pAI SHELLS! HAVE YOUR ADORABLE LITTLE FRIEND WALK AROUND!

Post by Fuzzeldorf » #10582

Idea: Have an R&D item that is a tiny body for the pAI, would have the same equipment slots as a monkey and it can walk around
Or just give them the ability to be put into borgs and mechs

Ehhh. Seems like another way for people to get back into the round after they've been removed.
I wouldn't like this added.

Wasn't the bandwagon that getting players back into the round was of the utmost importance half a year ago?

Well that's a wagon I wouldn't job on.
Maybe it's just me, but I love the survival aspect of this game. I also like dying having the consequence of maybe not being brought back into the round.
It means things have weight. Actions can lead to the removal of the round, and that sort of thing.
This just makes death feel worthless.
"Oh, you died? Just come back as x!"
No thank you.

On one hand, people being forced out of the game without a way back in is bad design. Not fun.
On the other hand, if you gitgud you won't die more often than not, and SS13 is, by nature, harsh.

I'm against this, mostly because the idea behind pAIs is to not be able to meaningfully impact the round through your actions, and a robust player can do a fuckload, even limited to monkey business. I'd suggest taking a look at Bay's positronic brains, which are a fusion of golems and MMIs; Take ghost, stand on posibrain, Posibrain beeps and whirrs and pings, player clicks posibrain, you MMI now.

I'd also suggest taking a look at baycode's Mobile MMIs; MMI spiders with a limited toolkit, lawed to mind their own business and keep the station running. Scurrybots that patch holes in maint or unbolt the escape airlocks.

I hope you're saying that you're against the 'pAI shell' thing and not the MOMMIs for those reasons since you literally described what they're planned to do.

Yes, I'm against the pAI shell because MoMMIs do the same thing better.

E: What miggles said. Gitgud.

pAI is an RP role. If you don't want to RP, either don't die or beg the admins to make you a corgi or something. Or just accept the fact that you died.

FIFY.

But yah, this sounds like MoMMIs.
I am located here, lurking in your posts, leaving piles of transparent wordings and being confused. Oh, I also try to map...

This, this is an example of what I leave for you.
Also, these days I mostly play Ursit McStation, mostly because I like roleplay.

Words are better weapons than tiny legs anyway. pAIs have a lot of sway when manned by someone logical.
