TheNightingale

How can you punish someone who harms innocents (Law 5) without associating with them (Law 1)?

TheNightingale

You can't incinerate an ID, though. You can space them, and I think you might be able to put them in a bag and acid the bag (or put them in a forensic bag, in a box, in a normal bag, then acid that).

TheNightingale

From the perspective of Space Law, the Geneticist did as follows: - 301 - Assault with a deadly weapon (monkeying someone = just as bad as, if not worse than, murdering them. Attempted murder is also a possible charge.) - 5 minutes - 302 - Assault of an Officer (ditto, plus disarming and punching) -...

TheNightingale

It is, but it doesn't build automatically. An auto mode would be helpful for hull, I suppose - either that or just metal rod/floor tile juggling.

TheNightingale

The RPD has infinite charge, and is quite a portable pipe dispenser. It's invaluable for blocking places off with half-built disposal chutes (and fighting space wind with them too).

TheNightingale

A 'reset to default' button in the debug tab? Would that be possible without entirely restarting the game world?

TheNightingale

Still less destructive than the meteors.

TheNightingale

Rather than the full 124, maybe the 1-14 toggle for ghosts? It's not as likely to DC the ghost in question, and it'd be harder to use for spooky metacomms.

TheNightingale

Maybe make it so they can't phase through walls (like normal ghosts) when they're visible? It'd stop them saxxing, at least. Don't give them knockdown powers either: a revenant ghost is one who attacks the injured and harvests their souls, not stunspikes the Captain on the Bridge.

TheNightingale

Set the target on fire, do light brute+burn damage, give them some firestacks and inject 1u spore toxin into them?
(Stop, drop and roll! And do it again, and again, and keep doing it!)

TheNightingale

It might work, but Security relies on trust - they don't have it at the moment (people can and will run up to you and steal your prisoner), and this certainly wouldn't help the anti-Sec meta. I read somewhere about a 'loose cannon'-type Security antag: no uplink or objectives, but they're not bound ...

TheNightingale

Recycle the autoloaders in the autolathe and exchange them for stetchkin ammo boxes, then dual-wield to be literally Rambo. Give the soap to the Janitor; they deserve it.

TheNightingale

SPACE ROME II: HAIL CAESAR AutoDrobe (requires both hack + coin): 15 Brute 'Pugio'; small item, high embed chance (throwforce 15) Roman heavy armour (40 Brute, 20 bullet (it's solid metal), 30 laser (SHINY metal), 10 energy, 25 bomb, 25 bio - bulky, slowdown=1, holds Roman paraphernalia) Adminspawn...

TheNightingale

"Hey, can you take these gloves off me? I kind of have them stuck to my ha-"
"TRAITOR LYNCH HE"

TheNightingale

Where on that chart does 'they draw a stunprod and your lethal force fails' fit in?

TheNightingale

But medical's also full of unrobust scrubs like me who can't saw people anyway.

TheNightingale

It's actually not a bad idea; it's just new and different, and therefore scary. (Also possibly horribly overpowered, if we really do get pulse miniguns.) Has it been coded, or is this all just hypothetical? I just realised, this takes out one of the main weaknesses of the Armory - going via space. I...

TheNightingale

If they break into Robotics, they're clearly doing it to get borged. You might as well hasten the process. And Genetics similarly; they want TK/Hulk, so lock them in a scanner and test the blocks on them. You note that 'most departments don't have the means to nonlethally detain someone' - but this ...

TheNightingale

You have to take the gloves off to disable it... so if you activate it with both hands full, you're SOL.

TheNightingale

AI was perfectly in rights to want you out of secure tech. AI policy specifically states as the only place you can bolt at roundstart too. Of course, I never bolt it because any traitor ballsy enough to actually steal the board instead of printing their own like an autist RD deserves that chance. (...

TheNightingale

Why not both? Baymed itself is horrifying, but amplified by ZAS, a million times more. on an unrelated note i would like to nominate running into nightingale on bay totally by accident as one of the more awkward ss13 experiences ive had Come now, I wasn't that bad... I was just as surprised as you;...

TheNightingale

You can't wield a gladius; it's meant to be used alongside a shield. The idea was mainly so admins could spawn in overpowered Space Romans - a small dagger in the autodrobe would be good too, I like that idea.

TheNightingale

Suggestion time... Raise the price of Security clothing crates from 30 to 35, and add the HoS's trenchcoat (the one they spawn with). Add a bulletproof helmet crate, requiring Armory access to open, costing 15 points, and containing three bulletproof helmets. Add ablative helmets! One in the Armory,...

