Re: The Ideas Thread
The ability to refer to items with the same identifying noun by their place in the IH/II list would be really nice.
For example:
PROBE BARREL
PROBE BARREL.2
REMOVE GAUNTLETS
WEAR GAUNTLETS.2
For example:
PROBE BARREL

Re: Broken Calls
No obvious bugs in the code to indicate that they're always succeeding. I made some tweaks a little bit ago to the org log to note a) who made the call, and b) what the support/oppose totals were, so we'll see how things turn out when the next calls resolve themselves.
One idea I am pondering for the future is maybe having calls need a minimum vote or influence count to pass, regardless of the yay/nay ratio. Makes it a little more about "the will of the people" and a little less "let's try and sneak in to a position so I can rob the faction".

Re: Engineer QoL
A small QOL tweak, I removed the part cost from constructing a workstation, preventing people from being in a vicious cycle of needing parts but not being able to make a workstation.

Re: Roleplay (Insanity) - Who is Your Character
Adding to this, I would like to see a bit less of this:
(Celestine): Name redacted says, "I ended up going Fury, and it's certainly complicated."
(Celestine): Someone else says, "Yeah. I'll need to get more lessons."
Please ... contextually this makes absolutely no sense to say IC. You need to get more lessons for what? More piano lessons? More singing lessons? Are you scheduling these in? And what do you mean you 'went' Fury ... You are a Fury. Stahp.

Re: Death penalty
Just for the record, cloning doesn't get more expensive when you die, that number is just for your own amusement. It does, however, scale on your level.
As for the cost itself, it will likely need tweaks, like pretty much everything. Now that we're getting a lot of "real world" data about mark generation from the usage of a lot of players, we can adjust the prices to be more fitting.

ID cards, with preformatted text that you can manipulate in certain ways. So if you want to wear a badge that shows everyone you're affiliated with the Hercule Mining Corp, you can.
Body mods. Piercings, tattoos, more exotic stuff like claws, catgirl ears, bioluminescent body paint, etc.
Let BEASTs give their suits a paint job!

Re: Roleplay (Insanity) - Who is Your Character
Even in Achaea people say stuff like this all the time on CT. It drove me nuts, but it was so ingrained in the 20 year old game, I felt like I couldn't change it, so I just got used to it. Maybe we'll be able to foster a more RP centric environment in this game. I certainly hope so.Kestrel said:Adding to this, I would like to see a bit less of this:

I do appreciate the need to talk about stuff like this sometimes, and I think ooc clans are a great solution. Because when you want total immersion, you can just tune them out. But when you need to discuss mechanics, you have a forum to do that.

Roleplay (Insanity) - Who is Your Character
There seems to be an overly large amount of OOC communication happening on IC channels. This very jarring for people who like to create characters and immerse them in the world that's been (is being created). I understand that this is launch but can we not have people fighting to the death over 'rats'? What kind of person is your character that everything your character decides to kill you will instantly fight to the death for it? That can work as a character trait, without a doubt... but is that your character? Is your character the type of person who -would- fight to the death? Or are they more careful and cunning, or maybe more laid back? Who is your character - or are we playing Call of Duty Text Warfare?

Re: Roleplay (Insanity) - Who is Your Character
I agree that there's been a too heavy reliance on 'well some things from Earth are remembered.' Like yea there would be some remaining knowledge but I can't think of much from literature or art from the late 8th century CE that I can reference from memory.
Edit: For context, Beowulf is at least 200 years more recent to me than a book written this year would be to our characters and I sure as shit can't read old English.
