What about mid/lategame drawnings of cognitohazard on floor/paper, infecting through examine? Finally, a use for "draw in blood"! Ability to make everyone hallucinate the same thing? Now everyone has same split personality friend, or sees every human being as cult artificer, and this is how universe worked this whole time, totally.

Why not remove IAA without merging it into HoP? You say it is an antagonistic force to crew both IC and OOC that makes new players feel unwelcome. Is it even needed, then? Can IAA players, like CommanderXor, give example of things they are doing for the good of the game (that is not done by other jobs)? What IAA duties shouldn't be gimped, with examples?

Is spread of Offworlder-style colonies controlled or no? Aka, do new settlements need to use gravity generators, for otherwise you are spreading majorly sick people?

Because it is a disabiity and not a race? Thought, coders say it's not possible right now, so it's off the charts anyway. Might open a window to fixing it ingame (clone out of it), or for multi-racial Offworlder sickness.

Will antag RIG modules fit into gravity boys' one? In what way are they pressure resistant? Hard skin, low density? If first, can they be slash damage resistant? Is their rig power-intensive? WIll they become permastunned from single EMP? Will there be superior models that actually work like real rigs (for there's a demand)? Are their houses long, with high ceilings? Are they comfortable on most stations, or do they permacrouch? Are there ways to fix the baby after it's borne in no-gravity? Early gravity change to normal one, surgery? Is it practised if yes? Are offworlders being bigoted against, are there politicians/other important people with this sickness? In what way their culture's changed? Everyone's weak + gravity is null, so police might have problems regulating people as well as people might have problems doing low level agressive criminal stuff (then there are guns, so it might lead to rise of lethality because non-lethal options don't work so well) With their blood flowing slower, do they get less oxygen to all organs (did i get it right)? If yes, are they physically dumber because brain gets less + other organ malfunctions, or is it where they did genetically adapt/something else?

What are the costs of rigs compared to bodily prothesics? Will RIGs be RND/cargo aquirable? Are there off-worlders who use prothesics to ignore major part of gravity distoration? If they are cloned, will they come out as their old shitty long boy self, or are there ways to grow a normal body for them? What's human reaction on "our ancestors fucked up half o' human race into hoes", and how expansistic moods were changed by it? What alien races think about our major fuckup? Are there any changes to military provess of humanity, now that majority of them are so weak their bones break when they walk without help? Are they comfortable on ships without gravity?

Why not make this into a *disability* for humanoid races instead?

Adaptation silent kills sound very much like ganking, and they are encouraged to do so because they unlock useful powers only lategame - worse then old ling? Maybe let them become a parasite on their own, overpowered borer style? Might help in all three tasks, as they sound weak in all but escaping cuffs/ventcrawling.

"SUNSHINE’s birth was only a year after the first AI algorithm leak in 2437, and since then its unique nature has led to the construction of an immense space station purpose-built to indefinitely house the ever-improved intelligence. It primarily exists as a heavy duty number-cruncher, with its “artificially intelligent” traits more so being a side project as its creators progressively upgrade and expand its hardware. An average of nine hundred individual businesses rent out portions of SUNSHINE’s processing power annually." Nine hundred individuals with ability to ask AI about making better stuff, I think, is big enough number that someone would ask, if AI just could churn out blueprints. Or, well, Unathi would ask Oss AI how to make self-replicating nanobotes to conquer the universe. Why not make Aut'akh use technology of Vaurca? That would give more lore to ants, remove "AI can make new magical technology on a whim, stop, why we didn't ask AI how to control the entire world as Unathi-bound Glorsh" point from the story, fit in with "augment children from birth" point, but would require shortening Aut'akh's existance time to three-two years instead of ten

"Blueprints are produced by Oss" sounds like asking SUNSHINE honey comb AI to make even better blueprints (aka, why R&D departament exists at all, if asking AI to manufacture superfactories for superaugments is possible). Why something like that wasn't done? Or was?

Time to totally believe that as skrell

Surprisingly, subrace itself looks balanced enough that discomfort about "we can add X only if it's edgy, being badass/human is forbidden" will be diminished, in the end, and it indeed opens a way to add augments to other races. Will implant section be expanded? Half of sub-fractions don't have their mechanics, it seems (camo systems, wireless connection). Will there be uplink-only unathi implants, in future? Traitors need their nodrop lasers/diamond-tipped bullets "I am "interested" to see how the lore justifies Unathi outcasts somehow having access to the technology, resources, and industrial capacity, to invent, design, and mass produce what are pretty fucking advanced augmentations"-le lord fowl, discord salt. Plz explain What's the public reaction of Skrells to a cargo cult of self-modifying AI? I don't think they would be happy at all.

BYOND Key: L0rd_English Game ID: bX5-bHrj, discord saidPlayer Byond Key: crabsageStaff involved: -----not sure thinking AFK admins were here counts as involvement-----Reason for complaint: Sophie Summers went to extents to ignore pain and fear no death. Wizard held them in neckhold - laugh about their attire. Wizard starts beating them - Sophie Summers says, "You think I care? I've nearly died enough to not fear death". Starts killing them for kind of messing up a chance at taking a hostage - call them a bitch. Of what I have seen later, they did not use punctuation at all, ignored their job, exclussively validhunted wizard (after being healed) and swore. Maybe I am biased because their bottle throw (this is how fight with wizard started, out of blue from their side, I think, I didn't see how much of it happened) gave me internal bleeding and it killed me in the end, hence I ask, but I am sure that wasn't how it's supposed to be. Oh, and "forgetting to do their job" extends to forgetting to put their medic comrade on shuttle into Cryochamber, so said medic DAUnHolyKnight died. Ask them about their experience wth Sophie, maybe? Should help. Did you attempt to adminhelp the issue at the time? If so, what was the known action taken by administration/moderation? I did ahelp, but got no answer because Garnacious and other admins who were supposingly online were in fact AKF and disappeared when new round start. Next round I ahelped for ckey, they said it would be added later.Approximate Date/Time: 14:30-15:00, GMT+3, 30.12.18

Can the ling off rotation, testmerge ling back when https://github.com/Aurorastation/Aurora.3/pull/5213 and such PR's are (if) finished, untill gamemode starts looking good?

Why not make slime status be curable/timed instead, then? If xenobiologists randomly mutate people into slimes - bwoink them same as for randomly bombing people out of existance. Would you nerf maxcups for deleting people? If xenobotany has this chemical in too many plants - add more chemicals to lower changes/lower it's probability/make botanists use safety meassures. If thorny lv7 vines might make you into a slime... there was exactly 1 such thing seen in server existing, admin said. Too rare to cause trouble.
