    what if it was a rare random event? so if there was say nukeops, the devil could revive people at the cost of their souls?

    It's a side antag on tg, not the main round antag.

     

  2.  

    This is not at all what I thought you were going to suggest when I read the title.

     

    It sounds like a decent idea, but I don't really see any of those chemicals being used very often. Heart paste, for example, would literally require you to murder someone to obtain.

     

  3.  

    The ability to use "Hamon" moves, similar to Space Ninja combos, these work against antagonists such as Shadowlings or Vampires only! Not on other crew members.

    Extremely meta. What stops that person running around attempting to use it on everyone in order to find antagonists?

     

  4.  

    I actually pretty much finished porting/adapting this, IIRC. The commit should be available on my repo if anyone wants to take a look.

     

    I, er, postponed it because I never figured out what to do with the in-hand icons after that was overhauled and haven't much time to look into it since starting uni.

     

  5.  

    Would there be an issue with changing the code so that they exhale something essentially harmless (maybe co2 like humans?)

    Plasmamen already exhale CO2. It's just that not all the plasma they inhale in is actually used to breathe, so some of it remains as plasma. This is how all species work -- part of what humans exhale is still oxygen.

     

  6.  

    Also known as: greytide breaks into prison every shift.

     

     

    Also no way on the cryodorm--that's the most retarded thing ever that's just waiting for problems to happen.

    I'm not suggesting we should use this exact design, just the core concept -- perhaps that didn't come across as intended. Having only a single windoor between prisoners and freedom and a disposals bin that actually leads to disposals is insanely insecure for a brig, IMO.

     

    As for the cryopod, that's by no means an essential for a communal brig.

     

  7.  

    I've brought this up a few times in-game and the responses were largely positive, so I thought I'd make a thread here. I'd be happy to map this myself and submit a PR if there's interest in this.

     

    Baystation's brig currently looks a bit like this. Brig.png

    The cells are all connected to a communal area prisoners can enter during their sentence. The communal area has some mildly interesting activities for prisoners during their sentences, such as botany, a newscaster, library computer, socialisation, etc. Hopefully, this keeps the prisoners engaged during their sentences and makes the brig a bit less SSD/suicide inducing. The communal area also serves as a permabrig, so permabrig prisoners would no longer effectively be removed from rest of the round.

     

    One other feature of the communal brig I think is particularly useful is access to a cryostorage pod. This is great for prisoners, as they don't have to go SSD in their cells, but it also means that criminals can't intentionally go SSD upon being brigged and expect to be dragged out.

     

    I suspect a communal brig on Paradise would need to be slightly bigger. This one only supports 3 cells, whereas we currently have 9. If possible, if would be very nice to move the Brig Phys office so they have access to the communal area too.

     

  8. The best solution I can see is having them exhale back into the tank instead of the air. The problem with this, though, is that it would mean the air pressure of a tank would remain constant, and couldn't be used to gauge the amount of oxygen left.

  9.  

    If this is the case then the simplest solution I can think is have them expel oxygen as a byproduct of their plasma breathing.

    Plasmamen breathe out carbon dioxide, not plasma, IIRC. The issue is that not all the air they inhale is actually used to breathe - some remains as plasma and is exhaled as plasma. Humans work in the same way, part of what they exhale is still oxygen.

     

  10.  

    Can shoot balls of Ectoplasm with a cooldown of 5 mins weak to mid range brute damage

    Species abilities shouldn't be for combat, IMO. It encourages needless violence.

     

    maybe talk to the dead

    That's not likely to ever happen. Deadchat isn't really an IC channel at this point.

     

    can see pass a wall if right next to it

    This is actually surprisingly difficult to do in byond. You can easily change the opacity of the object, but not so that it only affects one person.

     

  11.  

    It's trivially easy to make your own forms, and there's even a wiki page you can copy+paste some common ones from. I don't really think we need pre-made ones in-game.

     

    Patient or Prisoner name: [small][field][/small][br][br]

    Age: [small][field][/small][br][br]

    Race: [small][field][/small][br][br]

    Diagnosis: [small][field][/small][br][br]

    Treatment plan: [small][field][/small][br][br]

    Notes: [small][field][/small][br][br]

    It's 60 irrelevant seconds of the round that have zero bearing on ANYTHING, particularly IC.

     

    I realize banning end-of-round grief isn't at all feasible, but I don't think this statement is entirely true. Some jobs, particularly scientists and chemists, can have massively overpowered weapons (grenades, bombs, mechs, etc) made solely for the purpose of murdering people during that 60 seconds. These weapons can have a potentially huge impact on the round if, for example, an antag is discovered before the shuttle arrives.

     

  13.  

    IMO exceeding official powers should be handled by SoP and just be a valid reason for demotion.

     

    Dereliction of duty I would like to see, but perhaps "Causing harm through Dereliction of Duty" would be better - it's unreasonable, IMO, to arrest a clown/mime/librarian/etc for dereliction of duty.

     

  14. I don't think they need their own channel, but it would be nice for them to have a channel to communicate on that isn't as full as security. Perhaps they could be given the service channel in addition to security?

  15.  

    Personally, I would say to get rid of all the snowflake cigarette code for individual reagents, and just make the temperature of the reagents in the cigarette rise.

     

    Are cigarettes even incorporated with the temperature system?

    Yep! Literally every atom has a reagents datum. The reagent temperature is stored by that datum.
