Roamers
Suggestions meant to be LESS abusable and ez to add for devs.
- roamers are abused - roamers can be very very fun but only when they roam
Changes: - 15 minutes of total invuln when roamer spawns. With 3x dps (only suggested cause ez fix to stop camping spawn points
OR
Totally random spawn points within respective layer (why is this not in already)
^^. For all roamers even holiday ones.
- certain currently ingame ubers as roamers.. Maus ubers Uz ubers short of lion/emp
- shorter spawn times - player / aggro specific coding so ubers increase exponentially in dps and resists per kill. (aggro coding with half decay of aggro would work great. Campers and repeat kills lessened)
Tl;dr. Roamer coding sucks. Some possible ez fixes.

Re: Roamers
Or just totally random spawn points, as they always should have had...
I also like the idea of roaming Mausoleum ubers, kind of. Not so much for the UZ ones though.

Re: Roamers
With the idea of ez programmability in mInd, if random spawn points are tough to program, why not an ai only roamer only tweak that is force used on spawning: - ridiculous neg vis -1mil % duration 15 mins no charging req'd 1 energy needed - +700 speed -99% wt +40k turning +200kthrust
Would be same difference unless the roamer autoaggroes. That could be a major issue.
Some ai might have lighthouses also which would make this pointless.

Re: Roamers
Totally random spawn points would be the best fix. Must be some reason they haven't put it in already.
Set a value for all peril layer or ef etc as A and B. (map can distinguis layers so has to be a value set already) Set another for gals there that it should not spawn in as c (the work part of this) A generator to assign gals a series number 1...inf Randomn numb gen if # =a or b but not c then spawn or if error repeat until a gal# qualifies.
I could create a random gal selecting program from macro without game code just using visual cues and map program from player side so I'm sure there is an ezeay to do this somehow.
Still.. Has to be some reason this isn't in.

Re: Roamers
There's an admin cloak that makes the ship completely invisible. They could toggle that on for the first 15 minutes after spawn and roam around unseen.

Re: Roamers
I can't believe you all overlooked people gremming the AI, critting with rad or tractoring, or even just exploding so many items in proximity to it..

Re: Roamers
Mm so ez temp fix try no 3
The invis as stated Second OL with 4x dmg and rof on spawning that decays on warp like a Heph OL. That and random spawn time might be enough to prevent ez camping.

Re: Roamers
Just make them spawn dynamically, problem solved.
