Spacemanspark Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 https://github.com/Baystation12/Baystation12/pull/10381 This would likely mean we'd have to port over Bay's rig system as well, but who knows. Essentially, this allows an intellicarded AI or a pAI to take control over a hardsuit if given permission by the hardsuit wearer. Ya this isn't going to end well. But it's worth a shot.

tigercat2000 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 This isn't feasible without porting bay's hardsuit system, and porting bay's hardsuit system would require someone willing to spend hours fucking with it, since it is so damn incompatible with everything.

Mrs Dobbins Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Doesn't Bay's hardsuit system (like baycode in general) work by simply sacrificing a coder now and then and then grinding their body to mulch and pumping it into the server?

Tauka Usanake Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I don't know how I like this idea even if you can give control to an AI or allow it control when you die. I can't help but to think that the AI will get some malf control over a hardsuit. I can't say that's my only disagreement with this but I can't think of others. Just don't like this feeling I get from it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazneria12 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I'm getting a vashta Nerada feel here, and I love it, I think if the person dies the pai should gain control. Hey, who turned out the lights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox McCloud Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Not only this, but this effectively makes the wearer of the hardsuit unkillable, long turn, unless you out and out gib him or you use an EMP on every hardsuit wearer to ensure that you did, in fact, kill the pAI. Why? If the person dies, the pAI can cake over and control the suit. It's evne worse on Bay because of how retarded their hardsuits are; you can't even remove a hardsuit without surgery. Spaced someone? Too bad, pAI is going to get up and steer you right back to the station. Dropped in maintenance somewhere? Too bad, pAI is going to get its master up and walk back to medbay.

Pretty sure if you cut off a leg they'll fall over and have issues moving. Could also just make it AI only, I kinda have to agree pAI's with the ability to do this is probably a bad idea.

HereticChurch Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I was in love with this feature when I first read it. It'd be a cool feature to have, but I'd suggest that the pAI units would only be able to control the hardsuit while the wearer still has brain activity. Once the user dies, the pAI would lose control. Can't have any Y-17 incidents here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinarzad Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Kind of moot since it would take Bay's RIGsuit system, but pAI's should be able to do it if it's gonna be a thing, otherwise it may as well never be ported over because how often are you REALLY going to have an Intelicarded AI to slot into your suit. I can agree to limiting it to a living user's suit though, unless maybe emagged or something. Would be pretty nice to have a kinda JARVIS style pAI going on, instead of the current Siri that we have whose only benefit is a universal translator. I mean pAI is a method of returning into the round that is in direct competition with Positronic Brains and becoming a Cyborg or Maintenance drones that while non-interactive, can pretty freely build shit as well as be emag'd to be tator assets.

SpaceTimeNow Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Why not just take the pAI from the hardsuit when you killed someone? The pAI will scream either way, if it's inside some slot on the hardsuit or the in your targets pockets, you have to deal with it either way. Obviously the pAI should not be able to instantly assume control if someone dies.. Don't see this as a big issue at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fludd12 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 While I don't want Bay's hardsuit system, is there any way we could try and jury-rig this to work with hardsuits on paradise? If you're concerned for balance from suit control from pAIs, just make it so that any damage to a pAI-piloted suit ejects the pAI, much like bopping it on the head. I'm imagining the RD stepping out of his NASA Voidsuit, Tony Stark-esque doing one basic task while the suit goes and does a different thing.

Kevak Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Prolly could use something along the lines of what Borers use to take control but specifically with suits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
