How about no. This would give the Assistant more access than some of medical who would actually need it. If an assistant is properly assigned to assist they can either be given a guest pass by the department or a proper upgrade from the HoP.

I will refrain from saying what I think about this, except that this is unnessecary. But no one will care, no matter how many people will argue against this PR and it will be implented anyway, so whatever.

No idea why there are two threads now, I think I commented in the wrong one. First of all, utilizing the construction level, the absolute madlad. Second, this looks good. Way better what was proposed in the other thread. I am impressed how well this even looks, with basically a glass front overlooking the reception. Super cool. I have a question, though. Will it still be able to lock down virology seperately again, as it is now, using blast doors? The lab looks considerably smaller now. How many people are intended to work in there? It might look a bit too small for two people already (if you were going for one anyway it's obviously fine). Who has access to unbolt that bolted door, leading into the construction level? Is there a button to unbolt it, if so, who can do it?

I recommend not cutting down the ICU like this, it renders it pretty much useless to the point it can be removed entirely. I won't lie, the ICU cryo tube and sleeper are never used, but you need at least a little space where you can stuff patients, for example awaiting surgery, to hook them up to an IV so they don't fucking die, while you perform surgery in lightning speed. If you have to, utilize the (also never used) space of the two examination rooms. You can cut down one of them, maybe, without needing to remove the back door leading out of the department. All in all, I agree with ferner here. This looks currently not so good, too small and underwhelming. What happens to the, now unused, space in the sublevel? Will it just be removed? Also, Bio-Physician still makes absolutely no sense as a name, just throwing this in here.

I talked about this with some others some time ago and I will leave this here: Excerpt from the Mass Effect 2/3 Wiki: [...] as such, detachable heat sinks, known as thermal clips, were adopted [...] by (organic) arms manufacturers. Ammunition may never be a concern with modern (non-ballistc) arms, but the availability of thermal clips is; weapons without thermal clips have nowhere to disperse their heat and are incapable of firing [...]. So yes, please rethink how laser-based weaponry works. It's a bit stupid. Please, please, please. +100

One can assume that when Muhawir's clothes were changed to the suit he was cremated in, his pockets were emptied.

If you all would know where he got his character concept got from....... +1, I hope you also make a DLC character.

You've shown it to me before, I still say it's pretty cool. +1

Reporting Personnel: Quik'Kin Zish Job Title of Reporting Personnel: Captain Game ID: bYX-dacM Personnel Involved: - Agramakova Antonov, Head of Personnel, offender - Anya Orlova, Chef, witness - Keymaster, Station Intelligence, witness - Khajida Ah'yalna ,Security officer, witness - Paul Grunnus, witness (presumably) - Manfred Hayden, Chief Engineer, other - Multiple other crewmembers Time of Incident: - Real Time: ~23:30 EST, 23rd of February 2019 Location of Incident: NSS Aurora, Bar/Kitchen Nature of Incident: [ X ] - Workplace Hazard [ ] - Accident/Injury [ ] - Destruction of Property [ ] - Neglect of Duty [ ] - Harassment [ ] - Assault [ X ] - Misconduct [ ] - Other _____ (Place an x in the box that applies. If other, replace line and specify.) Overview of the Incident: Prior to my arrival, both Head of Personnel Agramakova Antonov and Chief Engineer Manfred Hayden have decided, that an unannounced fire drill would be the best way to train the crew's awareness and response time, regarding fire hazards. The drill was supposed to go like this: A fuel spill would be placed inside the kitchen area and the fire alarm was being pulled. Then it would be observed how crew responded to this problem, while stopping the time and observing their behaviour. Problematic was, that the present officers of the ISD, since being uninformed about the drill, suspected malicious intent and intervened with the drill. This caused chaos and general confusion during the drill. Both Heads of Staff agreed to this drill, yet Agramakova Anotonov decided to head to cryogenic storage at the start of said drill. The incident was reported to me, by multiple crewmembers and the station intelligence, due to it's hazardous nature, like the deep fryers, ovens, other kitchen utensils and the general disregard of the "No Smoking" signs in this part of the station. The Chief Engineer was questioned and charged during the shift. This Incident Report is not directed against them. In a personal talk he explained to me in great detail the intention behind this drill and the charge he recieved during the shift was deemed enough punishment by me. He is merely included in here since he might be able to gain more insight from the Head of Personnel's Antonov point of view, since the drill was being held in the civilian part of the station and they "escaped" proper questioning and punishment, unlike the Chief Engineer. Did you report it to a Head of Department or IAA? If so, who?: n/a Actions taken: The Head of Personnel Antonov was already stored in cryogenic storage, when this incident was reported to me. Incident was resolved with Chief Engineer Hayden, no further charges are to be pressed. Additional Notes: No actual fire has broken out during the drill whatsoever.

