Make seer unique so now 2 seer can't destroy every evil

I did not copy this, I just saw someone speak about this in the lobby.
I will tell more on why i would make this suggestion.
Seer will be less op since 2 seer can just check a person twice and it would be overall unbalanced also the fact it would be double efficient. (I will read each and everything you will say and maybe i could make better suggestions in the future with better grammar)
If you anything else to say please let me know.

this is stupid

drowsy pecan
#

As a bandage? Sure.

#

As the final fix? Hell nah

solar path
#

we have good final fixes

#

we dont need fucking bandages

drowsy pecan
#

Deputy was made unique as a bandage and it’s a whole hell of a lot less problematic than seer

solar path
#

deputy doesnt have good final fixes

sleek whale
#

Peak suggestion

solar path
#

other than outlaw

sleek whale
#

Let me cook

solar path
#

and outlaw requires a lot of shit

drowsy pecan
#

How do you change seer without it just being a stronger sheriff

#

Or a weaker sheriff

solar path
#

make it half as fast

#

and the only cop ti that bypasses detection immunity

#

every other night it gains info

#

and it cant recheck ever

drowsy pecan
#

Weaker sheriff that can detect one more thing

#

In ranked

solar path
#

it can hardconf townies easily

#

even with half the speed of sher

drowsy pecan
#

Discounting illu/bookholder, so can sheriff

#

And I’d assume this proposed seer change would also be weak to illusionist

upper harness
drowsy pecan
#

So that means it’s a sheriff at half speed that can only catch a single more evil

upper harness
#

i feel like your just trolling

#

(not you hyper)

midnight badge
drowsy pecan
#

Well ofc when I troll I do it well enough that you can’t tell CursedSoul

upper harness
#

nunny shut this down someone just made this fucking suggestion

#

this is a troll

upper harness
#

no like litterally these are 14 minutes apart @midnight badge

solar path
#

sher cant confirm 2 townies

midnight badge
#

Well idk if they are necessarily trolling

royal canopy
#

ti shouldn't be unique because ti are inherently supposed to be safe claims

midnight badge
#

mhm

solar path
#

and also gateways to leading town

midnight badge
#

TIs are pretty good fake claims I feel, they are really good for making bold plays and going for mislynches

#

yyup

#

Seer is a stupid strong fake claim

#

detection immunity

drowsy pecan
#

One singular role

#

The bookholder

upper harness
drowsy pecan
#

One.

solar path
#

and the bookholder can change

drowsy pecan
#

Being able to see a single more person is not fucking worth only being able to do it at half speed

solar path
#

being able to see that person is what allows you to confidently hard conf

drowsy pecan
#

Illusionist

#

Enchanter

#

Screw your new seer over really hard

#

Not a bad thing

#

But you can’t say it’s stronger than sheriff

solar path
#

its not supposed to be

drowsy pecan
#

Yeah but it should be on the level of sheriff

#

Actually, it should be on the level of tracker

solar path
drowsy pecan
#

No the fuck it isn’t

#

???

solar path
#

trading the hard outting evils for the capacity to hardconf townies

#

and speed

#

hardconfing townies is huge

drowsy pecan
#

Sheriff can confirm townies… there’s a reason you recheck ppl

solar path
#

not in the current detection immunity state

drowsy pecan
#

Seer could honestly just get scrapped

solar path
#

we dont delete roles

drowsy pecan
#

Why not

solar path
#

until they absolutely deserve it

drowsy pecan
#

Seer does

true sandal
#

seer, psychic and sheriff do the same thing

solar path
#

psychic can get yeeted to apocalypse

#

seer can work

true sandal
#

the difference is how they do it

#

oh yeah and that seer is strictly better than both

drowsy pecan
#

I’ve been making a rework of everything in the game, and TI can easily be tuned down to 5

#

Invest seer and sheriff are unneeded

true sandal
#

invest?

solar path
#

invest and psy arent needed

true sandal
#

isn't percept

#

role lookout

drowsy pecan
#

Yeah

#

I added it onto spy

true sandal
#

hm

solar path
#

spy can make a far better percept user

#

i dont like percept as is

true sandal
drowsy pecan
#

There are also 6 TSes though

#

I might try to tune that down more

solar path
#

tav ret socialite admirer

#

4

drowsy pecan
#

No I mean in my rework of the game

#

Only 5 not 6 I mean

solar path
#

...

