  1. i'm not entirely convinced about this one yet so im opening it for discourse and maybe with multiple heads put together we can refine it or w/e anyway, here goes. antagging on expeditions kinda suck, especially if a ling pops adrenalin sacs and starts armblading you on the intrepid. it feels cheap, and you can't really run away? i understand that you as a player take this risk by inviting someone on a non-extended round, but personally i feel the roleplay you can achieve from a canon expedition is far greater than what an antag can reasonably cook up at the snap of their fingers but that isn't to say that ALL antagging on expeditions suck, there are times where i've been hunted on a planet predator style and it was AWESOME. so my suggestion is that it'll made policy that antags have to ahelp to do antag stuff off the ship, and have a member of staff vet that it's a good call or not obviously there are edge cases, like an antag starting a gimmick and characters running onto the shuttle and blasting off like team rocket, but this would by common sense be a valid play by the antag, it wasn't their fault it was taken off the ship

  3. i think the weather station idea fucks and it shouldn't be RP only. i think gathering data on a planet should give a research chip (which is basically fluff for the deconstructor) as well as a monetary payout for the science department, sort of like the orion express PR i made earlier but with weather stations instead of package delivery edit: i just realized this is a policy suggestion not a suggestion suggestion WOOPS but yes i think scientists should be allowed to fly the intrepid too, there should just be an expansion of policy to say "god please wait for the xenoarch to get on before you blast off"
  4. hey you

  5. tbh i'm of the opinion that admins should be able to make minor alterations to the round at-will regardless. if we trust them enough to give them the redname we should trust them to make for some interesting scenarios as well though more related to this topic specifically, it would be nice if we tweaked how antags are allowed to mess with expeditions and people on shuttles, because i've seen a few times where a ling accepts going onto a shuttle just for a cheap and easy frag, which imo is way less entertaining than actually completing the journey something along the lines of "sure, you can go hostile and hunt us like in Predator once we reach the site, but don't just cheap kill us while we're enroute or haven't even gotten there yet". idk, food for thought
    holy shit yes this was great please do more of these type of events. i think like one a month, or once every two months, would be AMAZING ty event hosters and mappers for making and hosting this
  6. hi, someone that upvoted posts here i agree with returning the glubbs i think the decision should be looked at again (which is what this thread is doing) (and the decision should be respected) and i dont think engineering necessarily has to be balanced anything else is silly shitflinging and you're all dorks who play the same roleplaying game together, it aint life or death, peace and love, xoxo
  7. personally i dont rly care about antags, i just think being forced to stare at numbers is pretty sucky. remove the sensor program and you remove the need to be glued to it. feel free to ping or DM me on discord to discuss my PR
  8. operations can have the tamed(?) reaver now that i think about it it'd be funnier if they just kept a hostile reaver in a box
  9. Ckey/BYOND Username: Geeves Discord Name: geeves Position Being Applied For: Coder Past Experiences/Knowledge: i've made a few PRs here and there Examples of Past Work: Additional Comments: i'm not gonna go hog wild like in the past and burn myself out, nor apply for a million positions and burn myself out, nor get involved in anti-garnascus counter insurgency operations and burn myself out. i just want to chill and review PRs. i promised to be better in 2023 and i'll try and hold to that. sorry for dropping out like i did last time, i was immature and foolish.
  10. not sure about balance, in my experience mechs have always felt kinda weak, but having a gamemode entirely centered around it will bring in a lot of good feedback on how to balance it as for gimmicks, no idea, i'm not very smart, but people can make their jockey anything from hired mercs to corporate wreckingballs, up to them really
  11. i coded up a spawner that spawns in every subtype of the core components of the mecha, so if it's in the codebase it'll be in the workshop ya
