re-evaluate Gulag mineral points

Post by CPTANT » #218260

Gulag points for each mineral should be re-evaluated.

Sand is worth way too much, everything else too little.

Especially the case since the change to Lavaland.


Also: Why the f can't security officers use the Gulag teleporter. They can Perma and brig people, but not send them to the gulag without the old tedium.

Kor changed so sec officers can't send people with the teleporter. About the gulag points, the points are:
"glass" = 1
"metal" = 2
"solid plasma" = 20
"plasteel" = 23
"reinforced glass" = 4
"gold" = 20
"silver" = 20
"uranium" = 20
"diamond" = 25
"bananium" = 50
The thing is that grabbing sand is much quicker than grabbing the same amount in metal.

The spawn rates for metal are disgustingly low on the island is why.

You know it's impossible to forge anything but metal, glass and plasteel in the furnace right? Anything else produces worthless slag

That's because you're impatient and set everything to "YES" when smelting. You have to process stuff one at a time.

Most people suicide as soon as they're sent to Gulag.

So a lack of sand to mine doesn't seem like a big problem.

Rather make it less likely for tendrils and megafauna to spawn near the island. I saw 2 prisoners killed by gum once.

[20:26:02]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Welp. It was just a prank bro isn't a very good excuse when it comes to unprovoked nonantag murder, but since this is your first time doing it and you seem to understand the problem instead of a bannu I'm just going to leave you with a warning. Please PLEASE don't do this again in the future, as funny as crackhead broken bottle memes can be. Alrighty? Do you have any input on this?
[20:26:39]ADMIN: PM: [censored]->[censored admin]: Alright, no problem. I have some input. Fuck my boy pussy.
[20:27:06]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Okay then. Have fun.
[20:31:29]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Excuse me?

Only times I got sent to the gulag were once where a crooked impersonator let me go early and once when an incompetent sec officer arrested me without charge and tried to ERP.
