Carver Posted February 19, 2024 Posted February 19, 2024 Per the title. A big ass flag or banner on a window should block your vision. Side effects include: Passive-aggressively using your nationalism to further your anti social tendencies More people being yelled at by stern command members for putting up their flags in lobbies More thoughtful display of flags instead of just plastering them everywhere Someone trying to weaponize the store of SCC flags in the bridge and either getting banned for powergaming or flags being made shootable 5 Quote
Mr.Popper Posted February 20, 2024 Posted February 20, 2024 I like the spirit of this as an RP mechanic (for the longest time I would carefully avoid covering any windows with flags before eventually succumbing and doing it anyway) although part of me thinks it would be weird for a cotton flag to have the same impact on visibility as a solid wall. Ideally flags would only partially affect visibility but I don't know if that could be properly represented with SS13 sight mechanics. In any case, it's a cool enough catalyst for RP to look past that and I consider anything that binds gameplay closer to RP to be a net positive. Quote

In theory not really any different from a curtain, my inspiration for this was imagining using a flag as a 'privacy curtain' between the Corp Rep offices that can't be defeated by pressing a button on your desk.
