Talk:Vehicle (3.5e Subtype)

Is Franken Kessy still around?

Cause I wanted to mess with the subtype's traits a bit. Specifically Cargo Space, which lacks any information about what it is. Does anyone oppose me taking over? I'll try and see what, if anything, this effects for things I didn't make. -- Eiji-kun (talk) 02:51, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

There's some weirdly specific stuff for a subtype of such variety here. Drop Cargo Space, that's an entry-specific feature. Drop/alter sensors: make mention of may provide skill bonuses or something. Alter the skill thing to be something like "requires a skill check to operate as per the creature's entry" or some such. Considering it looks like Sulacu's Gyro might be the earliest (I care not to check them all) well before this subtype was made and doesn't use all the feature's listed, it's fair to say some changes are probably in order here. Just make sure that any changes are reflected on any creature articles that use such rules and imply them as such. --Ganteka Future (talk) 03:27, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Drop a message on his talk Eiji - better to reach him there than here. If you hear nothing for a few days, go ahead. - Tarkisflux ^Talk 03:30, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Yeah there is much I dislike about the current subtype and I will probably do just what you said Gan. I'm gonna check the non-Eiji articles to see how badly things are changed, but it probably shouldn't be much. I was gonna change cargo space to "cockpit", since really the one defining feature of vehicles is that you can ride them, right? Something like "riders gain either partial or total cover as creature entry indicates, an can hold up to X inside it" or something. -- Eiji-kun (talk) 03:51, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Its Alive!

It is unlikely that I will return often, however will grant stewardship on this page conditionally. If the bot subtype was economized for ease of use and developed into more creatures I would be agreeable to a joint venture here. Take what you earn. --Franken Kesey (talk) 13:29, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Understood! I'll give Bot a look-over too, maybe there are bot subtyped creatures I can make from there. I'll do my best to retain the spirit of things. -- Eiji-kun (talk) 19:40, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Changes are made, far as I can tell there is no problems with interacting with old articles via a vis the changes themselves. Except perhaps possible lacks of mention on crew. Most of that can be made obvious though from fluff so it's a low priority issue I think. Bots will be looked at a bit later. -- Eiji-kun (talk) 00:58, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

Salvage

I've begun the salvage operation. This one is pretty safe considering I've worked on it and plenty of things use it, but in case it needs to be said I am also officially adopting this page. -- Eiji-kun (talk) 01:02, 10 July 2019 (MDT)

I think the option to operate them with a Knowledge (Engineering) check should be added. --The bluez in the dungeon (talk) 14:47, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
