New heist gamemode.

That's not news (the OP's from March), someone just necro'd that thread.

Still, I guess some people hadn't heard yet. Honestly, I find that the least interesting of the gamemode changes - the antagonist rework itself is far more interesting. No longer shall badminnery be required to make an 'ALL THE ANTAGS' round. Tater is sooper stealthy? Woop woop, add antagonist vote, say hello to a pirate raid, or newcops, or lings.

You may want to look into porting /tg/'s new Gang mode, which started out as double rev but has become much more and is pretty fun.

I am, actually, except it's kinda pointless to port any modes right now based on the Urist code considering we're overdue for a Bay merge - but since so is Bay, we're waiting for them to merge the freeze so that we don't have to go through the hassle twice.

And that very merge refactors how antagonist code works. So porting it now means porting it twice - once from tg to Urist, then from old antag code to new one. I could base it off of Bay dev-freeze, I suppose, but I have maintenance work to do on Vamp first, plus a fuckload of ideas lately.

Last time I posted it, it got swamped in S-COM and wasn't already in I think. Plus people don't look as often at 'old necro'd thread'

We're not putting the special magic mirror in our ERT, right?

I'unno, been a long time. Goes live in the update Bay has yet to merge, so it's not in there either.

Oh, another super neat thing coming in the update: 2sexy lighting rewrite.

E: There's also a fun new feature that is super easy to miss if you don't know it was added. Buckling is refactored to be handled by objects, some objects act same as now, but you can also buckle people to pipes if - and only if - you handcuffed them, and IIRC buckling people to HOT pipes will be... unpleasant to the victim.

[miauw62]

That reminds me that there was a bug where people buckled to pipes could try to move and it would put them inside the pipe, then allow them to ventcrawl to freedom.

No Inviolate heist? Well I guess heist will soon become as infamous as new cops on Urist, as of now it is already a huge grey area of how much Vox can do and people still rage.

During Heists, at least this month, I hadn't really seen people raging at the Vox. Unless it was a random village idiot who went lel kill errything.

By the way, pacifist ops is an interesting potential gimmick. Not stealthops - go loud, just use stunguns and cuffs, supplemented with sleepypens and sonics and whatnot.

I would like to thank everyone for their support in giving me the "best clown" award, I accept this honor with humility and thanks.

[Aseaheru]

Did you manage to be a non-aggravating clown?

[IcyTea31]

A bad clown is annoying.
A good clown is funny.
A great clown is madness and fear incarnate.
The best clown is...?

[KingofstarrySkies]

Dead.

Just you wait until that one player finishes spriting my clownborgs.

Player who indirectly asked The Owl where the fungus was: I was looking for you as The Owl with a note explaining the situation, but my game bugged out before I could find you. The Owl might see all and have various other mighty powers, but it is no match for BYOND. No superhero is.

I would like to give Stef infinite thanks for driving away the evil Lord Melon, and saving us all.
