I think there is like, slight opportunity for meta knowledge to be shared via ghosts scanning health… but it’s so minor. I just wanna see how much damage X did without waiting five minutes and forgetting about it.

This was removed because people would power-game it by scanning themselves after they died, noting everything damaged/broken and then immediately after being revived would go something like “Fracture on left arm, leg and head. IB in left leg. 10 heart damage” and it was just super LRP.

I mean, we should punish for that instead of mechanically.

Seems like a pointless endeavour when not having the mechanic just removes the need to punish entirely
Also, your reason for this is literally essentially “just because i wanna see lol” and what is the actual use of even having it besides just allowing powergaming

the rule of thumb is that if rulebreake can be prevented with mechanics that is the way to go

Been burnt alive for several minutes and seeing what the docs are having to deal with. Fun to know.

Scanning xeno health to see how much damage something did. Very silly that that’s not allowed considering why it’s blocked(or I’m like 90% sure you can’t scan xenos)

It’d be cool if you could see everyone else’s health except for yours. Doubt you could powergame that
