God drat I am such a jerk, but I did not expect this to work. Was going to deep fry myself but a changling busts in and acid spits me, drags me into the freezer next to the gibber for a quiet absorb. However I did not think suiciding while being choked out would let me climb into the gibber.

Hahaha awesome. Reminds me of when I was being a jerk and was killing the HoP beside a pod, even though he was stunned he was able to board the pod and flllyyyy awayyy. That sucked.

There's quite a few ways to commit suicide now. Used to be your only options were the russian revolver, a shard of glass, or holding your breath. If you're bored and want to end a round in style, try suiciding while holding random objects in your active hand, or standing next to a contraption.

Speaking of the russian revolver, I actually miss the days where you could survive shooting yourself in the head. It'd be funny if you could have a small chance of surviving, albeit with lots of brute and massive brain damage. The chances go up the more bath salts you have in your system. :unsmigghh:

We need a list of all the ways to off yourself in a boring round of SS13. Starting with the command suicides and working up to the creative ones.

HEY, WHAT'S HAPPENING? :)
Now, I spend a lot of time on roleplay servers (:ohdear:) which, when they actually run antagonist-having modes, are actually really fun. I've been thinking, with all the great stuff we have on goonstation, it seems like a lot of it would only work best in a roleplaying environment. Or, at least, they would be fun in such an environment. For example, the weightlifting in the gym. The chaplain's entire role. Email, money-production and so on.

I know goonstation isn't going to go open source any time soon, and that's far enough. A lot of people have put a lot of work into making the current build what it is, and it's fair that they want creative control over the future of it. But, I would spend cash-money on a server being hosted that had (and I'll get reamed for this) something approaching Bay12's ridiculous RP rules. They are...I don't know, it's a weird kind of fun. Apollo is awful, but the people on bay seem to be alright. Is there any likelihood on such a server ever existing, with the goonstation build?

To an extent, people roleplay on goonstation. People play their roles rather than metagaming (at least overtly), avoid referencing out-of-game things for the most part, etc. That's why you see them doing things like using the aforementioned gym. It's admittedly a lot sillier generally, with things like the chaplain running around declaring this and that to be sinful or claiming to hear the void of God, but it's still a form of roleplaying. (Also the chaplain's actually useful against vampires and wizards, but that's not really relevant to your main point.)

I think you're understating the quality of our excellent roleplay. We roleplay 2d spacemen in a game about farts, who realize that they are 2d spacemen in a game about farts and are perfectly fine with it. :haw:

I think most people try not to metagame and do try to at least be semi-coherent. I'll RP it up if I'm playing something like Miner because that has a lot of spare time in which to type silly sentences. If it's a really hectic job with a lot to do or if I have some goal in mind that kind of falls into the wayside.

"Ensure that at least four people escape alive on the shuttle while high on drugs" would be a pretty funny bonus objective, but the "no cannabis products" one is meant to cut down on the frequency of client-crashingly massive stacks of weed being left everywhere, I think, which is a good thing. It's much funnier as an infrequent event than as the universal constant that it was for a while.

Now that things can be burned, we need skewers and the ability to cook certain items by skewering them and using the skewers on a burning object or person. Roast hot dogs over a bonfire. Toast marshmallows on the blazing body of the RD. Make s'mores over a giant mountain of burning weed.

Oh my god, yes. Make every fruit, vegetable, and piece of meat able to be skewered and cooked on a fire. Bonus points if vampires and the shambling abomination can take a break to roast kabobs of arms and gibs to heal themselves slightly.

So I had a mishap in mining and my charge set off some plasmastone. Apparently you can still drag it into your mining satchel while its on fire with no bad consequence.
I should’ve dumped the bag out to see if it would still be on fire, instead of just shoving it into the fabricator.

You could try getting some crew together for a telescience expedition. That can generally go pretty well roleplaying-wise, and it's guaranteed that you'll get at least some volunteers just from saying "telescience expedition" over the radio in most rounds. Especially once your team starts dying and the rest have free license to *scream like madmen and cower in lockers while you're desperately trying to beat an ice spider to death with your shoes before it can lay eggs in you.

We need an entire cockroach revamp. Let the cook keep a cage of them in the kitchen, and feed them table scraps. Make dead cockroaches contain portions of all the substances they've eaten. Pump them full of MSG for delicious slices of cockroach cake, or shove them full of cyanide and then serve up a batch of deadly fried cockroach legs.

Seriously this idea!

While we're in the chef topic I have been playing chef pretty regularly and I've ordered crates at the beginning of the round (fresh produce and condiment) and have never gotten them from QM. Can the chef get a small supply of sauce at least to start with since ordering anything off the radio is pointless due to Swedishness and qm's aren't responding to the console.

It'd be nice to at least have some ketchup and hot sauce packets. What kinda kitchen doesn't have ketchup? Not many, just like 5 of each, kinda like how we start with access to a little bit of peanut butter. Enough to mollify dabbler chefs but not enough that you can get by without QM or Botany if you want to produce a lot of food.
