

Helios

As it is, Cult can have a disappointing end game. They have runes, try to convert people. They can delay the shuttle a few times. They can build some bases in mining and other far off corners of the station. I think that this can extended and formalized. Have a cult base with a teleport rune set up ...

Thumbs up and down is most useful in tech support videos.
It's an easy way to distinguish the bullshit from the legit

No thoughts on the Detective's revolver?

Notes are real, when a changeling absorbs someone, they get all their notes, if they are a traitor they get their PDA code and objectives.

Very small blob. So small in fact that you can only see it with a microscope. This would be a great gimmick for a gateway mission. Gateway leads inside Captains body, there's a blob in a map representing the virus attacking his body, and he has to try and stay alive, while the crew teleports inside...

As far as I'm concerned, the Theater needs another regular patron, that's not just a Mime and Clown. Elvis impersonators could do weddings too, if the Chaplain is out of town. Obviously he would have a leather jacket, and switchblade comb, and his iconic shades. If there is HoP shenanigans where the...

Being able to get syndicate cigarettes is neat and all, but /tg/station can really turn it up to 11. Being able to make cigarettes out of pages from a Wizard tome, cultist tome, heretic tome. Each can be created by using said tome on a cigar or cigarette, or through ordering rolling papers from carg...

Uranium Floor Tiles, Golden Toilets, these things are required for R&D but serve no practical purpose. What I would suggest would put them to use, and add another dynamic system to the game. Every 10 minutes, a small shuttle drops off 5 robot tourists. Those tourists can have a preference for fu...
