Fairly certain this is a side effect from the fact that we re-create every limb when species changes, sending all damage to the void, which is definitely an oversight

I'll give a peek at this, I've been wanted to make a tool for this for ages anyways.

Anyone's free to add more intermittent spells, just ping me over it and we can talk. I have some ideas of my own around. Re: "easier earlygame and harder lategame pls", also not opposed to this - if someone wants to go through and make the earlier nodes cheaper and later notes more expensi...

I don't entirely agree on making maps compact and stacked. While you ARE adding vertical interaction, you don't get to see any of it within the department. Tram for example - Medbay is still 1z. Engineering is still 1z. Those departments would function identically if they were placed on a 1z map tha...

What if all of them deleted upon drop rather then just a few of them Drop your I win gun and the threat is gone At that point you're either A. Suggesting a code change (One I don't necessarily agree with, why would we "balance" something over the Christmas tree. Also this is policy discus...

Double-posting to share my own opinion: Dumb idea. Will just massively derail the round even more than it already does. Doesn't let anyone else enjoy their presents and results in everyone rushing down one guy for free antag.

Multiple people in the past have gotten banned for mass murder (>3 kills) with an instagib rifle on Christmas.

Nah but for real a different low-threat sink would be really nice instead of infinite Traitors.

We had that, it was called "thieves", a lot of people disliked it and called it a waste of threat

I like zxaber's suggestion a lot, and I like blackdav123 suggestion a lot as well. I actually was going to enforce it mechanically - I was going to make it so being sacrificed gave you a phobia of heretics / the guy who sacrificed you, so that you couldn't snitch at all, but I didn't want to untangl...

I'm inclined to agree that relying on the flavor text to manage this system is unfeasible. I dislike the idea that coders are no longer allowed to design antagonists around memory loss. Abductors have been using it for over five years. Abductees are not allowed to snitch on the ayys that abducted t...

I'm not really interested in reverting the baseline behavior to gibbing. However someone suggested it gets turned into a config so the admins can change it on a server to server basis which I'm not opposed to. It doesn't change the balance of heretics that much, as heretics are already free to maul ...

A word from our company engineers:

- Exposing the supermatter to space is a bad good idea
- Pluoxium creation consumes CO2
- Standard gas reactions do not consume any gas
- The supermatter will last forever - assuming your mix is stable

I went on Bee as a Moth named Soup for multiple rounds not too long ago. Everyone loved it and I heard not a peep of issue from anyone. This was in their enhanced roleplay environment. Their naming guidelines are also pretty fantastic: https://wiki.beestation13.com/view/Naming_Guidelines > Names co...

I liked it better when the bottom level was immune to the nuke. Seeing half the crew dash for a ladder or hope the pod lands on the third floor was fun.

Here's some (ugly) graphs (data courtesy of mothblocks) for roundstart vs latejoin revolution ruleset executions in the last ~4 months. Bagil: 8 Provocateur, 0 Revolution Terry: 135 Provocateur, 53 Revolution Sybil: 199 Provocateur, 61 Revolution Manuel: 58 Provocateur, 5 Revolution (<-- Note that t...

We disabled latejoin revs on MRP for like 2 months and I don't think we got a single revolution round (outside of admin forced) at all for the entire duration of that time We should really like blackbox executed rulesets or something, MB is the only person I know who can scrape all that dynamic info.

The MMI test is the equivalent to the burning blood test in The Thing, and should be allowed. If we wanted a test like this, it should codified as an actual mechanic, and not a byproduct of janky code ("The brain violently rejects the MMI" or something, instead of the default message) We ...

Wesoda has retired once again.

On the eve before term handover, Wesoda25 retires once again.

Give Lings an alert box when their brain is put in an MMI that lets then talk through it

Funnily enough I have lowered the weight of provocateur on the MRP dynamic config twice

Yeah the worm code is held together with sticky tape. I encourage people to look into improving it

Sorry, but the headmin team doesn't really have any intention on overturning or reducing this ban. We think you not only overstepped the bounds of rule 11 with your insults directed towards another player (specifically, using multiple slurs directly intended to demean the other party - doubling down...

Responded to my CC Messages with Subtle Message instead of Headset Message, completely ruining my immersion & captain roleplay. Worst centcom commander ever.

I don't know about other people, but when I'm a traitor I like to cause the chaos myself. I don't want to call in 2 heavy midrounds to screw the station for me, I want to screw the station myself. Like, all triggering a blob does is threaten to end the round. Why would I want that, if I wanted to ge...

If you get an objective to steal the station blueprints, you can take a picture of them with a camera. Stealing the resulting photo counts for success. Of course, this is less relevant now with progression traitors being their own thing and thieves being removed, but there are still changelings (and...

Wearing a human skin suit will protect you from being gibbed by Ei Nath / Smite / Disintegrate once.

My personal two cents is while I think very relaxed escalation makes sense (killing people to spread romerol, for example) allowing full murderbone will just see traitors running down the halls with 60 tc full of equipment deswording random bystanders' heads off off with zero interaction, which is l...

You can squeeze hearts by using them in hand to make them start beating again. Abductor Advanced Batons, on probe mode, will reveal if the target is a changeling. If you are blind, and have Monophobia, you will always gain the worst effects of it. Suiciding with a toy mech will make it stronger in f...

Rageguy505 has also passed their candidacy and was promoted to Trial Admin.

I was on board with them when they were first merged, but as they've been "optimized" over the past few months I am much less fond of them now. A big issue I have with it is that every traitor is now a round ending threat, and that leaves almost no leeway to give them as security. I used t...

Hi. I was the banning admin, and this ban is of indeterminate length (Permanent, appealable in a year). I understand that you didn't personally spark any of the drama, and I apologize that a lynch mob incited this whole event. As Hulk said, some of the folk involved in stirring the pot have been tal...

If you're clearly only playing the game to play antagonist, you aren't enjoying the game for what it is. Antag bans for antag rollers are a good way to "suggest" they learn or experience a new aspect of the game than only playing antagonist. If they don't even connect a single day while an...

We've decided to extend iwishforduck's trial by one month.

Introduction Some of you may remember that last term, the headmins threw out a potential space law rewrite into the forums, found Here . This term, I plan on going through and adjusting our current version of space law. Space Law is quite dated and I believe it needs a good bit of modernization to ...

Striders13 has been promoted to Game Admin!

Promoted!

We're going to be reducing the duration of the ban (effectively meaning you will be unbanned by the time of posting (well, shortly after posting)). We deliberated on this ban for a while, and found there was a decent amount of potential for confusion and miscommunication that led to this ban being p...

blah blah you're full of crap melbert From a player perspective I think it's a shame because I'd like to play it more, but from a headmin perspective I both recognize the dubiousness of Kilo and also like to listen to the maptainers so I hold no strong opinions. (I also slightly helped set the pop ...

I like Kilo, it's a shame Manuel never dips below 40 pop to play it.

The PR that allows you to remove rust from walls gave bored people a huge undertaking to do. I always de-rust my department when I'm bored. Creates a look of Kilo in its prime.

Some additional context for the first warning:

The post in question was made within a policy discussion thread. Not only was it encouraging rule breaking, but it was off topic, and made in a place of serious discussion.
