What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
This suggestion aims to replace the surface queue for 323 with a different spawning mechanic. My idea for this is:
• At random between every 2-3 hours, SCP-323's skull will spawn as an entity at a random location on the surface similar to an 096 photo, it will not spawn again if already on the surface. In this state players near the skull will hear quiet whispers and have their hunger bar slowly deplete.
• If a player has been in the radius of 323 for over a minute, they will get a chat/overhead pop-up stating that they feel violent, giving them an in character reason to attack people nearby, and they will get the zombie walk/run cycle (This effect could be mitigated with a chemical).
• If the player has been exposed to 323 for 2 minutes they will began slowly focusing on the skull having their vision dragged towards it, they will eventually be unable to move/look around until they interact with the skull, if the skull is forcibly removed from the area or someone else interacts with it the effect dissipates and they return back to the prior state.
•Once a player interacts with the skull they will become SCP-323 as normal and the skull despawns.
Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
I haven't seen a rework for specifically the spawning mechanic.
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
+ Gives SOP/GOC/CI another reason to patrol surface
+ Gives Parawatch/Civilians a chance to be exposed to an anomaly without being instantly murdered
+ Gives more RP opportunities to test with 323's skull
+ Gives unused inanimate rooms a use
+ Cool
+ (From what I've seen) Would make 323 more present on the surface
+ MC&D could actually sell an anomaly without staff/gm intervention and breaches
Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
- Dev time
- Not a priority
- Players without access to the surface would have less access to 323 (but they could always play civi)
Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
This suggestion provides more potential RP and activity for the surface, specifically to Nu7/DEA/RSD/CI/GOC/MC&D/Parawatch. Whilst making an underused SCP more prevalent on the server. There is a concern that other surface RP may be disrupted by the appearance of 323 but it kind of already is.
