The new shuttle chairs look like ass

I want to gauge how many people agree with this statement.
They look extremely out of place and they don't even look like a chair when you're looking at it's front.

We crossed a threshold of putting ugly sprites into game after heaters got changed for absolutely no reason.

They might look cool on syndie color scheme shuttles, also they're huge and you're completely hidden if you sit in the north-facing seats and you're not wearing a sombrero or something.

Really don't like them either, the sprite is too noisy, don't fit the cheap/retro look and they make people almost impossible to target or even see when buckled and facing up

They're too H.R. Giger-y for our plain shuttle, they just don't fit its style

I think FTL13 has good shuttle chair sprites.
I hate all shuttle chair sprites, though.

@Lumbermancer heaters weren't added for no reason; they were added to fit the 3/4 perspective of the game. though the actual design of them sucks ass ree they should be retro not fucking star trek heaters

3/4th is one of, if not the most autistic methods of displaying items in this game. It can't handle depth at all, and has mostly been an excuse to PR shittier sprites in just because "much 3/4ths."
Wjohn should be canned for this dumpster fire of a direction.

Consoles too. Medical consoles were blue, the color of med bay, now they are fucking green for some reason. It's the color of hydroponics. What's up with that? No one knows.
If they change sec uniforms and armor again I'm gonna crash this station, with no survivors.

Air Alarms are still the same old ones, it's the Analyzer they changed like 5 times.
I'm all in for old heaters, these new heaters look like fucking ionic breeze bullshit and its just weird.
Pretty okay with the vendors and toolboxes though
Oh yeah and the new new chairs are okay now

It was jarring at first but at the same time I can barely remember what the fuck the old ones looked like except for this ms paint shitpost I made last year when people were arguing about hinge number and placement.

I still believe that the whole 3/4 thing started as a joke that got out of hand. Some of the earlier replacement sprites were so bad it could only have been intentional. And some of the worst ones made it through without being changed.
It wouldn't be the first time that a coder made a joke PR but people didn't get it and the coder let it be processed, approved and merged just to see how far it would go.

Add poo sprites and call it pudding.
The players are always wrong on sprites so it will have to stick.

The air plane shuttle sprites are here to stay unless someone can come up with something that's better. i.e no reversion to normal chairs.

Tbh it was never super retro really.

Yeah, if you consider that a lot of the older "retrofuturistic" sprites were made in the late 2000s, it isn't so much "retro" as the exact brand of outdatedness you'd expect of a shitty office building, but in space.
That's the old spessman aesthetic; a modern-ish shitty corporate workplace flung into the distant future.

I mean don't get me wrong I enjoy the regular chairs more but it was better than the old new ones.

Pick up one of the new chairs in an empty hand, then use it in-hand to place it back down. Tada, no new chair!
Somebody should probably report this on git, in fact, but it's too funny to magically transform a chair so I haven't bothered.

It's not the sprite, armrests are only for comfy chairs, regular chairs don't have the code for them.

I'm aware, but the overlay still needs to be as a sprite. You'd need to seperate them or make some kind of masking manually and import it into the dmi. It's not automatic.

ok new complaint
the new shuttle chairs make it way too pixel-precise to buckle yourself in
