Donator gear

Post by InterroLouis » 13 Dec 2016, 15:40

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Allow donators an option to resprite regular equipment to their donator gear.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Donators wouldn't lose their special stuff because they got cloned, or because of a single hugger.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
It would give donators the option to resprite a standard armor or helmet to their donator items, only while they're wearing it, and if someone else puts it back on it would revert, so as to avoid everyone having the donator gear.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Coding magic, I'm not a coder so I have no idea. But coding magic.

Like a verb to resprite the item?
On May 17, 2016, a group of farmers dug up the diary of an ear of corn named Watson. Here are his entries.

Day 76:
They took Lawrence, dear god Lawrence... They ripped him off the stalk and smeared him in butter, just like Tyler and Jodie. They shipped him off to the popcorn factory...
I wonder what his wife will say.

Day 120: My brother says the VEGANS are protesting for more anti-meat bullshit. They want more of us to die. FUCKING HEATHENS.

Day 153: The ants are eating me from the inside out. They are popping out my kernels and taking them back to the nest. I feel them moving inside me. Julia says the pesticides will end our misery.

Day 300: Sweet Release. I can hear the planes flying over now. They are dropping the gas, it feels so good, sweet release-

I do agree there needs to be a better way to regain access to a Doner Helmet, considering the state of the game its really easy to get your helmet knocked off and destroyed.

Made worse that if your Doner helmet covers your entire face, you'll be in trouble if you decide to wear it and get facehugged since now no one will see the hugger.

Hell, even if you literally just take your damaged Doner helmet, hit a functional normal helmet, and that deletes the helmet and fixes the Doner helmet, would pretty much resolve the issue.
This is war, survival is your responsibility.
