remove omegastation from rotation

Post by Tlaltecuhtli » #437358

its
- unmaintained/not updated to current code changes
- low pop servers and high pop servers hate it (look how terry fucking died after months of omegastation as default map)
- kills pop
- ugly
- quality > quantity

lets make more points here
>shitty techstorage that's in escape's maintenance because ???
>needlessly limits job slots, no viro/other command slots/etc
>ai upload/vault room with zero defense other than slippery foam ejectors
>no toxins
>a single chem dispenser
>no circuits (even though circuits are a shit)
>3 xenobio pens
>no genetics
>no holodeck
>little to no maintenance tunnels

why anybody would like this map bemuses me

I don't know any mappers that would be willing to sink time into fixing Omega's glaring structural issues.

If you're curious why I think that the map is beyond repair:

- The size doesn't work with bombs - you can destroy the entirety of medbay with a single bomb.
- It's missing entire areas - Viro, Genetics, a nanite lab, holodeck, toxins, proper tech storage, the gulag.
- Lack of head jobs means that A) early shuttle launching is almost always impossible, B) calling the shuttle is much harder due to lack of comms consoles and C) head items are stuffed into regular staff lockers.
- The AI upload has no turrets or windoors - in fact, most high security areas have rglass windows that you can just smash.
- There are no solars. This pretty much guarantees a round end if the SME blows up.
- Botany and the kitchen (the two areas that actually need to be adjacent to each other) are separated by a comically large hallway.

We had a lot of other stations before.

Maybe Ministation wasn't that bad?

>kills pop
so does box
>ugly
have you seen box
>quality > quantity
i don't see why that's a bad thing, also it's the opposite of box
>no holodeck
implying you need a holodeck
>little to no maintenance tunnels
maint as a whole is big enough when you compare it to the rest of the station, besides it's not just the tunnels that make good maint
>The size doesn't work with bombs
implying bombs work anywhere else and aren't just an automatic shuttle call
>Botany and the kitchen (the two areas that actually need to be adjacent to each other) are separated by a comically large hallway.
it's no hallway my man, it's the dining area
>We don’t need a lowpop map
implying box or meta work for 2-3 peep rounds

omega is superior to every other map ever created and i will 1v1 you in minecraft if you say otherwise

Box is good boi

2-3 people rounds don’t sound enjoyable. May as well go full on singleplayer if you’re not expecting to meet anyone, then you’ll at least be able to give yourself admin commands.

It definitely shouldn’t be a consideration for keeping an unmaintained map in the code.

It's not up to date with code and gameplay changes at all. It's gotta go, my man.

pubby does literally like the whole lowpop map thing like 10 times better than omega, without putting strangleholds on job slots/equipment/station areas

Yes. It's the map of two-tile hallways and claustrophobia.
