A small teaser for y'alls viewing pleasure. Upper medical staff wing A slice of atmospherics Cargo walkway overlooking the warehouse

I've got something in the works that will address this as a side effect. I'll keep the pixel hunting specifically in mind.

Removed the problematic carp spawnpoint in this pr. https://github.com/Aurorastation/Aurora.3/pull/10854

Implements this here: https://github.com/Aurorastation/Aurora.3/pull/10842

Happy_Fox is an absolute pleasure to interact and work with, both icly and oocly, and I would trust seeing them in any staff position.

I feel the color tweaks were good to bring them in line with similar devices and not stick out so much. Though perhaps the on-mob sprites could do with some tweaking to stick out less.

The coalition gearcrates specifically include gauss rifles, and random weapons, both bought by antags and included at the raider spawn have a chance to drop a blaster. Any argument using what things are like trends in the modern day are irrelevant and not something we should tie ourselves to. And not the kind of philosophy we should use when explaining or expecting how things look in the current point of our timeline. The wood, what you see as a point of luxury, can as easily be explained away by saying perhaps that it's a wood looking furnishing used to once upon a time upsell an otherwise undesireable product, or perhaps these weapons were put together somewhere where timber is plentiful. That's all I'll say on the matter, I'm not interested in these kinds of arguments or back and forths.

While the smg and assault rifle icon changes are nice, I heavily disagree with the change of the blasters and gauss rifle sprites. The change to an ugly blue furnishing will blend in with the armor of the tcfl and be a general downgrade on its own. All in the name of making designs 'futuristic' by removing flavor. As one of the only factions that uses wood furnishings for their guns, it adds to their uniqueness and it fits with the theme of being a low budget type militia using outdated weaponry in the first place. Plus, they're not the only users of blasters and gauss weaponry, as they also appear in the hands of raiders, traitors and the coalition for example. Where that outdated, low-budget theming still fits, where the blue polymer would not. As for the other changes introduced in this pr, I'm neutral at this moment.

Briefcases are something that can be crafted with leather, so talk to your local hydroponicist if some new ones need to be produced.

Excellent work, seeing these imagined spaces that I've worked on from another perspective is really exciting.
