surstromming please

[scrumptiousmommy]

Good evening, fellow Aurora Station connoisseurs. I, frequently playing on my beloved Aurora Station, came to the realization that my favorite cuisine, surströmming, was unavailable to devour. I formally request the immediate implementation of this delectable Swedish fermented fish and cannot fathom any grounds for this proposal to be contested; the addition of this meal may serve an amusing dish for in-character piquancy. The pungent stench of this fine dish is unhinged which may be some cause for concern in some environments - this will consequently result in the dish being prohibited in certain areas. Crew in a certain perimeter may feel the affect of said stench, resulting in a system message along the lines of “You smell something dastardly”. To abstain the greytiding scoundrels from abusing this feature, implementing a feature which disallows opening the tin without an aluminium receptacle cutter would effectively ward off any failure roleplayers; the can opener, for example, would suffice. The inclusion of a can opener would build upon the roleplay of any crew members who may stumble upon any enclosed canned sustenance, or even a chef de cuisine who might want to further their immersive experience, by opening cans. However, you desire to implement this feature, whether it be through cargo bay as a shipment, in the kitchen pre-placed, or a received through a vending machine (exclusively the surströmming), I think the aurora station's hole of harmless/somewhat useful gimmick items will be more completed with the implementation of the surströmming- which is also, effectively, food.

Below you can find my sprites for the can, opened can, and can opener.

Surströmming would be a unique gimmick food and maybe give chefs more to do. The can opener could be used for canned foods now or if more are added +1

Sounds fun. Bonus point if we can open the cans with a screwdriver by smashing it repeatidly.

i think that idea would be fine for other canned items, but the surstromming is basically a stink bomb so I think you'd get in trouble unless u opened it in private lol



ALSO CREATED CANNED BEANS!

You see trouble when I see the perfect antag gimmick.

thats what i want, i just probably dont want people using it every round cus it can get annoying 

even trouble maker characters could do gimmick without fully getting arrested or something

This is cool! Maybe the can could be packed and imported from New Gibson?

[Sheeplets]

I support this if it emits a stink aura that gives you giant red-text messages in the chat in a 20 block radius around the can

any way that makes sense for it to be on the station 👍 ❤️

This seems like such a niche item request that it should be considered as a custom item, I believe.

A canned food that causes an area of effect redtext? It's certainly out of the ordinary.

[Marlon P.]

It's fun! We should do it for more stuff. It's very cute and harmless.

If I'm really being pedantic, it's a form of force RP.

I'm fine with the additions of cans but yes, I would rather we didn't add a haha funny meme smell effect.

i second this.

[Marlon P.]

Im fine with the force rp of being told there's something smelly near me.

Like honestly. It's fine. You'll make it through.

I desire Surströmming for my New Gibsonite character... I must have it. Personally, I don't mind having a smell text for it, but at the same time that same effect can be applied by people doing their own IC reactions instead of forcing the ol' stinker text. I love the idea. Pass the Surströmming, brother. I require a feast. +1

Oh, also, I absolutely love the sprite for it!

I dont have strong feelings either way, but the open can sprite looks weird. Looks like the lid is detached and levitating above the can. Maybe tweak it. Same for the bean sprite, but a bit less there.
