I check this game like every 6 months hoping to see soap or bananas are nerfed or removed but now you guys made it way worse, if you get stunned by a soap or banan you’re afk for like 10 seconds it’s actually ridiculous. It’s impossible to be security cause people just throw soap or banana and you lose everything, just ruins space station 14.
Try walking. I heard it`s OP

skill issue
( but yeah hold shift to walk it stops from slipping except from space lube)

Also as antag. I always get non slip shoes. Great thing against robust(they panic when you don`t slip)
Huh? They have both been nerfed. Nerf & standardised slip times by K-Dynamic · Pull Request #27879 · space-wizards/space-station-14 · GitHub
also it has been changed from the old(er) system, the soap needs to be stationary for you to slip on it. No tossing soap through a corridor and slipping everyone now
Not how it works, people just press q when you’re walking and it will still slip you. It’s not a fun game mechanic. There needs to be a set time for it to count as a slip, it needs to be placed for at least 2 seconds before being able to slip people. Soap or banana, ran into this today again and it was not a fun.
you’re running. (Regular) Soap and bananas can only slip you while running, walk and you’ll be fine
Strongest stunmeta enjoyer VS weakest slip enjoyer
If you’re playing security you won’t catch anyone if you have to walk constantly, it makes security unfun to play. Not really a solution for how easy it is to make people slip.
Don’t chase with the stun baton and your problem goes away
Here is a thing that can help you. In options there is shortcuts for quick acces belt and bag(default shift+b shift+v ot something. Rebing those to single button)
When you open your bag or belt you can see that last item you put in there has gold star and second last is silver.
If you press quick access butt it put it in on away from your hand in instant.
For your situation you can put in your bag and baton in your belt. And get it in and out with a press of single button(2 buttons on my mice dedicated to that)
Which allow you to get out button hit a guy and put it away.
Or you can do fast reloading of your gun. Or throw unholy amount of flashbangs.
Because game track order items were you in. You can just put flashbangs in your bag last and then just spam QuickInvetoryButton(for me mouse button 4)->UseItem(E)->ThrowItem(Mouse button 5)
Became the grenade machinegun or faster gun reloader of robust. Take time to configure controls to your liking
The point of slipping is to annoy the other player. That is the whole idea of the mechanic. Slipping is naturally supposed to be annoying.
This is not overpowered, it’s working exactly as intended.
I already do that, but see the problem is when you are ready to hit them with the stun baton and they press q under your feet and now you slip and lose the baton.

Alternative is why you have disabler. I usually go for disabler slowdown and finish with baton.
But if they do any lethal attack back to you, lethal force is on the table.
Because resisting arrest and assault is one thing(sliping you, pushing you)
And attempted murder is another(any lethal attack is treated as attempted murder.
If you can always carry a lethal pistol. Don`t take any mags, the mag inside pistol is more then enough against person without combat armor.
Don`t mag dump them either, let them surrender or try to crit them. The get them to med with handcuffs on.(you also can blindfold them if they wounded you to poor, or bad state).
The moment you get them to med, call backup and if you see guy try to unrestrain himself then unbuckle him and rebuckle.(Call for backup before med, if your state is bad)
Then hope that your warden actually know how crime multiplication works. For example
- They grab your baton. Possession of major contraband(5 min)
- Failure to comply(5min) OR breach of arrest(10min). If you said your under arrest and they run then that`s breach of arrest. If you didn’t its Failure to comply
- Assault/Battery(10min) or Attempted Murder(15min). They hit with non lethal, slip, push you then its Assault/Battery. If weapon was lethal then it can be treated as Attempted Murder
So we are loocking at 6 Minutes to 30 minutes sentence.
Since 1 and 2 could be a warning but Third one is not a warning type scenario.(but it could be reduced if guy was compliant or surrender himself in)
Then you adjust it on how compliant he was. And if he tried to take restraints off while you were getting him to sec then its pacifist or tracker implant time. Since i prefer avoiding perma somebody.
And if they Gibbed someone(Prevention of Revival), bombed and its done spacing of area(Terrorism) or people even died in spacing(Mass murder).
Well now we will perma you if you just welder bombed or KoS if it`s was anything else.
And if Captain is mean, we will cut off your arms and legs and then perma you(Captains permission on Capital Criminals revoke of people rights. Aka contract termination. Just have paper with captain stamp that say “John Syndicate contract is now terminated. Due to capital crimes against NT all his personal rights are hereby revoked”)
P.S.The last part depends on server really
P.S.S. And for the love of WEH, move in pairs please. Have a seclite for maint. Just please find a buddy or cadet and walk as pair.
P.S.S.S. And no, someone punching you once if you undressed them naked(you should not remove clothing without pockets. Only coat) is not assault.
Since you going way WAY WAY beyond search. Undressing of that piece is only for arrested people.
You don`t make people commit Disturbance via Public Nudity. That will give you the tittle of shitsec and people not only will not save you, they can legally grief you(closing doors in front of you, drop a soap and say “Oh i dropped my soap teehee”) and then have lawyer hold you in sec with them after “illegal” arest basically removing you both from a round unless its RED alert
Or you hit bystander with disabler or wide batton and they punch you once is also not really an assault.(depends oh how much of bastard you roleplay. It can be assault)

hilarious and unique reply that is not relevant
So from what i am getting, this is just a complaint about sec pursuing targets.
You have both a long range stun and a close range stun + an AoE stun, the others don’t, their one tool is things like soap to buy them a bit of time. You have all the tools at your disposal and they have what amounts to a mine that takes skill and prediction to use effectively.
If the target is running away, shoot them with the disabler and keep your distance. Or just accept defeat against someone better than you and try getting the jump on them or bring backup.
I hate the skill issue response, but you cannot ignore this is quite literally a skill issue.
It really is not that big of a deal either. Nobody is going to die because the assistant got away with the CE’s boots. If it is a lethal situation, you have a gun that you should be using instead of getting in a situation where you can get slipped.
What i will admit is that slipping is way less fun without crawling, which Goob Station has.
