Power Suits

Currently in the works are a few different suits that may or may not be able to be researched in the future (I doubt it.) What essentially they will do is grant varying powers from summoning Killer Plants, launching a barrage of dodge balls that knockout, to playing music very loudly to deaf an those around you and one suit that makes you near unkillable, but disallows use of your hand, your ability to speak or interact with those around you in a meaningful way.

I intend to partially base the code on ninja code and in doing so, to better understand it and to eventually improve the code to make it not so snowflake and hacky.

Feel free to submit ideas for suits, the limit is the codebase.

Suit with gravcatapult, but instead of only throwing shit around you can pull people in and FINISH THEM.

May I suggest a less ambitious first project? I especially don't think anyone should cut their teeth on something as notoriously bad as ninja code...

exosuits =/= mechs?
Are they like space suits then? I always thought Exosuits= mechs since the Ripley is based on the ripley exosuit.

Who mentioned mechs or exosuits.
And I think they are like spacesuits, but space replaced with power, you know.

I... dont know how to feel about this...
is it a good tier or a bad tier?


That said, while I like the idea of powersuits, I currently dont like the ideas suggested thus far, besides the plant one.

the bio suit

when powered it turns tiles you walk on into grass and every few ticks spawns farm animals behind you

cons: makes you look like a giant fucking faggot, covered in flowers and shit, putting this suit on makes you valid as well because fucking your getting grass and chickens everywhere, asshole

Except they would die from radiation and lack of insulation

Yeah, because realism and ss13 go hand-in-hand.

Progress is slightly slower than expected. There's a debate whether to use procs or procholders. Whatever that means.

Essentially down the road, there will be multiple suits but rather than have redundant code for each suit, each suit will simply call the proc of the suit proc holder which activates the actual proc depending on the suit you wear.

Needless to say, I'm going for an initial release of one suit and the code can be changed later for multiple suitsm
