Saudus Posted August 24, 2017 Posted August 24, 2017 (edited) BYOND Key: Saudus Character name: Leland Field Item name(s): Sol Central Government Foreign Relations Department Stamp and Badge Why is your character carrying said item(s) to work?: The items are crucial to Leland Field's work as they prove his status as a Diplomatic Observer. Without them he would probably end up getting arrested for espionage. Item function(s): A badge showing Field to be a member of the Sol Gov FRD and a stamp for the paperwork he will be churning through. Item description: Badge: A badge bearing the emblem of the Sol Government Foreign Relations Department. It has an inscription reading "Leland Field, Diplomatic Observer". Stamp: A stamp with the emblem of the Sol Government Foreign Relations Department and the text "Diplomatic Observer". Inscribed "L. Field" on the handle. Item appearance: See below in the comments (the 7th) for the awesome sprites made (not by me). How will you use this to better interact with crew and/or stimulate RP? I love when players don't just bring their character to life on the Aurora, but also the world and the lore. Last night (24th 1AM CET+1 time ca) some mercenaries RPd as Sol Navy Marines from the 33rd fleet and it made the round unique. People learned more about the lore and people got to explore their characters in a new setting (the quartermaster screaming over comms in sol basic about how they had shut down his cargo and mining department was awesome). I would like to be a part of that kind if RP and have found a way in which I could do it, and his name is Leland Field. I have already tried it out a bit twice but without some item legitimizing you it's a bit weird (and got me arrested for espionage once). Additional comments:This whole idea came as a result of me churning through the lore and getting this idea. I then brought it up on the lore questions sub-forum (https://forums.aurorastation.org/viewtopic.php?f=73&t=8796) and got the situation clarified thanks to Senpai Jackboot.

Butterrobber202 Posted August 24, 2017 Posted August 24, 2017 would make pretty cool RP between die hard Bisel and Sol peeps.
Saudus Posted August 26, 2017 Author Posted August 26, 2017 So... out of curiosity... how long does it usually take to get a response to one of these applications? Not trying to rush it through or anything, just curious.
Fire and Glory Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 5 days to half a year at most so far, the one processing things is sort of random. If you actually want your item I suggest going on the discord and pinging TishinaSenpai about there being unprocessed custom items every few days, it actually speed things along to sane processing times.
Skull132 Posted August 27, 2017 Posted August 27, 2017 Cyclically whenever enough of them pile up. Also, pretty sure SCG is a Bay-ism. SolGov, for Sol Government, is what we use.
Saudus Posted August 27, 2017 Author Posted August 27, 2017 True, read it on the wiki somewhere and it's gotten stuck in my head. Keep calling it SCG for some reason.
Saudus Posted August 28, 2017 Author Posted August 28, 2017 I just noticed a PM I got on the forums. I think it explains itself best if I just print it in. Eyo. I randomly go over custom items apps and sprite those I think I can sprite. And I made yours. The stamp is blue with leather hold. The stamp mark is in crude shape of SolGov symbol, or at least I hope. Didn't find it anywhere, so I took the one baystation has. The second gray stamp mark is for documents with stamps that were copied in photocopier. Then there is the badge. It is V shaped thus you can flip it. Should look like this: The front side holds silver badge with golden SolGov symbol and has some text inscribed on it, whatever you want that to be. If you flip the front side, there is your info + photo on card inside. I imagined that is how proper badge would look like. Also, I could make the photo look like your characters face, instead of dark silouette. But you would need to show me picture of your character or describe him. I have no idea about his looks at the moment. There are also blank templates for the badge wallet in the folder, those are not suppposted to be used. They are as spriting presets only. You don't need to accept these sprites, I do spriting for fun. But if you like them, feel free to use them. Also feel free to ask me for any changes, in case you don't like something. Or feel free to make these changes yourself. These wallet templates in there might be useful then. Also, if you have discord, contact me using that one. It is was more comfortable than using forums. TheGreatJorge#4909 with orange eye picture. Should be me. And here are some pictures: And finally here you can download the dmi itself from my dropbox repository: https://www.dropbox.com/s/um6q72y82fcgz9m/sol_gov_custom_stuff.dmi?dl=0 -TGJ Holy shit those are just awesome, thank you so much TheGreatJorge. Now, I don't really know how this works but I assume it has to be added in on the server end, not by me in some way? If I'm wrong, please let me know.
TishinaStalker Posted September 16, 2017 Posted September 16, 2017 I like this, this is actually pretty good and super cool. Application def accepted.
Alberyk Posted September 17, 2017 Posted September 17, 2017 Items done and added to the code, you should be able to spawn with it now.
