Re: Something needs to be done about Kudzu
We tried nerfing the department but maybe we should instead nerf the process of getting kudzu

Make planting the vines take time where you have to stand still to do it
Lower the mutation rate. Deadly kudzu should require hacking it repeatedly in a back closet until you can mutate your special deadly variety. Ideally, kudzu would have a mutation rate inversely proportional to its size to facilitate this.
Beneficial kudzu is a joke. I've gotten kudzu with all the positive traits, transparency, and zero mutation chance and it was terrible because it made it impossible to click on anything under the kudzu.

Re: Something needs to be done about Kudzu
I made an army of xenobio creatures to fight the kudzu they all died. I only survived because I was a ling and fought threw the kudzu going into unconciousness many times getting on the shuttle and fighting off kudzu until i was the only survivor

Re: Something needs to be done about Kudzu
Buff kudzu a lot but make it only appear from the random event and trays that contain a kudzu plant. The real danger is people being able to plant down 500+ packs everywhere.

Re: Something needs to be done about Kudzu
Botany with mutagen (which is very common) has all the tools to speedrush kudzu as demonstrated through previous botany powergamers like daisy holmes.
A alternative is to add the kudzu creation to the plant's harvestable and keep it activatable via a plant-gene which can be removed from the plant to make it safe if you wanted to legitimately consume kudzu's harvestables rather than greif.
Whether its appropriate or not to mention this, i got a note and someone i think someone else got a ban while you were still a trialmin gouty over your alarm about spreading kudzu which you instantaneously removed pro-actively, even though i was far away on lavaland to which you argued that taking intervention action was justifiable because "Anybody on lavaland could have been hurt" after all the miners had already evacuated, so your bias against kudzu is very much evident by that event & this thread.
Just fairly citing this anecdote, Its very easy for podpeople to get their hands on kudzu because of the prerequisites, of infinite mutagen and using plants to grief lavaland in concept if admins don't care about kudzu. A side issue is that kudzu also travels over lava covering it effectively without nullifying it since its a floor or catching fire.
- Kudzu can be mutated from tray weeds, which often also jumps into other dangerous weeds - removing this function stops botanists getting it out of event
- The actual kudzu pod is only really a placeholder for its chemicals and contains a common chem (but uncommon plant chem) of charcoal, which erupts into lots and lots of seeds which are a problem when spacepeople start stealing 1 seed out of the pile. Why you are growing kudzu in the first place is a good question.

Re: Something needs to be done about Kudzu
Sorry about that then, i must have mis-remembered but yeah, super easy and some admins have different tolerance levels of kudzu entirely so a appropriate response on whether A. kudzu should be stopped from happening nonantag by admins or B. Nerf kudzu from happening so that admins dont have to respond to it.

