Duct Tape

Post by Cuboos » #162545

Apply duct tape to things, that thing can now be stuck to almost anywhere. Duct Tape a knife to a clean bot a couple clean bots, roomba fight! Duct tape a flashlight to the double barrel shotgun, mounted light! Duct tape a flashlight to a hat, instant helmet lamp! Duct tape a C4 to a bomb core, throwable snydi-bomb! Duct tape a door, ghetto bolting! There's probably an endless uses we could think of for duct tape!

Dont give ERP'ers encouragement.

You could do the same thing with blue-tack (stickyish globules of blue gelatin used in offices for sticking paper and such together) but duct tape seems robust.

Toning down the reliability and having it risk shattering apart the modifications would stop over-use.

I was also thinking, for like the ghetto bolting, after three attempts or so of opening the door, the tape would rip and the door would go back to operating like normal/hit it with something sharp cuts it instantly.

Nothing encouraging about having your genitals taped off.

I know, cloacas are easier to cover up and I guess removing duct tape from scales probably hurts a little less than removing it from skin, but...

All of this would require a lot of work, in code and sprites, but some sort of Space Tape would definitely be helpful. I'll add my suggested uses:

Tape someone's mouth to gag them. Obviously it's removable, but not if they're restrained.

Tape someone generally to restrain/cuff them. Obviously it would take a bit longer than with pre-prepared cuffs: you'd want to get them in a chokehold or have someone else keep them stunned while you do it.

Tape a knife/combat knife/energy dagger to a firearm/crossbow to give it a bayonet. Just increases the damage of normal pistol whipping.

Tape some metal sheets together to make a Ned Kelly breastplate. Slows you down, but better than nothing.

Tape a locker shut to make it like it's welded, only, well, not so strong. Just like the door.

Traitor duct tape

All the uses of normal duct tape, but takes longer to remove and lessens the risk of whatever you taped together just falling apart

It's oranges.
In game, I play the A.I Firmware, the French cyborg C.U.R.I.E, Aubrie Allen, and the lizard scum Skulks-Through-Maintenance.

Oh, I forgot some other ones:

Duct tape a body bag shut. Good if you stun someone and they then have to flop around trying to escape.

Duct tape over scrubbers and vents to form a temporary seal. Eventually it'll break, or be ripped off, or burn away.

I think some of these mods could be achieved through table crafting.
