No DNA apparently.

Can it atleast be made to say human genome instead of just genome then?

Grass should convert small quantities of CO2 into O2.

The point still stands. If aliumweeds can do it with plasma and kudzu may soon beable to do the same then why cant grass do it with CO2?

Facundo · Post by **Facundo** » Thu Jun 12, 2014 4:08 pm #13174

I was wondering about that, do mobs that breath oxygen generate co2? if so, we could release a lot of resources commenting out the place where they generate co2, since that gas is only useful for being "not oxygen or not other gas"

no lol
for what purpose would they ever do that

Facundo · Post by **Facundo** » Thu Jun 12, 2014 4:40 pm #13180

Well, we do have a new sun, since we killed the first one to protect us from the lag... now, joking aside, since the atmos system spans all the blocks in the station and is so over present, much more than the powernet, any small optimization we can come with could make have really huge impact.... I think I will look into the code and see if there is anything productive I can apport, and start a thread in coding, since I went off topic here...

so, coming back on topic, I want other ways to get paints from aside from slime magic, Cargo comes to mind.

Edit: Everything must be blue, is such a nice color! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vu7kqxkqPdA

I will murder you if you use that blue for all your posts.

Facundo · Post by **Facundo** » Thu Jun 12, 2014 4:59 pm #13183

If you weren't a mod, I would had taken that as an invitation to continue with the blue crusade...

But seriously, add another way to get paints, they are really fun to use and they get used so rarely becouse you need either divine intervention, wich can't happen every round, or good luck at xenobio, wich needs a really long round.

Munchlax · Post by **Munchlax** » Thu Jun 12, 2014 5:13 pm #13184

Bay has an artkit you can order from cargo, we could use that.

AseaHeru · Post by **AseaHeru** » Thu Jun 12, 2014 5:15 pm #13186

I thought that was in /TG/ code aswell...

Add a delay between hits for people hitting mechs. As it stands anyone with a fire extinguisher can break a mech at sanic speed.

Kavaloosh · Post by **Kavaloosh** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 10:04 pm #13563

there are like 5 op as fuck beepskys around the station at all times, one was fucking enough

uh no, ever since beepsky was changed so you have to actually click him with your mouse, he's been unbelievably overpowered, and now there's more than just him? terrible, just terrible, plus lots of officers carry beepsky around, and now you cant take yourself off with hudsunglasses, which should be changed back

Lovecraft · Post by **Lovecraft** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 10:59 pm #13579

Artyom has very low Sec. sometimes, so I honestly don't mind the extra Beepskys.
Though if it's up to 5, it can be scaled to 3. 5 really is overkill.

Post by **lumipharon** » Sun Jun 15, 2014 3:08 am #13604

5? There's beepsky, one other one on patrol, and one in the armory. You can still easily outrun beepsky, although yes, it is annoying as fuck to shoot it, although having to click to hit small targets (monkeys/slimes/beepsky etc) has been around for a while.

Steelpoint · Post by **Steelpoint** » Sun Jun 15, 2014 4:18 am #13615

On the entire server (Sybil) there are four Securtitron units.

Officer Beepsky: On station, patrolling.
Officer Pingsky: On AI Satellite, not patrolling, can't get on station.
Securitron 1138: On station in Armoury, deactivated.
Ofitser Beepsky?: On Gulag, deactivated.

So really, you only have one Securtitron to deal with by default, two at max.

iamgoofball · Post by **iamgoofball** » Sun Jun 15, 2014 4:34 am #13617

Kavaloosh, keep in mind robotics with supplies from cargo can make a beepsky a minute if they have the supplies.

miggles · Post by **miggles** » Sun Jun 15, 2014 6:17 am #13629

holy shit theyre not called beepskys
beepsky is the name of ONE of them
on artyom there's only officer beepsky and inspector johnson, as well as one deactivated securitron in the armory
if there are more than 3 securitrons at any given time, it means robotics built some

paprika · Post by **paprika** » Sun Jun 15, 2014 6:53 am #13635

beepsky used to be the only security bot on the station at any one time soooo

miggles · Post by **miggles** » Sun Jun 15, 2014 7:01 am #13636

that one time was quite a while ago
and im sure most people know you can build them

you don't have to aim with monkeys or slimes, you can aim past them

Having tried to turn people into my borg army as wizard, and had to then deal with angry monkeys/slimes I'm 100% certain that bolts will fly over their heads... troubling when they pick up weapons/try to glomp me.

miggles · Post by **miggles** » Mon Jun 16, 2014 1:38 am #13771

pretty sure the issue is that officers have to give up their own stun batons since theyre so limited in quantity
if you buy them and tell the hos you want to build sectrons and they refuse, that's just them being retarded
more sectrons is always good for sec

Post by **lumipharon** » Tue Jun 17, 2014 11:59 pm #14263

Can't securitrons/ED-209's still cause serious lag from retard pathfinding, or was that fixed?

Also people tend to cry powergamer if you try make lots of secbots, although having 12 ED-209's made one round as a warden, I can say it's pretty hilarious either way.

Make changeling husks not leave behind a blood trail. If you can't get any with a syringe, you shouldn't be able to leave a gigantic smear across the entire station.

Tokiko2 · Post by **Tokiko2** » Fri Jun 20, 2014 8:25 pm #14841

Give us the ability to pick a pill/bottle appearance when using the chemmaster. Really, what's the point of different looking bottles and pills if they are all randomly choosen?

Kavaloosh · Post by **Kavaloosh** » Fri Jun 27, 2014 10:32 pm #16189

fix the flash stun, it used to be way less than taser or baton stuns but now it's the same, please fix this bug

Tokiko2 · Post by **Tokiko2** » Sat Jun 28, 2014 1:08 am #16206

3 ideas:

A custom suicide message thing so you can type out your own suicide message and maybe even choose if it does brute/burn/poison damage or whatever.

A new reagent that turns corpses in zombies like the blobspores do but without the spore on their head. Maybe a mushroom or something.

Change napalm to not cause a small fire on impact but instead make sprayed/splashed people extremely flammable and almost impossible to extinguish.

Bubble gum in the vending machines

Bubblegum should be equippable to the mask slot so you can look like your blowing bubbles every few ticks similar to smoking poofs.

ability to make the showers shower welding fuel on you if you manually fill it with welding fuel.

use it on your unsuspecting victim and laugh as you weld them on fire.

probably a shit idea but whatever

If you wrench a shower it makes the water freezing so you can freeze people to death in 'em. Same shit kinda.

Already know that but wrenching one to hot and then filling another with welding fuel sounds amusing.

Hot doesn't set them on fire though so it wouldn't work.
