  1. So in a space station the megacorporations did not think about what would happen if the atmosphere was gone? Why would they design a model that was so incompatable with space that it cannot even wear a eva suit for the suit cooler
  2. Unless it changed, there will be one "general officer" with the old jurisdiction that deals with people who flee a department
  3. Yet their jurisdiction only resides in that department, which in cases of engineering, means you are responsible for watching over an area that is clear of life usually after the first 20 minutes. Which means that the officer cannot do anything for the rest of the round (no, the small chance of antags messing with engine is not sufficent reason to be in engineering for over 2 hrs). So basically all this change does is make security officer extremly boring depending on the department you were assigned to.
  4. 1. Ghost, in order to get revenge for getting killed, will 9/10 times reveal the killer and therfore force the antag to go loud. There is no solution to this imo, as it makes sense for the ghost to reveal it and if they don't it could be considered unrealistic. 2. People only have one way to deal with this: panic rp. If no priest you are screwed and have this ghost forcing everyone to fear rp. Overall weary about this idea, but will wait for more feedback before I make my decision.
  5. I feel that this feature is big enough that a straight port may not be the best choice, perhaps a similar toolset and different sprites?
  6. A better solution is simply have visitor be selectable for the different factions Sechud icon is a pretty minor reason to have an entirely separate job I still fail to see why a seperate job is needed instead of keeping the alt-title.
  7. Construction has more materials to choose from with a much larger material capacity, engineering has more tools iirc. I recommend proposing the tools a merged module would have, so we can all agree on one.
  8. They are seperate, and I feel that they dont have non-nt faction visitors is due to how companies don't contract visitors to come to a station. Also why should we give it a seperate job if there are no problems with it being an alt title.
  9. First of all the PR they are referencing is this: https://github.com/Aurorastation/Aurora.3/pull/7199, they posted the wrong one. Only two problems I have with this is how airlocks cannot be remotely electrified, perhaps have a six second cooldown followed by announcment? 2nd problem is the airlock announcement, perhaps have it so turning off bolt lights turns off the announcement as well?
  10. I remember my first time getting emagged as a drone, the person ordered me to fuck with tcoms, I do that for a bit, then I hear the radio that the traitor (the guy who hacked me) was arrested, so I ran over to brig and went to him. His face lights up and yells for me to get him out of there, I quickly oblige and help fend off the warden from stopping us (this is back when drones had a plasma cutter). Later on, the traitor gets cornered and dies to a officer and HoS, so I decide to avenge my masters death by killing them both. So I decided to make it my mission to try to have someone clone my master, but what I wasnt aware of is that drones talking cannot be understood by mere mortals, so here I am cornering a nurse trying to have them take the body, and at that time I learned that you cant use a aim with weapon modules, and end up shooting the nurse. I was prepared to chase after them when I notice that the officer who killed my master was cloned and he was being brought to cryo cell when the doctor sees me. The doctor does the sensible thing and leaves the officer and runs, and I finish the officer off again (when he saw me the officer was like "No! Not again!" while the doctor ran off). By now I release that I am dangerously low on power, so I try to run over to robotics, but everything was locked down by now and I end up running out of power. In Dchat, the traitor was praising me for being "the best emagged synthetic I ever had" and in ooc EOR people were talking about "The Maint drone from hell" who killed security and shot up medbay. That was the beginning of the period where I mained maint drones.
  11. The yield declaration focuses on materials psot smelt, and considering the configurability of the smelter, it would be best for any system to automate yield declarations be attached to what enters the stacker. I am no coder so correct me if I am wrong, but I suppose the best way to do this is have the code track what enters the stacker, and when after some spagettti have it print out a completed form with the materials and then wipe the "memory" of what was listed in the yield report.
  12. ? Any change to command, cargo, security, etc? With the colors toned down they may stick out like a sore thumb
  13. If I may, perhaps have the AI have an automated whitelist process? Like you fill out a questionnaire on WI and some multiple choice, synth lore dev looks at it, and either approves or denies you.
  14. Perhaps an alternative is that cameras are "late", as in you see delayed feedback of what the camera sees. This allows for someone to quickly take out cameras via a weapon, and will make it harder for AI to trap someone.
  15. This argument is fruitless, here is a list off the top of my head of similar mechanics, in which we should also remove if we subscribe to this line of reasoning Why set up SM every round Why set up main smes every round Why is fridge emptied every shift? We can freeze humans indefinitely but not food? Just store a large amount of food instead of redoing it Same as above but for drinks Why not just keep warehouse empty and have the stuff just be in departments? Do they palce them back every shift? Why do people leave things in a research station in maint? Most cant even access it let alone drop their stuff there, how unrealistic smh Why do miners lose all their gear every shift? Let them keep it Why lose the artifacts? Why lose the drills? etc As you can see, this argument just doesn't stand for something that is ultimately a game.
  16. Aw shit here we go again Massive -1 even before I start listing my reasons as I feel that major changes like this must have some sort of survey (the server survey?) or similar method to ensure that the community at large actually wants this instead of a vocal minority. Reasons this is a bad idea Including a postibrain, this allows for 4 borgs roundstart, which can effectively run a station themselves. You can still build a AI, so why wouldnt you? Should also remove malf if doing this, as malf would be unplayable otherwise due to above reasons Doesnt have a plan for what AI chamber will be replaced by, so its just a hole collecting dust. All you hear is the same 5-6 people saying how AI is bad because cameras, despite the numerous ways to counter this both stealthy and loudly Bad AI play can and has been dealt with by staff, what has changed between the other 5 attempts to remove/whitelist AI and now Overall I feel that this idea is just another in a series of suggestions trying to remove the AI, and people should look at said threads as reasons why AI should stay.
  17. I feel this suggestion should have just been in green boi's topic, as this is just a small alternative to the idea presented in green bois. I feel that this is a nonissue for the following reasons. 1. There are many guides on this forum to help experienced people do RnD faster 2. If we make everything defaulted to level 3 we might as well just make it the new level one 3. For people new to RnD, it is interesting starting at the beginning for the first time and trying to advance the tech tree.
  18. I remember when the warehoue conveyor was added, someone fired a laser rifle and it went on the conveyor belt. The server REALLY didnt like that and grinded to a halt. I believe it took around 30 mins before they discovered what was causing the lag.
  19. -10 respect. Honestly I don't see the problem with down-scaling pictures for posters, as long as it is executed right. I saya combination of down-scaling and original posters would be best.
  20. IMO the blue would fit more for research, I feel having distinct colors for each dept. would be better. I really like the blue design, but for aesthetic reasons I feel Green would fit best for medical.
  21. I feel we should have a mix, I am fine with them some being the clearest to look at because seeing images that you see in news articles and other things is rather interesting.
  22. No clue, its been almost a year IIRC since I last did it, so things changed, I dont do it anymore since I am focused on the mech thing.
  23. Unlike a scientist, a roboticist completely depends on other roles to be able to do their job, even in the case of RnD, as RnD can get almost max tech without any outside assistance. How do you feel about the idea of permitting Robotics to operate proto and auto lathes, but no research?
  24. ? The title says remove all the postersand replace them with stuff like this. I feel we should keep some however.
