Completely agree with goof.

The full liability should rest on the shoulders of the one that activates the destructive device rather than on the one who made it - something something free will. If the activator is not identified, then nobody gets held accountable and it becomes a code issue to be ...

I have had some time to think about and looking at the situation at hand from an objective point of view I can add the following:

1) Ghosting at any point in time for any reason is not against the rules. The exceptions to that would be either a) when one is doing it to avoid conversion to team ...

I didn't take the disabler other than a few times where cargo tech/acting QM were cool about me entering the vault and giving it to them, so it wasn't about me getting armed to the teeth and then going to defend myself against antags. I saw the baton and makarov as part of the cleaner/assassin drip ...

Istoprocent1

First of all the attack logs - the mothership agent came at me with a baton in the engineering and I was defending with what I had available rather than me going around looking to insert myself into situations in order to utilize the gains from the vault. You can see that I was shot with the ...

They probably misread just as you were pulled down with them.
This is about Non-security, this ranges from command, to your local tider.
If everyone is an agreement that this is a sandbox and less roleplay, then everyone has "equal" opportunity of being security role. Does that mean for them to ...

You gave a good reason why the vote should be at the round start.

Security in LRP is outright allowed to kill anyone who is found with heretic or traitor gear, even if they were just holding it, UNLESS they have a reasonable excuse.

This is kinda cringe and a double standard with the newest headmin ruling where security doesn't become instantly valid for ...

After the points from materials were increased its not that bad to be honest as long as there are rocks to mine. The sand itself is already infinite as the storms fill out the holes (it does take extra time to wait for the storms tho).

Could add more things to do other than hard labor such as bit ...

Its a simple code issue.

Instead of creating policies and overhead for the administration to look into every instance of "retard, brainlet, autist, mentally delayed, etc" - just create a toggleable word filter that either replaces non-kosher words for those who need it with asterisks or replaces ...

As anticipated, it is a good change. Combat is more dynamic and no longer double shove gg.

Something that has become painfully obvious during this testmerge is the regular melee of humans is way too strong with their RNG stun punches and stamina damage. As well as lizard claws being useless ...

I think its less about "win-win-win" and "optimal play" rather than RD just griefing for no actual reason. If he doesn't want to help the effort, its okay. However he should not grief others for his amusement - what was the purpose of researching clown tech? Was he gonna do anything with it? If not ...

Istoprocent1

Its a good change on so many levels. Reduction/removal of game ending hardstuns from mundane sources is something that makes the combat more dynamic. At the moment one of the many issues is that you cannot be sure if that one shove was "just a prank bro" or should you be fighting for your life as ...

It says in Space Law that 300-500 points of labor are supposed to be roughly equal to 5 minutes of brig time. My best attempt at 500 points took 25 minutes on Icebox(no sand). I think I will just ahelp from now on.

Might have been because you fell into a trap. You can make regular plasma glass ...

I don't think you're arguing in good faith, so I won't discuss it further with you.

This is an easy way out by claiming the other side is not arguing in good faith, boom no discussion necessary. Its okay, we agree to disagree.

Me saying that there are only 2 good maps comes from MY SUBJECTIVE ...

I don't know how better to explain to you that it's more fair that the people who intend on playing next round are the ones who pick the map.

I understand your point. I think you are not understanding my point about a) the fact that few more people vote for the good maps a ka Metastation and ...

I fail to see the problem, BlueMemesauce, is having. The majority of people want to play Metastation and Deltastation. This is how it is. Chances are that even if everybody voted the results would be weighted overwhelmingly towards these two stations.

Istoprocent1

As in the other thread. There is no issue to be solved. Why make things worse for the majority for no reason other than "the good maps getting a few more votes". The good maps already get the majority of votes and the extra votes don't really matter. People will still vote for the alternative maps ...

Making security run after every minor infraction is probably not fun for anybody.

Even saying "hey, you cannot ignore crimes listed as felony in the new space law" backfires instantly when there is WarOps in progress and all these "crew aligned" antags come out of the woodworks.

Istoprocent1

These crowds tend to be same names and same faces. Its not like completely random people get together and just start griefing security for shits and giggles. Just have to crack down on that.

There is a gamemode just for that kind of stuff called Revolution or hypnoflash shenanigans. Outside of that ...

Istoprocent1

So are you in favor of giving everyone maint access? Nothing here is a security specific problem.

Might as well give it to everyone, since without maintenance access the play area is limited for no good reason. Game mechanics provide plenty of tools to create new rooms or make the current rooms ...

Istoprocent1

Taking away maint access is a really bad change in my opinion. On one hand if the round goes on for hours and hours, cool, on the other hand if its a 45 minute round then garbage tier antags (like heretic) who didn't pick the metajob (cargo tech/engineer etc) with maintenance access will have less ...

Okay, I've got a complaint to make here - No one who is arguing in favor of the OP is arguing in good faith.

Regen Coma has always been a bit griefy, especially when its distributed via air/contact. There are plenty of approaches that could be taken. One option would be making virologists name the virus correctly as well as mass produce and provide a cure for their airborne/contact viruses as a policy ...

Istoprocent1

Rework Regen Coma to activate during hard crit rather than at the current 30%. It would be a change for the better.

There is a policy discussion on maximizing antag and people asking for TC trades, because otherwise they would miss out on having a chance to make the round more interesting.

The rarity of antagonists is something we (mostly I?) spend a fair bit of time designing the game around. People who don't get traitor often because traitor is rare (it really isn't, you're likely just getting unlucky) is not a bug, it's part of the intricate balance of antagonist design ...

Istoprocent1

Between the options of the "best" and the "worst", it definitely is the "worst". I have posted about removing it as one in the ideas -> minor suggestions.

There are many problems with this objective:

a) heads who have to steal hand tele have a free objective if they take one roundstart.
b) once ...

Istoprocent1

#2 is a big one, since the people who are playing the game as intended (only turning on antagonists they actually want to play as) are getting punished. Why shouldn't you just enable every antagonist in hopes you can trade it for what you actually want?

That is the main issue - people who want ...

Istoprocent1

Yeah, I'd be down with turning them off on MRP until code changes are made to fix it, or security policy is changed so that dealing with heretics isn't a huge pain in the dick that earns you a bwoink half the time.

Either turn it off entirely and fix or modify the spawnrate on all servers - 1-2 ...

* Replacing firelocks with holofans - this change would remove a ton of CBT that comes when there is a slight breeze.

* Sec Baton rework - 35 stamina damage. To make it less like a buffed holosword, one could add shenanigans like baton checking if the user has more than 25 stamina damage, if yes ...

Istoprocent1

The change could be interesting, however, it would require a few more reworks in order to prevent it becoming a one-sided stompfest (a prolonged contact would lead to the crew winning most of the time - assuming 64 pop with 4 starting nukies, which is 1:15 ratio). Spitballing a few ideas.

Every problem that heretic has on MRP exists on LRP, I would significantly rather work be done into figuring out how to make the antag healthier or shut it out entirely.

First the gear would need to be divided into 2 categories - dangerous (eswords, .357s, bombs etc) and non-dangerous (encryption keys, noslips, agent IDs, voice changers etc). Even then a code solution such as antag-gear-redemption machine (which would add 2500 credits to security budget for every ...

Why not have a corrective filter for words and/or phrases that are deemed to be not suitable rather than the message just not going through or even worse people getting punished for it such as the infamous and horrific "its X".

That or for example:

With this approach the explosion can remain the same since people get a warning beforehand and ...
