fludd12 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 This. Is. Amazing. What is it? (For those who can't visit the wiki page...?) It's a complete overhaul of our current assembly system (the thing that's created when you unscrew an igniter and a timer and shove 'em together). Among other things, this will allow for stationary health scanners that automatically heal people from a limited supply of chemicals, automated announcement systems, custom screen displays, or attachable assemblies that can do any of the above and more. The devices can be painted to look like other items, too! The PR on bay hasn't been made yet, but when it does, we really should look into getting paradise compatible with it! [spoiler2]And if someone (maybe me if I ever move beyond changing single lines of examine code) adds attaching signallers to computers and other machines, we'll be able to make some REALLY intricate contraptions :3[/spoiler2] Thoughts?

ProperPants Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 This does look pretty cool, and I'd love for it to happen. In fact, people have been tossing around the suggestion for what to do with Xenoarchaeology for a while and I've said it should be converted to a newer, larger test lab. This assembly system, in my opinion, is complex enough to warrant a unique and isolated testing facility under the science division. Even if a new test lab doesn't happen because "science 2 stronk" (although I agree), I'd still be glad to see this system implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox McCloud Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Someone is a goon player. some of these are literally implementations of Goon's mechanic system (not the scan+generate, but the components). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spacemanspark Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I want this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'S what I was gonna say. And I love them for this, that's one of my favorite mechanics from Goonstation and if it's ported over even half decently, that'd be amazing.

tastyfish Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 The mechanic stuff is literally my favorite thing from Goonstation by far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fludd12 Posted February 13, 2016 Author Share Posted February 13, 2016 It's basically a handheld version of the mechanic job, yeah. I want it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fludd12 Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 Good news, everyone! It's still a work in progress, and may spontaneously combust under even a slight glare, but it's been started! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Professor Cupcake Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 This looks freakin' amazing. If this were added, I'd probably lose a day experimenting with it. Although a 10-component limit seems like it won't be possible to make any properly complex machinery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox McCloud Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 the code for this borders on nightmarish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
