/tg/Station 13

First off, i'd like to say that i re-learned a lot about the game, it's mechanics, it's rules, and distinguishing NRP and LRP. I believe that i am ready.
Also feel free to ask me any further questions on discord or on the forum^^

Any previous experience administrating? Where and in what manner:
Running my...

This event may seem elaborate, but it would be really easy to pull off with just one player and one admin. Let me know if you'd like to make plans to run it and I'll draft a full script.

The Premise
Who doesn't love Italian opera? Pagliacci is a famous Italian opera that tells the story of a troupe of traveling performers in the Italian countryside. Canio, who plays the clown Pagliacci, is deeply in love with his wife Nedda, who plays the character of Columbina. Nedda, however, is having an affair with...

A somewhat well known mechanic in the game, is that you can execute someone on quite a long delay by using a gun on them point blank by targeting there mouths.

What if you could do that with other items too? With different effects just how different items have different suicide effects?

Antagonist weapons like eswords, cult blades, heretic blades, arm blades, and other very high damage weapons would be good candidates without having to have any fear of upsetting balance, but you could also implement it...

I'd like there to be a white cane item that could be held by blind characters. It'd make it clear that whomever is holding it can't see. $5 for it to be sprited and added to the game.

I'd also like for it to be crafted from an iron rod or two. $2.50 for the recipe to be added.

I'd also like for the white cane to be sold by the medbay vendor (where TTS devices are sold). $2.50 for the item to be added to the vendor.

I'd also like for the white cane to fold up so it can compactly fit in a bag or pocket...

This is either a very trivial task or something incredibly difficult. If you suck at Python, this may not work for you.

I wrote about this in coderbus, but no one got back to me (probably because I sent a wall of text), so I'm going to rescue it out of there in the hopes that one brave coder will accomplish this:

Does anyone know if it's possible to retool the UpdatePaths tool to allow multiple paths in the input field ? I was able to find Spacemaniac have it work for multiple outputs back in 2018 via ....

Make it very difficult to hit anyone with melee attacks, have a high change to stumble and fall into someone's space when you punch someone. When you try to kick someone while they are down you trip over them. Melee weapons fly out of your hands half the time you try to hit someone with em. A chance for items to slip out of your hand and go be thrown backwards (exception for pies.) Easier to knock down with punches, ect.

We have only had 3 station objectives for forever, one of which is much more underwhelming than the others.

Generally, they have the theme of needing some kind of construction, as well as some sort of interdepartmental work. Any ideas?

With the sin of gluttony.. be careful as your eyes are bigger than your stomach!

So as we all either know or don't know. The reason morphs have dissapeared from the game is because they were only obtainable from gluttonys ruin, or admin intervention. Well the gluttonys blessing got removed because coders were tired of miners self-antagging (no matter how weak they might be) and eating the ore silo. Now they're removed and we have another useless lavaland ruin...Unless you have a need for a portal that...

We should have framework that measures how far a projectile traveled before hitting it's target.

Example implementations:

Bullets and lasers that have damage falloff or rampup based on how far or close you are.
Thrown hatchets will hit handle side one an odd number of tiles traveled, or blade side on an even number. Would hit point blank, 2 tiles away, 4 tiles away, ect.

Howdy folks! I'm coming to you all here with three very simple, yet in depth requests. These will require a mapper/coder to edit the final revision of BoxStation for me. MUST be BoxStation, not interested in the new In-Rotation maps!

The following are what I'm looking for:

1: Court Room returned to Old Box format. I would like the court room in current BoxStation to be reverted back to the original layout from OldBox. This is pre-tribunal.

2: Revert IA Agent back to Lawyer. This is of course purely...

Best bartender drinks are the ones that do the funny. Whether it'd be the good, (quadriple sec, Doctor's Delight) The bad (Beepsky Smash, Neurotoxin) Or the hillarious (Nar-Sour)

So I think more drinks should have different effects. Give people reason to come to the bar on more rounds.

Acid Spit - Allows you to spit the xenomorph neurotoxin projectile. But it does no damage and is purely for the funny

Driest Martini - You are now temporarily immune from being stained by blood. Take that bubblegum!...

Determination and Peptides shall no longer be shareable!!!

Maybe Lavaland isn't natural after all...

This anomaly converts station tiles into lavaland ashen floor at a high chance, with a low chance of lava. So you'll probably see like 1 - 2 lava tiles during the entire minute its there.

If it blows without being contained. It spawns a tendril on station in its place. Dangerous. (Engi get the RCD)

If you turn it into armor. When you get hit, instead of taking the hit, an unfriendly lavaland fauna spawns from your chest. Hopefully it hurts or scares off your...

Blood-Rites is the coolest thing ever. But it has a lot of build up. Gotta collect blood like a janitor, be protected for several minutes to unleash cool spells and ultimately sacrifice nar'sie before you use it a whole lot.

