[Feature] Time stopping!! - moonlol - 02-04-2020

After months of procrastination its finally done.
time stopping might be coming to a station near you! (in admin only form)
i've included a example of how it could be used in the form of an admin only (read: unobtainable via spell book) wiz spell
what does time stopping do?:
it stops the following:
  • movement
  • item inventory handling
  • speech
  • critter ai
  • projectiles
  • thrown items
  • loops (if it is enabled)
  • damage (you rack up damage during time stop then get it all at once at the end)(doesnt do bleeding)
it also inverts the colours of the tiles affected to easily see where the time stop is occurring



demonstration video (short and doesnt cover all aspects sadly):

a cool effect but terrifying. I'm pretty sure that even as an admin button only effect this thing is dangerous.

I mean yes, its powerful. But we do have buttons that are just "give everyone chainsaws for arms" and "blow up everyone".

I'd really like to see this :D

It could always have a super long cooldown...
