Derelict station discrepancy

Post by Togopal » #280332

Derelict station's supposed high security research area with the broken turrets and boards starts with every research board EXCEPT for the destructive analyzer, I assume that's not intentional as it's impossible to make a destructive analyzer by normal means. Can somebody please add one?

I'm guessing it is to prevent drones from doing rnd there

Oh I see, is that just to prevent drones from doing RnD on their own like Armhulenn suggested?

No, I'm saying they're networked as in, you have to sync and set up networks, I'm assuming Armhulen's worry is that drone research would accidentally contaminate station research, but in actuality, iirc, they would be kept separate.

They *MIGHT* be linkable over such distances with a multitool, but we can just disable that for the drone DA.

I know they'd be separate, I just don't want rnd drones.

I dunno why you wouldn't want RnD drones now that the direlect location is random now and nobody ever visits it. It'd be a good learning experience for ghost roles, and drones have drone laws anyway.

Doesn't golem research already contaminate station's research?

[20:26:02]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Welp. It was just a prank bro isn't a very good excuse when it comes to unprovoked nonantag murder, but since this is your first time doing it and you seem to understand the problem instead of a bannu I'm just going to leave you with a warning. Please PLEASE don't do this again in the future, as funny as crackhead broken bottle memes can be. Alrighty? Do you have any input on this?
[20:26:39]ADMIN: PM: [censored]->[censored admin]: Alright, no problem. I have some input. Fuck my boy pussy.
[20:27:06]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Okay then. Have fun.
[20:31:29]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Excuse me?

It does but you can also easily teleport to the golem ship anyway, to aid them or set up a two-way network.
