Guest Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Hi. List of stuff I think needs to be added, because it doesn't make sense for a role that forces self-sufficiency and requires zero effort to roleplay (as it is a role for people to do stuff on the server even if they don't feel like roleplaying with antags for instance, especially with their third law which bars you from communicating with the crew), to not be able to do their job and improve the station. Extend the amount of construction related items maint drones can pick up with their gripper, such as individual floor tiles, wired floor tiles, power cells, etc. Allow maintenance drones to replenish their supplies on the field at the cost of a hefty charge detriment Make resources (especially lights in the light replacer) replenish faster in the borg chargers Those are my big three, if I find other issues I'll add them to the OP.

Owen Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 All of these seem like good ideas. I have noticed those things like taking forever to do simple things because I had to replenish materials so often. But anyway, I am liking this. Link to comment

As a big advocate of Drone Rights, I had made a massive list of suggestions. Your first one was part of it. However, I think that despite my intense lobbying for the Drones and the various requests I made on them; I made people more intent on not doing anything to the Drones. Good luck, though. Also: their third law does not specifically dictate you can't interact with the crew. It merely says you cannot interfere with them. -waits for the former army of Drone Haters to come pounding down on him- Link to comment
UnknownMurder Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 When I was an Engineer last night with Oliver Stefan... Since the Maintenance Drones were actually spreading the breach. I issued the kill order on all Maintenance Drones whether part of it or not. Then I'd deactivated the fabricator. I wish they were useful in THIS way, not the repairing the hull and big engineer/atmos tech responsibilities. Link to comment
Conservatron Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 i just want to be able to emag maint drones, give them bombs, and send them places Link to comment
Vanagandr Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 When I was an Engineer last night with Oliver Stefan... Since the Maintenance Drones were actually spreading the breach. I issued the kill order on all Maintenance Drones whether part of it or not. Then I'd deactivated the fabricator. I wish they were useful in THIS way, not the repairing the hull and big engineer/atmos tech responsibilities. If it's what I think it was, one of the drones had decided to build a new room off of Xenobiology, and pried open a window to pressurise it. Another drone saw something going on in there, set the air alarm to "fill", the air alarm opened the firelocks when the pressure was safe and then all that air went rushing out again. By the time the engineers arrived, though, the second drone had fixed the window and explained the facts of life to the responsible *ping mouse. i just want to be able to emag maint drones, give them bombs, and send them places I'm not sure if magnetic grippers can hold grenades, but if they can... Alternatively, they can definitely open plasma canisters and do the various AI/borg interactions, so an emag and orders to 'go fuck up that room for me fam' should suffice. Link to comment
Conservatron Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 emag go weld a welding tank or rather, be able to emag the console and issue orders from there Link to comment