Re: Something needs to be done about Kudzu
So, i grow kudzu... i grow a lot of kudzu. And i belive that screen from gouty is from one of the kudzus i grew.
So, currently counters to kudzu are:
Pete/Goats
Scythes
weedkiller grenades
Harm yelling
Not giving the botanist mutagen
Murdering the person growing kudzu
And what i think about them:
- Pete/Goats: He just fucking dies to any kudzu that deals damage. Reduce the damage he takes from kudzu or some shit.
- Scythes + weedkiller grenades: Great at kudzu control, for some reason nobody ever orders them... Maybe a little buff? More scythes/grenades per weed control crate. Put a few of them already at the station to control kudzu while cargo orders more? Also, box does not start with a weedkiller grenade at hydroponics.
- Harm yelling: Most effective, but people have a lot of trouble telling if the guy growing kudzu is valid or not.
- Not giving the botanist mutagen: Don't be a shitter.
- Murdering the person growing kudzu: Please don't do that when i'm growing beneficial kudzu.
---
Now, About beneficial kudzu. Usually when i'm growing beneficial kudzu it looks like this:
The production speed at 1 will make it easier to control it while you mutate it (potency 100). After getting the beneficial mutations i want i would change the potency to zero so it cannot mutate and will have only beneficial mutations. So, when trying to create beneficial kudzu you will use zero potency at the end, but you will have to pass a stage where kudzu is potentialy very dangerous.
While at the stage of mutating the kudzu you will plant it and let it grow to mutate, if something goes really bad you might die and kudzu will spread and kill a bunch of people. Usually those are: kudzu mutating to explosive, space lag, disconnect, and valid hunters. Kudzu mutating to explosive... i usually solve this with a weedkiller grenade or plant-b gone, box does not have a weedkiller grenade at roundstart. Space lag and disconnect, i just cry. And valid hunters i try to ask them to examine the kudzu, but most people can't tell the difference between good or bad kudzu. Just today once engineer decided to bolt open hydroponics while i was growing kudzu so that the crew could lynch me, one assistant went inside stole the kudzu and spread it. Other times i am murdered, they are not able to control it and the kudzu spreads.
Also on beneficial kudzu being stupid/not worth it. Guess we could also use a buff in those beneficial mutations? Altho a beneficial kudzu is not always without negative mutations. I really like to plant auto-exploding kudzu near to blob cores, hardened kudzu to deny acess to one area, etc.
---
RNG
Everything on the process of creating kudzu is under the gaze of the RNG godess. To get kudzu from a tray with weed level 6+, RNG. Getting the mutations you want, a lot of RNG. The other tweaks usually require chemicals that you won't have acess or simply praying to the RNG godess usually reaps better results, except for increasing the production speed with blood.
---
Sugestions:
Making kudzu traitor only? Please don't.
Traitor botanist having an item that increases his chance of getting kudzu while the chances to normal botanists are nerfed? Maybe. But i really don't like RNG solutions.
On other RNG solutions: Maybe once it gets a beneficial mutation the chance for other beneficial mutations are increased, while the chance for negative mutations decreased. Same for negative ones.
Making easier to tell beneficial kudzu apart from harmful kudzu? Yes, please. Maybe with he suggestion about if would be easier to tell with what purpose a botanist is mutating kudzu.
Buffing pete/scythes/weed control crate. Buffing positive mutations.
---
Now my favorite suggestion:
Remove RNG from this shitter.
Change the speed that kudzu spreads to be related to potency and make the mutations related to plant trains, this way you will have to use the plant DNA manipulator and other plants to get mutations on kudzu. Bluespace activity -> bluespace kudzu. Hypodermic prickles -> toxic kudzu. Bioluminescence -> light kudzu. Densified chemicals -> hardened kudzu... and so on. Or whatever you see fit.
This way it will be easier to tell if a botanist is growing harmful kudzu, and it will remove the RNG nature of most of the process.
So, currently counters to kudzu are:
Pete/Goats
Scythes

So for the kudzu in my screenshot I spawned about a dozen goats, all died almost instantly. I also spawned a red alert ERT team equipped with scythes and they could just about stop the advance of kudzu in just arrivals, this was with someone full time healing them with a medbeam gun.

Re: Something needs to be done about Kudzu
Also,
- Right now kudzu starts a killing machine and you have to work hard for it to be harmless, it could be the other way around. Make it start harmless.
- Either it's too easy to stop kudzu from spreading because the guy planted only one seed or completely impossible because he planted 100 seeds. On the little shop of horrors idea, make it deal some stamina damage/stun or whatever every time you plant it. That way spamming the seeds is harder.
- Or make the increase on kudzu growth more linear, right now it starts slowish but it jumps to scary fast quickly.
- Once the kudzu production speed was bugged and it had no cap, i've got it to 3000 by accident (remember that well cause ban hammer). Right now production speed increases max size and spread speed. How about reducing those attributes at the cap of 10 and having to do some shit to increase it... 100 unitos of plasmas, blood, brains, hearts, lizard tails, whole heads... whatever.
- Zero potency transparent+vine eating vine on weed control crates. Just plant that shit next to the bad kudzu.

get rid of the dumber strains of kudzu that make it impossible to stop.
notable bluespace and space proof variants, as it allows it to spread through walls and into space, where it can return to the station and assault it indefinitely.

Re: Something needs to be done about Kudzu
Kudzu itself should be something that is dangerous.
However I do think it is stupid that you can plant kudzu instantly, having to stand still for 3 seconds to plant it sound very reasonable.

Re: Something needs to be done about Kudzu
also if kudzu needs more nerfs after this, why not just make it weak to fire?
have it catch fire and that spread about 5 or so turfs each time.
could even be used as a buff by the kudzu planter, grow lots of it then use it as an accelerant for flames, !FUN!
plants burn yo.

The same logic applies to engineers who have a habit of putting kudzu inside the SM containment so that it constantly pulses the SM while it grows.
