Secure xeno pen needs acid proof gas injector and igniter

[Bombadil]

That way we can actually kill the xenos again why was that shit ever removed. Especially now that we can harvest their organs for useful purposes

Also make the injector be right front and center so if xeno tries to lay any fucking plasma walls on top of it we can laser it down so the the plasma and oxygen get released.

I dunno maybe there should be inherent risk to storing xenos and not just a built-in foolproof execution method that encourages people to just farm their organs.

It's kinda shitty to grab ghosts for popping in xenobio if they're just going to be in a cell for a few minutes before plasma fire consumes them all.

Well I could always fill the pen with plasma before they pop but then the xenobilogists go autistic wanting to release the xenos and will attack security if they even try to kill them

[Shadowlight213]

It's already impossible for xenos to escape containment without outside intervention. There's supposed to be a risk involved with them. If people just start farming them for organs with no risk, larvas will probably just suicide the moment they pop.

[Steelpoint]

Correct.

Right now its impossible for any Alien to escape, but escape is guaranteed since someone will eventually just let the Aliens loose.

[Erbbu]

Whenever you're a scientist and a miner brings in a live facehugger it's just awkward. You want the xenos to be free because it leads to loads of FUN but you can't really let them escape as a protag. Often some guy will just pretend that he accidentally let them go.

[Gun Hog]

I once was RD with my own Xeno farm (this is AFTER the organs update), and wanting to try out the update, I made an X-ray gun and lasered their queen to death, then retrieved the corpse. I then had the hive node implanted into my head. All the Xenos were angry and bullied me. While they DID escape and continued to bully me, I genuinely felt bad for killing a completely helpless player who was hoping for a chance to be let out.

Harvesting xenos for their powers is fun, but it is downright awful to cage actual players for the sole purpose of making them grow up and die like some farm animal. I would be extremely salty if it were done to me.

[Zilenan91]

I was the Queen there. That was probably the single worst experience I've ever had in this game. Fuck off OP.

[CPTANT]

Why not just throw a single tank bomb down the disposals?

[Incomptinence]

Have a hulk team ready. It is the better solution since with biosuit hoods they can just punch the xenos with impunity. Aliens are owed less than nothing.

[Steelpoint]

The only reason I don't send the entire Security team down to RnD to kill any Aliens as soon as I get a whiff of it is due to the combination of the RnD department likely revolting over the attempt and that if we've gotten to the point where we're breeding Aliens then the round has gone on too long.

Whoever added Alien Organs having a positive impact on Humans really should have realised that there's no drawback to just breeding Aliens and killing them for the organs. Hell just let them breed, lower the shields and unload with your lasers and other weapons.

post yfw OP is too unrobust to kill caged XENOS.

I wonder if there is a way to be able to have npc xenos the question is how would you set it and it then removes fun if the npcs escape somehow because the players that could have been them arent

Guess you've never had a queen who made a resin nest and uses it to fucking cheese the shit out of you.

Last time someone did that on a containment pen full of xenos they all escaped.

I've gotten a xeno in the pen by 15 minutes with a hugger from mining

Make incendiary nade.
Throw down disposals.
Watch every xeno in the pen die with zero hope of survival.

Even if they melt the outlet, the nade still goes in and kills them all, and there is nothing they can do about it.
Unless they wall off like half the pen,which they usually don't.

Incendiary Nade is what a napalm grenade?

You can also just make a single tank bomb with 100% room temperature plasma and burn them all?

Single tank bomb?

[CPTANT]

Single tank bomb

Also known as plasma tank assemblies. Less powerful than transfer valve bombs, but they still fit in backpacks. You'll have to discover suitable gas mixtures yourself.

You will need:

A plasma tank
An igniter
A timer OR proximity sensor OR remote signaller
A screwdriver
A welder

To build:

Fill the plasma tank with a gas mixture of your choice.
Use a screwdriver on the igniter.
Combine the igniter with the timer, proximity sensor or remote signaller.
Secure the assembly with the screwdriver.
Attach the assembly to the plasma tank.
Weld a hole in the tank.

Can't blame you for not knowing, for some reason nobody ever bothered to put the description onto the current wiki.

Xenos are antagonistic dead not owed anything really and since antags like setting them free we can harvest their organs then have traitors break them out for space PETA RP.

I mean i understand how people get pissed they get denied being an antag but I want sweet sweet Organs

[Zilenan91]

It's not that people get pissed that they die, it's that people literally become farm animals and can't fight back against Xrays through the walls. It's super shit.

[Incomptinence]

The same can be done to human slimes. It is xenobiology being spawned in there does not guarantee you a good time or a fair duel (LIKE ANYTHING IN THE CREW CAN FACE XENOS ON FAIR FOOTING INSTEAD OF IT BEING A ONE SIDED MASSACRE EITHER WAY). It is the farm and you ARE the animal.

[Zilenan91]

Except no, working with slimes to get extra output for your cores does not actually result in the death of said slime. Just feed him a few monkies, reproduce, badda boom you got three adult slimes in a very short timespan while the player slime is probably happy to just be able to eat.

For Xenos, you're locked in a cage, you get shot a whole bunch, then you're dead again, time well spent.

[Incomptinence]

I have had to kill a player slime in my cells before because they were eating other slimes and breeding infinitely making an endless stream of hungry slimes waiting to pounce on anyone else who walked into the room.

Changelings are also mistreated in xenobiology being kept for use as a potentially infinite food source dying repeatedly. It is not a nice place to be nonhuman you are owed nothing and you can't have a fair fight as a xeno anyway the balance is so swingy. Either they savagely kill you with a hard counter as seen here or the entire station gets consumed.

[lumipharon]

you're a ghost, that gets put into a xeno body by your own choice.
If you'd rather stay a ghost then a farm animal, you can just ghost again or toggle off xeno.

Or stay and hope that you can escape somehow, which is fairly likely all thigns considered.
