Bottom post of the previous page:

if man was mentioned to swim it wouldn't be so funny watching the sub slam into the walls over and over.

my traitor target tripped and broke his neck so I decided to cut through the airlock. but I could only get one tank so I know you hording autists had like three each

8 people is the standing record for deaths due to fuckup. on the upshot I now know you need to full reverse to stop

A few very important things I'll repeat again:

1) Opening the airlock in most submarines causes them to start plummeting towards the ocean floor for some reason. Communication with the Captain is essential so he can basically put the submarine in park (Autopilot, Maintain Position) first. It gets worse and worse the smaller the sub is, but even large submarines you can sneakily cause to start crashing as soon as the round starts by just running over and flooding the airlock (not even the whole sub, just that one room). The ship will start drifting towards the floor at a pretty decent clip while the Captain is likely still gathering his things or trying to get the crew organized.

2) Put the sub in park (again, by checking the "Autopilot" and "Maintain Position" buttons on the nav console) whenever you aren't at the controls. It's essential you do this or else the sub will start rocketing the last direction you left the throttle pointing as soon as it regains power, causing it to get wrecked again.

3) Outside of Maintaining Position, Autopilot is fucking useless. Don't use it for anything else or you'll crash.

4) Mechanics and Engineers are essential. Please don't queue as anything else if there are fewer than 8 people playing. Nothing says "We're already dead" like walking out of my cabin as captain and seeing my crew of six people is myself, two security guards, an assistant, a medical doctor, and a single engineer.

Tigershark, but yeah pretty nice work there.

Skorvold, Wyzack, and myself have earned a special place as grizzled sea-commandos for surviving a direct hit on our escape pod from the ship's railguns (THANKS ASSHOLES). We all immediately scrambled into diving suits and abandoned ship in like under three seconds.

I'm not sure to what extent shit flying around can hurt you but I swear I got my head practically knocked off by a fire extinguisher during a crash.

Azari got put into glitch space by oranges' rampant harm batoning, then super accelerated into the past by my crashing the sub at top speed.

It's not rare to get killed instantly by a crash anymore.

I think it's actually the number one cause of fatalities on our subs. Moloch's ramming into the ship or the ship crashing into the rocks below after sinking kill more people than anything else.

The number two cause of death on the sub is Jazaen, followed by oranges.

The best part is where the last two guys on the sub kept fixing leaks in one spot which let the sub rise open throttle right into the rocks. because they just had to both fix the leak they did this five times in ten minutes until they literally ran out of air tanks

He works mainly on the multiplayer and base game mechanics right now, I believe

Single player is basically multiplayer with persistency and NPC crew instead of players, so those are things that can be added after the game mechanics are fleshed out

If the sub gets fucked ride out the crash. It's the Captain's solemn duty to basically handcuff himself to the wheel. You go down with the ship.

When the sub impacts the floor quickly put it in park. This will prevent the endless cycle of dude fixes flooding -> sub regains buoyancy and skyrockets into more rocks, causing another flood -> sub needs repairs

Some people don't realise a single flooded room would sink the sub anyway so they close the doors to pumps and shit rupturing anyone who tries to fix the breach without a diving suit.

There was a sub built around an open super ballast and a trillion engine controls and readouts and while it is a bit spergy it is actually pretty resilient, this group of geniuses scoffed at it.

People are annoyed over the open doors because

1. Reactor door open = Reactor gets flooded as soon as the sub has even one breach.
And if the reactor is flooded, the power dies within a few moments.
And if the power is dead, pumps won't work to pump that water out. This is why batteries are important too, but it's best not to need them.

2. More water in the sub/more flooded space = Sub goes down faster
Sub going down faster means it hits the rocks harder
And it hitting the rocks harder means it will break more of its bottom hull, thus letting in more water and just being a generally bad deal for everyone. Sure, you'll sink either way if there's a flooded room. But you don't want to sink at full speed because physics. (Also, if you're carrying explosives on the sub sinking slowly is much prefered over hitting the rocks hard. Because some explosives will explode on a hard impact but are fine on a 'soft' impact.)
If the subs were designed better, the water wouldn't need open doors for a path to pumps, but that's a sub design thing and not a door thing

It's all about that water physics. If you close the doors, you're much safer than if they're left open. Especially if something big like a whole floor gets breached by something big

XSI more or less nailed it but the best way to think of water in Barotrauma is to treat it like plasma/gas leaks in SS13. It's not flammable, but if you keep opening doors it gets everywhere, making it harder to clean up and conduct repairs, and if someone just randomly opens the door to a flooded room they risk flooding more of the ship, which also displaces oxygen and can lead to people suffocating faster if the power is out or the o2 generator got shorted.

Pressure also builds up over time as leaks are exposed to water, so having an entire deck exposed to open ocean for a minute or so could mean that the entire deck is filled with lethal levels of pressure that will kill you in seconds, if the repair crew didn't move the diving suits around to quickly accessible areas one door left open to a hallway could literally be the difference between a successful mission and sub going down into the abyss.

You want to keep rooms closed off that are flooding to slow the descent into hell like XSI said.

