Regarding Freeport 11

[Treewyrm]

RP piece is the bubble itself, cosmetics are it's looks, and in-game you don't have much more than the looks of it. However you have much more than the looks of your guns in-game, like projectile damage, speed, gun turn rate, etc.

Neither cosmetics are the looks of ships, appearances are tangible within RP. Effects are appearances. The argument of "we didn't have a different effect" doesn't fly for reasons stated above in my previous responses.

My vote is on some yellow-gold bubble.

Sure, could try that.

Wait a minute, all this madness is is justified based on a dev that re-used a light effect (or whatever that is)?

Rather it's based on a certain character interpreting appearance of an object within the game to an already existing other objects of the same appearance. But some say that's oorp thing to do. I firmly disagree.

Otherwise what's the opposite? Have everyone flying same boxes for sake of ideal PvP balance and all appearances would have to be purely imaginary.

Those reasons didn't exist in the past, at least I've never heard them from you before, nor from anybody else yet, and certainly not around or before the times when Jinx requested the shield bubble for the Persy. That you volunteer for creating effects on request is good news, but at least for me these are not as old news as Jinx's SRP. Just like how the Ingenuus happened to be a Leviathan before admins/devs (re)added the possibility of adding custom ships to the mod via SRPs if a model exists for the SRP already prepared for implementation/insertion.

That was my point too, yes.

So in this case, you won't mind if every person who makes up some idea like that and gets it through goes to you asking for a "special" effect for themselves only right ? ^^ Just asking, casuse that would give ppl loads o' SRP possibilities, and a crapload of work for you.

In short, yes...
In long, it's more complicated, cause RP value was given to something that was not exactly ment to have that value ... and so the war starts ^^

Feel free to come up with ideas. I may have solidified my opinion on the other matter within this thread (appearances and RP), but that doesn't affect making the proper effect for your roleplay effort.

No offense intended Golsansky, but I hope you don't mind if people start making jokes about you declaring Synth Foods infected because they created a purple sauce. Because you just earn it.

First of all there are already filters in place before you even get to the point of making content request, so not like you could throw me something to implement for your character right off the bat. Of course not. So at very first there has to be actual SRP procedures done, the character has to be active, exist and participate. But that part isn't for me to worry about - it's already in place and it's maintained by admins. Secondly not every random effect idea passes through. I exert design decision whether this or that effect will be made, as well as ensuring the effect wouldn't bring down lower end PCs to their knees. If it's reasonable, if it fits the style I strive to maintain as a developer, if it is applicable to your valid SRP character then I don't see a problem why it cannot happen.

I'm sure it will be fine as long as the purple sauce doesn't use the liquid cardamine icon or another nomad-related appearance.
