Bottom post of the previous page:

Depowered airlocks when crowbarred, do not fully open as they do now. Instead it only cracks open halfish, much like when zombies(?) pry them open. This would replace the long standing 'crowbar and it slides all the way open' with a two-step thing. Another crowbar action, hopefully with a minor timer effort so its not instant, and the airlock then actually all the way to the sides. Slight changes would be like as follows:

-The cracked-open airlock prevents running/walking to get through and instead a person has to click and drag much the same as a table (or perhaps having to 'walk' into it, which causes a slight stun given you are squeezing through a vertical slat).
-Cracked open airlocks let you see the tile directly on the opposite side (if possible) or should continue to block LOS barring a glass airlock.
-Cracked open airlocks will still shut after the depowered state like normal when power resets back, and is still similar other than the adjustment that safety-toggle or not, the half open airlock Will close, whether a person is in the gap still or not. The system was not designed for detecting crew in the doorway at such a state, and once the power kicks back in, it finishes closing to seal itself like it's meant to.

Additional ideas for airlocks, that might be shitty: Being crushed by an airlock should have a chance to delimb a person as it closes on their arm/leg/head/tongue.

I like it, though I don't think airlocks actually do enough damage to cause de-limbing even with their safeties off(though door-slamming does perma stun people caught under it). I think it's equitable to getting hit with a suspicious toolbox.

I just had a thought, when you attach angel wings to yourself via a miner it actually changes your core race because it fuses the wings to you.

What if via this application, posibrain or not you actually create a working android (or some kind of non-admin buffed android if its too strong with resists and punches) with the face shifting and concealing features, but also stringent laws. Upon pre-activation with a module (to which illegal modules can be installed for regular android punch strength and resistance) on a fully augged body it becomes a android type.

Theoretically if we're race changing and swapping, ashwalkers could be a genetically digressed lizard via genetic mutational blocks for more changes.

Malf AIs ought to be able to buy a cyborg for cycles. There's few things more annoying than starting a round as a traitor AI with the robot army objective and not having any cyborgs to start with or any being made in round.
I'd recommend 60 cycles for a cyborg (with supercap+self-repair+illegal equipment module pre-installed in case some meme lord bombs the robo console). The MMI should be a posibrain so if it gets deconned, it can't be put into a Human body as a roundabout way of coming back into a round.

Rapid wall manipulator (RWM) - a wall content exclusive RCD that allows you to bend the direction of wall for non-square corner/external pieces, for cartridges it also has a number of basic wall settings when applied to a girder. As a additional bonus it can suck metal off walls, though this process takes longer on reinforced walls, much the same way its more expensive to lay plasteel on girders for reinforced walls quickly without anything but cartridge material.

&

Blood slime - makes 0+ blood when injected with water, and gibs when injected with blood, however injecting it with plasma will make it burst out random body parts from random races. Some interesting products of this may yield xeno-limbs, golem/ashwalker parts and whatever parts generate, they will be not damaged, meaning that for toxicity racial rejection you could insert them into a human body or attach limbs on.

&

You can scan body parts with a medical scanner to identify what race it belongs to (specific if this PR https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/20869 gets any more elaboration since all lungs LOOK the same)

Make constructable laslock rifles like some low tech worlds in 40k have. Basically a one shot laser musket, should be as unwieldy to use as the improvised shotgun, either needing a new cell for each shot and shot damage scales with cell type, or do the fallout 4 thing with a kinetic crank

Posted: **Tue Oct 11, 2016 1:50 pm**

Make it so you'll need both components and a laser pointer to build one.
Then up the frequency of laser pointer drops.

I have an idea of how it could be made with semi-rare parts.

Code: Select all

Laser musket
To craft:-
1x pipe
1x modular receiver
15x cable coil
2x capacitors 
1x sheet of reinforced glass
1x rifle stock
Tools needed:- Wirecutters, wrench and screwdriver
Ammunition: Power cells damage scales with cell type. Standard (7.5k) cell does 15 burn damage at full power. Use inhand to eject empty power cells or use a power cell on the musket to perform a tactical reload.