You obviously don't want to shut doors on areas if there are people still trapped inside, but people are so fucking stupid when it comes to doors and not closing them when they're the last one out that it drives me crazy and I wouldn't mind slamming a few of you closed in an overpressured area anyway.

Close.the.fucking.doors.

In addition to slowing the descent it gives everyone else a chance to gear up and then get over and fix it. You shouldn't be just walking around hording all the O2 and wearing a diving suit if nothing is going wrong. Put that shit back. Carrying one O2 canister in a diving mask is enough to escape flooding areas as long as everyone is shutting the fucking doors. People can just randomly die during impacts for magic reasons so having one person horde all that shit and suit up, start drinking O2 even though nothing is happening, and then just die and fall into the ballast or out of the ship when we crash = gg no re

When people are closing all the doors you can calmly go get the things you need to fix it, then open it up and jump in, close it behind you, then repair at your leisure. When all the doors are open it's just a matter of time before everyone everywhere is fucked. People trapped in the front of the sub wont be able to swim through the pressured middle to get to the airlock and the repair supplies in the aft sections. etc.

The only ship design where you should just say fuck it and leave everything open all the time is the Nehelania IIRC because it has this really stupid design where there's like a sewer system and if one compartment cracks open the whole sub is going to flood anyway.

never go below the floor ice

Silly monsters live down there and any hole drops you straight to crush depth

also never fuck with the controls of the respawn shuttle. turning on autopilot is a death sentence.

You can refill oxygen bottles anyway, assuming there is power, so carrying more than two (one in mask and one in plasma cutter) at a time is a waste.

browsing the custom sub list this one seemed good

automatic airlock sounds like a great feature

The little sewer thing on the Nehelania is honestly a great idea and very interesting to look at how it works. But it needs a system to make sure the water doesn't flow UP the pipes and it needs to actually be fixable without having to leave the sub to actually be viable

Plus, that one has a thing where the junction box for the pump to get all the water out is right next to the pump.
So it gets flooded and shorts as soon as there is water that needs to be pumped out
Which stops the pump from getting power and pumping out water. Unless you rewire the thing to use a different box

The Compensator's airlock is amazing
Seriously, even the dev commented on that one, he was impressed. It looks like a mess, but it's functional and does anything you want it to do

So when are we going to make a /tg/ ship?
I volunteer for doing wiring, and maybe putting the supplies in closets.

a /tg/ sub needs maintenance tunnels and an oversized bridge

Setting the tool box, now bloodied, back on the table; I went to heal myself with a medkit. I clubbed myself in the head with that too.
I've come a long ways from asking how to switch hands.

I could create a general outline shape. I blueprinted our Ice station when we were playing Starbound as a big group and that worked out okay. I'll doodle some shit up.

Okay let me explain this piece of shit:

Blue area:
Command, where all the gun controls are located and the NAV controls too.

Brown:
Egress Airlock. For going in and out of the sub in a suit.

Purple:
Ballast area. Simple enough

Green:
Medbay/Chemistry area.

Orange(the center area, if you can't tell it apart from yellow):
Engineering, where the reactor is located alongwith the batteries. Nice and protected in the middle of the sub.

Red:
Cargo, where all the general supplies and tools are stored. Also attached to cargo at the top is a docking port for subs.

Yellow:
The mechanics fabrication area and more tool storage I guess

??????:

Unused space? Maybe stuff some more batteries and shit down here or just cut this part off the sub entirely. could be a good place to put another airlock so minisubs with the port on top can dock down here. Actually just sawing this section off completely would give the sub a really cool looking profile, like a giant fish.

Lines are just POSSIBLE connections between areas, but not really necessary. For example having the airlock lead directly into the reactor is probably a bad idea, but maybe we want that kind of FUN to be possible? Making a double-hulled indestructable super sub might ruin the game a bit if we can just cheese everything.

I'd like the Nehelania a lot more if there were one-way pumps into the sewer tube thing

I think that'd be a good way to fix it

Maybe make them fuckable so you can make them pump out of the sewer tube instead

You forgot: Security+Brig (Don't want traitors getting easy stunrods from a hallway closet)
Medbay might not need to be big. As of the present time all medbay is is some closets and a dispenser for chems after all
And the airlock. Though you have mentioned that.
Also you're missing maintenance tunnels. Maybe have tunnels/hallways in between each section, just like SS13? Bonus points for traitors being able to flood the hallways and lock everyone in their own job areas. Just like a plasma fire would lock medbay inside, and blocks people from reaching the escape shuttle. Depends on if we want something small and compact, or if we want a big, more luxurious sub I suppose
You should probably add a few smaller closets too. Just for putting junction boxes, minimaps for engineers to check damage and random closets in. Some space to hide if you're the clown and security is after you wouldn't do badly either. Maybe fluff them as just being rooms with a bed?

Edit:

Pressure only happens if there's a big breach. A small breach can be fixed without diving suit, but anything big or that has been open for a long time becomes pressurised.
I do agree you need a bit more warning before you just die though

Your visual cues for pressure building up are the screen zooming in and you get an icon in the health area of four arrows pointing inward. It's an orange icon. It fades in, the more solid it is the worse the pressure is. When it is solid orange you die.
