Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Add a cryo chamber aboard the pred ship so that if a pred player needs to leave they can free up the pred slot.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): More people get to play pred.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Add in a cryo chamber somewhere on the pred ship.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Mapping and a bit of coding.

Preds should be uncommon. You get a max of 3, I think? Having additional show up when one taps out seems a bit much.

I think you can have 5 preds in the same round, but i'm not sureJroinc1 wrote:-1.

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-

Re: Cryo chamber aboard the Pred ship.
It would still be 3 preds in a round, it's for when a player decides to leave and then someone else can jump in.Jroinc1 wrote:-1.

Reasons for this being that many a time you'll see pred players leave early into a round or mid way, but taking up that slot even when they're SSD, what I was hoping from this was that more players would be able to try out pred by having preds cryoed.
It's not like it's adding in an extra pred on top of the ones actively playing it's swapping out the SSD pred for a active pred.

Re: Cryo chamber aboard the Pred ship.
We do not want to add more predators to a round, given how much influence they can have. If someone has to leave, they are out of the round. If they have to leave right away, or can't play for long, they should not join the game as a predator. It's a whitelisted role so people who play have common sense. Denied.
