Ghost drones need to go. Every week or so I witness ghost drones doing bad shit. For example 2 days ago a ghost drone dropped a naval mine on me with a cargo tug while I was a wizard. Them doing anything is technically an impact on the round. Ahelping them fixes it after the fact, so does breaking the ghost drone. The issue is in the drones themself, not the people using them. The fact that its an easy mechanic to abuse, cuz lots of people do it, means it should go. The only thing that is cool about them is when they do cool projects, but if you want to do cool projects you can just get borged or ask QM for metal. Also, its no secret that i like bombs. When ever I do bomb the station, i want it to stay that way! However often times a ghost drone starts immediatly repairing the holes that ive created. People say a ghost drones job is to "fix the station" yet every 90% of the things wrong with the station were caused by antags who want it to stay that way. Just like what Buttes said on the thread about removing chem's ability to break floors, it isnt hard to repair places, its just hard to repressurize them. Why keep it if their only purpose is to fix holes in the station that A. were caused by antags. and B. the holes can easily be fixed by a player. Ghost drones have all the tools to grief and it happens all too often. Of course, im just rambling my thoughts here, but it feels like i see ghost drone grief every week, and their actions are all grey area.
