Honestly, I don't believe, that planetstation will ever be.

Planet station will be in development hell for two more years until it is released as its own server in 2020.

Ligga If I knew how to sprite, I wouldn't be here. But it's hoslaser + hoslaser_kill not hoslaser_empty anyway. I would have to put in charge sprites and merge it too I guess.

100% hack of a recolor on another sprite from somewhere.

Nabski, I don't want to sound ungrateful, but the whole point of Crab People is for them to be non humanoid.

I have had a vast misunderstanding of what you wanted for a while then.
Re: Crab People

They are literally just supposed to be Crabs, like on the images. Sentient animals. Minimal clothing and gear. Unique both visually and mechanically.

Wrong perspective.
Spurdo. Not enough detail.
Re: Crab People

Ok, since Nabski will make us sprites (right? RIGHT?), it's time to move past the meme-phase, and into debate-phase. I will write down all the Crab People features and mechanics, so they're easier to discuss.
The idea behind Crab People is to have a non-humanoid race, with significant strengths and weaknesses.
MOVEMENT
-Mech style movement. Turning in place. Ripley speed.
OPTION: Speed could still be modified with chemicals. I don't like it, cause inevitable power-gaming.
-Option to "strafe". Move perpendicularly to your facing direction.
Since they have no walking modifier, walking button/shortcut could be used for strafing.
-Not hindered by slippery floors or zero-g.
-Can't be pushed when in harm/disarm intent.
-Can't be grabbed aggressively.
CLAWS
-Claws act as a wrench, wirecutter and crowbar by default.
-They can hold and use all other items, but not very well
OPTION: They could also be able to hold large items in both claws, similarly to Ripley.
ROF and FIDDLE mechanics
[list]-Firearms and other projectile tools (portal gun) would have reduced rate of fire.
-All other tools and items would require you to FIDDLE with them beforehand (Similarly to DMCA and lack of skill).[/list]
OPTION: After you FIDDLED with an item for the first time, you would then be able to use it normally as long as you keep it in the same claw.
PROBLEM: Surgery. SOLUTION: Surgery could just use "screw up" mechanic with no fiddling, but I'm not sure if you could code a conditional like this.
-Claws deal brute damage in melee combat.
OPTION: Maybe have increased chance to cause bleeding.
-Claws have a sharp modifier.
PROBLEM: Maybe too OP?
-Claw can be used to grab humanoids pretty easily, similarly to CQC Grab-Grab.
GENERAL OPTION: They could also have electrical insulation by default, since Crab People can't wear gloves.
CARAPACE
-Two layers of health: Carapace health and "Body" health. To harm the "body", you need to get through the carapace first.
-Carapace has a chance to reflect energy projectiles.
-Carapace heals by itself really slowly.
-Carapace is space-worthy.
-Carapace protects only head and torso ("body"), limbs are expendable (they are separate, their damage won't count towards "body" health).
-When you lose a limb, it will regrow after a while ( you can speed the process up with nutrition).
CLOTHING AND STUFF
-Crab People can only wear glasses, helmets/hats, masks, belts and backpacks.
PROBLEM: Limited visual uniqueness and identity. SOLUTION: Lots of skin colour variants - shouldn't be that hard to do, after Nabski makes the sprites (right, RIGHT?). Add a neck slot, so Crab can wear some bling, a necktie or a bed sheet
OPTION: Crab People must take off their backpack first, to open it, like medics in DMCA.
I hope I didn't miss anything.