It's a 10/10 in Wow factor, but a 7/10 in usefulness. Thus, I think it'd be cool if there was another way to see it. Sort of like the chamelon gun (rip you server rebooting son of a gun)

Maybe that nar'sie lavaland rune can be repurposed and give miners the ability to absorb blood...

EDIT # 2: commission taken

I am looking to commission sprite art that is intended for a botany plant ideas, bean sprouts and jumping beans . Ideally they would look similar to their real life equivalents. Sprites needed would be seed packets, hydroponics tray growing stages(freshly planted, fully mature, fully mature + harvestable), as well as the actual harvested plant.

I don't really know how much this kind of commission normally goes for, but am open to offers. Feel free to respond here or PM if...

Ability to use Astrotame to give a custom flavour text ™ to food, like one'd change their name or description with a pen.
Purely cosmetic & if it to be used on a food that has a warning taste (for instance brains or tranquility ) it should appear alongside it instead of overriding (though maybe if you make it peculiar enough, people won't pay attention to the former still).

I was thinking, being only able to craft a few things outside of walls, boots, chairs, suits and hats with bronze, i was thinking something fresh with bronze, like Bronze weapons and bronze chainmail that goes in the jumpsuit slot and gives 5 bullet and melee damage reduction. The weapons i've been thinking of is the Bludgeoning dagger, which is pretty much a tail club which can switch between puncture damage and blunt damage when you use it in hand to switch your grip. Then there's the Bronze Javelin,...

Currently, there seems to be almost no use for newscaster newspapers outside of reading and spreading fake news, which is why i decided to give the idea of a Milwall Brick weapon as a stamina damage weapon that's inbetween the boxing gloves and the holodeck E-sword in-terms of stam damage. To craft the milwall brick, you need 5 newspapers, 100 units of water and 100 units of drying agent, both in separate beakers, what would result is a ghetto holodeck E-Sword, as the milwall brick would deal 15 stamina...

Hello everyone.
as far as i have played with circuits, i think they are lacking a bit of a conveniency.

i made a short list of things that could be added/changed to make circuits more convenient/pleasing to work with

--Multiple input components
now listen i mean the fact that each shell has its own distinctive input type is cool and all, but what about making those into separate components ? heres what i thought about

. a button - simple signal input
. a switch - simple 1/0 num input(latch)
. a text bar...

SOON.

I suggest we have a central fire alarm control computer in tcomms or the bridge that can turn off-on temp sensors and open the buggers or close them throughout the station.

Would be another spot for antags to mess with the station or a malf AI, as well as clearing paths for the crew to move.

its made of the stuff, it'd be at least another avenue for the never seen before medicated sutures and other niche medical items ive only seen on the wiki.

Do you know Airbnb? Just that with dorms. You can rent dorms at a price, and there are different types of dorms.

So Basically we add a big hallway in dorms where the dorm rooms park and stay depending on how long you booked the dorm. The dorms range from a trash can, to a EXACT replica of the caps quarter.

And you can also sell normal dorm rooms to NPCs as SpaceBNBs.

You also have to stock said rooms if you do sell them with such things as, food and water, mites, 1000 mice, a fully loaded gun, the...

Yay. Dragon Ball Characters are useful again! Because they are useless!

Hopefully we get Goku Black DLC. (Frieza and Buu have been spotted on the box art)

Came up with it when playing with holodisks & projecting messages onto the altar/using the request AI presence button .

On a lot of maps, the chapel has a holopad placed as a centerpiece. A chaplain inputs the initial prayer asking for an audience, administrator chooses the form to appear as (for instance, right now AIs are a Cortana-esque thing by default but can display as Nar'Sie) and the hijinks ensue.

Currently, there is no good reason to build it instead of a vault door and it's close to a regular airlock in shape.

There is a policy discussion on maximizing antag and people asking for TC trades, because otherwise they would miss out on having a chance to make the round more interesting.

This made me think of a code solution that could potentially improve the gameplay and/or fix the issue.

The improved system would work as follows:

a) Every player gets 12 points (the number of rounstart antags), which can be distributed on the character creation screen.
b) Each spent point would increase the player's chance to...

Atmos QoL changes

Round start RPD un-wrenching upgrade
-as fast as or slightly slower than wrench
-RND can research better versions, such as one that is as fast as a power drill

Pipe vacuum
-Buildable machine after some amount research, maybe 1 map spawns
-Runs on power cell, swapped with screwdriver
-Click to grab hose, then click a pipe to begin siphoning all gasses within it
-Can be connected to a connector like a tank to suck gas out
-Rate at which it removes gas becomes slower at the extremes...

Computer virus! a staple of the real world and every game set in the future. But wait. SS13 is in the future. uh oh.

Coding in code in a game made of code.

How coding would work is in two ways. one way requires you to be smart in coding and another doesn't. the smart one is just writing it yourself. the other one though is a more fill-in-the-blank, this one allows you to either select from presets, order a special crate from cargo, or type in a general idea and it will try to find a preset the closest...

Anybody else watch this? It's sort of blown up in the zeitgeist recently as being one of the few actual good shows left on television. The third season premieres in a couple of days.
