My 6 suggestions for improving pathology's workflow and making it more organized.
In descending order of importance.
1: A test tube rack to hold vials in.
2: some kind of incubator or cryostorage thing (reskin the microwave?) to hold petri dishes inside of that will keep the cultures alive without needing to constantly feed them forever and babysit them until the end of time, it's also meant as another container like the test tube rack for more organization.
Perhaps even make it so that there's multiple different storages and placing the dish into the wrong one kills the pathogen?
3: Reduce the UI for the pathology computer. It's WAAAAY too massive.
4: Have vials and/or petri dishes be named after their pathogen(s) (or microbody(s) if that seems too convenient).
Like the x89g21 vial or whatever (or the red tessellated fungus etc). Will help improve the work flow.
Instead of having all vials be named the generic "the totally safe whatever blah blah blah TM".
No one wants to be forced to use hand labelers.
5: Have the selection window for the microscope stay open until manually closed after a selection is made. Like the portable camera monitors in telesci or what the detective/journalist have.
6: There's also not that many ways to get new pathogens when you run out of the default ones that spawn.
(Besides random events, culturing, the abandoned pathology station, and I think buying off of D.O.C.?)
Maybe have purchasable pathogens off the CDC in QM? Have them only be benign and tier 1?
Thanks for your time, and for reading my suggestions!![[Image: smile.gif]](https://forum.ss13.co/images/smilies/SA/smile.gif)
