Replacing the Disposals System
Replacing Disposals Inlets (Where you put the trash) with trashcans, and removing the disposal pipes all around the station.
Replacing the inlets with trashcans, which have trashbags that can be taken out and replaced. Trashbags are replaced by the janitor who makes laps around the station going into departments to pick up trash. They don't have all access, and need to ask the AI/Department Staff to open the door.
One disposals unit is in the janitors office, which goes to the cargo disposal sorting thing, then from there, to the crusher/spacer combo thing.
The janitor starts with a box of trashbags, trashbags become tiny items with nothing in them, then scale with how many items are inside of them.
Overloading trashbags causes them to rip, dumping out the contents. Overloading is done by putting more items in once the bag has reached the large item category.
Pulling out a overloaded trashbag from a trashcan will rip the trashbag and dump the contents on the floor.
You can only overload a trashbag so much before it no longer accepts items.
Research can create boxes of nanofiber trashbags for extremely low research levels, and it only takes like 20 metal to make a box of the things, the research levels would be like mat 2 or something.
Research can also create boxes of bluespace trashbags, which are infinite and never need to be replaced, but once the item is in, it vanishes forever (to prevent client crashing from 9999 items) Bluespace trashbags would have relatively high research levels and require silver to create.
The pussywagon has a trashbag dispenser that can be loaded with up to 50 trashbags, clicking on the pussywagon will dispense one, the order in which you place them in is remembered (ie: you put in both nanofiber trashbags and normal trashbags)
The janitor starts with a shelf in his office now, which holds all the cleaning supplies (similar to how the janitor cart works, you can see all the items on it and what not) 3 boxes of 50 trashbags, 3 cleaning grenades, 1 spray bottle and one refill bottle (one you can't spray from, but contains 300 units of space cleaner) 6 wet floor signs, the holographic projector for wet floor signs, the mop, 2 bars of soap that are wrapped up and keys to the pussywagon a box of bear traps, and two boxes of mouse traps.
Also, new traitor item exclusive to the janitor, called the trashcan bomb. Disguised as a normal trashbag (or nanofiber/bluespace if you click it, it will change its type.) this acts as 2 syndicate minibombs when detonated, simply place into a trashcan and close the lid, the next person to open the trashcan will detonate the bomb, gibbing them. Costs 9 TC.
Leaving full trashbags laying around will spawn swarms of flies, which after idling on the trashbag for long enough, will start swarming humans, doing no damage, but giving a 30% chance to cause a random disease, and a 50% chance to drop a item in hand (from swatting) This should make a empahsis on why you would need to dispose of trash.
Pest-b-gone will kill fly swarms, but others will spawn soon after, spraying trashbags before hand will increase the time it takes for a swarm to manifest.
Hitting a trashbag with any sort of weapon (stun baton, cleaver, knife, esword, dual esword, claymore) will destroy it, leaving pieces of trashbag and trash on the floor and surrounding tiles.
Holding a trashbag in hand and dragging it to your other hand will rip it, leaving a ripped trashbag and trash on the same tile as you.
Ripped trashbags and trashbag pieces are completely useless, and constitute themseleves as trash.
A crate of 6 boxes of trashbags can be ordered from cargo for 10 points
A crate of 3 trashcans can be ordered from cargo for 20 points
Trashcans can't be wrenched down, and move freely by dragging.
You can construct a trashcan frame for 20 metal, wrenching it, then placing 10 metal on it will give you a trashcan. (Its much cheaper to order from cargo)
Trashcans can be shot over, can be shot to be destroyed into 20 metal on the ground. (Sometimes 17-23)
Trashcans are not bomb proof, can be destroyed by bombs, explosives, acid, or anything else.
If you hit a trashcan with a weapon, it will become damaged, and you will not be able to place trashbags in it, pull the current trashbag out, or close/open the lid. If the trashbag in it was a trashbag bomb, this will detonate the bomb.
You can welder undamaged trashcans to get 10 metal from the trashcan, which will then turn into a trashcan frame, wrenching the frame will disassemble it and you will get 20 metal in return.
You can also welder damaged trashcans, which will completely destroy them in return for 15 metal.
Will sprite if support is given. (Which even if it did, its not like anyones going to code these long drawn out ideas i make, so i'm starting to think spriting them before anyone even agrees to code them is pointless)

Disposals is iconic, fun, and adds a lot of depth to the game.
I'd be okay with trashcans in some public areas, but doing away with disposals entirely is a terrible idea.

