Drone Shell Dispenser

Post by Hathkar » #349457

So, drones are a good way observers or ghosts can join in the round and play. Unfortunately, the dispensers themselves are usually behind doors not all crew have access to (Sci in box, display room in meta, maint in delta).

The dispensers in meta and delta also have the problem of not having a stack of glass/metal nearby, so even if someone did see the dispenser and want to make some drones, they might not have the materials handy.

My proposal is to either move the drone shell dispensers into more easily accessible public locations, or have them start off with enough materials already inside to make a shell or two.

The one in delta actually has metal and glass nearby, it just doesnt come pre-loaded.

I agree with you about metastation however, only heads can get to the drone dispenser without hacking the door open and that is kinda frustrating when you want to fill the dispenser.

If you're having trouble with shit drones, just drone ban them. Easy as that.
