Yeah. I miss the low constant paranoia of the solar panels.

Basically, all engies do is stare at numbers, get yelled at for not coming at value packs of 20, and swap light tubes.

Solar Panels? I think Grakelin was referring to when the engine was a giant fireball in the center of the station, those were the days..

To be fair you can now inject plasma into light tubes.

Yeah. Don't do it. I was on when you discovered that you can.

Anyways, made a topic over on the forums about solar panels. Come tell me to STFU!

Afraid not, although honestly if you pop on the server and say that you're new then it'd be a far better experience for you.

I did. I entered as unassigned and make my way up to HOS. ...not quite legally, but by roleplaying.

I have to say i played this game a year back or so and it improved greatly. (Byond is still shitthy and drags the game a bit down.)
For me, the speaking bubbles helped a lot. It could be better thoug if they showed up the moment you start typing shoving three dots and after you press enter, they would show the whole text. ...would it be hard to make?

[Rakonas]

speech bubbles

Wait, what? Since when have there been speech bubbles?

[head]

He means the small bubbles that show when you talk. (!)(?)(..) ones i added a while ago.

Yes, those are great. The problem is they show after you wrote your sentence, not while you're typing. If you want to stop somebody on the move he will walk past you in a one or two seconds not nearly enough to talk to him.

I don't remember there being any other windows in the bar, are there?

That's a limitation of Byond. There's currently no fast way to determine who should hear what you are saying, so the Byond guys resorted to a simple solution: anyone who can see you hears you. It's not the best way to do things, but it's faster ingame than us computing who can hear.

hearers(Depth=world.view,Center=usr)
This is just like viewers(), but it is a list of mobs that can hear the center object. Currently, this is computed on the assumption that opaque objects block sound, just like they block light.

Not quite, you might (haven't tested) be able to hear through darkness that would normally impede sight. Probably also differences with invisibility and other sight affecting variables likely being ignored.

That isn't true, because a cap was able to listen in on a conversation between me and another on the bridge with a wall between us. I saw him with thermals.

He probably had thermals too.

[Vertigon]

Okay, I'm scared, but I'm going to try this.

[Ioric Kittencuddler]

Come dance with us GIR... Dance with us into oblivion!!!

[Xanatos Jr.]

Dancin' weenies, woo.

Epic round was it not?
