Thanks.

As reminded in a recent round, are lightgeists in the gold slime friendly critter pool? And if not, why not?

Well I know that lust was changed to basically apathy for the devil gamemode because lust had ERP connotations to it. As for wrath, maybe people couldn't come up with an item that didn't involve murderboning? (Not that it stopped them with sloth)

Not at all. Pickpocketing is a completely invisible action if successful. And failed attempts only alert the victim that their pockets were being fumbled with, no information on the culprit is given.

Though anyone could still notice the item appearing on the floor as well as whoever swipes it.

lay out rods instead for your improvised shrapnel bombs, gibtonite is good for this also as a cheap explosive which won't go through the floor.

Yes. Shards and rods get blown away by explosions and impale people. This stacks indefinitely with the amount of shrapnel up to the point of instant death.

Go to the AI Commands tab (the area with the OOC, IC, Preferences are) and go to subspace transceiver, there'll be an option to flick the high-volume on and off, as well as enable and disable various departmental channels for yourself and change the default talk radio frequency, if you wanted to change it for whatever reason.

As a side note: cyborgs have a dual-mode radio system. By default, it's set to station-bounced but if they get an encryption key, then they have to switch it to subspace transmission.

Subspace transmission is basically headset mode while disabling it is bounced radio mode.

You'd need to do bluespace beakers to have a effective amount 300 full on each floor tile space approximately with absolutely no leaks and proper & maintained atmos air locks/circulation.

We really need more effective ways to do that given we can't expect, i suggest spraying the air out with a janitor nozzle esque thing or mixing oxygen smoke grenade.

Q: Does oxygen smoke have any effect for spreading air? or is it just the smoke itself that can be breathed in?

Build an air-tight area, you don't need blueprints to define an area any more I don't think, there should be a button in the bottom right that let's you define a newly-constructed area. Blueprints are needed to re-define an existing area though I think.

Pro:Tip: Dig up sand, make sandstone, make sandstone doors around a 1x1 tile, step in that 1x1 tile, close the doors, define an area

Upgrading the capacitor increases the mech's EMP resistance by 10% per capacitor level (rank 4 is the highest I think). The scanning module decreases the energy each step costs by 5 per module level, the base value seems to be 20 energy per step (but each mech also has a unique step_energy_drain...) so I think a triphasic scanning module means you don't use any energy for normal movement. (tested it for a durand, movement with a t4 scanning module costs no energy!)

What do each of the lines on a ProxSensor mean? Line 1 looks to be some sort of arming delay, Line 2 is an armed toggle, and line 3 is a Distance value? in tiles, including diagonal?

Two parts plasma for every one part of O2. Drain out your O2 tanks with the protable air pump before putting your cooled O2 into it. Don't drain the plasma tank before putting the hot gas in. Explosive power is dependant on mole count, not temperature.

Pretty sure proximity sensors will trigger multiple times but they may or may not have a cooldown, I don't know. How large is the area you want to affect? It might just be better to use an infrared beam if it's a doorway or something similar.

Get a t-ray scanner and follow the pipes from any random disposal bin to cargo (or just climb into a bin), then observe how the conveyor belt at cargo leads to a separate disposal pipe loop that leads to the crusher.

To send all the bins to the crusher, you essentially just have to bypass the conveyor belt. Either build pipes right over it or reroute the pipe just before the belts to some new pipes you make that go into the crusher pipes.

It's important to also put some form of barricade (walls or girders are good) around the conveyor belts that are between the exit of the pipes and the crusher so the victim can't just step off of the belt. Also, if a bomb happens pretty much anywhere and breaks pipes (or somebody intentionally sabotages them), your gimmick is ruined. Might also be a good plan to seal up the crusher room so people can't just walk in and see the carnage before breaking your trap.

Some maps have the outlet by the crusher a tile too far back and consequently the victim can survive by walking away from the crusher, although they'll be trapped. If this is the case just move the outlet a tile up.

Pro tip: Once you've set up your trap, build a chute in the main hallway (preferably at a corner) that leads to the disposal loop, get a bucket and splash water around it, and an ebow. I don't think you can afford noslips with this since you also need an emag to sabotage the crusher, but if you can afford them go for it. Anybody that walks by can just be thrown in the chute and dies instantly. Bonus points if you disable comms so people can't call for help.

another simple method is to just redirect disposals to somewhere hazardous before they reach cargo. Like the inside of the incinerator.
