Byond account: ChangelingRain/Anonus Tanir
Banning admin: ausops
Ban type (What are you banned from?): permaban

They're not stun immune and they can hold items, which means they can abuse the combat system like humans do but one man with one taser is the end of you. This sucks.
They should be immune to stuns, but not able to hold items, so they're a more consistent threat instead of losing to the first man ...

ChangelingRain

The answer is, you get banned. Maintainers do not bow to anyone but their headcoder.

ChangelingRain

Here's a simple thing; make getting stunned by stamina damage remove most or all of it, because see previous reasons why in the thread.

ChangelingRain

Let me make this visibly official; I agree with ausops on this.
If jmad wants mercy he'll have to pester mso.

The rest of the people involved should make their own appeal threads since this one is basically all madison now.

What a curious assertion. One so obviously wrong, too.

ChangelingRain

I do think that'd be a good replacement for clockcult but I doubt I'd be able keep motivation long enough to code it.

ChangelingRain

But it's true. Even if you guys make it less cancerous, and the PR about making you keep your unlocks even if your requirements drop isn't helping, it'll still be bad. It's to the point where if I'm roundstart security and we find out clock cult, we nearly never lose because the cult is that weak ...

ChangelingRain

Yeah yup we're doing this, it's a thing.

ChangelingRain

I kind of suspected that this would happen, why does our ban system have to randomly suck ass, lifted.

Your source does not appear to be open. Curious. Perhaps we should sue.

No more bullet weapons for security. Energy weapons only.

If you're going to cite Rule 2 you should probably also cite the Rule 2 precedents, specifically:

It is from my understanding of timers, that as they are inherently asynchronous, there shouldn't be an effect or any strain on performance, especially as the server wasn't showing any symptoms of lag at all. Please correct me if I am wrong.
What timers/the timer system does is it puts the strain ...

ChangelingRain

When timers are broken and point overlays don't go away, is the correct course of action to spam point to cover every tile in a pointer that won't go away?
You being a drone isn't actually relevant; the main reason for the ban, which may have been unclear, was that you didn't just go "Oh, I'll stop ...

Dunc has been added as a Coder.

There shouldn't be wide-open spaces like that at all, ever, that's not what a jungle looks like. A jungle is dense, you can't see very far, and if you step wrong you end up getting eaten by ants.

ChangelingRain

Maybe some sort of group scavenger mob that prefers to eat from unguarded corpses, but will swarm and attack targets it "thinks" it can kill if it's hungry enough.
If it's not hungry, it'd probably just try to hide out of sight and wait for things to die and get left behind.

Luke Cox wrote:Non-conversion loud group antag. Sounds good to me. How far do these have to go until we can see them in action?

Probably pretty far; I have the design set out, but I don't have any code or sprites done.

ChangelingRain

Does it have to be jungle, really? Why not ash-covered mushroom stuff, we have the sprites for it already and they're even ausops sprites.

ChangelingRain

Krusvik was reduced to GameMaster.

ChangelingRain was promoted to Headmin.

ChangelingRain

RNG is the cause of a lot of rounds ending abruptly already when antags play a bit nicer, I'm not sure what's to be gained by adding yet another "time to reroll!" forcing event in the face of many people saying they would like more interesting, indepth, longer rounds.

These just remind me of ...

The intent here is kind of that a monstrosity is something a couple prepared assistants can take on, but not something a single person can. Kind of like an alien queen if it didn't have facehuggers or a number of instant stuns.

Code doesn't matter, as this is what we choose to enforce as policy: We've chosen to rule catpeople as nonhuman. They happen to use the mutant parts system, but something using the mutant parts system does not automatically mark it as a mutant nonhuman.
It's like saying each lizard with a different ...

ChangelingRain

It does not drop everyone it ate until it is destroyed entirely.
Destroying it isn't actually hard, though; all you have to do is wait for it to go to sleep, then drop it in the deconstructive analyzer/the crematorium/the disposals grinder.

ChangelingRain

A mining mob to replace the goldgrub on lavaland, a boss that I partially coded then scrapped because it was shit, and a second map, for lowpop, that I partially developed then abandoned.

Also god damn it Gun Hog that's a trailing return .

ChangelingRain

For most hilarious, take smoke and forcewall. That's 2 points and is the most absolutely annoying defensive combo; you block all your enemies and prevent them from seeing where you're going. It's cheap, hilarious, and robeless.

So the final reckoning is basically "draw nar-sie rune while pressing ability button, instantly win once the rune appears"?

So instead of buffing stats you tape a weird gimmick onto a gun

Unless the gimmick is /REALLY/ good, I fail to see why anyone would choose that over buffing stats.

Because buffing stats results in abominations. Gimmicks are easier to balance with compared to slapping on damage bonuses, and ...

There ARE interesting things you can do with guncrafting, but if it's just damage(which either silly and way too strong or nearly worthless; all that matters is how fast the guy dies, and if you have a flat bonus to murder.....), range(which is nearly unnoticeable unless it's very short ...

I think there's a distinction between "hate lair/base-based antagonists" and "the clockcult is using the white ship as a constantly-stunning unassaultable base and that's terrible"

The ranged parasting could return but with literally just a mouse click! Wouldn't that be fun. We have the technology.

I made the change from 50% to 75% because:

1) Dual Eswords were a joke

2) Esword + Chair would give you 75% block with the same amount of damage as a dual esword

Since dual eswords were being outclassed by esword + a fucking chair, I buffed the dual esword to 75%. Seems pretty fitting given the ...
