Cazdon Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/23440 Easily my favorite feature on TG is the ability for crew to ride on cyborgs. I want to try and port this feature myself, but considering it was added to TG over 2 years ago, it begged the question as to if this was already attempted. I'm making this post to gauge staff and player feelings on the subject. If people don't like it, or it can't/won't be approved for balance or for being too LRP or whatever the case is, I'd like to know before trying to port this feature. Thank you for your time! 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/16684-rideable-cyborgs-port-from-tg/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotz Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 This is amazing and we should port it immediately. I never realized until now how much I've wished I could ride a borgo bud into battle. Just think, sec could have it's own Calvary detachment, the Nanotrasen Mounted Police. We'd just need to sprite some little Mountie hats. Bonus points if the station pets can also ride the borgs. 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/16684-rideable-cyborgs-port-from-tg/#findComment-133096 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medi Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 We already have a few items and vehicles on the station but they're either job restricted or only gotten by the trader. I'm with McRamon, too memey in the long term.

Spacemanspark Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 I don't mind this, I think it could be quite useful and interesting, in contrast. 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/16684-rideable-cyborgs-port-from-tg/#findComment-133102 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaty Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 I also think this could be quite useful, But I would suggest it being some kind of upgrade.

This is a great idea, that way borgs could choose to opt in or not.

GutTC Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 I'd love that a lot. The two of flesh and synthetic unite their power into one. Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/16684-rideable-cyborgs-port-from-tg/#findComment-133112 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyOmaha Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 I think it should at least be an upgrade 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/16684-rideable-cyborgs-port-from-tg/#findComment-133116 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansari Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 Porting components require a certain amount of skills. I don't believe anyone's attempted porting it over. I personally don't mind having the rideable component. I've always dreamed of riding on a horse and running down traitors with my couched spear. 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/16684-rideable-cyborgs-port-from-tg/#findComment-133175 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinnikonnie Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 @Cazdon You just want an emaggable greytide borg right? I think the idea is ok, but make it an upgrade and maybe module-related mediborg/greytide borg. 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/16684-rideable-cyborgs-port-from-tg/#findComment-133178 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calecute Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 Aren't borgs slower than crew? Is not that useful, but i think it would be nice. 5 hours ago, Ansari said: Porting components require a certain amount of skills. I don't believe anyone's attempted porting it over.
