A prox N2O bomb I made vanished when triggered. Just Beep-Beep and it was gone. No gas, no nothing. I'm not sure if it was welded. I think so.

EDIT: I also heard something about AdminBot. What's the joke?

If it was welded, nothing should happen. N2O isn't explosive.

Shouldn't inert gas still leak from welded bombs? All welding does is disable backflash protection.
Also, I said the bomb VANISHED without exploding.

[quinnr]

Yes that is normal. Weird, but normal.
Welding = for explosion
Skip welding = gas leak + fire

[Matz05]

I know it's normal, but its still unintended (right?)

[Cajoes]

I don't know anything about Adminbot, but I had the suspicion he wasn't going to return my id. I also assassinated the monkeys by half opening a wall and opening a door. They all got slammed into the wall. Then I buckled myself in a chapel chair and broke the windows.

AdminBot is simply the stand-in for the HoP when the station is crumbling towards its end (usually ten seconds into the session) It punches cards and scares people shitless with its inhuman behaviour (IE: it doesn't attack you. Or shout for security. Or try to turn you into a monkey. Or force drugs down your throat. Or arrest you on sight... And always wishes you a nice day.) and nothing else. Otherwise we'll just have a whole arrival shuttle full of dead and or dying assistants.

No clue...I think its because gas doesn't normally need to be released in an explosion. Things are dead anyways.

[Matz05]

Is AdminBot a person or an NPC? A person right?

Deleted self first?

Except that that shouldn't happen.

The last thing that bombs should do is delete themselves, so maybe that bomb had such a low power that it *should* have survived, but didn't?

Also:

"Here at CentCom, we respect the religion of your local chaplain. As such, we have fitted the chapel with equipment for all major religions, real or imaginary.
Both a cremation room and a mass driver have been provided, so that you may use whatever suits your religion, as well as enough spare coffins for a station of vampires, if that is what you want. We have also included a general-purpose altar, for both holy and unholy uses. If any corpse leaves a mess, a closet of cleaning supplies is available by the entrance. Finally, there are four general-purpose private rooms, use to be decided by your chaplain.

Here is a preliminary mockup. Most furnishings and such have yet to be added, but rest assured that they will be present on the actual station."

Yes, we sat down and programmed a fully sapient heuristic Eliza module that can process ID cards. Instead of getting the atmospherics physics down to a T.*

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

*It's me. In a cheap robot costume. When I don't feel like roleplaying anything with a personality.

[Matz05]

Expected as much. NPC HOPS would be doable, but the chatbot problem would be annoying. Maybe an AI controled kiosk?

Costume give any benefits? good armour?

[quinnr]

I know the devs were thinking about a job kiosk...maybe one that only gave not taken jobs? Anything else would require an HoP/cap.

It's always been like that....

Half-decent, can take at least a few blows with a pickaxe to it before its wearer crumbles. But intense temperatures seems to cause it to dissolve. But then again, so does most items in this game. It does not come with a helmet however.

This is a lovely chapel.. No.. Cathedral.

I should sprite some stained glass reinforced windows.

[Matz05]

Pickaxes? Ive seen some spawned but... WHAT THE HECK do we need pickaxes for?


(Incoming mining arc?)

[beorn080]

Possible mining arc. Also, i was about to say that the job kiosk shouldn't give out the dangerous jobs, then I remember my antics as a lawyer and chuckle about the idea of nondangerous jobs.
