Midaychi Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyGDxglTVgA&NR Based on this? These are tanks constructed from mig-21 fighter engines that annihilate fires with high speed by blowing water with the exhaust. I'm sure atmosia could cobble something smaller scale together on the station. An Air-pressure powered, rideable multi-passenger tank with fire-fighting pneumatic pressurized fire suppression water nozzles. You'd have to load gas canisters and water tanks into it to use as fuel. Maybe make it like a cargo train, and each unit has its own side mounted water gun? Or just make it a single seater with a big air-accelerated water turret I guess.

Fj45 Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Been thinking about something like this for atmos for a while, it would be perfect for fighting huge plasma fires.

Midaychi Posted June 21, 2014 Author Posted June 21, 2014 Potential design theory 1: Like a cargo train but with custom sprites, and you'd need at least three total cars. While in motion, the train automatically opens doors and firelocks it runs into and closes them behind the last car. The front car has a large turret cannon that has an epic sounding windup phase, and fires a large suppression gout. At least two other cars must be used; one must be loaded with a liquid tank of some sort (Water if you're trying to put it out, welding if you're trying to keep it going) and one canister (Chilled Nitrogen would probably be most effective for putting out a fire). Any further cars can also be loaded for extra fuel, OR be ridden. If a player is riding a car, it gains a turret sprite, and they are able to use a rapid fire smaller version of the main cannon. Firing the cannons uses pressure and liquid. People caught in the blast of the main cannon can be knocked over.

Eldrin-Kanthos Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 I want this just to see antags using liquid fuel and plasma gas.

TheDemonic Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 This would be awesome because currently fire extinguishers really don't do much to any fire and just locking it down and draining the air is by far the best way of doing it.

Fj45 Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Agree, there really needs to be another way to extinguish fires without just pulling air.
