I can only assume this happened because someone did something overly retarded. Is that why we can't have nice things?

no, humans who use the bracers had a chance of losing both of their fucking arms and activating the SD while trying to use one of the Bracer verbs

now they just lose their arms so they can't accidentally grief medbay or FOB while trying to activate cloak or pull out wrist scims

Well then, didn't know the Bracers worked like that.

sadly, i dont think mutations are even remotely balanced for a low pop map, which is the time i usually play the most.

nothing is balanced for low pop where you been the last 3 month of marine rushes?

Would it be possible to fix the poor sentry gun? You've thankfully fixed the "not seeing through smoke" issue, but it'll still bug out:

a) after it's toppled. The sprite won't update, but clicking on it will show "You start to set the sentry gun upright," and once it's back up, it usually bugs out and won't work.
b) anytime it's on the ship. There's no point to moving sentries back to the Almayer, since they won't function, full stop.
c) often when it's moved. Moving the damn thing around has a high likelihood of making it bug out.
d) sometimes for no reason at all. Sometimes after sustained fire, even with a half-full ammo drum and plenty of power remaining, and even with the "toppled" bug addressed (i.e. someone's clicked on it to make sure it's upright)...sometimes it just stops working for no damn reason.

I love the /idea/ of the sentry gun, but there's no point hauling along a weapon that doesn't work.