Re: Replacing the Disposals System
As a system, it's a very badly made, fairly buggy and computationally difficult system, which fails at everything it's meant to do - it fails at being able to take out the trash due to being very clunky and slow to use, it fails at disposing of bodies because it takes them to a nearly publicly accessible area, it fails at facilitating escapes, it fails at facilitating movement of people around the station (such as breaking into or out of restricted areas), it fails at delivering things (good god is mail awful).
I also really don't care much for 'iconic', because that's inherently a temporary state. What was iconic 2 years ago is not iconic anymore today.
I think that replacing the station-wide disposal system with trash cans and a much simpler dumb waiter delivery system, makes a lot of sense. Basically trash cans being more or less simple container items the janitor is expected to maintain, giving him an excuse to enter areas that are off limits to him usually, with possibly some sort of time limited more-access card, which gives him temporary access to areas of the station in time intervals - for example giving him access to engineering for 10 minutes, then medbay for the next 10 minutes, etc.
As for the dumb waiter, it'd be a very basic system which allows its users to move items from dumb waiter to dumb waiter. Nothing more or less than that. No cargo involved, no dumb mail system, no buggy disposal system, etc.
I don't think disposal pipes as a system should be removed though. I think they should remain constructable, and I agree that there should still be pipes in some areas.

Re: Replacing the Disposals System
Okay, let's just go through some of the things that make this bad.
Nobody will ever be keen on letting the janitor in to move trash around. Why would I bother? He's just going to slip up the place. Also, players will think he might murder them.
Trash cans take 30 metal(!!!) to make. 30! A wall is, like, less than 5 pieces. Girders are just 2. I know what I'm disassembling next time I need to make a fortress, because fucking hell, that's a lot of materials. A ripley isn't more than 50 sheets. If I disassemble two trashcans, an r-wall, and a couple of windows, I can make a god-damn mech. That's how much metal these are made of.
Swarms of flies are causing random diseases! To everyone! The virologist can't keep up with that, and he won't. There aren't even that many diseases: if 30% of fly swarms cause a disease, and the station has 20 trash cans where someone's put, like, a cigarette butt in or a piece of paper or whatever, then the station has about 6 different diseases running around. You know how quick those spread? It's a shitshow. One of them is probably brainrot.
But don't worry, everyone in the crew will use that pest spray that's only in botany and the garden! No, they won't. And besides, why would we want everyone in the crew to have a refillable spray can? Slip memes are bad enough already.
There's this detailed construction thing for what is basically a box bolted to the floor. Seriously, just replace the word 'trashcan' with 'locker' and you've got pretty much the same thing, only this has contingencies for every damn situation.
You're removing a system that provides a fun and interesting escape from almost every room on the station.
You're removing the endless potential for disposals sabotage and disposal rides.
You're removing 90% of stuff from cargo disposals and the recycling crusher.
You're adding 50% more busywork to the janitor.
You can't shove a person in a trashbag or yourself hide inside one.

you fucking hate trashbags that even mildly inconvience you from your hardcore disposals action.
my deep apologies for attempt to remove your precious disposals system, i'll make sure to add more shit next time to a station that already lags to all hell when something even mildly chaotic occurs.

the mild possiblity that i was high off my ass when i wrote this has nothing to do with how F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C of a idea it is.

Re: Replacing the Disposals System
Disposals shouldn't lag that much at all, it is very different from the other network systems such as power and atmos.
The only thing is that I think it should be easier to lay the pipes.
Removing either the welding or wrenching step would be a very nice chance that should make placing disposals systems more attractive.

The disposals system cant be removed without major remapping.
Like, 50% of its purpose is an emergency escape route for when you have no access.

Its less fun, that is the most important thing. Bins are boring, disposals can be used to fuck around and actually do things.LiamLime wrote:I honestly cannot fathom why anyone would care about the disposal system enough to think that the idea of replacing it with something simpler is fucking obviously a bad thing.
The most excessive signature on /tg/station13.
Still not even at the limit after 8 fucking years.

Re: Replacing the Disposals System
The "good features" part. Disposals are awful and replacing them with something that does item and mob transportation better would be a good step in my opinion. Notice that I said "something simpler", I didn't say trash cans. I'm confused by the knee jerkiness of the "do not change disposals, they are an important part of SS13" reaction to the very idea of replacing disposals, not about people disliking trash cans as the replacement.ShadowDimentio wrote:What part of "we shouldn't be removing perfectly good features to replace with shitty gimmicks" doesn't make sense to youLiamLime wrote:I honestly cannot fathom why anyone would care about the disposal system enough to think that the idea of replacing it with something simpler is fucking obviously a bad thing.

Re: Replacing the Disposals System
Like I said, placing disposals should be made easier.
Merging trunks with the bins/chutes on top would also make it less of a pain.

Re: Replacing the Disposals System
Disposals are also a gigantic pain to map. Ideally any replacement wouldn't be quite as hard.
I code for the code project and moderate the code sections of the forums.

Re: Replacing the Disposals System
I dunno, replacing disposals seems like the wrong move.
I've seen plenty of traitorous acts enabled by them.
Earlier this month or the last a traitor managed 11 kills with an emagged grinder and rerouted disposals, don't change it

Re: Replacing the Disposals System
Disposals can be interrupted, trapped or redirected to trespass. Trashbags bring anal retentive bag tearing mechanics and then just feed into a single disposals point for the janitor anyway then go through the rest of the "flawed" disposals system to the crusher anyway.
