DSTAPP Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 The area between the mechanic and the engineering areas of the non used "assembly line" area. Lets turn it into a casino. Perks -It will bring more people to the south of the station. -it will make a new job called the dealer and another reason to need a guard. -it will bring more use for credit chips and cards. -more need for a chef and barkeeper and possible a need for another one. -Last but not least, New job "Dealer".

TullyBBurnalot Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 As much as I enjoy re-purposing the Assembly Line, I'm going with what Fj said. We have enough problems with people pestering/breaking into Engineering without a casino in there to ramp up civvie traffic. Next thing we know we have a bunch of angry betters trying to take it out on us. Unless, of course, we can add a permabrig-style N2O system to it! Then it'd be awesome.

veganzombeh Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I don't think the assembly line should be replaced, it's a brilliant construction site for engineering. I also don't think heavily economy-based features would work particularly well since nobody cares about money anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surrealistik Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Would like to see the Assembly Line replaced in whole or part with a security checkpoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox McCloud Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Hypothetically, if we ever to add in VG's mechanic, this is where it would go---and I personally feel that would be a better job than ...casino operator. That and I also feel that, for the most part, the points brought up here are quite valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanthelis Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Aren't slot machines and the like constructable? If not, they should be. Making a casino OUT of the assembly line IC and having your job changed IC by the Head of Personnel is way more interesting than it simply being a thing, and more than that, it's not something everybody would necessarily want or need every single round.

DSTAPP Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 Ok all very valid points to which i agree with but i thought it would be nice to add a casino to the station somewhere at some point. also it would encourage betting which i have not seen ever on the station.

TullyBBurnalot Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 We could hold bets on whether the nuke ops would win or lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surrealistik Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Still think that area should be a Sec checkpoint. Honestly, of all the places that should have one, it's fucking Engineering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTAPP Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 this is true but security would always be right there then. to counter your idea why not add a sec check point right in the middle of the science section next to roboticist and such.

Fj45 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Thats funny coming from the guy throwing twenty suggestions around to powercreep borgs. I shall neither confirm nor deny that allegation. But really, shitcurity wouldn't change much with a checkpoint, the big problems are with mapping space and usefulness of the room Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surrealistik Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Thats funny coming from the guy throwing twenty suggestions around to powercreep borgs. Again I don't shirk from that charge; that doesn't impugn me because borgs are obviously UP and have a skewed cost/benefit leaning towards the former as anyone who uses them often knows, so of course I'm going to keep suggesting and coding improvements for them until they are adequately rewarded for what they give up. I shall neither confirm nor deny that allegation. But really, shitcurity wouldn't change much with a checkpoint, the big problems are with mapping space and usefulness of the room An encouraged security presence at one of the grief nerve centres of the game is pretty reasonable and definitely more useful than an empty room or a gambling hall.

DSTAPP Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 anyway back to the point of the casino idea anyone know where to put one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fj45 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 We don't need a damn casino. If the gambling system is expanded somehow it can just be added to the bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoX Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Honestly if there was a casino, it wouldn't technically have to be nanotrasen. It could have its own station on its own Z level, maybe have a shuttle or gateway access, though it will probably be a bad idea for some reason or other.

DSTAPP Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 so a gateway like to the beach but to a casino i like that idea and it would not run into problems with changing the station itself, i'm all for this idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
