Rev or Revs? Revenant vs revoloution

I think inkeeping with consistent short terms that aren’t confusing i think the Revenant antag needs a name revision. The shorthand for both is the exact same and thus I think it’d be appropriate to change the name of the Revenant. Mostly because its a less dangerous and fleshed out antag. And also Revolutionary is a good way to describe both the individuals and the gamemode

Wraith maybe?

Wraith is a good name but doesnt really have a good shortname. Calling it a poltergeist means you could call it geist which is good shorthand.

Geist is only one letter shorter than Wraith

Wraith is the shortname, it’s a short name.

Could also use polt but it doesnt really roll off the tongue

This is mostly a player created issue. The short names are not official.

Well yeah, but people from earth tend to shorten things to fewer syllables to save time. And the short hand tends to be a shorter version of the longform… so the developers having two antags that would automatically be shortened to Revs. Is a design flaw.

I mean. The players and the devs are basically the same thing. If we can improve our communication in game this is just a good thing, honestly i see no reason not to make it less confusing

i see people yell “REVENANT” in full when there is one so uhhhhh
