Planetary Station """""design""""" document

Bottom post of the previous page:

His point is that we're rewarding players for something they should be doing anyway, although i don't really see how having a goal would be that, since the crew wasn't going to do it at all without a reward.

[Xhuis]

See, there's this thing called incentives...

I would count all mobs with stat = DEAD, observers/ghosts don't have stat, so it'll be their bodies (which only real ghosts have) that are counted.
Maybe include animals, maybe not (probably yes, because it hungers.)

and yes, we can just check if the mobs are dead on a "valid" level (essentially just a not-centcomm level)

Include animals, have animal products for armouring and possibly fancy other rewards. Balance animal murder with necro hunger as a thing.

Would slimes count because xenobio.
Traitors can just go hunt animals to increase the risk, while being at risk from said animals.
Traitor geneticists can humanise then murder monkeys to increase hunger.
Murderboners get met with an army of hostile necropolis shits, who you can't really murderbone as well as humans, so traitor gets screwed.

I need to finish respriting my medieval shit some of it is leather.

ok so about that map way back when i suggested basically this same thing except as just a map instead of a meme overhaul i said we should do the station as a "compound" instead of a station, IE no real hallways just walk outdoors to the next building, departments are their own buildings (genetics is attached to medical is attached to chemistry etc), maybe have paths with wires that go alongside them and a perimeter fence around the whole thing

would it be cooler to do this or just a regular station but with different stuff outside

[onleavedontatme]

I think a compound with maint being the underground tunnels on the next z level would be cool, and was what I was aiming for.

However that might end up feeling too different for something that people are already saying is too different, so I guess we'll see.

[PKPenguin321]

i still believe in planet station existing side by side with space station so i think its ok to make it different, players will get their regular station fix next mapchange

No no man you got it all wrong man xdtm like Im not good at explaining it to myself either so you are also sort of right but I mean like imagine if the warden job was just replaced with an snpc speaking of warden you know thzt feeel when you are warden and all sec is fucking stupid so you cant stop yourself from leaving brig to save lives yourself that there is how I feel about the crashed ship idea I mean thats what itd be like every round its like if ttt took place on the sinking titanic is what I feel we are moving toward

[Wyzack]

Rock did you hit your head, i am seriously concerned what the fuck

[TheColdTurtle]

Litterally what the fuck

[Aloraydrel]

Should I call 911?

[ShadowDimentio]

Everyone stand back, something has changed in rock. His autism has evolved, it's become advanced. Advanced autism. He can't communicate his thoughts right now.

[2:32 PM] Capital H: he feels there's too much pressure and obligation to work for the good of the statioin whereas fucking off has no punishment
[2:32 PM] Capital H: and the reward of the shuttle is unsatisfying
[2:32 PM] Capital H: but you have to take it and not fuck it up because you all worked for it
[2:32 PM] dannnobrando: oh my god
[2:33 PM] Confused Rock: At least 70% right i think
[2:33 PM] Confused Rock: Yeap

i will never complain about being bad at communication again

Translation

You have it all wrong xdtm, I understand I'm not very good at explaining my thoughts, even I have a hard time following.

Imagine if the Warden's job was just replaced with a NPC. Speaking of the Warden, I feel that this crashed ship idea will be akin to the Warden realising Security is so bad at their job that you feel compelled to leave the brig and save lives yourself.

That's what I think every round will be like, akin to if you were playing a role on the Titanic, you know the ship is sinking but you can't stand everyone else acting stupid or not working as efficiently as possible.

[confused rock]

Hey ho steelio you dont understand shiit alright lad imagine if you were thirsty so you tried to drink salt water and halfway through you realised it was salt water but you cant just leave that salt water sitting there if the glass was empty in thd first place you couldve drank your own piss of somethin
Or just listen to what H said because he was mostly right tbh

[TheColdTurtle]

Rock have you ever drank salt water?

[Steelpoint]

Ok I admit I'm wrong. What you said makes no sense whatsoever.

[D&B]

And I thought Danno didn't make sense

[Wyzack]

Rock please tell me this is some elaborate parody and your mental capacity has not actually degraded to this state

[confused rock]

ok

[peoplearestrange]

Okkkkkkk Back on topic...

[PKPenguin321]

what if the corruption is spreading because the planet dont like the space men stealing all they plasma

[onleavedontatme]

the corruption is a metaphor for how magic based features are spreading like a cancer and destroying our sci fi setting

[Xhuis]

but kor you made the necropolis magic

[PKPenguin321]

the corruption is a metaphor for how magic based features are spreading like a cancer and destroying our sci fi setting

no that the natural jungles reaction to getting its plasma taked

"hi i take purple fire gas that kills you and bring it to space where it will ironically be used to light me on fire"
"no"
"fuck"

[tacolizard]

Kevinz said I should help out on this. It seems like it would be a lot of fun to work on especially considering balance won't be considered sacred, so we could experiment with a lot of stuff.

I think I would be best at spriting, but I have also done some mapping work for Pubbystation so I could do mapping too. I could do coding, but I still haven't gotten totally over BYOND's learning curve.

[Gun Hog]

Welp, sign me up too then I guess. Either I hop on this bus or be crushed under its monster truck tires. I will be contributing code, of course.
