Apparantly some guys over at #coderbus are working on an overhaul of medbay.
Highlights (so far) include:
Less powerful bruisepacks and ointments
Medibots aren't better doctors anymore.
Bruisepacks are powerful?!
Another idea for a round:
Station has been abandoned for nobody knows how long. A ship full of scavengers comes across it and decide to investigate, get some loot and shit to sell. Thing is, station is full of dangers. Zombies roam the halls, Carp fill the Bar, Pirates control the Engine or whatever. Point is, the scavengers aren't totally defenseless. Admins spawn them equipment sets for people based on their job or "class". We get a few people with heavy weapons, maybe a flamethrower, a guy or two with a full kit of electrical tools, at least one medic, and whatever else would work (Xenobiologist maybe, for RP reasons? I'd love to do that)
You know that's pretty much already a mode called "Derelict".
A lot of people hate it because it's brutal as all hell; you're given a fire suit and gas mask, along with medical kit, toolbox, and O2 tank, and are expected to make it through the station with zero pressure or temperature without dying.
It's usually messy, and heavily based upon luck. Not to mention laggy.
Looks like it. I was AFK. I wonder if it's due to the fact that powersinks and infinite cells don't mix well.
So during a round we were discussing the possibility of a RP for the characters of Futurama. I suggested doing it when its less populated. If anyone IS interested, we can have a huge party with everyone's favorite Sci-Fi cast in SS13
Would it be possible to let round ends be extended to 60 seconds instead of 25?
Server is updated and back up
Now if we could get Android to update git. Please, Android. Merge.
Idea for a gamemode lovingly ripped from somewhere else. I think it would work just fine with SS13, though.
Basically, everyone who isn't a head or security officer has been poisoned, and in order to not die they have a target they must kill. No two people will have the same target, and heads and security are not targets so it will basically form a loop. As players kill their victims (or their victims otherwise die), they gain back the damage they lost to the poison and take the victim's target as their own, until there is one person left.
The heads and security officers, on the other hand, basically have to find a way to stop the bloodshed and find a way to provide an antidote to the poison.
It doesn't necessarily have to be a poison, but anything that slowly ticks away at the player's health would provide them heavy impetus to kill their target quickly, since they become not only less able to hunt their target but more likely to be easily killed by the person hunting them.
Are you pulling updates from the tgstation git code?
EDIT: What I'd really like though, is having the ability to cuff feet to slow people down. That would allow sec to apprehend people as well as give the cuffed person a chance if a disaster occurred. The way it is now you're absolutely helpless if you're cuffed.
