[hello add moth girls yes]

Here are some examples of what they look like

[hello add moth girls yes]

greetings i would like to suggest that moth people would be a nice addition yes

reasons:

1. it's a moth girl dude

2. its cute

3. you can pet it

4. It would be a nice subspecies variation for kidan and could encourage more players to buy that race (which isn't currently that popular). In addition, the code is already implemented and there exists a PR which got shot down due to not gaining enough interest. However, a number of people on discord were interested after my suggestion, so I'd like to bring it up again. Please post if you support it.

5. fly around the station and shit its nice

6. fuck gravity lmao

7. it's a moth girl dude

[What constitutes powergaming? Nuke Ops edition]

Yep, going to have to agree with Birdtalon here. Why not patch it out if its an issue? Funny how Necaladun uses Overwatch as an example, because in that game the devs actually do tell people to knock it off and ban them instead of fixing or balancing their game, with some heroes having 100% pick rate. And some players getting banned for quite literally playing the game with a certain hero.

[What constitutes powergaming? Nuke Ops edition]

Recently I've had a discussion with Normalyman on discord about what I am allowed to do as captain to protect the NAD from nukies. While he did give his answer on what is allowed, I would like to hear other admins' perspectives, and some players too. If you got a hypothetical situation and you're not sure whether it's bwoinkable or not, please post it. Maybe we can amass some examples or situations that actually constitute as powergaming and stick it into the rules page, because right now there's not a single example there of what is "powergaming". If you're an admin, please comment on the stuff posted in this thread.

 

So, let's see what I have. This is regarding nukies:

1. Implanting the NAD into yourself. By this I mean going to medbay after the declaration of war and asking a surgeon to put it in you. Technically, they can still pinpoint it on you, and it's perfectly recognizable that it is INSIDE of you after they search through your stuff/strip you. Might take them a short time to get it out, nothing "detrimental" to the enjoyment of others here in my opinion. Normaly said not to do this though.

2. The cheese wheel strat. Quite literally the cheese strategy. You make like 30 cheese wheels, put em in a locker, and the NAD in one of them. Again, might take nukies a very little time to get it out. However, not too big of an obstacle considering they can get a knife and just slice all of them in a minute or less. I didn't get a defining answer on this.

3. Boobytrapped backpack. You put the NAD into your pack, along with a bomb and some mousetraps with signalers attached. Basically, if you die and the nukies open the pack, the bomb goes off and kills them. I'd say this would be powergaming, and so did our slavic friend.

4. Unpowered disposals. I saw a guy pull it off the other day, and the round went on and apparently the guy didnt get bwoinked. What happened is, they put the NAD into a bin and disconnected it from the power grid, resulting in the disk getting stuck in the bin with no way to get it out. I'd say this is worse than implanting yourself or putting the disk into cheese.

 

Regarding the general game:

I know of two punishable powergaming offenses for sure: running with a mouse in hand in maints while hunting, and baiting someone into typing to attack them while they do it.

However, what about some other stuff? Especially science. I remember a certain science player who used to deck himself with a myriad of implants, cryox/frost oil and meth pills and then go on a rampage with a dsword. It doesnt abuse any kind of game mechanic but surely is detrimental to fun when even the ERT coulldn't take them purely because of all the advantages they had.

If someone has any examples related to general game outside of nukies, please add them so we can have a discussion. I hope that in the future if this thread takes off it would be possible to link it in the rules post in the powergaming section.
