  1. No they're not. And they're not supposed to be earth doggos. Also, not sure why you think the diet mechanics are not on? As far as I am aware there has never been a PR to remove/disable them. You can still eat things that are not within your diet, you just dont gain nutrition from it.

    Can Tea swim? Not well...but she does float. Apparently some caterpillars can swim. Who knew. Spesscarp plushies are good.

    Cargo.

    I used to play a sassy witch-hat wearing cargo vox. It was pretty much my main thing for a long time. While you may not be able to force other people to play the way you want you can change how you play. There are a few things you as a cargo tech/quartermaster can do to make your job more interesting and more enjoyable/streamlined. The Filing Cabinet is your friend: Create folders for each department and store them in the filing cabinet. (store approved orders in the folder of the department that ordered them) Create one folder for declined requests and throw all the declined ones in it. You have a warehouse. Use it.: Keep emergency supplies and commonly requested supplies on hand in the warehouse. It'll cut down on wait times if you have the points to spare on stocking it. Restock Tool Storages/Vending Machines: Your job is to keep the station well-supplied after all. Pay attention to comms aka Be Proactive instead of Reactive: You don't have to wait for someone to order something. If you hear there's vamps maybe order some extra bloodbags for medical. If there's a lot of injury and not many medical staff then more first aid kits are probably a good idea. Take initiative and order things before everything is exploding. You can also periodically contact the heads of departments and ask if they require any crates. Often some departments are too busy to come order things but they may be short of supplies. Initiate the contact with departments. :p

    Honestly this probably will just make officers ignore prisoners even more than already happens since then they don't have to be responsible for the people they've arrested. It just feels like it would encourage officers to neglect/ignore prisoners because "the cells will let them out automatically anyways"
  6. People who know literally every antag power/item/etc and use that knowledge to basically ruin a round as quickly as possible. The same people who then whine that the round is boring and the crew is greytiding because they are so bored since antags got destroyed asap. People who abuse antag item knowledge but then pretend like they don't know those same traitor items can be found in maint, on the asteroid, in the gateway etc. How much of the crew consists of vigilantes who screech about anything and everything. Crew who blindly trust command/sec/the ai/borgs because " x cant be an antag, lol" Officers who assume the first one to scream over comms/report something is the victim. Officers taking one persons word as evidence even when conflicting actual evidence is apparent. Officers who forget that tresspassing doesn't apply if the person was let in or given access. (example: Bob is let into science by Science Nerd George who has access. Science Nerd Urist doesnt like it and calls sec and sec arrests Bob despite him doing nothing wrong and George verifying this) Players who do these sorts of things: "Bob is a vampire he glared at me! Only vamps can glare!" "I HEAR LIGHTS SMASHING IN MAINT, SLINGS!" - random doctor. "Bob murdered me in maintenance with an esword, he had an emag too, he was wearing black, his favorite color is purple and he likes long walks on the beach" - some person right after being cloned
  7. Civilian slots should always be an option. Why? Because otherwise people are going to take up job slots that they have no intention of doing and leave those jobs unfilled. People in general seem to be really displeased with the number of players who do not do the jobs they sign up for. From what I understand about the current system is that civilians scale with the number of security officers. I feel that should be reversed. Civilian should always be an option so players are not forced to sit at the lobby screen and wait for the HoP to remember to open more job slots or for crew to remember to put SSD in cryo so new players can join. As far as I know getting a demotion/job change to civilian does not open up the job slot for others automatically. At peak population it is very possible for new players to not be able to join at all shortly into the round so having Civilian always be an option will allow those new players to join and visit the HoP for a job change or just hang out if that is what they're keen on doing. Obviously a huge wave of civilians poses its own problems which is why I'd suggest having Security and Medical scale up with the number of civilians. Automatically have more security officer and medical doctor positions open. Tl;DR - Civilian should always be an option so players can actually play the game and not take up jobs they have no intention of doing.

  13. You already can give Runtime/Any Pet who can wear a collar access of any type if you put and ID with whatever access you want them to have into a collar and then on the pet. Having a collar on will also give an alert when they have been vandalized/killed. The problem with doing hats for pets is you'd need to re-position/edit hats for each pet and you'd need sprites for their normal sprite, sitting and dead sprite. I'm not sure if there's a better way to do it (Can you reposition sprites via code?) but I could re-position some sprites if someone was willing to code it. If someone is willing to code it then it'd probably be nice to have a list of hats that people would be most interested in having.
  14. Contraband is so frustrating since quite a lot of it can be found in maintenance and while I've had plenty of security officers choose to not restrict their meta-knowledge of every single syndicate related weapon/its tells/how it is used and all that they seem strangely willing to pretend they have no idea that those things can be found in maintenance and thus I've been brigged/perma'd for turning in contraband before. A lot of contraband is harmless and honestly shouldn't be a problem so long as it isn't being used for committing a crime. Even stranger is the fact that some contraband items pale in comparison to things you can legally obtain around the station. Thermal Imaging Glasses are contraband yet having xray via genetics/implants is fine. Voice Changer is contraband yet Tcomm scripts ruin and invalidate it on its own. Military Belt is just a belt, if there are dangerous contents then THOSE should be the things you worry about. Chameleon Stamp - cool you can imitate any stamp but if whatever is stamped sounds too good to be true it doesn't take long to verify or require a signature as well. Chameleon Jumpsuit - you can copy clothes but nothing else. Unless you're reaaaaally lucky or have other items too you're gonna get caught.

  16. People should be able to give out karma for any reason they want. They should not be punished for not giving out karma or forced to do so if they feel that no one in the round really did anything worthy of their karma. I also disagree with karma prices being reduced, if anything some karma prices should be increased since the server is far more populated and it is much much easier to get karma now with such a high population than it was when the karma shop was implemented and paradise was still a tiny community. There isn't a problem with the karma system, there is a problem with people's playstyles. Karma isn't about playing only antags and being robust, it isn't about only giving karma to friends, it also isn't about playing certain jobs. Karma in general is rewarded for adopting a certain playstyle. If the only thing you're concerned about as a player is getting karma you likely are not playing in a way that will get a lot of it. If your focus is karma then your focus is probably on yourself and your personal enjoyment of the round and that is not what gets you karma. Karma is a currency that other players reward individuals who make their experience more enjoyable so you need to stop and think about how your actions will impact other people. It's also worth noting that even if you do adopt a playstyle where you actually interact with people and make their rounds enjoyable that there is still no guarantee you'll get karma. Each person only gets ONE to give out a round and the server is highly populated so you're competing with everyone else on the server and you probably wont be able to interact with literally everyone. Stop focusing on karma. Focus on having fun and going out of your way to help other people and make sure they have fun too. A small list of things I recently have given people karma for: Security officers who actually did proper arrests, spoke to people and listened to their side and tried to figure out what actually happened in a situation. People who see someone laying somewhere and take the time to check on them and help them to medbay instead of ignoring them. Antags that actually roleplay with their victims and make their deaths enjoyable instead of a silent execution. Crew who step in to do a job that NEEDS to be done that everyone else is neglecting to do.(example: mining isn't mining and research is halted, switching to miner and rushing to help) People who go out of their way to help new players ICly and answer their questions and let them learn instead of just taking over their job for them and insulting them. Helpful pAIs. Antags who give people the opportunity/option to leave before just murdering them. Crew who take that opportunity to leave and don't squeal instantly about the antag or come back to murder them. Crew in general that dont just scream about who/what killed them or about the round type when it's only a little ways into the round. Don't focus on getting karma and get obsessive about checking it. Ignore karma and enjoy the game since that's what it is supposed to be about anyways. You'll get there eventually.
