/tg/Station 13

Hey pubby what is your atmos system based on? Would it be faster than what we use in the current game? I was also brainstorming aboubt other ways to implement atmos. It was incompressible navier stokes loosely based on this paper except with integer math instead of floats. It's been a few months so...

I entertained the idea of making a SS13 remake too a few months back. I didn't get very far, but I did develop an atmospheric implementation and most of the netcode. I got sick of the project once I started adding Lua scripting, so that's where I stopped. Looking back, it was naive to think that I c...

Remove PK borgs and give the service borg a pie cannon.

why hasn't anyone made the solars deadly yet

PACMAN too

Looks like the warden's bin wasn't connected at all.

Good find.

i hope that our few remaining friends
give up on trying to save us

i hope we come up with a fail-safe plot
to piss off the dumb few that forgave us

i hope the fences we mended
fall down beneath their own weight

and i hope we hang on past the last exit
i hope it's already too late

I don't think it's possible to have well-defined escalation rules without bringing back some form of space law.

you should consider putting your shuttle on the shuttle manipulator This is in the upcoming update. The engineers yesterday complained that the Tesla is impossible to start because of bad wiring (emitters not starting). Don't know how it really is, but you might wanna look into that I've checked an...

The windows equivalent would be autohotkey or autoit I guess.

Also, I dunno if you're doing this or not, but you should run your images through an aggressive pngquant (or similar tool) before uploading. That will cut down on filesize.

I whipped up a bash script to automate the imaging process. It takes screenshots of DreamMaker at different positions and stitches them together. Example result: http://s21.postimg.org/m0h14bm2t/stitched.png #!/bin/bash # Original size of the map. # You must resize the map to 400x400 before running ...

I wouldn't say three tiles is far away in terms of kitchen to botany, as it allows room for the proper foyer entrance that I find to be cool. I was measuring the distance from the microwaves. Maybe give the chef a plant bag? That would make carrying ingredients from the fridge to the big table easi...

Kitchen is far away from hydroponics and the bar which is concerning.

@crux I've taken note of your security tips. cryogenics only has one tube and oxygen canister? There's a second cryo tube and port now. security looks like it was inspired by asteroidstation's security. did you play on asteroid back when it was v7? the best version? i did. those were good times. thi...

Thanks, that should work.

You attract negative attention because of your character's name and naked blue lizard shtick. I think you'd be regarded as a pretty fun/likable player if you ditched your identity and played fully-clothed humans for awhile. You certainly wouldn't get ahelped as often.

The map has been merged! If you like the map then set it to your favorite in map preferences.

How does one test gamemodes locally? I'd like to be able to spoof 20+ player populations to see if roles get assigned properly, but I can't figure out how to do that.

I noticed a "populate world" button, but mobs spawned with that button don't count as real players.

"Girl with a Pearl Earring"

Also, I'm not sure how doable it would be to change, but having escape next to arrivals poses issues for administration since we generally tell antags to stay away from arrivals to prevent spawncamping and frustrating deaths as soon as people join, but since escape is a very densely populated area ...

A pull request for this map is on Github.

You can comment on it here or there.

The best looking part of BirdBoat is the space moat between security and medbay. If you can do something like this then please, please, please, do. It looks extremely nice and is much more interesting than yet another maintenance tunnel. http://i.imgur.com/WZXzMVD.png Even just vision into surgery a...

I decided to redo medbay for the third time. This new version is more compact and allowed me to move engineering up 2 tiles. http://i.imgur.com/yDdrQmj.png I made science smaller too. The EXPERIMENTOR room got combined with the testing lab, which is kinda silly but I think it will work out. Fun bonu...

It's not a memorable quote if you can't remember the words.

Drag the shoe sprite to your empty hand.

Did some work on medbay.

Medbay's layout is like a miniature version of the station's layout. It's like poetry; they rhyme.

I like it! It reminds me of a sleek office building. OfficeStation13 anyone?

Not sure if I like the upper part of the bridge though - it's very hallway-esque. Maybe you could move the telecom lobby down and expand the bridge in that area?

PubbyStation is a new map in rotation on Basil and Sybil. >>MAP IMAGE<< The idea was to create a lowpop map derived from my favorite parts of Box and Meta. The design is similar to both of those maps so hopefully that makes it non-controversial and easy to learn. This thread is for feedback and comp...

Borgs have their own stupidly powerful AOE stun in the form of welder bombs. Welder bombs and flashes are about equal in strength.

Most chefs will give you the items you want when asked. If you break in instead of communicating you have to accept the chance of getting dunked. They are stunned by shutters now. Should I throw them out? No, they might try entering again. They might try calling security. They must die. I've thrown ...

I play chef regularly and have grown to despise whetstones. Earlier today I played a round where the captain barged in while I was cooking, shot me with disablers, then dragged me to the HoP office to confiscate my gear and demote me to zero access. His reason?: I used up one of the whetstones to sh...

Poor communication from security is a pretty terrible, awful thing for all parties involved. It's not fun to play security when officers go solo vigilante and ignore questions like "why is this person set to arrest?" or "should I release this person from the brig?" on the radio. ...

This can probably be closed. D&B was unbanned (from what I can tell) and I'm not riled up anymore. The previous post I made was targeted at Kor. It's pretty cynical to assume that people use adminhelps for banbaiting and it didn't feel very good to be accused of such. Actually, I think this whol...

From my perspective as the mime: I start the round as the mime and head to medbay to wave hello to people. The chemist there says she'll make me space lube if I do a dance, so I do a dance and she gives me lube. As I leave medbay I hear a bunch of people are yelling on the radio at the HoP because h...
