trick of the trade

@kryostro , why won't it work for aurora? @desven , art would be cool, I hope that will be seriosly considered if item persistence is not something thats needed right now.

I would enjoy if the world in aurora would have some minor world building persistence between each round, a misplaced tool here, a shotgun shell there that sort of stuff done by players. I know coding is hard and I am no position to ask grand changes like the world littrly retains the map between each round, not to mention how impossible it is in a multiplayer setting, but a few tiny things might be nice. I made D&D campaings where time and movement doesnt stop or reset, every action is permenment and changes the world in some way and for me a roleplay game that doesnt have it lets me feel it lacks something, I might be the only one like this, please say your opinion aswell. Have a fun time, Trick.

How do I mark this as answered?

Oh, alright then. I will come to discord everyonce in awhile.

Even though I got bored and left ss13 I check the forum from time to time because I like Aurora and the people here. But there's rarely new topics, am I missing a refresh button?

Nice @ThelonTV

Type (e.g. Planet, Faction, System):super matter creation and the Consequences with it. Describe this proposal in a single sentence (12 word maximum): exapnsion of super matter creation as man made material. How will this be reflected on-station? characters can have history or part in Manufacturing process of SM or can have dislike or hate towards SM and the consequences surrounding it's manufacturing. Corprote assets can include SM Specialized machinery and yield of SM. More option for player characters to detest mega corporations practices and alot of Opportunity for more backstory history. Does this faction/etc do anything not achieved by what already exists? SM lore is very bare bones, while being personally intersted in reading about SM and asking around I found most SM lore to be undisclosed and open for opportunity. Why should this be given to lore developers rather than remain player created lore? Lore of this size can't be taken as a random player lore, giving at least a base will give players somewhere to build from. Do you understand that if this is submitted, you are signing it away to the lore team, and that it's possible that it will change over time in ways that you may not forsee? Yep and I incourge the lore team to change it as they see fit, I am still a novice in all of this. Long Description: SM is man made (or alien made), singulirty equipment is used to create a temporary black hole and then tons of raw phoron is thrown into the blackhole in a controlled enviroment, the black hole is forced to collapse leaving behind fresh SM in a field that doesn't allow it to blow up on creation. Singulirty technology already exist, making the lore expo easy to add in. SM powers entire city's, evatully the SM will become exhausted or too weak to power in Satisfactory energy, new ones need to be made and who is better to do that other then good ol nanotrason. The problems though with such dangeroues manfuctring is that many errors could occour while SM is created, a rouge black hole that refuses to collapse can escape and take over the center of a planet or astroid and slowly eat it from the inside, a weak field that supposed to contain the fresh SM fails and the new SM 10 times the strength of an old core can blowup and make a major disaster. But so far it has not happened and just speculation of what kind of disaster can occour. Because of such danger right on planets with civllaztions many dislike the manfuctring of SM and there's constantly public demend to create SM on far, dead planets rather then on their door step.

@bear indeed.

Hello, there might be some people that remember me and i hope they do! I played alot of ss13 Aurora as Niki sanem then left for a few months for life reasons and now got a bad case of cringeraties. I'm hoping sharing stupid edgy cringy roleplay that I did will ease my pain and make a few people laugh and cure me from my cringeraties, hopefully also get me back playing ss13. For starters, I love this community! As a D&D player and DM I got hooked on ss13 and in turn on Aurora, it came to the point I spent every spare time on the game, I might of come off annoying or aggressive at times but I must assure all of you, I don't hate or dislike anybody and with each bad moment there was awesome moments. With that out of the way, let's get started. So, you know the job requirements age with each character right? 25 years old except interns, apprentices et cetra. I made my character 23 years old as an engineering apprentice, became proficient with all engineering utilitys, and was asking constantly for a promotion. A good engineering buddy named "standing in the rain" (if I remember correctly) said to just change my age to 25 and I'm good to go, in my stubborn nature I refused with an edgy excuse of; get this- "my character is a genius and she should be higher rank for roleplay" Later I figured how non roleplay it is where even if someone is a genius, he can't be a doctor after 2 years of med school. My character back story was not much better, I thought the whole mental illness thing that my friends do in D&D is pretty cool to work with as a DM, failing to understand how not cool it is IRL. My character was basically a complete clyeptomanic, a sorry excuse to self antag, and when I got actually confronted with real well made roleplay for my characters condition I failed to make good roleplay with that condition. Later I figured out that company's dont employ thieves, possible thieves, in a place with sensitive information or valuable products, it was naive of me to think that's going to fly ><. Last but not least, my character was a secret ex space pirate, a whole pirate life of plundering! Cramped inside a life of going to engineering school. And being an engineer on the pirate vessal of course ><. Thank you for reading my cringy roleplay history, I hope it made laugh! And tell me how you feel about this, if you want tell your cringy story's! With love - trick of the trades

Poison can be good too and instead of applying through a syringe( which doesn't make much sense to me) how about putting it in a rag and wiping the blade( assassin's coated blades like that in the rennasins era) with a chance to either cut yourself or what crystal said,having it have a lesser impact. But I still stand with my origeonal suggestion, poop knifes is extreamly deadly to the ignorent and poor, its the most easy thing to aquire then some high tech deadly poison. A dev should really consider this and not brush it please( I was surprised this topic is still open when I was about to make it again with a few more added details)

i am being completly serioues about the suggestion, in vitenam people used to coat punji sticks with cow,wild animals, and even human feces, and sometimes poison. heres a link to the wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punji_stick

the minor bioweapon is the same idea of vitnam punji sticks, coat sharp objects(knifes, butterfly knifes, cleavers, spears) with poop from the toilets. when the weapon is used against a living blood typed creature it increases the chance of infection and a very fast rapid proggresion of the infection, deadly if left untreated. the mechnical aspect : coating the object: take sharp object and click on the toilet, the object loses its coat after 20 minutes or 3 stabs the intrudction of the disease to the body: per skin broken a 40%-60% chance the body part infected( please note the chance might not be blanced) the more skin been broken the more there is chance for infection creatures able to be infected: warm blooded creatures like : tajara,human,vox. infection: use the infection system(found it on the wiki) with an added speed boost to the infection proggresion (getting gangrene on the 45 minute mark or less) treatment: treated as reguler infection why should this weapon be added: first of all, it is not normal for people to suddnly coat knifes in toilets and would be extreamly suspcioues, it is although a great assassination tool for antags if there are no medical personal or the person being assassinated cannot seek medical help from anyone, the target dies even if the antag dies, also it could make a revolution get an upper hand against an already powerful scecuity.

I request for this topic to be closed and archived,I'm not exprinced enough to write a full backstory. Also I request a lore dev or alb to help me again when I'm not stressed on vaction(alb you helped me pretty well I just picked the wrong time to request help) Cheers : ),
