Greater Bag of Holding

Feature Idea:

Greater Bag of Holding.

Higher tier of research to get it, but worth it? Anything placed inside is transported to a pocket dimension in bluespace. This potentially allows for storage of things like, the particle accellerator in your bag, for example. Or entire mobs. Or even just something as humble as infinite item storage.

It comes with 3 main drawbacks:

- One, in order to find stuff in the bag, you have to either dump it all out, or climb into the bag to find it.
- Two, mobs and dangerous mobs placed inside the bag can attempt to climb out.
- Three, The bag is quite fragile, and can't sustain much internal damage before it will explode, launching its contents everywhere and being unusable ever again.

Traps could be set using the bag, where mobs would 'fall into it' by accident. And the bag could be dumped out into a prison cell, or slime pit.

Alternatively, the bag could be used as a smaller, reuseable survival pod, where the miner just throws it down, and hops inside to wait out the ash storm, at the cost of being able to tell when the storm ends.

If implemented, how big would you like the bag to be?

For the mechanics, is there anyone against bags leading to the same subspace? Acting like an ender chest from minecraft.

The D&D bags of holding were airless, and probably some other properties that made them inhospitable to life.

I actually already added bags that do this

You suffocate after about 10 minutes in one, at least in 3.5/Pathfinder.

Yes. But i mean a physical area of space, not a storage space.

It would be cheaper to make them link to the same subspace, because otherwise a new area would need to be used for each additional bag created. Either limiting bags, or requiring some preparation before the bag can be used. (designating an area of space for the bag, potentially allowing for any-size bags, but requiring a fair bit more effort on the players part.)

I'm thinking similarly. They are airtight, but can be filled with air by tossing an air canister into it, and releasing the valve.

Thats a portable hole. Which is the stronger than all versions of the bag of holding.

Could make a hilarious traitor item if it could be disguised as different types of backpacks. Imagine some assistant grabbing what he thinks is a security backpack off the ground hoping to find a taser or baton in it and opening it only for an esword wielding traitor to jump out and murder the fuck out of him before climbing back in with the assistant's corpse to await his next victim. We funnel spiders now.

A weird as fuck blue space level for scientists to try and bore wormholes through would be fun.
Scientists could basically bore a path through the higher dimensions maybe fighting the odd blue space angel or something to survey and reach a point that corresponds with where they want easy transport to. Remember to bring your warp suit or whatevs.

Also used for this obviously *scientist infiltrates your pocket dimension and bombs you*.

I would love to see lava being pumped through a wormhole to engineering as some insane space geothermal plant, cue ashwalker vikings boating in.

Only if they make instant supermatter singularities if you try to store one in another

They make bluespace singularities that can blink.

Putting a greater bag into a greater bag should delete both bags and dump the contents into a little corner of the centcomm z-level full of monstrosities and the only way to get back to the station is telescience or something

We should make the server lore that it's just in a giant bag

But even that bag pales in comparison to the biggest bag

Are you suggesting a krampus bag, because i am okay with throwing little greyshirts in my bag to work the sweatshop.

i want to make this, it sounds fun

does linked mean all greater bags of holding share the same space?

Yeah, linked would mean they share the same space.

Unlinked means you have to designate a space that the bag links to. Effectively a physical area wherever the fuck you want, in whatever size or shape that you want. And the bag acts as a teleporter to/from there.

No, it's not a portable hole, it's a bag of holding.

If living creatures are placed within the bag, they can survive for up to 10 minutes, after which time they suffocate.

Can we set up a PA in our bag of holding and open it at people who we hate so they get blasted by a PA? :)
Bonus points if you can actually do that... with all projectiles! >Emitter array in greater bag of holding >Opens end at blob