#

why do you add roles

drowsy pecan
#

Pros and crus are now reworked into TSes and admi is removed

solar path
#

this game doesnt need new roles

drowsy pecan
#

I didn’t add so much as move

solar path
#

crus can work as a tp

#

its simple as hell

#

pros just needs to get deleted

drowsy pecan
#

I just made crus into bouncer

solar path
#

we have enough vote increasers

solar path
drowsy pecan
#

Socialite is just admi reflavored

solar path
#

...

drowsy pecan
solar path
#

this is rb and control immune

drowsy pecan
#

No cause there’s a priority now

solar path
#

no it is

true sandal
#

oh yeah Hyper wants the priority thing

drowsy pecan
#

I made it. It isn’t.

solar path
#

rbs and controls go first

solar path
#

thats not possible mechanically

true sandal
#

it is

drowsy pecan
#

It’s a video game. Anything is possible mechanically

true sandal
#

but uhhh

solar path
true sandal
#

it would need for each abillity to have an specific priority

solar path
#

the priority is hardcoded

true sandal
#

which is lots of works

drowsy pecan
#

Just recode things (yes this is easier said than done but not impossible I’d assume)

true sandal
solar path
#

literally everything would need to get recoded

drowsy pecan
#

Because tav being roleblock immune is stupid and only exists to prevent paradoxes

true sandal
#

ye

solar path
#

oh that nvm

#

i thought you wanted poisoner to lose its immunities

true sandal
#

tav would be rb immune to other tavs though

#

otherwise paradox happens and crash yay

solar path
true sandal
#

unless each player has a randomized priority

#

and the game has a coded in paradox breaker

solar path
#

rbs and controls only affect the actions below them in priority

#

oh joy theyre here

sleek whale
#

DAMN SIX IN AN HOUR

#

I feel famous

#

I love attention

true sandal
#

anyways

#

here's a song

sleek whale
#

Anyways lemme check the comments to check how much i messed up

true sandal
#

why is witch last

sleek whale
#

ENGLISH IS NOT MY FIRST LENGUAGE

drowsy pecan
#

The manipulation priority of my overhaul goes as follows:

  1. Starspawn
  2. Crusader
  3. Jailor
  4. Auditor
  5. Poisoner
  6. Tavern Keeper
  7. Shroud
  8. Witch
  9. Transporter
  10. Bodyguard

#

THEY TEACH US "HAVE" IN FUCKING HIGHSCHOOL

true sandal
#

i love this gif

drowsy pecan
#

Attack-only

wild trailBOT
#

@solar path has leveled up! (48 ➜ 49)

true sandal
#

transporter doesn't exist hyper

solar path
#

why is witch below the rbers

#

why is witch below half the roles

true sandal
drowsy pecan
#

Because witch doesn’t need to be RB immune

solar path
#

it literally does

true sandal
#

why is crus above roleblockers

#

oh yeah ur crus

drowsy pecan
#

Crus is a roleblocker

solar path
#

you have a fundamental misunderstanding how controls work

drowsy pecan
#

Yeah

#

You make one person target another

#

It’s not rocket science

true sandal
#

why is jailor rb immune

#

ad control immune

drowsy pecan
#

Jailor is a roleblocker

#

And it’s not control immune

solar path
drowsy pecan
#

Or roleblock immune

true sandal
#

you do know how priority works right hyper

solar path
#

you cancel their ability

true sandal
#

in the code

solar path
#

regardless of their immunities

sleek whale
solar path
#

unless theyre specifically designed to go before you

#

because like roleblocks

#

controls can only affect the actions below it

midnight badge
#

an evil bluffing a seer is very good

true sandal
#

but

#

yeah fair

#

wait no i agree with u

#

anyways

midnight badge
#

That’s so me

solar path
#

1 Necromancer
2 Lich
3 Retributionist
4 Starspawn
5 Socialite
6 Shroud
6 Witch
8 Puppeteer
9 Auditor/Poisoner/Tavern Keeper/Dreamweaver
10 Plaguebearer/Shadowspawn/Artist/Psychic

drowsy pecan
solar path
#

this is a priority list that works mechanically

solar path
solar path
#

but for apoc

true sandal
#

can we not have non-official roles for now

#

so everything goes

#

smoothly

solar path
#

nein

#

i will reference my apoc

true sandal
#

great argument

#

but

#

@midnight badge close Faketier's Apoc thread until he stops using them as examples!

