/tg/Station 13

Let's do this but after 5 negative ratings you get banned for a month

No longer will players be subjected to the admin tyranny, tg will be administrated by the people through democracy, as it should be

If a human law 2'd you to jump off a bridge would you do it

I like it, however the mechanic isn't well explained and there's no feedback that'd allow players to learn not to ignore bodies and gibs, granted this was an issue with miasma too At the very least an examine message that tells the body is rotting, but personally I'd like to see a visual overlay tha...

Ultimately none of these proposed nerfs really make oxygen scarcity more interesting, at best they're encouraging rushing spare tanks for fear of being left without one, or hoping atmos will do their job (funfact: if you're in a situation where air is a station-wide problem, there's a 95% chance of ...

I think it'd be an interesting thing to try but it should be done on a completely new server rather than try to force it on an existing community, then we'll know if there's any real interest in it if it doesn't become a ghost town after a week

this just proves it

Spraypainting an ethereal in the face should change their light color

Eh, call it whatever but what I meant is chef still has an obligation to the crew and the tourists aren't the only (nor primary) focus of the job, but I agree with everything else

i'm more on the side of waiting to see if the current tourist changes were enough of a deterrent but I should say that fucking with someones arcade machine isn't their job or anything but fucking with the chef's income is their entire jobs gameplay loop (yes its become their gameplay loop because b...

The noise and the frequency they spam messages needs a serious toning down, I'm not surprised people keep killing them

It's not a test for bigotry it's a test for not being an asshole on the internet, which is relevant because Rule 1 exists

So my policy suggestion is to just ban people for rule 1 instead so we don't need to have this conversation anymore

Dumb test. If you’d feel comfortable screaming the innocuous words you just typed on a crowded street, I would venture that you suffer from a mental illness. It's posts like this that convince me no amount of changing the rules' vague wording is going to suffice since there's people incapable of un...

Then you might just be the guy this rule is trying to get rid of

If you wouldn't be comfortable with screaming at the top of your lungs in a crowded street what you're about to type on your keyboard, consider the pros and cons of not typing it at all and you won't have any fear of getting banned This is just a simple life lesson from little old me on how to not t...

same

I really like this art style, makes me wish I still played on bagil

It’s kinda a shame the only way we could get a clamp on chain murderboning every round to the point where most people instantly gear up is by attaching a bunch of other MRP hoopla to make it distinct enough or whatever, meaning now I have to deal with people interested in playing 4+ hour rounds if ...

It's super inconsistent between HUD themes but for several of them the buttons to toggle combat mode on/off look nearly identical at a glance and it's hard to tell whether it's enabled or not

The person that made quirks isn't around anymore and on that note I am 90% positive I'm the person who has made and reworked the most quirks out of everyone else, I'm also going by what's been cited numerous times by maintainers and the caveat for them being merged was that they'd be an optional fea...

We can argue for hours whether this or that quirk is worth 1 or 2 points but the fact is we'd both be talking out of our ass because they were never intended to be balanced with one another like you're making a character build in an RPG and the points system only exists to stop positive quirks from ...

Give mothpeople the ability to hide inside wallets

I will win the election

I got mine like a month and a half after I got the email with the tracking number

I disagree but you asked for a quote

The PR in question states that negative quirks were impossible to create despite the fact we have a billion negative quirks and barely any positives, this just made everything harder to balance instead of adjusting the few outliers that were unbalanced just by altering their mechanics. You may as we...

Yes because it uses the metric system

he killed tralezab

Not as good as him but good

Then they'll have to work harder or blame all of the other station threats for doing a bad job

Generally I'd like to see major round ending threats like cult, revolution and nuke ops to be extremely unlikely to spawn before the hour mark or so, to give the round a proper escalation of threats as time goes on and hopefully bring the round to a natural conclusion instead of having to call the s...

They keep messing with the air conditioner

I think one downgrade of the current bounty system has been no longer having cargo techs running around asking people to fill bounties, which was a pretty good system to push people to cooperate. It's also been mentioned that one of the biggest annoyances of the system is having to constantly run ba...

Roleplaying and creating interesting situations and conflicts takes time, which can't be done when cult can and will steamroll the station in the span of 10 minutes, it has little to do with roleplay and a lot to do with dictating the round's pace In simple terms cult is a shitty gamemode in terms o...

Imagine turning dorms into the best corpse hiding spot because if someone breaks down the door they get banned People that are so lazy and predictable should not be getting a free pass from getting caught. If someone's going around constantly checking locked rooms when there's nothing going on it's ...

I think you could keep intercoms working as they do, and I imagine they'd still be the most common way to call for help or get the attention of the AI, but assuming you even manage to reach one in time there's no longer the guarantee that every person on the server is going to hear it. So I suppose ...

Having a constant lifeline to the entire crew is terrible for intrigue, paranoia and mystery; something that is allegedly what most gamemodes are based on. Over the years it has caused antag balance to hinge on being able to shut down your victim instantly to avoid being called out over the radio wh...

The "Remove Persistent Painting" option is supposed to remove it permanently if it doesn't work then nobody ever reported it

https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/ ... #L395-L421

missed this thread somehow

teaches you to steal coder shoes

The way that persistent paintings work is already poorly documented. The only information I could find on the subject is a page that I wrote for the wiki that has next to no info on persistence or removing paintings from rotation. You need to remove an existing painting and place the new painting o...

I've made a couple adminhelps about this in the past and even made at least one policy thread and the tl;dr is every admin has a different opinion about this and you're going to get wildly different results whenever it comes up in ahelps To my understanding monkeys being always valid was official po...

I think if anything manuel shows there's a lot of deep rooted balance issues if the public availability of a console is all it takes for it to turn the entire crew in the perfect validhunting machine. It's a self fulfilling prophecy that longer rounds drag on as they do when the crew gets so strong ...

The naming policy is one of the most notoriously vague and inconsistently enforced rules we have why did it need an extra layer

⋅ Sec codes contain considerably less information than a real language, and are almost always accompanied by english plaintext which gives away their meaning ⋅ Intercepting security communcations often takes literally no effort, at most it takes 2 TC, and security has literally ...

I've been skimming but this thread seems mostly focused on whether or not it's easy to learn the codes rather than the actual benefit of requiring every player to memorize them lest they find themselves at a disadvantage, other than "it's kinda neat". As it's been stated there's very good ...

I think this generally falls into the "no random searches without probable cause" rule that also applies to LRP, implants are a stealthy tool but if you've done something for security to suspect you then clearly something's gone wrong already A more interesting IC approach to this issue wo...

Macros are not a bug or an exploit. The game is programmed to take inputs, and other programs that can facilitate macros to provide said inputs are common and freely available to anyone that wants to use them. If they were deliberately obscured, or if BYOND had some deliberate mechanism to block ma...
