Someone give this man the harmbaton.

@Trubus Right. I might be able to relay the prompt to the lobby, but I am not sure how much tweaking that will require.

Doesn't it search for active ckeys first?
It offers it to all ghosts who have it enabled and are not banned from synthetics.

What happens right now that everyone who says "yes" gets added to a list then it selects a random person from the list. I would say adding people simply to the current list would be fair.

Quite tricky, actually.
I am wondering about picking this up, for I wanted to do this myself actually... But it sounds quite difficult.

Sir, you are under arrest for indecent exposure.

Please note that you can rejoin as a drone. Unlike regular conversion antags where after getting gibbed you are gone for good, you can just press a respawn button.

I find mechanic is good when I'm tired or just want a nice relaxing round in which I have zero responsibility and the only job I have is to build a pod, which I can do and then fuck off into space to be forgotten about. It's my favourite hang-over job!
You mean you don't steal all the bananium and build a H.O.N.K. every round? What kind of blasphemous mechanic are you?

Buy IPC if you enjoy instantly dying to EMPs.
Save up some more for Vox, so you can be shitbirds toos and get all the shinies, yaya!

Now, I am sorry. I am just the resident Grammar Nazi™! Here, take this broom.

No. >:C

Can't you just quote it to me, give me a page number or something? I can't see any appendixes.

Obviously not.

Explain please.

Did you vote for Donald Trump?

There should be specific maint areas kept and a large area added on and randomised.
That's the goal.
Welp, that's completely different from what I made. That would still be easily meta'd though if we only had that; and nerfing the meta is pretty much the purpose of this PR.
However I might add something like that to this on the long run, we will see.

We pretty much share a vision. Fake walls are already generated, but obviously cannot be seen on the pictures (Most areas that seem blocked actually have a false wall leading into them). But why would doors need access levels?
Also what premade areas? Did you check the images I posted for example? Those are completely random, not made from templates. -

How much of maintenance do you think needs to be randomised?
For example most of sci-maint. But there would be a premade route below pipes, wires, and to areas like solars.

Honestly, I never did gateway for one, second, out of scope of what I am trying to accomplish here.

Changing between several maints is sadly not a solution. On Baystation visiting away sites is a regular and organized activity, with many people moving. They have 15+ randomly selected away sites, and the thing is that all of them get regularly metad. People LEARN them. All of them. Even if they don't want to, it's not that hard.

That and how is all of the piping going to work?

We would lose the tinted windows, but not the other two. Can you please read the post the next time before you comment? EDIT: Now that I read this twice more, it came through a lot aggressive than it sounded in my head, sorry.
As a more general response to both of you:
6 hours ago, Bxil said:It can use some fine tuning [...].
Thus it is not in its final state, the amount of items should probably be lowered, or the chance of them blocking a hallway drastically lowered.
EDIT: Also please look at the current things that static maintenance cannot provide. Also remember that this is balanced, because both crew and the antagonists will have to explore it (as said, this is somewhat a buff to shadowlings). It also tweaks cult, because now they can do their stuff on the station, instead of being forced to move to off-station every damn round.

Hello, hello!
So, there is this fun thing I made. To quote the PR:
QuoteKeep in mind it does not generate any piping, wiring, [...], thus those should be pre-mapped. It can use some fine tuning [...].
I did not touch actual random loot drops! Maintenance contraband is exactly as rare as before.Pros:
- On station cults!
- Every round is a new adventure!
- Nerfs metagaming: no longer wandering in maint in the dark because you memorized every route!
Neutral:
- Easier to hide in.
- Very easy to get lost.
Cons:
- Buffs shadowlings.
- Most of the time hallways go nowhere, and can feel unnatural.
As per intention, this was not meant to replace current maintenance, but to co-exist with it. It would be pretty horrible for engineering to get lost forever while looking for the solars, yes?
Here are examples:

If someone has a code they feel like I should try, then feel free to show me.
It's not that horrible to code this in BYOND, stuff that is coded in something else here is done so because BYOND was incapable of doing what was needed. It would be very snowflakey to make a separate application for this for no real reason.
