Hi, it's me, someone who was adamant that the original pretty severe pull penalties were okay (barring random items that were missed as exceptions).
I'm fine with it mostly being reverted (to its now current state). I have the following questions/suggestions:
I'm fine with it mostly being reverted (to its now current state). I have the following questions/suggestions:
- If a crate has people in it, is the slowdown applied if any people inside do not have HELP intent, or is it applied per person who does not have HELP intent (e.g. assume slowdown is to 80% of normal speed - if it contains two people with non-HELP intents is the speed 80% of 80% (64%), or is it a blanket full-speed/slowed binary?
- The slower speed for those without HELP intent seems to be reasonable. I would still be for making this a blanket thing for crates/lockers whether they have people inside or not. The reduction really isn't that terrible for anyone who's already writing up a rant about "Quartermasters are spacemen too!", and it would give meaning to the other methods still as well as reducing drive-by stuff-snatching.
- Is there any reason for not having it affect pull speed for standing people on non-HELP intent? An example situation would be a cuffed individual being dragged to the brig now HAS to lie down in order to slow their brigging (not such a problem for those being abducted by antags as they're normally stunned/neurotoxined anyway). I'm fine with laying down being a requirement to resist arrest, as it means that if someone bumps into the person pulling them they can't immediately take off as they would need to get up first. Just a discussion point.
