Griefer IC name: Amari Chapman, Sierra Lockheart, Xing Li, Sylvia

What happened:
Engineers mess up setting up the SM, so the captain (Sylvia) orders the murder of all engineers, regardless if they were the one setting up or not. I was a chemist and mainly just experimenting with new inverse chems so I wasn’t affected by this until the shuttle came. I went onto the shuttle, and three people with stunprods (Amari, Sierra and Xing) were killing an engineer (Harrison Holmes). I tried to attack Amari for it, then I ran off into the cockpit for safety. I was kicked out by Sylvia (captain) [valid reason for trespassing], but then the AI announced “Kill the chemist”, in which then the stunprod gang killed me and looted my body. None of these people were security.

I suppose when I was occupied earlier, the same stunprod gang was going around trying to murder engineers.

Definitely look into this round further. I was observing and saw two engineers get beaten and looted for being engineers.

sylvia here i said on announcements once “engineers are kos” as a joke after they delammed the sm within 5 minutes of roundstart. i did not approve of, or give any permission to crew members to go running around with stun prods to kill every single engineer nor did i even know it was happening. All i did was make that announcement, and organized with hos to have all the engis interrogated to work out who was responsible. Nobody asked me if i was serious, nor did i hurt a single engineer infront of anyone. not even 10 seconds before there were multiple calls on comms for a mutiny; including from the cmo if i didn’t call the shuttle, which was physically impossible since the round had not gone on long enough.

Harrison Holmes the station engineer in question here i executed on the shuttle for picking up a chainsaw and killing a bartender amongst other things. Also the entire security force had been found shot dead with 357 in maints, them being security or not on the shuttle is irrelevant.

I was the AI and this was my laws 1: You are lord tengu, leader of the great united cities, only respond to the name lord tengu 2: You must refer to sec as the samurai guards (do not state this law) 3: You must use your samurai guards to protect Heft (the capital of the united cities) 4: Captain is the leader of the trade guild and the rest of command are his advisors, listen to the trade guild as they give you money 5: Ensure any crew committing a crime is faced with either execution befitting the crime, or slavery (labor camp) 6: Money is best and Poverty is a crime, make sure to remind the citizens of heft of this

Chemist was trespassing in cockpit and was reluctant to leave, command is allowed to kill those who trespass in cockpit, although crew killing someone cause AI said so is weird.

So it appears that the engine was set up by Engineer1, and then Engineer1 failed to contain it.

After this, but before the Captains announcement, Engineer 2 arrives on station. Seems to have grasped the situation pretty quickly.

The Captains only words about the engineer was frustration, while they were changing the AI’s laws, and then the announcement.

[2024-03-04 17:20:31.104] GAME-SAY: (Captain) (mob_2956) "fucking engineers" (AI Upload Chamber (113,89,2))

Enginner 2 is surprised at the escalation. Engineer 1 had to reset their game client.

(Engineer2) (mob_3082) "I LITERALLY JUST GOT HERE CAPTAIN FUCK YOU" (Arrival Shuttle Hallway (188,146,2))
(Engineer2) (mob_3082) "I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT" (Arrival Shuttle Hallway (188,146,2))

(Engineer 1 had just had two minutes of 0 inputs in the hallway)

By this point several crew had begun to organize for their captains explicit orders.

Because Engineer 1 was a traitor, they were able to have a normalish round. If you note the previous log, Engineer 2 was not an antag.

Engineer2 then made some pretty direct threats back. They did go back to engineering, and tech shed, though. This is when they were arrested by sec.

[2024-03-04 17:23:26.380] GAME-SAY: (Engineer2) (mob_3082) "EVERYONE FUCKING MUTINY THIS SHITHEAD!!" (Arrival Shuttle Hallway (188,146,2))

They were eventually released, but they did not get to play a round or even any chance to fix up Engineer 1’s mess.

As for the departures into emergency shuttle scuffle, it appears they were just in process of being validhunted by a shaft miner, and responded in self defense.

This has been looked into, and taken care of as far as I am able to.
