Nuker that ironman suit sounds like a bad idea, someone leaks how to make it and BLAM, instant abuse or something, we don't want to add dumb ideas.
Oh and if we have interserver teleporters, than I want interserver shuttles instead, so we can take a shuttle to a new station.

You should all be ashamed of yourselves.  The obvious solution is to chain the baby up at the entrance as a kobold detector.

We could just make it an admin only item, and admins could set up "Iron Man" role playing events.  :o

You could always make it admin only :P
Although I am not a huge fan of Iron man...


Besides, Qwerty posted a similar idea...a while ago. A super heavy suit that was almost invincible, but slowed movement to a super-slow speed.

Asked a while back, didn't notice if I got a response.

Does this inter-server teleport require the server being teleported to be the same codebase, or does it just need to have the teleporter code?
If it can be different code, how does it handle items that don't exist on the other side?

It was barely, if at all, related. The difference between a jet-propelled superhero and a futuristic commonplace hazardous environment maintainence exoskeleton, with no combat applications, that exists as an item that is worn by walking onto it's turf and exited by verb(unless the exit procedure has been tampered with).

Hmm...can someone explain to me how our round system works? I'm planning on implementing it in my own game, but I can't figure out how to make the world restart..

I don't think our round system should be customary, ie. SS13 or Cowed. I think rounds should last 24 hours at the very least, preferably week-long rounds.

And how long would the respawn time on this be?

world.Reboot()

Ah! So THAT'S what it was.
I kept searching for 'restart'.

I don't agree. A round that lasts 2 hours or more often suffers from npc'd players, blocking arrivals or hanging around where you'd least expect them, babbling about socks and magma. A 24 hour round would increase this 20-fold, and what if someone comes back after 8 hours, sees his character has been killed due to a pressure leak, and can't play for the next 10 - 12 hours? Or even a week? I think the system as it is now will not work with anything longer than a few hours, and changing the code so drastically that it enables week-long play without too many problems would make it a completely different game.

We had a 12 hour rounds recently.

At either rate!

After a short bout of inactivity, I return!
Huzzah! [Balrog. :3]
And I was wondering, why the devil is our server not online?!