TheNightingale

CITIZEN! Before we begin, I must make one thing quite clear! ROMANES EUNT DOMUS . The disappointing thing about being a member of the IMPERIAL LEGION... is that there's no armour. Also that your stuff never fits where you want it to. What we really need... is more Space Rome. A unique sword and set ...

TheNightingale

The difference, bandit, is that murder and assassination isn't graphic (byond 'his limbs flew off whoops'). This sort of torture is rather vivid.

TheNightingale

Carry a pair of zipties on you, strip their radio (leave it in their pocket) and bucklecuff someone to the nearest chair. Bam, instant two-minute sentence in the field.

TheNightingale

Silently disabling them during malf still allows people to meta 'not-malf'. "The posibrain booted up, so we know the APC was emagged", et cetera. Maybe: Malf ability (low cost): 'disable positronic brain network'. Stops posibrains working from then onwards; it doesn't affect any ghosts alr...

TheNightingale

Mediborgs/bots shouldn't be able to OD people on omnizine... but they should be able to heal people at least moderately effectively.
How about a chemical around halfway in between omnizine and salglu in effectiveness, which can be made in Chemistry and which mediborgs/bots start with?

TheNightingale

Special traitor Security, where they don't have any objectives but don't have to follow Space Law.

Be the Security this station deserves. Not the one they need.

Some Hitler removed eternal burning of borgs splashed with wielding fuel untill someone extinguishes them. Cant defeat secborg with just beaker of fuel and zippo anymore ;-;7 They're made of metal; they wouldn't take burn damage anyway, I'd expect. Though the idea of a borg stop-drop-rolling and no...

Yeah but nobody wants to play with the DM that tries to shove his half-god catgirl DMPC into every story.

TheNightingale

Assume it's a ~3 hour round and people sleep at 24:00; it should help with fitting it in for time zones.

TheNightingale

That's 02:00 GMT (UK time) tomorrow morning. Could someone save logs for me (or an in-depth summary) please?

TheNightingale

Ayyliums.

TheNightingale

Ripleys have six slots now, and uranium reactors are just as good. You know you want to.

TheNightingale

P.A.L.A.D.I.N is 'do the right thing'. If the Captain is running around shooting people, a Paladin AI could, in theory, doorcrush them (as to let them continue would be an evil act). You're thinking of T.Y.R.A.N.T, I think - 'respect authority figures so long as they're strong, and punish people who...

TheNightingale

When dealing with Asimov borgs - and AIs - as (effectively non-Asimov) Security, you have a few options: - Agree to the silicon's suggestion of 'don't forceborg them' and instead give them a choice - solitary in a straitjacket or 'voluntary' borging. If they say they volunteer in front of the AI, it...

TheNightingale

Note: the Reticence has a mounted RCD too.
Because it makes walls?
Get it?

TheNightingale

On that note, the Owl hardsuit helmet and Eagle helmet (the Owl is the hardsuit, the Eagle is the patriot spacesuit - FREEDOM) need built-in special voice changers, that change your voice to 'The Owl' and 'The Eagle' respectively. Be the superhero this station needs... without giving yourself away b...

TheNightingale

It's magic, we don't have to explain it.

TheNightingale

(Yes, I play research, now shush) The issue with R&D, in my opinion, isn't that it's quick, it's that it's all exactly the same. Either you follow a set path (e.g. lumi's handbook, my slightly more advanced guide) and complete R&D quickly, or you don't and you... still complete R&D, but ...

TheNightingale

The owl hardsuit is a reskin of the blood-red operative hardsuit, with wings in combat mode for all your *aflap needs.
(Yes, this means it can hold a live energy sword in suit storage. Or any gun.)

TheNightingale

Aren't haikus 5-7-5? 'It snows on Fuji' might work.

TheNightingale

But if they turn you into an antag, can't you valid everyone on the station? It's more tactically viable to let yourself be abducted.

TheNightingale

If you're using the teleporter circuit boards, it's probably just easier to decon a wormhole generator. Oh, well.
Though, maybe it could be made at the same time as a mecha syringe gun. Hm...

TheNightingale

And much to my dismay, it doesn't incinerate the body. It also breaks the suit storage unit, which is quite obvious to anyone passing by.

TheNightingale

You should've ran for headmin.

TheNightingale

I tried that once, but it wouldn't sync (and thereby unlock all the good tech). How do you go about syncing an exofab to the R&D console rather than the Robotics one?
