I am currently playing in the worst fucking round ever on manuel, some asshole is playing wiz and just running around with a locker staff. A weapon that puts people into welded lockers that take 2 minutes to get out of without help is so OP that it turns the round into one person just griefing every other player. A situation where one person gets to have fun at the expense of literally everyone else is not a situation that should be allowed to happen in a game like this.

congratulations, you have identified the problem of wizard as a whole

I didn't get hit with it I just unwelded a few people it seemed like everyone was having fun as they screamed endlessly about how much they hated it over Common

Hi there! Don't discuss ongoing rounds! Here, on the github, or on the discord! Don't discuss ongoing rounds anywhere! It's against the rules!

People like you really are the cancer of any game community. I came here to leave feedback, not talk shit.

Frankly, wizard should have more stuff like this instead of the death and destruction stuff.

This. Wizard is limited only by the creativity of what people want to pr for it or do for a gimmick (for the most part).

I've seen some crazy funny wizard powers / combos both here and on other servers.

But it'll almost always be griefy, it's just the nature of the role. Damn wizards summoning snakes in my pockets.

Wow, the locker staff is actually WORKING right now? That thing breaks very frequently.

I thought it had its own special green magilock sprites but in this round they were just generic lockers so maybe that is broken

absolutely agree

It does and should, it's just broken as fuck.

Tlaltecuhtli has been forum banned, the rest are reminded to stay on topic and not say inflammatory things.

People like you make me want to pull my hair out, just make an issue report on github so I can fix it

But yeah this is the absolute proper use of the lockerwand lol

I like the locker staff. It's funny when I'm the wizard, and as a crewmember, I prefer it over a violent magical death.

wiz needs more stupid stuff like this. Not less.

give the wizard a pokeball

something like goon's reagent golem would be pretty neat

This is true but anything that incapacitates or prevents movement for long periods of time (i.e. not fun, encourages alt+tabbing) should be avoided. In fact, the locker staff's lockers should have a lower breakout time than the current two minutes given that the wizard can shoot the fucking things endlessly but good luck getting that PR merged.

No, it's fucking hilarious.

add an antiknock spell that closes, bolts and depowers all doors within range and make the magic word D'ORST UKH

imagine being able to lock people in a room with you, summon bees, then jaunt out

wow, that sounds even more unfun to be hit by, since it leaves hell for the engineers.

Any GBJ is by definition unfun for the recipient and should be limited

I do report bugs when I remember to and am not distracted by playing the game but I wasn't sure if that was a bug or I was missing something because I'd only seen the sprites in the game once a long time ago and had otherwise seen them in the code and remembered them because of how tasteful and modern they were compared to a lot of our sprites new and old.

The issue there is the same one a year and so later. The only part that was fixed was the locker not placing people inside. The locker sealing was not fixed by the pr that made actioninja close the issue, so it has remained broken.

That said, it DOES work SOMETIMES. I'm not entirely sure what causes it to break but it is possible for it to properly seal. Which is why I wasn't certain at various points whether it was worth making an issue report later down the line the rare times I do see the locker staff. It kept breaking and unbreaking with no real reason and likely because of changes outside of the locker staff itself. It's seemingly just very volatile code.

I'm glad someone finally identified the core idea of the wizard gamemode. We can chalk this up as a feature and close the thread.
