This PR added directional apcs and despite having 5 dislikes to 3 likes (probably for reasons of “where APC?”)

Having a more visible APC for every direction that is not front on would be tight.
I get having it in the previous form “looked worse” but visual clarity > visual fidelity IMO

Spriters, can you do something about this?

APCs on south walls are hard to see, agree.

You can use Security Access Tuners/Multitools to find them quicker though.

Yesterday I saw one gigabrain CT that moved engine room APC to another wall facing east, and hid it under the table parts (he put them parts on another table), making the sprite barely noticeable

Can xenos get some xecurity access tuners, please?

Good change.

How about they emit a faint light, like a cigarette, that only breaks when completely busted.

Marines can still find the APC with a multitool.

PR #7000 made APCs glow in the dark, but I haven’t seen how much the north facing ones glow

Yeah. It looks very nice, although anything but south facing is hard to notice or even click on.
The change was fully made with astehtics first, qol and balance second. I cant tell how often i misslick the damn sprite. And i got an ultrawide.

How about the exposed wires apc and the broken APC sparked once in a while.

That would be at least imersive. Maybe showing a xeno near it suddenly due to the spark.
Marines without multitools would have an easier time finding them in the dark.
