GOD. DAMN IT. I HATE MICE SO MUCH.

Anyway, cool stuff that may have slipped away through the years:

I don't think this ever got fixed?

Lock stuff behind something other than Toxins/Atmospherics

HUD buttons instead of verbs, but for the implants that don't work that way (like the nukie boom) if there still are any - I think the EMP implant maybe?

But instead now you'll be actin' like a real chicken-wo(man) should, BAKAWHHH!!!!
With the chef mustache and speech-altering genetics, we should add this at least to the head if it's too hard to make the head check for the suit.

My suggestions for general assemblies start with the basic You rig the crate. message, after you add the wire.
After wiring the crate:
+bike horn: upon attempting to open the crate, a deafening HONK! sound puts you on your ass
+generic spray bottle: upon attempting to open the crate, sprays whatever reagent in the container at you
+signaller: upon attempting to open the crate, the assembly signals at the frequency the signaller was set to
+chemgrenade: upon attempting to open the crate, the chemgrenade is activated, and the appropriate reaction occurs
+improvised firebomb(soda IED): upon attempting to open the crate, pop!
+syndicate minibomb: upon attempting to open the crate, bye
+gas tank(plasma/oxygen): upon attempting to open the crate, the tank releases all gas inside
+generic grenades(flashbang/viscerator/teargas/etc): upon attempting to open the crate, activates grenade
+syringe: upon attempting to open the crate, you are injected all reagents in the syringe

Any more suggestions? Clown related would be great.
I think it would be cool if you could use wirecutters and then a screwdriver to disarm whatever assembly, except for the electro pack one(should require insulated gloves.
Let me know immediately if this is actually in btw

Crew transfer as an alternative to Emergency Evac for RP reasons, I beg. Definitely not a minor issue, probably, knowing how shuttles are.

Probably too hard to do but it would rule
rockpecker wrote: Fri Dec 05, 2014 10:54 pm Candles as an alternate way to make chemical smoke would be cool. Something like: grind up candles or crayons (cause we don't have bees on this server) to make wax, then heat in the microwave to make it back into candles. Anything else in the container becomes part of the candle and will get vaporized as it burns. You can now get high just by walking past hydroponics.
Would it be possible to have the candle formula we already have add any reagents also in their container, perhaps up to the volume of the candle reaction (or some portion of it), as part of the reaction?

looks like a normal book, acts like a normal book, can fit in the bookbag and be titled etc
does moderately high brute damage, especially when thrown

might belong in the shitty suggestions thread but i'd use it
Also make Space Law copies have unusually high force so you can THROW THE BOOK AT PEOPLE you know you want it


SO YEAH

These are just the ones I think are remotely feasible, whether actually a small suggestion or not, that have slipped through the cracks and might be easy but could be cool to have. And that's all just pages 1-10, which hasn't left the year 2014 yet.
