The game looks really really nice now. Some excellent sprite work, the lighting engine is very cool now, just all around swell job, guys.

Also, the increased amount of ambient sounds makes things real immersive.

I cant find the library anymore. What happened to it?

confused rock · Fri Mar 15, 2019 5:20 pm

Library's still around, but it's in different places on each map (usually the leftish side of the station if the map isn't box)
Librarians however are harder to come by, since some genius thought "hmm, people hate playing the roleplaying role... I know, let's give it validhunt gear!" and now curators get two choices between "stab people" and "whip people" and a third choice of "fuck off to space and never come back to do your job"

be traitor clown and get the clown car

confused rock · Fri Mar 15, 2019 7:42 pm

Clown car is the worst addition to the entire game every clown buys the 20tc item completely limiting any clown creativity and the car itself is just the same thing every fucking time

Lumbermancer · Fri Mar 15, 2019 7:46 pm

correct, that's why I always buy it and start stealing people right away, until it gets removed

Collecting the whole crew and smashing the SM will never not be hilarious and we cannot take away this treasure.

The difficulty of actually doing it makes it rare enough. I have only seen it successfully happen once, and it was due to a borg breaking its laws.

It got 40 kills.

I was sorta mad at the time, in hindsight it was fucking hilarious.

I managed to let the clown car into the SM as a malf AI. Made doing my objectives really easy.

singularity engine was removed, it's a 1 tile crystal now that turns you into dust if you touch it
if the engineers are too retarded to set it up it'll explode and release tesla bolts or a singularity into the station
oh its also giving out radiation like candy for anybody who walks by

Super Aggro Crag wrote:Why did they changed it

Old engines were considered too simple and uninteresting, iirc

The SM was designed to allow for more experimentation and shit but afaik it just ended up in a lot more people fucking up the engine and having to memorize a new setup strategy

People decided that tasers were too easy. I think this was a stupid decision but there you go.

tasers were removed (and the egun stun setting and basically every ranged stun), chloral hydrate is hot garbage now

on the flip side it takes about 2 minutes of setup to start mass producing maxcaps, disablers (nu-tasers) take someone out for much longer than a taser (requiring 3-4+ hits though) and i just found out you can mass-produce a poison that at first does nothing but after metabolizing (about a minute) instakills you in the public gardens as any assistant

they should make disablers shoot yellow shots so i can still say it

i dont want to have to say "prepare your anus for my azure beam of justice"

terranaut · Post by **terranaut** » Sat Mar 16, 2019 8:05 pm #483752

just use lethals and say "i will paint the hallways in the same color as this laser and you will help me"

confused rock · Sat Mar 16, 2019 9:46 pm

try peeing on them, crag

Or use disablers while saying “thousands of people fall for half-naked catgirls. How many for our beams in blue?”

It's enjoyable to help out an antag and get some goodies or special treatment when they nuke the place down.
There was a basically immortal (I don't want everybody to copy it so I'm not gonna explain the details) wizard on Terry the other day; he could still be knocked out and rendered immobile but I ended up tossing him in Cryo, after trying to heal him with normal means and stealing a Defib / setting up Ghetto Surgery only to learn that we either didn't have the tech or you need an actual operating table to perform it.
The wizard promptly boarded the shuttle and got owned again but it was a fun round.

Super Aggro Crag · Thu Mar 21, 2019 12:24 am

i was nice to an antagonist who was being friendly after i permabrigged him and the HOS killed him so I tried to get the chaplain to give him a proper burial and after I gave my eulogy the chaplain killed and cremated me because he was also an antagonist.

Rest in piece, Lizard and also Me.

Why do teslagrilles even exist? They were added to stop assistants smashing grilles, but glass shards are one of the only items able to smash grilles without being shocked.

It was added because throwing shit at the grille was a way to bypass the damage youd take from smashing a grille with a shard with no gloves.

Also it leads to pretty fun situations like people making ghetto tesla coils.

it's retarded in the first place and it doesn't even work if you have enough space to just sidestep the shock

I wish I still had a photo of the paper-fed tesla somebody built in metastation's central hallway and killed like 30 people with.

Thu Mar 28, 2019 6:38 pm

Fun fact, tesla grilles were really controversial for a long time largely because their damage formula was wrong for months with nobody noticing. They would do 16,000 burn damage when they meant to do 40, enough to husk you multiple times over. https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/20412
