I love it when some idiot overrides my landing spot, placed north east with plenty of good minerals and no lava, and sets one near a tendril, also near the mining outpost. Good job!

Also shuttle calls that go "our job is done lets go home"
Fuck off

People who run around in gas masks for no reason. You might as well print a big sign on your head that says "I rolled antag, dunk me."

maybe its cuz they have a fucking gas mask and no easy way to store it and just want to take the simplest option? this aint lifeweb where it thirds your vision cone, if you want the sign you get a balloon.

One time I put on a gas mask and used a chameleon ID and a mirror to disguise myself as Zoey Webb and performed a couple of murders. It was faaaaaaaaaaantastic.

Literally no reason to have a gas mask when your breath mask does the same thing. You know, apart from the obvious reason people grab them, to hide your face with your ID off.

Gas masks reduce the effectiveness of smoke on you and I think they're also capable of filtering out non-O2 gases as well

I know when I first started playing someone told me that gas masks make your O2 tanks last longer and the reduce tank pressure to 16kPA trick before that became standardised in code.

Plus I'm pretty sure gas masks give you a slight increase in melee resistance

Did someone remove gas masks giving you a second or two of plasma filtration (pathetic and useless as it was)?

There of been a number of times when a second or two of filtration would've saved my life. When the brig gets suddenly flooded with knockout gas. Or you're in near-crit and you catch a whiff of plasma.

Klara elstrom. Like emily ranger but not endearing enough to be likable while remaining unrelenting.

Just had a ops round where after the entire team fluked, klara took the ops gear and spammed syndiesoap all through the halls as everyone was chasing her, and then started actively firing disabler shots resisting arrest slipping everyone by throwing soap and looting them. That and the borgs went batshit and also started slipping everyone willy nilly with soap regardless of the round, i had to actually tap a borg on the shoulder (metaphorically) to suggest they slip the ops instead of the crew.

- I just really fucking hate constantly testing meme characters, no i dont need a skillcheck i want you dead and in cloning or on NO2 to stop your RP ADHD and severe mental health problems to constantly be a arse & make security's life hell whenever you are non-antag. Picking a hole at low IC crime in that if they keep constantly harrassing you with harmless pranks you can't effectively punish them IC without metagrudging (dragging freon canisters around the halls during a ops round is very shitty and not a harmless prank) they just seek to constantly humiliate and belittle you for some kind of power complex. Fuck i've just been trying to ease into security officer role after a absence and its wall to wall with this shit.

- Low ic constantly criminal characters are literally feigning insanity.

I just usually steal a spare microwave & drinks dispensers where i find them and mixology the useful array of bartender drinks into (Alcoholic) placebo tablets.

Did you know 'Brave Bull' raises your health with the refactor Xhuis did last year that 1 year later only just got noticed? Barefoot alcoholic drink, makes people without shoes heal 3 ticks, excellent for digitgrades. Mix it in with like 5 ounces of antihol to stop people dying.

Ignorance to how literally bartenders counter changelings by simply being able to dispense infinite coffee & coffee latte (via soy milk from kitchen) which also heals brute is the most ANNOYING thing.

Sharp spears is actually an oversight in lazy coding. Somebody took "is_sharp" and just stuck it on a million things instead of using proper vars for embedding.

Tree-cutting speed is based on the item's force, so fireaxes and chainsaws are really good at it, unsurprisingly. You can also take a lot of time with glass shards.

Not really. You'd just have to go through and ctrl+f genocide a ton of "is_sharp" vars off of things that shouldn't have them and give them (I think it is anyway) can_embed instead. It would be a moderate balance chance as well since it would mean a ton of stuff would lose its ability to debrain heads.

Saying this "annoys" me is way too strong, but here's something that bugs me at least somewhat:

When you're an MMI you can listen and talk over the radio no problem.

When you're a borg you can listen and talk over the radio no problem.

If you're a dead borg you cannot listen or talk over the radio and can leave your "dead body" and ghost around.

If your borg body gets blown after you've already died you can reenter the MMI and continue to listen/talk over the radio.

Basically... why can't a dead borg continue to walk/talk over the radio?

Now one argument could be that the output is blocked, it's like when you jack headphones into your phones so it doesn't play music loudly.

I also get from a meta-perspective it's to shut a dead borg up so they don't scream about who killed them, especially since you can't just destroy a borg with sufficient damage or something.

But maybe one could make it so that when a borg dies it isn't considered "dead" yet and instead reboots for like ~5 minutes (or whatever) after which the MMI inside turns back on and can talk?

My point just is that it's weird how a blown borg (a MMI) is "alive" and can talk/listen to the radio while a "dead borg" is simply... well dead...

It's a really minor thing though.

When you're an MMI you can listen and talk over the radio no problem.

Yes you're dead as a borg but if your dead body gets blown you're alive again.

It's just weird and makes you wonder why the MMI (which is apparently alive) can't talk from inside the dead borg shell.
