Pretty sure that's done through the mech's control interface.

Correct-o-mundo

Anyways, flight suits should "dodge" tile effects on lavaland like they do on station. For instance, flying over freon and space lube is enabled, but not over cacti, lava, and pits on lavaland.

Lava I can see being a thing since you'd still get cooked flying over it, but a suit that makes you literally fly should definitely provide defence against a hole in the ground

That was my point. Anyways, it's more than you shouldn't just burst into flames and take the massive lava damage immediately that you normally do.

Sorta like being in a fireproof hardsuit while being on fire. You still heat up as normal, but you're not taking damage from the fire or lava.

Make bluespace teleport beacons work on moving shuttles, including the escape shuttle - but less-upgraded teleporters used to get to those beacons have a tendency to preserve your standing momentum, flinging you into the back wall of the shuttle at speed.

Armhulen did not have enough GPB for the feature. Someone with more GPB could copy and post it, or Armhulen himself can farm GPB and ask to have it opened again. The close had nothing to do with the merit of the PR itself.

Make catpeople longsighted, giving them the inverse of the shortsighted overlay.

Cats in real life have poor close-range vision and it would be more realistic this way.

Change chemical overdose/addiction thresholds to greater than threshold rather than greater than or equal to threshold.

This makes chemistry just a bit sexier, and makes sleepers a little easier to use.

Make morphine only knock you out if it's an OD. Lower the OD threshold to 15u.

it has a really niche and legitimate use as an anti-slowdown chem but the knockout makes it unviable

Simple idea: Emagging a station-bounced radio or intercom system makes you able to listen in on all channels (but not necessarily transmit).

This would give traitors the benefit of emagging a station-bounce and being able to use it to listen in on Security (or taunt them), for example - the benefit of having a Syndicate encryption key, but you don't hear every channel at once.

This would have the drawback of being more obvious than the Syndicate encryption key since the radio would broadcast in the radius it currently does now (meaning Sec or the HoP could overhear you spying in on the Command channel, for example) and being obvious if someone were to check what frequency the radio's on (all the encrypted channels are in the 130s).

This could be handwaved in the lore by saying that the frequency locks on the radios are software-based and emagging one corrupts that limiter.

tl;dr
Benefits:
  • Can listen in on any channel with a regular radio without having to drop a couple of TCs on a separate encryption key
  • Can communicate with traitors without a special key
  • Can stick a radio with a hot mic somewhere hidden and annoy Sec with useless chatter of random passersby, or nick an ID + mask and taunt them over the radio
Drawbacks:
  • If the speaker is on, you can hear what's being said over that channel from a couple of tiles away
  • You don't hear every channel, so if one department moves to another frequency to coordinate you'd have to figure it out and change channels
  • Very obvious if the radio is examined in detail

Let us transfer pAIs to positronic brains! The gameplay reasoning here is that both are on-demand, silicon ghost roles. Players should not have to pAI suicide if positronic brains become available. It would be one way, of course.
