A change should not force players to use items. A change should make players want to use items not just because they are forced to but because it will give them a edge in the game for the task they are doing and even if they don't use the items that's not a bad thing, as even if a small amount of players use a item then it's a good thing as it means they are robust then all of them and can think outside the box. But effectively punishing the whole playerbase cause certain items don't get used is wrong and strongly goes against the freedom of goonstation. As a example People loved the new movement update cause it added new things. It did not take away from their enjoyment of the game. Anything that slows down the gameplay of our server should be seen as a bad thing.
EDIT: These realism changes are getting out of hand. They are coming from a good place but not much thought is being put into them before they get put in the game and that's a issue if I've ever seen one. Realism has it's place in space station but fun should not be sacrificed for it over the overall enjoyment of the game. If any of us wanted this type of stuff we'd would play ultra realistic games.
