The only plausible explaination for this I can come up with is that somehow your trit managed to burn within the can because you left something there.

It might have gotten too hot inside the can maybe? Does trit only burn with other shit or can it auto combust?

Heat is probably the most likely, but low-tier cans also have a pressure limit. If there's too much stuff inside them they explode.

it hit like 9 megapascals last I checked, so probably popped and then burned. I must not have cooled it down fast enough as the production ramped up. Sad.

Also getting virus transmission high is like pulling out teeth. There has to be a better way than just random rolling using limited resources.

All you really need is virus food. Once you get Viral Evolutionary Acceleration you can fill the rest with 2-3 transmission symptoms like fever or vomiting.

It is SUPER vital for us to remove the monkey limit on kiwistation. The idea that 64 monkeys is the upper cap is absolutely psychotic. How else are we supposed to abandon modernity & embrace monke!?

I demand it. Remove that cap. Ooga booga ook ook
Click to expand...
as someone who regularly returns to monke I advocate for this as well and raise you a return of jungle fever as a possible antag, possibly as a 25 TC geneticist (or scientist) only item

edit: While we're at it can we restore the gorrillas ability to punch walls, windows and doors and let them throw shit. or atleasat allow them to understand and speak monke?

Apparently rad collectors only collect SM rads. Someone tried setting up a uranium engine but the collectors didn't pick it up. Probably removed with the other engines, would it be possible to have rad collectors collect all kinds of rads?

Give the Admins to me to break

Also I'm still good with being an admin and I've been playing every day obsessively like a loser.

As a side note:

I tried to set up a nuclear engine yesterday, triggering the radiation and then using the collectors to capture it. It didn't do jack shit, the radiation was flooding out but it didn't do anything. Sad. I'm comitting here and now to try within the next month to code a nuclear reactor style engine because the SM is fucking garbage and I fucking hate it.

IT WAS I WHO ATTEMPTED THIS!

And yeah it's not the same thing as SM rads, SM rads irradiate things, Uranium does not, or it does, but in a different way. I'm going to flick through over january before my Uni course starts and see if I can pick apart why, and then try and code a reactor.

Basic idea for it is
Plasteel to make a reactor floor; uranium to make fuel rods; then you have to insert the rods into the reactor floor to generate power, check temperature and radiation levels.

Then instead of it exploding, a meltdown would be increasing waves of radiation that cause a greater and greater 'sphere' of an irradiated area outside the reactor. Or Hell, I'll just try and code a radioactive gas it emits. May as well give it a go, because fuck SM.

Filling the room with Tritium gas on meltdown would be... Interesting.

Would also make a silly way to generate tritium for personal use, by making a permanently melting reactor in a hardened chamber to suck the gas out of.

I've not been able to play much at all during December because of a ton of other shit I've had to do. If the server needs more admins let me know. Sorry about the neglect.

i haven't seen a single admin on since the server was regularly getting 30-40 players daily
i even sent in an admin app to try to help out with it, it's wack how the admins are never on

It was once possible to get the rads coming out of the SM to expand so far outward and be so lethal that it'd instantly fry borgs and kill people all the way on the arrivals shuttle in about two seconds flat

Was that the thing that involved creating black fire in the SM chamber or am I misremembering?

Using darkfire to summon rads is pretty heavy metal, not gonna lie.

People did this as a protest against Oranges for nearly a whole month. It was unbelievable. Part of the thing of getting max rads involved stuffing bluespace RPEDs full of tiny stuff and throwing them into the SM chamber, because each item inside them individually emitted radiation. If you put enough objects in the chamber it would slow the server to a crawl.

I'm not describing the way I want things to be, but the way things are. The way to minimize politics isn't to be apolitical. That might work in the short term, but if you're thinking long term it never works. In five years, what you now view as apolitical and centrist is going to be right wing. In accordance with your policy of being "apolitical" there will be pushes to move left along with the Overton window so as to not be political. And likely, ninety percent of the people now that would oppose such a change won't be around. This game skews late teens and early 20's.

On /tg/, it was once the centrist policy to allow for freedom of speech, within typical 1st amendment limits. That was back ten years ago. Now in 2020, the centrist policy is that hate speech is not free speech. They took an apolitical stance, but in the age of ever increasing leftism, what it meant to be apolitical changed. So they relented, and now /tg/ is once again "apolitical". You might think this can't happen to you, but this was literally a 4chan server. Nobody would've thought ten years ago a 4chan server would ban the word "nigger" or "kike" or whatever, but they did.

I'm not asking for much. Just enshrine the right to free speech with typical 1st amendment restrictions into the rules as a non negotiable. That's what I mean when I say explicitly right wing. You can try to keep this as a cultural norm, but that hasn't worked out very well for any other server that has tried it. New people come, old people go. Norms fade.

So did you get an A in your social science courses this semester? I can't tell if you're sharing those hot takes because you think people here are fools to be educated, or because you think you'll look intelligent for tying everything back to the vague blanket of 'politics'. While you're at it, write us an essay on 2+2=4, or better yet a basic analysis of human body language.

Have you never heard of the phrase office politics? This is literally the same shit dude. The form of social organization is different, but it's the same principle. It's not some far out there take like you think it is. Here's the Wikipedia article. I guess you're just a kid though, and don't really understand this yet, since you've yet to attain a career.