You could make it right click toggleable to select a power setting on how much % it drains from the power cell. For example, setting it to 50% power would give you a two shot musket but you halve the damage potential of each shot. Setting it to 25% power gives you 4 shots but divides the damage potential by 4. And 10% gives you 10 shots but a tenth of the damage per shot.
Assuming a standard cell does 15 damage, the damage modifiers for each cell type could scale as such:-

Potato - 0.1x
Standard - 1x
High capacity 1.5x
Super capacity - 2x
Hyper capacity - 3x
Bluespace capacity - 6x

This gives the highest damage output at a 90 burn per beam but you have to make and carry a lot of bluespace cells to be able to keep that damage output up (plus you'd have to recharge your cells in a power cell charger which are notoriously slow). Setting it to 10% power would only give you 9 burn per shot with a bluespace cell. This makes it mostly inferior to the standard laser weapons except outside of a few rare circumstances, like you manage to surprise an OP, the HoS or a borg to a full powered, bluespace shot.

And of course, firing the musket with a plasma-filled cell will cause it to explode inhand, destroying the musket and probably take off your arm.

Poacher/Big Game Hunter costume or traitor clothing.
Basically you'd look like Van Pelt, and either it'd be cosmetic or actually armored/resistant to bleeding, or maybe just some sort of superpower in of itself. That comes with a requirement to shout at your enemies with a bad British accent while having infinite ammo for an elephant gun.
Or just the costume is good so we can have actual Assistant hunting safaris.

Bonfires require oxygen to function (parallel to torches), so that's a camp fire of sorts. I back up the stove suggestion, since having to construct a microwave is technologically advanced and options at current for rustic cooking are limited to throwing goliath steaks on the bonfire (which has a comparable burning to lava)

Space heater take upgrades which increase the temprature ranges and how fast they convert the environmental temperature, any engineer worth their salt methodically goes through and cools every tile post-fire with a upgraded heater for convenience, they can also receive new batteries.

On most maps the robotics lab already has a spare toolbelt and plenty of tools, I'm usually fine with the RD just grabbing that and would rather it continue to be like that instead of the RD starting with one. After all, that belt could also be given to another scientist in case we don't have an RD so they can do work as well.

I was turned into a living statue by a wizards change spell and I had some thoughts on the experience. You become a weeping angel and essentially can't move when watched while also having some vision affecting spells.

Overall not a bad thing. I think there should be some changes to how it's played.

The "You Cannot Move" message shouldn't pop up with every single input. This is because it gets spammed upon holding a button down, like moving. If possible, because I have no idea about the code behind this, can the message only pop up for 1 in 50 attempts? it would cut down on the spam and more reinforce the "you are a living statue" vibe.

The concept is fun and seeing the reaction of people as you move closer to them is fascinating. But, when a person is changed this isn't really obvious. A message upon being transformed would be a good reinforcement. something along the lines of "Their sight offends.... This world is not enough.... Escape eScapE esCApe...." would give an objective other than to murder everyone.

The living statue as an Antag round wouldn't be terrible from the statue perspective. It would be mostly hanging around in maintenance. Eventually breaking every APC and SMES to cut power and getting on the shuttle alone. From the show the only way to beat the angels was to get them to look at each other. So tricking the angels together would be difficult. 2 minimum and 4 maximum.

Finally, having the flicker light spell affect flashlights as well would be "cool" but probably too strong.

Just to gauge the general feeling but I feel, based on my observations as of late, that its still very easy for someone to crack a wall in the armory and watch as all the guns and ammo come sliding towards you.

There's always the argument that there should be someone always keeping an eye on the armory, which is a good point, but I want to ask if adding in a north facing glass pane on at least the guns in the armory would be a positive addition or a negative one. The advantage being that someone has to physically step into the armory to loot it from space.

Some kind of health analyzer/sensor + Proximity sensor assembly that goes off only if it detects anomalous readings in someone who passes within prox sensors set range. Such as: set to virus and people who pass by it will make it beep. Attach signaller to get an audio ping on the frequency, for choke points or to see if maybe someone leaves viro while infected, for instance.
Add laser trips to assembling or some sort of scanner addition for airlocks as a specific addition, with a set signaller ping frequency, response (detected virus triggers Quarantine protocol, bolting said airlock instead of opening or with further tweaking, bolting an entire dept if detected).

Make the option to be a Traitor and Double Agent separate. It used to be this way, and that unfortunately led to whatever DAs being caught by security going "I'm a double agent, so and so is my target and a double agent too". However, with Double Agent now having the singular objective of "Kill whoever" and regular traitors usually having two different objectives, DAs and Traitors being the same antag option is now pointless since anyone who's played for one day realizes they're a Double Agent.
