we should make the chain of command useful

Post by Shadowflame909 » #641965

curator has a whip that is much cooler

screw the curator that griefing valid hunter he does not deserve to outshine the captain!

I say to keep its usage as a neat occasional thing. It should do much more damage on revs and have a higher deconvert proc. Remind them of the chain of command!

It's like how the chaplains bible has a lot of uses but no one cares...

What if they made it a buffed version of the curator's whip that only someone with the captain's hat or spacesuit can use.

The hat just serves as a funny limitation.

Make it set cult/undead and other supernatural things on fire. You know. That chain.

Because you people are too busy thinking about bashing people and validhunting, id say instead simply having the heads of staff's names etched into the links as a visual metaphor if people need a reminder.

make it just do a fuckload of stamina damage, so you can just discipline your subjects, instead of killing them

I would think Chains bind people more than anything, so Chain of Commands being super handcuffs that bind the hands of those below you could be interesting.
I know this would be a giant pain in the ass to program, but not being able to use the Chain of Command on someone who outranks you, but works normally on people of the same rank, and twice as effective (half the animation time to cuff) on those of lower rank would be entertaining.
