Wild West Station

[LovelyMimic]

So I was initially not huge on the idea of bespoke heat exhaustion mechanics, but after some thought, I've concluded that getting hosed for not wearing a hat out of town isn't actually super harsh, given what happens on other stations when you step outside without internals. This seems roughly analogous to that.

I'm rather more concerned about the feasibility of having multiple player-occupied department-settlements. As Kubius put it:



And like, Samedi's departments weren't separated by sweltering heat and the risk of bandit attacks. I just think the considerable work it would take to make this function would be better spent elsewhere.

That said, I'm certainly not opposed to the idea of there being nondepartmental outposts to travel to, with traders buying and selling cool goods at different prices. I just don't want to spread out the actual station. Well, town.
