/tg/Station 13

I don't even need to look at a thread on here to know whats going to be said anymore

I like the new sprites way better. The old ones made me look like a dumb idiot rather than a cool security officer. You've been nicely improving the new stuff, so I dunno why you'd want the old sprites to even come back.

Also the security gasmask is cool.

Giving the Chef the ability to add stuff to the vending machines is a good idea, but Chefs shouldn't be required to do that. I doubt people would trust the added food either. Personally, when I'm Chef I like when people eat by the counter (I make stools).

It might be too slow. These things are hard to gauge alone. Jetpacking might also be too slow specifically, but I feel my "nuke ops don't form teams because they can't follow each other" theory is at least plausible enough to try for a week. Can you please post some news, a week has elaps...

Ergo it's not so bad, I don't enjoy the monster fighting so I just mine around the edges, still get mad loots and it's zero risk See, that's the problem. In my mind, the fact that you can gain mad loots for zero risk is abhorrent to me. Of course, most people have the opposite viewpoint. It's playi...

At this point the only reason I'm interested in this is so I can fuck over four people as a huge ass monster. Nothing is more satisfying than ruining a hunters day.

The Virologist should also get permission before releasing anything.

Here is what I think. The Head of Personal should be 2nd in command and above every head except the HoS who answers directly to the captain, do that and then it would be fair to hold him to a higher standard. Because right now the stick is too short for the HoP to not get the short end of it. I als...

As long as people don't complain about the odd or shitty food I make currently. Giving food certain effects seems nice, but it can limit what the chef wants to do. I don't want people hopping the tabling (and getting crushed) because I won't make magical healing bread.

The new heist to free Hoxton has crazy good rewards for the minimal stuff you need to do.

You guys can always learn the code (cosmetic stuff is easy) to edit and put things back in so they're acceptable. Literally all Paprika is and has been doing.

Where's the voting result progress? Is it hidden until the end?

QuartzCrystal wrote:Due to the vote being held ingame, it isn't possible (unless I'm wrong here) to prevent coders or admins voting in it.

Will codermins at least be forced to stick to a side then?

Have we figured out if people who belong to more groups get more than one vote? EDIT: Here's a question though, are we all OK with people who belong to multiple groups voting multiple times essentially? Like, there are some people who are players, coders and admins. Everyone should pick a side and s...

Where's the option that makes the vote happen in the first place? The toilets gotta get flushed sooner or later.

I require a cockroach sprite. Make it around the size of a mouse.

I don't like how the bar/kitchen is setup. Too formal, slightly big, and it's in the open.

Since the game was based on Alien, I think the nest was just a homage to the cut eggmorphing scene. The queen in Aliens didn't make a lot of scene either, since the eggs still came from the derelict ship on LV-426. It's likely that a queen just mutates from a drone while the other drones turn into t...

We'll just use Singulo as a substitute then?

There's less Sec Officers than assistants, so waiting in the HoP line for maint isn't a big hassle. Next you're gonna tell me they should just have all access because they can't be antags.

From what I observed after this change you have: -Assistants going braindead. Dunno if it's happening more frequently. -HoP getting burnt out on the job/access changes. -Jobs being overfilled. -Clown slots opening up more? -More holes to get into maint. -A nice, empty maint. Seems more dangerous now...

I agree with Steelpoint. Honestly I've never seen the maintenance access as the problem. If I'm playing as the chef and some grey fucks try to jump into my kitchen, what the fuck does it matter if they have maint? Most shit happens in the halls or department break-ins.

EDIT: Here's a question though, are we all OK with people who belong to multiple groups voting multiple times essentially? Like, there are some people who are players, coders and admins. Everyone should pick a side and stick to it. I assume player's won't have sway on any admin or coder votes, so i...

They look nice in the dark, where they should be. Stop being a dingus.

This shit is already toggled you dingus. Who wants to be a head anyway? It's not like people actually give a shit. Just the other day the HoP made me the replacement HoP, and I was playing a Lizardperson. I'm still disappointed in Ikarrus for jumping the gun here.

Lizards shouldn't have human names.

Reverting this would be a good idea. Hivemind had a chance to make rounds less boring, and now it's just a full on snooze fest.

MisterPerson wrote:Could also flat out cap the number of people who can join a round. Do we want 90 people on one server or 50 on one and 40 on the other?

Unless the cap didn't count observing people, I wouldn't like this. Not everyone in the server is playing.

Antonkr wrote:Like I said departments can be expanded to allow more job slots.

We'd also need a bigger map, and more supplies to go with a change like this.

You can't remove assistants until you increase the job threshold. We get 95 players now, get with it.

Don't forget that every officer can use different methods of dealing with people. If someone is going to act like an asshole off the bat then you're gonna have a bad day with me. Polite crewmembers who don't waste both of our time can get off the hook very easily. Plus who knows, maybe I'll get some...

Pepper-spraying space racists as sec is fun times for all.

Screw what I said before, after a fun as fuck Alien event just a few minutes ago, I agree that we should:

7chan all over again. Will end the same way too.

Also people seem to forget that some Sec members are tasked with guarding a few of the major departments. This partnership can open them up to options such as: yellow jello gloves, a kick ass mecha, superpowers, or a cute 'lil hat. Is it powergaming because the peeps of that department give you perk...

I think murderboning is alright, unless it's lowpop. I really don't want to see more rounds turn into double agent or changeling levels of boring.

Wait, people are seriously saying it's "powergaming" to take note of who's working toxins? Not bursting into toxins being all "I HEARD YOU WERE MAKING BOMBS PERMA JUST IN CASE," just... making a note, with the security cameras that 50% of the warden's entire job is to monitor, t...

ITS THE END

I just ignore anything that isn't the stations functions or my fellow enlightened drone friends. Skittering into a room to fix a something by a dead dude is the best.

Plasmavores are terrible, come up with something better (more unique) please. Maybe you want some advice from someone into creature design? You can certainly post any advice you have, you don't need to ask for permission. Ok then. If you really want to replace Xenos, but keep the same vibe along wi...

I usually do this when I play a borg. If more than one person is in equal danger, I have to save both, so I sit there coming up with a way to do it.

Smashing the glass to the Captain's laser and teleporting out for extra room security. :^)

I don't like the horn things. What was wrong with the other default lizardman sprite?

I don't see a problem with borgs being able to name themselves. In Star Wars the droids are usually just numbers and letters, but they form names appropriate for the characterization given. It's pretty much their culture. Anyway, I don't wanna use that word, but you guys are being it right now. Orga...

If you have to forget everything that happened, what's going to stop people from just knowing everything anyway? Not round specifics, but the start of the round information you can use. Your characters personality shouldn't just vanish right? So, say you're paranoid, savvy, intelligent, etc at round...

In terms of balance I think the, "a dev is too good at this so the changes might be biased," can apply to SS13. The larger problem isn't speed, but the Stun Wars this game likes to call combat.

Also don't forget that before you get scanned you can remember the events before it anyway. The station has many tools to log a journal, or just keep scanning every ten to fifteen minutes. Sure, you'd never know who or what killed you, but maybe you could narrow it down. For example, say you're the ...

You guys make it seem like getting antag is a big deal. Maybe to some, and I do think it's cool to have the roles that help the station get more priority. But they can also enjoy a swarm of assistants taking part in a good hunt for 'em. Does anyone have the max population all the jobs (except assist...
