Reverse-pickpocketing an inactive grenade into someone's pocket should prime it for activation. (Walk up to someone, plant a minibomb in their pocket, then run.)

you can already do this if you're quick

By the time you've finished planting it into their pocket usually, it'll explode. It's not good to have grenades explode in your face.

Use remote signallers

dead chickens (and other small mob corpses) should be loadable into the pneumatic cannon.

That article lead me to chicken-powered nukes.

Man, Brits are weird.

Hmm, mouse corpses are items so should already be canon loadable.

prime AFTER you start planting it

~Chicken nuke, you kill so good~

~Nothing beats that burnt town smell~

Also grenade pickpocketing is a good idea.

can we give the AI the option for loud telecomms like the command headsets?

NO

It can already do terminal announcements, so not needed.

I knew someone would say this, so I had a counter point prepared.

Heads have to go to their office to make the announcement, the AI just does it with a command or at worst blinks to a console.

Heads can use the request consoles to make department announcements, AI can only do announcements from the comms console.

loud headsets are unnecessary and dum.

Big speaky letters are stupid and dumb.

No need to go around calling someone a retard Malk

A radical idea - remove used slime cores. They serve no purpose other than obstructing the previous monkey cubes/potions and taking space.

InsaneHyena wrote:A radical idea - remove used slime cores. They serve no purpose other than obstructing the previous monkey cubes/potions and taking space.

The only purpose they really serve is to leave evidence behind when some dingus pops 10,000 gold slimes. I think having used slime cores only exist for harmful slimes (such as oil and gold) but not exist for others is a great way to prevent clutter.

Add a "Deputy" job to the job console.

Really basic sec access (like the detective/lawyer) with its own job icon (sec officer but in civilian grey?), so HoSes can allow HoPs to give them some civilian muscle whilst still keeping it easy to tell at a glance that this person isn't to be trusted fully.

Brig, Holding Cells and Maintenance, maybe.
(Also, departmental assistants when?)

I would say no brig timers by default, like the detective.
No access to equipment lockers either.

Allow the coin press to also make Medals.
As a captain I would love to honor a crew person for a deed well done with a diamond medal or honor the clown for actually being funny with a Bananium medal.

Everybody would just stamp their own then. You got a box of medals already.

Maybe use one of them as a die or a mold

Make lizardpeople turn into spacelizard critters instead of monkeys when you turn on the monkey gene
Unless this is already in the game, I've never been monkey'd as a lizard.

i think this actually exists on other servers where they have a monkey variant for each mutantrace

It exists on Bay for their lizards, spesskhajiit, weird squid things and whatever else they have.

Walking underneath a shower or being sprayed with a fire extinguisher should wash the dye off anything you're wearing (such as dyed jumpsuits or gloves).

Let traitors order a surplus tactical clothing bundle that includes typical AWPerative clothing, sans military belt (including de-activated NVGs, no night vision, and a damaged syndie headset so it no longer protects from flashbangs or has a key) for a few TCs.

Why the fuck would I wanna order broken clothing?

DemonFiren wrote:Why the fuck would I wanna order broken clothing?

Why would you want to order a balloon? It's for the bantz fam. Put it on and flaunt it in front of security. Be a tease, let them get their batons nice and charged.

Add towels that you can soak in water and wrap around your head to disrupt tracking implants.

better yet, boobytrapped versions of syndie items that backfire on the user in some way, like a gas mask that locks around the wearer's head and suffocates them. Would kill the "lol random search what's this gas mask in your bag better just test if it's a voicechanger" meta.
Edit: possibly make them harmless-but-useless for the person that spawned them via the uplink, so searches don't just turn into "make this person wear all their shit to see if they die".

edit edit: also fake night-vision-mesons that instantly blind the wearer, hue

Arnie is disappointed with your reference-spotting abilities.

A sharpening block, applicable to any item but only usable once. Raises the item's force/throwforce by 5, gives it the SHARP flag, and appends the word "sharpened" to its title.

Give it to traitors or the chef or something for a good time.

"You examine the 'sharpened banana'"

"You examine the 'sharped book of space law'"

You examine the sharpened e-sword

You examine the sharpened bike horn

You examine the sharpened SORD... Oh wait not it's not.

The only legitimate use is to get the manlet mutation, vend a bowler hat and sharpen it, and become fucking Oddjob.

Oddjob is normal height (bang on american male average, at least, at 5.10), he's just really broad.

nope. In the old 007 games you had to Aim down to hit him, if you played on n64 it was a pain to aim at him, thus making him OP

I remember playing Golden Eye with one of my neighbor kids.

He always picked Oddjob, the little shit.

Not surprising he turned into a drug addled rapist.

Diag Eye-Implants for Robros.

Maybe Bluespace MagBoots that let you literally space walk?

I would not be allowed to add bluespace magboots, but Diagnostic implants were something I considered, but passed on them as I assumed that no one would ever bother with them. I rarely even see the Robos take the two HUDs from their lockers ;_;

Surgery tools should make their attack sounds at the end of their surgery step! Things without attack sounds like hemostats might make squishy noises!

this is really really easy to do, surgery code isn't that hard