solar path
#

nunny dont

true sandal
#

do it Nuggy!

solar path
#

NEIN

true sandal
#

YA

#

no but fr let's use only roles in the mod for now

solar path
#

yeah sure

drowsy pecan
sleek whale
#

Did not realise someone made the same suggestion

#

Just saw someone speak about this in the lobby

solar path
#

you think in tabletop terns

#

terms

#

this is a video game

true sandal
#

like

solar path
#

nigh impossible

#

like hell in earth

true sandal
#

yeah

#

good example

#

it's like trying to do ur excel thingies

#

and then

#

you have 340958340958 paradoxes

midnight badge
#

I mean paradoxes by nature are something that computers shit and die about, but humans can deal with easily

true sandal
#

and you have to make a cases for them

sleek whale
#

What if seer cannot check the same person that the the other seer checked?

midnight badge
#

its like the entire halting problem

true sandal
#

for each paradox

solar path
#

its why rb immunity has a paradox/mechanic need is only for games

true sandal
#

but that's not all

midnight badge
#

that would literally confirm seers are real

sturdy ingot
solar path
#

tell that to wheatley

sturdy ingot
midnight badge
#

LOL

sleek whale
solar path
#

it is already near impossible due to the sheer number of visit checkers

#

the payoff is good if you take the risk

sleek whale
#

Seer is impossible to balance

solar path
#

but a lot of the time

#

it spells instant death

sleek whale
#

How the fuck do you balance seer

solar path
#

make it half as fast

sturdy ingot
#

Permanently removing seer targets is 😨

solar path
#

not only can it hardconf townies by bypassing detection immunity

#

it bypasses detection immunity

solar path
#

its a step in the right direction

sturdy ingot
#

I know it's just like

#

That feels huge

#

Alongside removing targetting revealed roles

true sandal
#

make so if seer checks 2 townies, seer kills both of them (real)

sturdy ingot
#

Seer can insta confirm 1 townie/evil per revealed TPOW fr 💅

#

(5 evils go bye bye)

sleek whale
#

What if you can use seer ability 4 times

true sandal
#

charges are a bandage fix

Roleblocker roleblocking a roleblocker: Second roleblocker stays home

Controller controlling a roleblocker into that same roleblocker: That roleblocker stays home

Controller controlling a roleblocker into the controller: The controller stays home and the roleblocker does their normal action

Two controllers moving the same player: Higher in the priority works, but both visit

Two roleblockers roleblocking each other: both stay home

Controller controlling a controller: the second controller will actually control the first controller’s second target into the second controller’s normal second target

#

Believe that’s most of the paradoxes accounted for

#

Delete seer

sleek whale
#

DELETED SEER

drowsy pecan
drowsy pecan
sturdy ingot
#

Not how you described it

#

You said "First Controller's Target"

#

That's the Second Controller

drowsy pecan
#

Yeah

#

No

#

It’s the other person

true sandal
drowsy pecan
#

I worded it weirdly

sturdy ingot
#

You didn't say that

#

That would be Second Target

#

Or Target's Target

drowsy pecan
#

There ya go

#

Fixed

#

First controller’s second target

true sandal
#

that's a bigass line of code that has to be made specificaly for each interaction, and will make your code more complex and way slower

drowsy pecan

#

Make seer unable to be protected it would be harder to fake claim as but easy to kill

true sandal
#

coding is about always doing the most optimized and quick thing possible

#

so you have more space to make more things

drowsy pecan

#

Which is shit

true sandal
sturdy ingot
#

Really balances Doc which would otherwise be an OP role and the best in the game

#

Doc literally carries the game, Jailor quivers in his tiny little boots when he thinks of Doc

true sandal
#

btw a really good example of unoptimized code is Geometry Dash

#

like

#

it's really really bad

#

i think it got better though with the new update

#

now we have actualy consistent physics for all Refresh Rates

solar path
#

also balancewise even dumber than you claim Immunities are

drowsy pecan
sturdy ingot
#

How could I be kidding?
Doctor is clearly the best role in the game.
He LITERALLY stops his target dying at night!
He LITERALLY visits his target at night!
He LITERALLY can give himself basic defense once.

#

What other role could even SLIGHTLY compare?

true sandal
#

he can spam heal his target
