What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
+ The ability for SCP-096 to jump
+ (potentially) the ability for SCP-096 to see SCP-096-1's regional location at all times [EG> 96-1 ui overlay shows "Kill them (D-Block)"]
+ (potentially) faster crawl/crouch speed to catch up with humans in vents who can crouch much faster than 096

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
Not to my knowledge.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2)
+ Ease of access to SCP-096's SWEP, especially for newer players not as aware of sub-levels and zones like elevators
+ Prevention of 096-1 'stallers' [People who enter higher vents or jump down d block's upper fenced area where 096 cannot jump and therefore access.]
+ Lore accuracy and faster breaches

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
+ Spam jumping on any scp can always be abused
+ Potential bugs
+ (Unsure) requires a possible rework of 096's SWEP and/or role

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
I do truly believe this is an overall positive additive towards 096's base kit, the ability to outright disable 096-1's to avoid death via 096 is something many players can agree is a healthy change towards the Immersion of the site, especially since MTF or GSD usually have to deal with these people which break immersion.

Additionally adding the potential ability for SCP-096 to access the accurate positions of all affected people could also be seen as a healthy addition and prevent possible immersion breaks such as when an unexperienced 096 breaks a bulk head in HCZ believing somebody is on the other side when they are actually inside of an EZ Sub-level, pocket dimension or otherwise.

I gave up on trying to get reasonable changes made to 096 following my last attempt, which not only directly includes your first and last points, which were denied for "There being no animation for 096 jumping" and "Ruining immersion" respectively - Because apparently having these glaring gameplay flaws remain extant is less important than ensuring stuff fits in properly, despite the fact that the second one makes NO SENSE as to get anyone in D-Block vents, 096 has to slide around in them crouched, which apparently I guess already didn't ruin immersion? Go figure.

But it's simply not happening - Not for lack of a good idea, but for logic I cannot comprehend.

Would also be nice to have sitting be a toggle rather than linked to crouch.
Agree - I made these both toggles clientside via funky aliasing and autoexec commands and such, for 096 gameplay.

I absolutely agree and from a player perspective It would seem to be minor issues, I don't even think anybody expects that much immersion from a Gmod SCP-RP in the first place so denying a post chalking it up to minute details such as no animations for 096 jumping or crawling seems rather lazy.
I do want to reiterate I don't intend to throw any shade at any of the content/SL role holders it is merely an unbiased observation.

Also for the toggle crouch I just utilise the exact same thing lol

Suggestion Partially Approved



Hi @Smity_Boi ,

Thanks for taking the time to make a server suggestion.
The Content Team has chosen to partially accept your suggestion for the following reasons.

We will only be accepting giving 096 the ability to jump as to give him the ability to keep up with people abusing railings to get away from him.

Your suggestion will now be locked and marked as partially accepted.
