/tg/Station 13

Helios

Not the way I see things.
Ever since the arm change was made to hulk, people stopped wanting HULK syringes, and I had a lot harder time giving them away as a geneticist.

Helios

Sleeping people dodging shots like people in crit would be great.

Helios

The drama is the nail that sticks out gets hammered down. For the sake of balancing a lot of jobs have lost their fun.

Helios

this is because the coders hate murderbone for some reason Possibly because large-scale murderbone kills server pop, which makes any other game design pointless. Perhaps we could offer a check on murderbone. Like some kind of machine that could revive people without the work of doctors as the bodie...

Helios

So offer a solution. How does the Petitioner become more than a loot pinata, and an effective way for curing what ails the station?

Helios

I wanted your opinion on the petitioner Crag, but you are too busy talking about poop mechanics. Forget I asked.

Helios

I pass out whenever I donate blood

Helios

sounds more like an admin event Sure, but if we look at this thread for precedent https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=32010 If it requires admins to be online, that's a no-go. More than half of my time on Sybil, there are no admins on. It would be an admin event that could be run...

Helios

Everyone knows Petitions are meaningless. :pen: :paper: :paperwrote: Signing them does nothing. But in SS13, it doesn't have to be that way. Through writing, players would be able to write a petition, and players can sign that piece of paper. When over half of the living crew has signed that piece o...

Helios

Hey Crag, I need your help on the next idea, the Petitioner.
Also sea shells are more a currency in my opinion

Was it the taste or the texture?

Helios

What would you do if you played?

Helios

So I keep hearing

Helios

The nail that sticks out gets hammered down
Tasers, cloning, Original X-ray, space adapt and Hulk,various chems and viruses stood out.
They don't stand out anymore. Now if you break 2 reinforced walls as a hulk you've got no arms

Helios

This could also be turned into a game mode, where authors are capitalists and communists. If you read a book being pushed at the library, expecting to learn a perk, but instead get "You gain Capitalist/Communist Sympathies". The first 3 people after gaining sympathies who achieve a perk be...

Helios

I agree. But think it should be the admin/mod deciding what form this god figure comes out as (I want one of them to be the old max size singularity). And have all the words spoken by this divine figure to be heard by all mobs. So if you can hear "The event horizon of the singularity say" ...

Helios

This would be a good idea. But with a few tweaks. Firstly, instead of the AI deciding what gang it wants to join, there are now an AI associated with each gang, who has a gang lawset. There is no "real" AI. There is 2-3 (population scaled) gang AIs. This has the side effect of not being hi...

Helios

This would be cool. Instead of Icebox, medieval box. And instead of ice dragons in mining, you have regular ones.

Helios

Replica Pods have been around for a long time, but with cloning removed they've never gotten much of a spotlight. Fear of the coders removing it to I suspect. It does have a lot of room in terms of gameplay space, what I'm proposing would be a spin on Revolution. Invasion of the body snatchers: At f...

Helios

Can intellicarded AIs in Mechs use equipment yet? That bug was around for years it seems

Helios

There's a few edgecases for being under 18. I think your character can't buy cigarettes or alcohol from vending machines, unless you hack them.

Helios

Add a PAI-Posibrain transfer. Right now I have to tell the PAI to do a "wireless transfer", and ghost and then enter the posibrain. Being able to click with a PAI who has maintenance access unlocked on a posibrain, and have the player transfer from one device to the other would be nice as ...

I've been playing some Tale of Two Wastelands recently, and I've got some appreciation for the humble Eyebot https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/3/3e/Fo3_Enclave_eyebot.png/ It acts as a mini avatar of the enclave, repeating their doctrine and being friendly to the player unless the lin...

Helios

Depth and Breadth can be used as synonyms. Those can be described as the amount of choices in the game, and the amount of viable choices to the players So security/antag conflict can be very meta dependent, with many options to hit stuff, but very few viable choices. Jobs like Botany, Chemistry, coo...

Helios

If you're clearly only playing the game to play antagonist, you aren't enjoying the game for what it is. Antag bans for antag rollers are a good way to "suggest" they learn or experience a new aspect of the game than only playing antagonist. If they don't even connect a single day while a...

Helios

E-Peen
If I have been playing the game for 15 years, I probably have more than 2000 hours

Helios

https://i.imgur.com/hahT6H3.png The game can be fun past the 2000 hour barrier, and it doesn't just require antag rolling or becoming an admin/coder/non-player Roleplay. A lot of the time nobody puts captain priority high, and you can get it consistently. Change your name to something unique and ro...

