Fridge changes

Post by Sarah_U. » 17 Jul 2016, 06:11

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Allow the fridge to cool items and people.
Optionally, allow fridges to be one of the rare things to be movable as a locker.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
It'll let people carry fridges around to store food, blood bags, etc., while at the same time being a risk for anyone hidding inside of them if the optional idea is accepted.
Generally, it'll make fridges more realistic, possibly causes a few RP situations and generally be an interesting idea as a whole.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
When the fridge is closed anything inside is cooled, when open it stops.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
To my understanding anything inside a locker when closed is teleported, thus an effect or something could be applied during the process.
CM was obviously inspired by Starcraft: Ghost opening. At least when marines takes too long to deploy.

Neutral but I see a few issues with this already, How this looks its basically going to make for better version of ghetto cryo, which people still think is a great thing (ie the showers) while in actuality its horribly inefficient and rather wasteful of cryo/clonex, which should only be used in dire need. So people probably start taking this to the FOB to make for a ghetto cryosetup if it is portable

Tbh, there's showers in the nexus and only like... Actually wait, I've never seen anyone use them for cryo. Either way, I see your point, but generally speaking I see it as a nice feature overall and people knowledgable of the 'Cryo' part should have a chance to use as as you've said... It'll be much less efficient.

This will likely get abused, and I'm not sure what the actual benefits would be. You don't need to cool anything aside people.
