Bottom post of the previous page:

it uses less power to shoot, and shoots quicker.

Better manipulators increase firing rate.
Better lasers make the emitters more power efficient.

To finalise a rare round where i rolled as QM i completed my pet project, the Cucker Legacy Vault.

I mean... we could stay here and be stranded with our 100 year old technology, or...

i became the media

make newspapers able to be read in the round end when

also what happened to cross server news

I made a small infinite loop of emitter beams because I thought they looked pretty



It had the unexpected consequence of shooting up time dilation to 140% but luckily it was dealt with before it became a problem.

i remember when reflected walls first came out and some greyshirt set up an emitter in escape and had it bounce all the way to arrivals and back. IIRC the captain gave him the medal of captaincy for it, even though the vast majority of fired beams ended up hitting people before making the round trip.

never really see them outside of the engine these days though.

wait that caused 140 time dilation i used to regularly do this with 28 admin emitters and a shitload of mirrors...

2 hours of isolation does better things to a 3-man 116-year-old crew than an up-to-date station filled with people

More news.

caution: admins hard at work

Is that loss?

I'm at a loss.

At least we had a lizard head this round.

Banned for disrupting the natural order of life and death as a drone.

isnt that actually bannable? i remember ahelping once if i could make an autocloner and was told that it would be against drone laws

Deitus wrote:isnt that actually bannable? i remember ahelping once if i could make an autocloner and was told that it would be against drone laws

Seems nonsensical, since creating an autocloner improves the station without interacting with any organic beings.

Making an autocloner is perfectly kosher. Putting bodies in it is no bueno.

on certain round in the past i'd put autocloners in the brig, hallway, bridge, arrivals shuttle, and escape shuttle all on the same fucking round

if it was bannable i'd have already been banned.

Admins usually dont act on drones until someone complains about them.

Auxillary public cloners/Autocloners could be argued to be seen against the intent of a antagonist to kill people, so generally it makes drones valid as fuck to ahelp.

I know drone rules are vauge as fuck but this sounds like BS, drones are literally supposed to improve the station via construction, machine building, decoration, and power generation.

If you bitch about a drone building public machines that literally anyone can use even antags you need to lighten up, and maybe just, I dont know, destroy the machines if it becomes a problem.

"Sounds like BS" you say. Up until the point a admin agrees with me/a antag that drones are cloning people or salty now dead people are trying to undermine the antagonists effort by making a cloning rig.

Well its well taken advice that if its not guranteed extended mode you probably should not play drones at all unless you decide on very specific lists of activities with 0 chance of messing with situational antagonists present, and actively observe antags as a ghost to determine their intent first.

> For instance, i've seen drones cleaning floors & walls in the middle of a gang round, not only is slipping important areas like brig with wet water a MAJOR issue, removing gang signs as graffiti is majorly fucking with how the gang operates. Same goes for removing blood trails. Drones cleaning is usually a major thumbs down.

Don't argue with Fwoosh. Nobody takes him seriously, so you don't have to worry about defending yourself

i represented Madra Tossilan's defense in this court hearing, i'm the lawyer exactly one tile west of the scrubber.

no you're not

NO I AM THE LAWYER

any op worth his salt would have just spaced it and kept looking for the respawn.

Emags should still not work on secure containers

Which to be fair, is literally the one thing they should be good at.

Spoiler:

https://i.imgur.com/iHhPMx6.png Also this fucking thing happened on the same round... apparently Bryce pissed off poly and killed the poor thing or something.

Pity you didnt use the sweet, sweet TCs to dick over other traitors.

Playing antagcurity is the most fun ive ever had. The tears of the other antags is sweet.

Back when antag detective was a thing I liked framing my target and watching as they got executed. One time I subverted the AI and communicated with it on the sec channel because there was no other sec

hate to break it to you but that's the syndie comms agent, you can tell because the say verb is "says" and not "squawks"

This monkey was walking up and down for much of the shift. Once a second, it'd walk onto the glass shard, making a noise which would be annoying if you heard it for twenty minutes straight. A troll, pissing off the virologist; I came back to it shortly afterwards to find its cell just filled with blood, five bottles full of it on the table as well.

It was AI controlled.

We need to do this with catatonic humans!!

Hahaha alright that explains a lot but... well I guess he just pissed of the syndies or someone felt like being a troll instead.

Make it so that catatonic humans can, with some encouragement, start walking dizzily in circles (four-tile squares) forever at a slow pace (and also stopped with similar encouragement).
