Bottom post of the previous page:

It looks interesting but alot of the space is horribly under-utilised and it would need a bit of updating to make it playable (Basil had one brief round on it and it was so broken that the only kind thing to do was BSA it).
I'd love to see a re-design of it with the new jobs and with a bit less wasted space, like the corridors being 3 tiles wide and maintenance either being unnecessarily wide or just serving no point.

Spike traps! A type of NPC/player mob that attacks people under it WITH MASHY SPIKE PLATES!! The player that creates the trap is its 'master', and will not be crushed, but anyone else attempting to cross will! Spike traps cannot move on their own, but NPC traps allow their master to drag them, and player traps can unanchor at will.

Upon smashing someone, they will deal 100 brute damage (reduced by armor), and inducing a stun slightly shorter than their reset timer. They have somewhat high health, and heal by SMASHING MOBS! It is recommended that the trap's master place and set up its environment in a favorable manner. Inspired by this: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/568517

Traitors should get post-it notes in the shape of these bad boys to leave 'subtle' hints for the detective. Or at least have admins place them for a gamemode/event much like the show.

Give chameleon jumpsuits the ability to report fake damage to the crew monitor via its suit sensors for extraspecial "HELP AI HARM" fuckery.

edit: at first I thought it'd be shitty on account of everyone immediately guessing what you're doing and you might as well be announcing that you're a tator over comms but then I realised that validhunters would be megabanned if they instantly descended upon and dunked someone who was asking for medical help.

Which is still funny, fuckit.

*inhale and *exhale. You must alternate between the two every five seconds (broadcasting a message to anyone nearby; "Urist McBreather breathes in/out."), or else you start slowly taking oxygen damage. This occurs even when using internals.

Cuban Pete Concentrate
INCOMING BROAD-SPECTRUM TRANSMISSION...
Hey Spessmans! Are your bombs weak, impotent and lackluster? Is the mandatory bomb cap getting you down? Don't worry, your friends at the NotTheSyndicate have got you covered with all new Cuban Pete Concentrate! Made from a secret formula that simply CANNOT be beat and will show everyone who's really the King of the Rumba Beat. Simply take the packet, tear off the top and add it to an explosive of your choice to dramatically increase the explosion ten-fold!

Now you're probably saying to yourself, "But NotTheSyndicate! What about the bomb cap? Nanotraesn won't let me explode their top-secret research facilities anymore!", in which case you should probably not talk to yourself like that otherwise people will think you're a weirdo! But as for that old bomb cap, have no fear for Cuban Pete is here! No bomb cap will ever hold you down and you can finally destroy the top-secret facility of your dreams and everyone on it.

Why wait? Order now from your local Uplink for the low, low price of 20 Telecrystals! That's right, ONLY 20 Telecrystals and you too can destroy a corporation.

NotTheSyndicate is not liable if you're imprisoned for life for possession of this product/ingesting this product/unwanted death that may occur. For ages 3 and up.

Slipping should move you 1 tile forward. If there is something slippery on that tile too, you should continue to slip forward. Imagine all the banana peel slides or traitors setting up sliding traps that lead into electrified doors.

Lube used to work like this but it got nerfed hardcore. RIP, slip-line from Medbay to the escape airlock.

Wizard spell that works like EI NATH, and counts towards kill objectives.

Instead of gibbing, though, it turns the player into a skeleton that's loyal/given objectives to assist the wizard. The skeletons also have viable brains in their skulls that can be surgeried out, if they ever get caught/beaten down.

Let them 'infect' people they manage to crit, healing the victim in the process. That way, the victim is a walking time bomb and host to the demon until the victim is critted again or decides to burst!

I partly wants this BECAUSE of Grey Tribals becoming maintenance dwelling cannibals, hunting stray members of the crew.

Hulk makes you destroy/shred out of your Exosuit clothing at minimum, meaning no stupid jackets to cover up your skin, or hide behind, atop of why the fuck not, its hulk. He could only wear torn shorts in the first place so maybe even have all clothing but shorts shred upon wearing, or you cannot put on period. Let the wave of naked hulks begin!
