Do you still need those animated things?

Yes. I made some crude sprites for the feature to be merged, but it desperately needs better quality sprites.

I made a pull request to make projectiles faster: https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/21366

Bug. Create an issue on github about it.

phil235

fun fact with the new system swarmers can break clothes if they shock you enough times. So the new swarmer meta is to stunlock someone until all their clothes break and only then teleport them away

Will be fixed by https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/21089

I need animated sprites (3-5 frames) for various attack effects that would appear on the attacked mob/object. I need a punch, a kick, a claw attack, a smash attack (for hulk & hostile animals), a disarm attack, a bite attack(larva & monkey), a mech melee attack when using fire damage melee and toxin ...

It's a good feature, it's just horrible right now and needs serious tweaking.

Outer layers need to protect inner layers, and certain items need to be more durable.

This.

Inner layers getting burned while wearing fireproof exterior clothes shouldn't happen, it's a bug I need to fix.
Everything ...

The Ultimate Chimera wrote:Dismemberment of xenos.

It's already in, but only happens when a xeno is gibbed. We can't make xeno lose a limb while alive because of the multiple sprites used for different stances (resting, unconscious, ready to pounce, etc...).

This isn't merged yet but I need some feedback on this experimental PR. It adds a wheel with preset common messages (Hi, Thanks, Stop, Help, etc). This would mean you no longer have to stop moving and go in chat mode to say very simple and short ...

It happened more than a year ago, and this change was not intended. The problem lies in the fact that we use the do_mob() proc for many things, including stuffing mob in bins, and for most of these things it makes sense to prevent the action for handcuffed people so the proc was standardized by me ...

Special names like clown or chaplain need to be changed in the Setup Character menu before the roundstart. Otherwise changing your name after the round has started causes issues, because a traitor that has you as their target will see your old name in their objective instead of the new name.

There's also the issue of the plant bag dropping plenty of cherry bombs on a tile, then you trigger one cherry bomb. You end with 50+ explosions happening simultaneously, this is a source of lag.

phil235

I like the idea. You can even make the system faster by having the machine create and equip the bluespace prisoner ID directly on the prisoner just before teleporting them to gulag. All you'd have to do is put the criminal in the machine, set the point limit on the computer and push the "send to ...

phil235

this is a bug, make an issue report about it on github. This is due to an oversight in a recent fix involving plant analyzer.

phil235

Most people who play this game will never contribute to it, so why should they complain about the people who do?

There is such a thing as spamming PRs. Goof made ~320 PRs in the last 1.5 years and only ~130 got merged, that's a 40% merge rate, one of the lowest of all coders who ever coded for ...

phil235

you used to be able to instantly get people in a chokehold with sleeping carp, can you do that still?
You used to be able to because of an exploit using hotkeys. With the new system sleeping carp can still give you an instant agressive grab (which restrains the victim, making them drop the stuff ...

phil235

If you're pulling a cuffed person and someone (you included) bumps into them you'll lose the pull/grab and they'll dart off - this is a major sec nerf.
Can't reproduce this bug, a pulled handcuffed person cannot be pushed or position swapped by a person other than the puller. But that other person ...

phil235

Remember that being able to get aggressive grab nearly instantly in the old system was due to an exploit with hotkeys. People who didn't use hotkeys in the old system had to wait 2 or 3 seconds to get their aggressive grab.

ShadowDimentio wrote:I despise how long it takes to aggressive grab now. Make it instant and usable with the action key, I want tabling to be a thing again.

1 second is too much for you?

phil235

It basically doesn't affect sleeping carp, I made sure not to change any functionality or gameplay balance.

ctrl+click pulls, which is technically a passive grab now. You can't aggressively grab with ctrl+click, it might be possible to change.

phil235

I made the grab upgrades faster: https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/18038

The second between ctrl+clicking and the grab actually happening is really throwing me off. It should be instant, plus the sound effect and red text makes people freak out.
That shouldn't be happening, and it ...

phil235

i'd also like upgrading with the hotkey back if that's possible
Pretty much impossible since there's no longer an actual item in your hand when grabbing.

Could it be that the grab """refactor""" made xenomming impossible?
It should work fine, I tested xeno devouring a human.

If people want ...

phil235

Cheridan your changes have been fucking shit lately.
The changes are mine, Cheri only merged my PR.

It doesn't matter if it was meant to or not, it's still a significant change to anything grab related in combat

With this, there is now no reason to ever use a grab in combat, it can take an ...

Nutriment:

Vitamin

- It doesn't provide any healing anymore, instead it increases a value (could be "Healthiness") that when high decreases the chances of viruses entering the body through touch and air (not injections) by up to 90%

Err, vitamin already does this... It reduces the chance of contracting ...

Question, since hungers been fiddled with, cold Still makes your nutriment burn faster? It was an interesting mechanic, meaning people from cloning/cryo often had to chow down afterward, which... made sense to me. Which is also good because then you can feed someone a burger of their former body ...

I made a PR fixing it just now. So the bug will be gone soon.

I'm the guy who refactored hunger and I didn't realise it was off, lol. I noticed that it was slower than usual but had no clue it wasn't working at all.
The main reason is that hunger is indeed pretty slow. When the refactor was introduced I had to nerf it big because of all the people complaining ...

We've recently refactored vision and how fullscreen overlays (red circles when you're hit, vision impairements when wearing a welding helmet, the whole darkness thing when blind). This means that adding new fullscreen overlays is now pretty easy. This is why I'm making a thread to explore new ...

edit: or even better delay the shuttle launch by a couple seconds and play the escape shuttle's launch sound during this delay.

Sure, we can make the darkness be progressive, we can even make the cone not match the tiles and make the border of our vision a straight line.
Just need a good spriter :)
I offered to do this.
You can still create a new cone if you're up for it. As I said, this post is just a proof of concept ...

phil235

Would it be possible to see it as a more gradual change (like unconsciousness and lack of oxygen/low health) rather than be somewhat jarring dark and black squares?

That actually looks pretty interesting. It helps maintain immersion, allows ambushes to succeed more easily, and isn't too restrictive for peripheral vision.
How does it interact with x-ray vision and optical meson scanners? How about natural darkness behind your back - is that amplified to make it ...

Thoughts?

I agree with all these proposals, except for cryo. If you can't heal people not in crit then you can't heal cellular damage on cloned patient.

So, with the 2 chems you can use patches and they work fine, but!
