"Is it good RP to taze someone just because they are wearing a mask?"

Thats why you come up with a backstory and a set of laws, it helps the RP. Even if its something stupid like a centcom terrorist threat, it would help the RP

Yes.  We really do need that, the RP is suffering heavily.  If I were to try to RP, it would be impossible, because everyone's ideas about everything is different.

A few things off the top of my head.

Laser weapons are for use in station defense only.
The AI Laws are not to be changed by any personell without the majority of the station approving.
Due to terror alerts gasmasks and other masks that hide the face are only to be used in the event of an emergency.
Oxygen tanks should not be taken unless needed. To insure that there are enough to go around.

The funny thing is, laser weapons suck. They don't go through glass anymore, they aren't a quick kill, and unless the guy is tasered they can dodge pretty easy.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

Flashbangs are the only weapon I ever use. Flash them, then beat/tazer/cuff

Interesting:
Despite what past mappers would have me believe, instancing an area IS a viable technique.

I guess that they should still be hardcoded, at least the categories, and anything that must be refrenced by type in the code, but the admin jump command distinguished between the bridge area and the backup bridge instance...

AIs:

How do they operate? The three laws seem woefully insufficent for any number of situations.

For example: Zombies. They look human, sound human, and lurch around like humans. One drooling idiot makes little difference from another. Am I still inclined to attempt to hinder them? Or do I open the escape shuttle doors for them, half-wondering why that sickly greenish yellow survivor is eating his fellow crewmens brains.

And does it respond to -just- the three laws or does Nanotrasen get a say in the matter? It is after all their thirty trillion investment. For example, blatant and flagrant abuse and waste of company resources. (Breathing air)

And how does it identify fires? If you snip the atmospheric alarms and the fire-alarm you might as well wave orange coloured cellophane in front of the camera for all the good it will do you.

Is it truly sapient or just a very advanced bot?

And let's not get started on every Joe, John and Jane going into the AI upload and tweaking the law set on a darn whim...

It's people like you that caused the first two AI wars!

I saw you logged in, and you were banned for multikeying.

What were you banned for originally?

My reason for banning is:
"So many things"

I logged off for the night, I'll log back in and see what I can do...if it's an IP ban, you might need the host to do it though.
