Well i just got Beaten to death, by an asshole captain, for trying to save someones life by bashing in a window to save them.

And it will burn like that because there is no airflow, and the game requires a change before it will even process a fire.

Changing
if (T.updatecell && T.update_again)

to
if (T.updatecell && (T.update_again || T.firelevel >= 100000.0 || T.burn))

Should fix most or all of it.

Otherwise, it could also be a turf linkage issue, and in that case, check with the host, they may be messing with something.

If you open the shutters, it should trigger a change and cause a spread.

[quinnr]

There is no airflow made by opening the shutters.

[vagel7]

It seems that it will cover the whole room when a player sees it or comes in contact,then you open the doors,it covers,when you open a door it covers and when you tele there then it also covers.

[zchris13]

If you teleport there, it should explode.

Also, why does plasma hurt zombies?

[qwertyuiopas]

Sight does nothing.

However, a player's presence(most likely breath) will trigger an air calculation, and in such an odd circumstance, it will cause a chain reaction.

That is why I reccomend my fix, as it forces fires to burn, eliminating the most apparent problem.

[Rakonas]

I think zombies identification message should be changed..
It's currently 'got a dull lifeless look in their eyes' but this prevents zombies from playing dead in most cases. (different from is limp and unresponsive, a dull lifeless look in their eyes.) The zombie is obviously limp and unresponsive if it's unconscious, don't you think?
Unless you don't want zombies playing dead, which I'd understand.

[Cthulhu]

Zombies playing dead would be awesome.

That should be an option, in fact.

Also, if a human is killed while infected they should be able to get up later as a zombie.  It kind of sucks to have a zombie beat you to death instead of turn you.

[quinnr]

How about this:
Zombies get the same description as dead.
+
AI gets a law uploaded saying that zombies are not human.


Even if not, the AI really needs a law saying if zombies are or are not human.

[Rakonas]

Definitely agree with both of those. Can't stand stupid zombies that continue beating someone to death after they're infected and ruining it for the zombie race.

Code: [Select]

/mob/proc/zombie_bit(var/mob/biter)
if(zombie || becoming_zombie || !is_living())
return
if(stat > 1)//dead: it takes time to reverse death, but there is no chance of failure
sleep(50)
zombify()
return
for(var/mob/M in viewers(src, null))
if ((M.client && !( M.blinded )))
M << "[biter.name] bites [name]"
if(prob(5))
zombify()
else if(prob(5))
becoming_zombie = 1
src << "You feel a strange itch"
sleep(200)
if(becoming_zombie)
zombify()
else if(prob(5))
becoming_zombie = 1
src << "You faintly feel a strange itch"
sleep(400)
if(becoming_zombie)
src << "You feel a strange itch, stronger this time"
sleep(200)
if(becoming_zombie)
zombify()
That is a 14% chance overall.

Further, the zombify() proc restores life regardless if they are dead or not.

Also, if the zombie just continues one attack after killing them, they are guarenteed to succeed.

So, the only time it fails is when the person is already a zombie.

So, zombies: They can become a zombie any time after you start attacking, with no indication. So: STOP ATTACKING IF THEY ARE A ZOMBIE.
If you kill them *before* they transform, they will get back up and join you, but if you *mindlessly* continue ot attack, you are killing off your allies!

Look at their skin. If it matches yours, stop before you ruin the game for them and you!

[Rakonas]

As a rule for zombies figuring out whether or not someone else is a zombie.
If they're carrying nothing, examine them first, they're probably zombie.
 If they are carrying something, or their skin is exposed and clearly healthy, bite them.

Still banned.......

[Mono124]

Micro.... you grief so much. Seriously, I have gotten hate spams over OOC because your name and my name are very similar. I highly doubt you will get unbanned.
