Table Flippan

Post by WeeYakk » #10649

So you see those tables all over the station right?
You get behind one and you can flip it front of you. People can walk past it when it's flipped. While flipped it blocks a percentage of shots coming toward you but allows you to shoot over unhindered if you're behind it.

You can only flip tables that are 1x< or = 5 and it doesn't work on reinforced tables.

Problem is people are going to be flipping tables everyone to get places, like pillaging the bar and shit. Admittedly most tables that would provide access to places are reinforced, but still.

If there's any places w/o reinforced tables let me know and I can replace them

Is there a way to detect the direction of the tableflip, to make it so that people cannot enter the square from the direction it's barricading? Something similar to windows?

You can't flip connected tables

I think he means flipping a table for impromptu cover

Not so you can just walk past it
Either way

I endorse this

Cover system 2014

What if I make a square of tables around myself? I am become table tank. Impenetrable fortress.

What if wrenching it immediately removed it when flipped ala chairs?

How will you get close enough to wrench my table fortress?

Also I'm pretty sure you can melee over flipped tables on bay.

Just a thing about baytables, you can flip connected ones, but only if they are al in a line and you are next to all of them.

From the tile they are in you can shoot over, I bileve you can melee over them, and they flip in the direction you face.
Oh, and I think you must be facing one to flip it.
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.
