As much as the prison staion is close to my heart, it just got mined out and replaced with one working radio on a killer station while ailens vs preds have an epic fight while the humans try to hold them off with assault rifles and night vison. If this were to happen i would recomend jobs that start on the mineing place i.e mining captain, miner, refiner, smelter, saftey advisor, mine firefighter and other cool as stuff. DO IT I WILL LOVE YOU FOR EVER.

EDIT: And this game would look awsomely like dead space

[Pillow_Killer]

Would the game run smoother if you removed the entire prison station?

Nope.

I've never seen anyone sent to the prison station. Ever.

The prison station DOES give me an excuse to throw people out the airlock in the brig.

"Where's Ronkiv"
"I sent him to the prison station"
"Oh OK."

Technically true. TraseNet approves of your honesty.

Yes i think i remember that happening to me once.

I was the captain.  I was locked up and thrown into the prison station, but nobody was banned for it because the admins were the ones to lock me up.  All it is is only a very sophisticated form of grief.

Probably because it needs an actual staffing.  People drop off prisoners and leave them there.

There used to be three prison staff occupation choices too.  Prison Warden, Prison Security Officer, and Prison Medical Doctor.

First, Head, to fix Window's updates problems, go to the update manager, and play with that. What I did was download it when I wasnt using the computer, took a couple hours on my connection, but it was out of the way, nethertheless.


Also, to make the prison station viable, just simply make the shuttle arrive faster. The real problem, is that it takes forever to get there. 30 seconds is a good enough time frame to get from A-B. Also, Prison needs to have "auto running" solar panels, so AI doesnt get spammed with power alerts.


The basic problem is that the prison station is too distant from the actual station. It needs to be more integrated. Simply reducing the shuttle time helps.

Mass drivers can send a mob past the prison station, correct? Perhaps a catch arm to snag lockers launched from the brig that contain high end prisoners who shouldn't go back on the escape shuttle, but whom we don't want to execute, which should be everyone. There should be a way back, and with the ladders we could probably make some form of break in on one of the maintenance tunnels while still keeping direct access impossible.

And orb, no, that doesn't work. This is a Vista problem. It downloads automatically, then at a random time pops up and says "Hi, click here to delay for 10min/1hour/4hours. If you don't click, we'll reset in 5 minutes." Naturally if your trying to run a server, it just reboots.

Server comeing up.

I SEE NO POSSIBLE WAY THIS COULD GO WRONG

[Ozyton]

Something I forgot to mention. When people are 'braindead' you could add something to when you examine them (similar to the "their eyes are closed as if sleeping")

Though, it's easy to tell who's braindead anyways just when they talk... but still...

As for the "nothing can go wrong" that's why it's only used for prisoners... I guess.

Hmm, I own Vista, and I dont get that. Maybe my settings are differant, or something. The problem with mine is that my connection is slow, so downloading automatically isnt fun.

Also, something can go wrong with every device on the station. Thats the point of the game.

Security Officer: "Alright, the high-security prisoner that we need you guys to interrogate is coming your way."
Prison Engineer: "But the power to the claw's out!"
Security Officer: "...oh shit."
Prison Engineer: "Aaaaaaaand there he goes."

Call it situational if you will, but it's hella funny.
