Re: Exploding Tesla
now that it actually blows shit up it should probably have its range/number of shocks toned down to compensate

Re: Exploding Tesla
Does it burn its power out by exploding shit while not being fed by a PA, the same way the singulo eventually dies out?

Re: Exploding Tesla
Singulo only dies out in like stage 2 once it hits stage 3 its pretty much set unless it fucks off to space and stage 5 means its never reverting back. Tesla never dies ever ever ever.Screemonster wrote:Does it burn its power out by exploding shit while not being fed by a PA, the same way the singulo eventually dies out?

Re: Exploding Tesla
Now that we buffed the tesla, we need to buff the singulo to match.
I vote that we give the singulo the same "Can never leave the Z-level" protection as the tesla, to prevent it fucking off into obscurity.

Re: Exploding Tesla
Not to mention this brings the tesla in line with the singulo already. You manchildren wanted a fucking never escapes on its own easier to set up babby tier hand holding infinite power with no drawbacks compared to the singulo. Why this took so long is absolutely beyond me

I like the sing, it looksprettier, and has a built in anti fuckery system that irradiates people who spend too long in the PA room.

If you leave the PA on, it should eventually explode its own containment and get loose.

Re: Exploding Tesla
it does, i think if it gets around 25(?) orbiting mini balls then the power surge it creates overloads the field generators and shuts them all off at once

I like the tesla changes overall. but the tesla gun is truly excessive.

Re: Exploding Tesla
it never fully dies, but it does get weaker. the number of orbiting balls (and therefore the range and spread of the zaps) goes down until none are left, leaving only 1 zap with little spread.Screemonster wrote:Does it burn its power out by exploding shit while not being fed by a PA, the same way the singulo eventually dies out?

Re: Exploding Tesla
While I don't think singularity should be buffed much more when it comes to its actual effects, adding the inability to leave the Z-level is something I'd really support.
It would appear that I'm a high RP weeb who hates roleplay and anime.

Re: Exploding Tesla
I just remembered the tesla's excuse for being added was "we need an engine that doesn't instantly end the round when it gets out" which makes it extra funny that we're talking about buffing the singulo to compete with the tesla destruction now.

That is a bad reason, safer power with no drawbacks was bad

Re: Exploding Tesla
Too many engine choices, Not enough energy needs.
Honestly, why do we need so much energy, no map makes real use of it.
there should be benefits to having multiple engines set up, besides frying hackers.

Maybe we could let engineers transfer excess energy into cannister sized batteries to sell through the cargo shuttle?
Or there could be a system where engineering can build a machine that sucks up power in exchange for various engineering themed rewards like faster tools, RCDs/compressed matter cartridges or hardsuit upgrades. At least then there would be an incentive to maximize the station's power output, and maybe even set up multiple engines.