"This is NTEB, the NanoTrasen Entertainment Broadcast, on the short-range frequency 149.8. We are broadcasting today's holodeck event. My name is James and I'm here with my co-host Quiib. We are both excited to provide some commentary, right from the first row, to all of you who can't attend in person. But without further ado, let's jump right into it.

There is one in the study room, down the hallway, south of Xenobiology.

Okay. Next suggestion, this is for people like @VTCobaltblood. Some kind of trolley or hand wagon to put anomalies on. It is extremely silly to just drag them behind you without a care in the world, for example when you have to move through public hallways. Do you think something could be done?

Thank you ❤️

I have just joined the round this PR was pulled. First of all, I can't see any major flaw and it looks really, really good. Again, thank you for this redesign. I have only one, very, very little thing I want to ask for. Please, don't ask why, but please rename the both first airlocks into the Xenoarcheology department into "Xenoarcheology and Anomalous Materials" instead of "Xenoarcheology and Anomaly Labs". Please. Please, please, please.

Something similar has been suggested in the past: It was not very well recieved.

I do not want to critisize or attack you, but I think this may not be the best way approach to this problem, due to the state and/or status the race is in right now. Again, if you see people misbehave as a Vox, ahelp it. Not that you see that many Vox anyway. I don't know, I would suggest attacking this problem from the lore. I think that would be more helpful, than what you are suggesting. If that cannot be done, maybe just remove Vox entirely. It is not like that would be a big loss.

Hey, hey, I was present during these OOC discussions Doggie mentioned, so here are my two cents: The first one about improvements/quality of life changes about Xenoarcheology began in LOOC/OOC before the thread was posted and I agree, that it was civil. No one lashed out to someone else and in my opinion it was a good discussion. It gave me a few ideas myself. To the incident that the Anomaly Lab got (somehow, I still don't know how) flooded with Phoron and another player made fun of that in LOOC, here I can also say that it was most likely banter from the observing party and nothing beyond the "(Please) leave me alone", which is understandable if these two players do not like each other. I wouldn't really connect this as critique to the RD character itself. I have played some rounds with Doggie's RD and they are good with what they do. They know what they are doing and what they do not know they ask/learn. If there have been other incidents, regarding lashing out to other players in LOOC/OOC, I cannot comment on these.

How about some tape, to seal up the digging site? It's purely flavour, but it could work similar to engineering/security tape. Only RP, but what isnt with Xenoarcheology. I would suggest more, but I can't find the list I wrote and would wait until after the science remap to whine about more.

The medical sublevel permanent morgue already has the spooky sounds, what damage can a ghost do, ha...ha....oh god, I will never go down there again.

Like. It fits Bretscher's character, since he is a giga-robust angry nerd. It uses his background and past in a subtle way and it doesn't give him any advantage in the game whatsoever. It's a slightly different coloured toolbox. I see no reason why this should be denied, really. It may have the colours of a martian street gang but that does not make it a criminal item. So, +1, my dude. I hope you get your robusto box.

The lore itself prevents Vox to become a playable race. It is not deep enough to really build anything around them (Quote Wiki: "[...] little is known about them and most of their history is a mystery to other species."). I wouldn't support the idea to make them a regular, playable race without massive retcons and, well, someone who refines and massively expands and maintains the lore.

Kind of overdoing that, with a race that can hardly be played at all. If you see someone break the lore, ahelp it. Whitelist is a bit too much for a basically non-existent race.
