Roboticist, green, point 5: HoP doing human resources sounds fun, but I think that clause should not apply to civilians/greytide. They don't have a job or responsibility, borgs are slaved and if a borg is incompetent - then well, what can you do? Let's be serious - nobody is going to do a background/job check for people applying for cyborgification. I don't want borging to be a slow process. General idea: grenades outside RnD not permitted during green, but suddenly permitted in blue? Typically you'd want restrictions placed on normal crew (and bombs, especially) in blue to control the chaos and/or damage. Showing off your new funny (and harmless) grenade in green sounds okay to me, but it is in blue when Security is randomly searching people. It's much easier to control the crowd when you have a list of items they definitely shouldn't hold in that place. Since when do people running around with bombs make one's life easier? I mean - I could understand it in special circumstances (red, nukies, blob, whatever), but code blue is not an exception (and SoP often goes to hell in a crisis anyway) - it's a general alert that tells the crew that something's not quite right, and that they should stay vigilant and cooperate with authorities. IMHO bombs should definitely be kept locked in RnD in blue. Geneticist, rule about body doubles: well, no more multiple Bulmas. I am going to miss people with humanized monkey doubles. You sure we can't afford letting them have humanized monkey doubles? Sentient/intelligent/player-controlled doubles I fully understand, but this... sounds like taking away that tiny bit of creepy SS13 fun. Overall, this SoP is fair and cool. I'm surprised!

2. It has been tested on a few configurations. Independent tests on weaker configurations reported a higher CPU load. A question arose whether this is a fair comparison at all - and especially - how these results would translate into real-world situation perceptible lag. 3. CPU cycles are relevant here, because point 2. depends on it. We want to know what the perceptible lag would feel like, but it hasn't been tested. The PR was rejected on [standard] theoretical grounds that are being debated to this day in the form of CPU load, cycles and spikes. Granted, empirically speaking it'd be optimal to conduct a proper experiment that would account for all the variables. It's not going to happen, though.

Debatable. Emag can do so much more, and you need it anyway. It's your ultimate all-in-one combo. We don't need a niche noisy crowbar that takes time to open things. The only redeeming feature is that it looks like a crowbar.

That's... a very good line! I'm taking it. I agree with you on most (if not all) points. Yes. Dude, manchildren spoil everything!

Start with something easier. Start with engineering.

Wrong game.

One word: emag.

Agreed.

Admins here act swiftly and because of that some of their queries are unclear. If you stop and think "Well, this has gotten serious, let's cooperate" you will be treated fairly. It's a matter of attitude. Yes, the queries could be more clear IMO and they should not contain rhetorical questions. Clarity is very important. Toxic environment should be subject to policy. I don't want people to harass me over a game. LOOC is used mainly for OOC questions, quick job advice (when you lack information you ought to know) or some other minor stuff that doesn't involve insults or things that could've been better said IC (and roleplayed). Internet harassment brings real consequences. Hostile environments ruin your fun, and that's why assholes should not play on our server. If I wanted to have mud thrown at me, I'd play some LoL, DotA or other (semi-)competitive games.

What? Newspaper screens are basically everywhere. Access to wanted issues is as common as the access to the newspaper, as long as you're interested in read-only.

You mean... the crates that now have 1000 hit points?... No, that's too easy!

Arguably Shadey went a bit overboard with the calculations. Yes, you summed it up well in your last post.

Make them auto-regenerate/synthesize items - one item per 10 minutes, max cap as in vanilla.

Fuck Atmosia. Give power to the people, yo.

tl;dr One thing: binary star system, not dual-starred. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habitabil ... ar_systems

But of course.

You have to know CC's opinion first. That's why it's best to keep these stamps separate.

*cough* I use this role when I'm feeling validhunty or when I do not want the extra responsibility that comes from being in an actual command role. With this access you can freely roam the station. And if I can intervene when people are treated unfairly - that's doubly cool. I do believe that the stamp should be changed, though. If the NT Rep stamps it, it should be NT Rep's stamp on it. He's just one person with his own opinions. And when his opinions align with those of CC, then I guess he has papers to back that up.

Fax is black and white. It doesn't print colors, so the stamped papers [on the outside] are always grey.

Stop being biased, man.

I don't need that, I don't want that. Riots usually mean some degree of self-antagging. Riot gear doesn't really protect you from stuns during riots and riot gear = slow speed = unrobust. Considering the experience of our security forces, I'd say that riot gear only makes you a laughing stock. Newcomers may think gear is everything, but in this case it's more of a handicap. Fruerlund, it'd be cooler to finally reorganize our Bridge. I remember that fantastic design of yours.

Maybe have a generalised doctor that specializes in EVA first-aid? Oh wait, we do have one (albeit with shitty access)... he's called PARAMEDIC.

Traitors are basically 1 vs all of security. It must be fun being an underdog, eh? You'd think space terrorism would be better coordinated.

I'd make it a karma position, though. 5 KP, standard price. Perks? Give them a small medical room with only basic first aid supplies on Mining. And a medical hardsuit. I know why you want that job, I know it's inconvenient to save miners when you're just a station doctor, but I'm not sure if the place is right...

Epic convenience. Someone should implement it next.
