We know how to make them and they're useful, mainline production.

4 (33.3%)

They seem out of place and run rather counter to a fantasy setting, avoid them.

2 (16.7%)

Get outta here, nerd, nobody finds guns that interesting.

1 (8.3%)

Go ahead and have the NPCs make em, but not worth player input.

1 (8.3%)

Support, but they shouldn't be the standard weapons.

Well, it took me a good minute to understand what you said, but okay.

[chaotic skies]

So do we actually have a plan here guys? Or are we still in "Make sure nothing important implodes or something" mode?

Pretty much the latter.

[chaotic skies]

Alright. Just wanted to make sure I hadn't missed something.

[LordPorkins]

Isnt that always our plan?

[chaotic skies]

Well I'd like to do more than deal with whatever horrors Amp throws at us, but yeah. Pretty much.

[Amperzand]

And I would like you to as well. Makes things far more interesting.

[chaotic skies]

This is why we need a plan. ATM tho, I think we're kind of busy. Maybe just a little.

See, this is why I don't play Factorio or Cataclysm or Starcraft or anything else needing some amount of basic planning. I'm terrible at actually trying to make a plan

[Amperzand]

If you guys are having enough trouble keeping up with what's going on that you don't have time to make plans, I'll willingly avoid causing further chaos to let you organize.

[chaotic skies]

It's not that I'm having trouble keeping up, it's that I don't know where to begin. IRL School should probably be first, though.

tbf you did just blow up the plan i had running, and the rest of my work has basically been "attempt to upgrade fortress population to be less useless and potentially riot-y"

[Amperzand]

Overwhelmingly so. There's a reason my update schedule is so unreliable.

For knowing where to begin, I'd try more in-character information gathering.

Basically, unless somebody's actively trying to figure out the situation, my updates are dramatized and ambiguous, as if everyone involved was justifiably panicking, rather than giving a calm, objective description of events. If your characters do more to understand what's happening, it feels more right to give you information.

If I did so, it was not intentional, nor did I really notice. Please clarify?

Have I mentioned I'm not especially good at this?

[Chevaleresse]

Idk, it was sort of implied that the storage room is kinda not a viable thing, not to mention the sheer amount of magic in the air making stuff a bad idea right now.

[Amperzand]

Oh, right. :V

Basically, the storage room is usable, but not as secure as it could be with another week of work. Suckerbait step in the construction, you see.

The magic in the air will go down soon enough, especially if people use it for stuff, like reinforcing containment cells.

You can't do much right now, because you're in the middle of a disaster, but said disaster will be over, if not forgotten, within a couple of meatspace days.

[Amperzand]

Add one to the faildop counter.

I apologize, I've been having some unusual, unrelated issues lately. Should be functional tomorrow.