Helios

Whatever the jester does end up becoming, I hope it has environmental changing effects. As an example, after the jester kills somebody, their body starts to spread checkerboard patterns. Standing on the white tiles causes you to heal 2 damage, and while stepping on a black tile your character receiv...

Playing Sunless Seas recently, the Seven Canto Ambition was a pretty great. It makes me question if /tg/station books could have an in game effect. Here's what I am suggesting. After getting a certain accomplishment, the next book a player writes and autographs will cause other players who read it t...

Helios

There's always been this element with making bombs. players find better ways to deal with the limitations they are given, and are hammered down by coders to make their jobs even harder, which will be optimized out by the skilled players, and put a larger barrier to entry for new players pursuing the...

Helios

Here's how I would suggest coding it. Basically the shuttle call will not be interrupted, instead an announcement will play saying that Centcomm wasn't too happy with the shuttle call justification, the station is now classified as "high-risk", and all future shuttle calls are manually app...

Helios

Clownmart pawn shop is great. Do it 3 rounds in a row once a week. As an antag, try holding someone hostage. It's difficult to do. I did it once as a cargo tech by getting emag for contraband crates and a sleepy pen, and a big old bomb. I held them hostage on mining station and blew us both up when ...

Helios

agreed. Its an incentive to murderbone But if you add it to a system that activates when an EOC is in perma.... It's a lot easier to kill a monkey or cat than another player. This would be a universal drop of any entity, a majority of which are non-player characters. This but replace scrolls with t...

Helios

Here is an idea for a toggleable feature. Scroll Fragments. Any entity when killed, be it a mouse in a hallway, a player, a lavaland entity or Ian, has a small % chance of dropping a scroll Fragment. There would 3 kinds of Scroll Fragments. Spell Fragments, Heretic Fragments, and Genetic Fragments. ...

Helios

This reminds me, a good random event to add to the Wizard's magical randoms would be putting wormholes over all the disposal pipes for the rest of the shift. Call it the Warp Zone Protocol or something.

Helios

Adding "in case of emergency break glass" cabinets to Ice box lower levels would be good.
Instead of fire axes, you could have PKAs in the second and third level of Ice Box. And on the bottom level, having a patrolling mine bot in case the wildlife breaks into the station would be good.

Helios

If Wizard could infect people with Wizarditis that would be cool.
Just add a bottle of it to the wizard vending machine on the wizard shuttle.

Helios

Oh it would be above the power curve. But pay attention to the context. If you're already in Engineering, and have a emag, you can break into where you want. Next to you is insulated gloves, screw drivers, wirecutters, crowbars, multi-tools. You already have the power to go wherever you want. This j...

Helios

"You can also slot in a custom energy weapon to be fired, instead of default emitter beams. Simply open the panel and insert the gun. "
Neat. Didn't know this about Emitters. Perhaps a mobile emitter, that can only fire when over a powered wire could be an engineering unlock.

Helios

Being able to emag a console in the gateway, to turn it to a syndicate back door to the station could be another way to spawn antagonists as a result of in game mechanics. Emagged Booze-O-Mat dispensing a Molotov Cocktail would be neat. Emagged Kitchen Vendor dispensing a rolling pin, that when clic...

It won't be you, though? Just a mockery. You died, copying you won't bring you back bro.

My ghost, my soul is the same.

Beyond the Sea

Helios

Wizard would be good.
While I would be tempted to have everyone spawn a gun or two, spending all my points on getting people wizards tomes would have the most global impact

Helios

Grabbing used to be very useful in combat through Tabling.
That was nerfed for a reason I presume.
Also, you can hold someone hostage I think, press a gun to their head while they're grabbed with the other hand. That's marginally useful

Helios

Just gonna repost my idea from another thread. Abductors exist,they abduct humans, steal their organs, put weird parts in their bodies and set them on their way. Abductors should keep existing, but with a twist. Centcomm Alien Autopsies. Basically, this would be an optional mission. Centcomm would a...

Helios

Only with old cloning. The kind where you can save your genetic information. Preferably with upgraded parts that auto clone me once I kick the bucket

Helios

I think allowing ghosts to experiment with rare roles is a good thing.
My first suggestion would be bring back gateway missions, have a Blob mission, and that old Wizard mission where the Wizard Servants couldn't go back to the station through the Gateway.

Helios

Is Wizarditis still in the game? That was a fun one.

Helios

I had a few ideas for upgrades to Robots :medbot: Firstly, would be the ability to open the maintenance hatch, and add the Cyborg self repair module to a Medbot, giving it the function of repairing bots. :clean: After researching Sanitation technology, adding a firmware update to cleanbots would be ...

Helios

Monkey station/primitive station would be neat as well. Especially if it wasn't a space station, but built into lavaland
