If chemistry isn't manned how are they going to make the chems to dump into the lathe?

If chemistry is manned why would they bother dumping chems into the lathe instead of just making their own brute/burn patches?

I like melee the best because it's the only smash game my favourite characters are good in

All the smash games are pretty fun imo, although brawl feels super slow compared to the others.

This thread is kinda adorable haha. It's always nice to see new people learning the game.

Which jobs (that you've tried) were easiest/hardest to pick up?
Which were the most/least helpful wiki pages?

Could you make it so printing items from departmental lathes requires access to that department? It would allow engineering/science to make more boards without allowing them to just build them all for themselves. If someone wanted to build all the lathes for themself in a space fort or whatever it's...

They are locked behind a set amount of time iirc, same as head roles. It's been a long time since I was new though so maybe that's changed or I'm misremembering. It's impossible to force people to read anything. Same as EULAs, people will just check off that they read it without actually doing so. I...

That's a joke thread from April Fools Day...

The comments on Techwebs have generally gone as follows: 1) i haven't played since the update, how do you techwebs 2) (someone explains how techwebs work/are automated) 3) wow i really hate that We probably shouldn't be changing the system based on the feedback of a player that hasn't actually play...

I've seen mostly positive feedback in game, so please don't act like everybody who plays the game is against this change just because you personally oppose it. What? I play on Bagil and I've seen mostly negative feedback. What feedback are you seeing? I should have been more clear I guess. Neutral ...

What would it be used for, other than tracking monkies/swarmers that get into the vents? (if you can see ventcrawlers)

How do I fid out if an antag won or not. (I had to leave mid round so I camped out in a escape pod) This is the wrong thread for that. Try this site: https://atlantaned.space/statbus/round.php You can try to find what you're looking for there. I don't think you can check if an individual traitor wo...

It was initially closed because of the freeze, got reopened about 22 hours later, then merged 2 hours after that because it had technically been about a day since it was initially opened.

The prolathes should definitely have sorting or categories of some kind, it's difficult to look through the giant list of stuff if you don't know the name of what you're looking for. It's probably not possible with the current UI systems, but a visualized tech tree would be nice so you can see what ...

Could removing the numbers showing how many people have picked a job/the lobby crew manifest help with that? Obviously it wouldn't matter with heads, as if you can join as one there can't already be someone playing it. But people wouldn't play assistant because there aren't any sec officers or whate...

Idk if this what you're looking for, but here's some random tips for making medicine. You can make cryoxadone/clonexadone or mutagen in one beaker in like 10 seconds. It makes me sad when I see people manually making it all using the little 30u bottles you can print from the chemmaster. 1. Set the i...

It is very difficult to balance blob when there is a weapon that instantly wins the round for the crew. Most blob rounds/events end up as a binary "Does the crew have Xrays? If so they win, if not they lose". which isn't interesting for the crew or the blob.

The math required to use telesci absolutely does not require external tools Sure, but why would you ever do it in your head which is slower and has a chance to be incorrect when perfectly efficient and correct tools exist and are incredibly accessible? Anyways I'm not disagreeing with any of you gu...

Well I know it sounds bad but it's not like he provided a proper reason for it. And playing a caveman doesn't really hurt anyone or violate the rules of the server Rule 3 Precedents. Excessively OOC names fall under rule 3. Make a minimum effort to have your name fit in a setting involving a wacky ...

The math required to use telesci absolutely does not require external tools, it's taught in like grade 9 and doesn't need anything more than basic addition/subtraction and division/multiplication skills. It's just a basic linear function, y=mx + b. All you do if figure out the slope (when I set it o...

I kinda like the idea of gasses that make the SM produce more power at the cost of making it more dangerous to work on (instead of more likely to delaminate). Maybe one could increase power output and cause anomalies to start spawning at lower power levels, but also at a slower rate so they're easie...

Do any of these new gasses interact with the SM at all?

Rooms don't cycle air unless they need to. You can either cause a breach (pressure will drop and new air from the distro will be pumped in) or you can set the air alarm to flood, cycle, draught, etc.

You could give the QM a console that lets them see the material levels of the various lathes and the ability to send a mule bot to remotely fill them. Makes the QM a bit more important, and allows for materials to potentially be stolen as they travel to a department. This would let antags and/or dis...

How do individual departments contribute to research? Do they get something like unique items/reports to give to the RD for research? Or is it just a passive thing that happens as people do research-esque stuff?

Let's just have 1 job with all access for everybody Lets have 9000 jobs with everyone having access to exactly one door. Stupid hyperbole's go both ways. The difference is that nobody is proposing we go in that direction. Just that we stay where we currently are. The matter is that we are currently...

Ragin mages always seemed to devolve into magic deathmatch. I guess it's alright if that's what you're going for but I personally never liked that kind of thing.

You get more usable materials and (I think) points for every ore you put into it.

should we rejig bomb code so that maxcapping requires these harder gases to get? I.e normal plasma bombs would receive a significant nerf. It should make bombing a more secret art Slightly (or greatly?) buffing the max bomb size but making it much more difficult to create would be interesting to tr...

You can't, that's a feature of Goon (I think). It's not in tg code

For real, was it the fast and noisy rainbow beard that was the problem? Can always have more subtle and slower effects.

It was because people were ahelping when their beard got shaved by random assistants, iirc.

I don't think this is a good idea. I like to be able to choose what role I'm signing up for. It's already annoying that if I feel like doing xenobio I have to just pick scientist then roll the dice and hope I spawn in the right area/someone else doesn't want to do it. If they're separate jobs you ca...

I love this game! The gameplay is solid, I thought it was challenging without being frustrating ( except in a single optional area). There aren't a ton of movement upgrades, but they all feel really nice to use. The game is super pretty. It's hand drawn and all the areas and characters felt unique, ...

If games are being added, Paranoia is pretty SS13ish.

They're still updating tf2, apparantly.

The Martian is an excellent movie. I haven't read the book. This short storys pretty good as well, not entirely space station but it can remind you of being frustrated with an AI. http://www.fullyramblomatic.com/features/hopeless.htm The book is also excellent!

Sunshine o shit, totally forgot about this one. No Star Trek? I'll admit, I'm not as familiar with Star Trek as I should be aside from the most recent movies :/ Hit me with some recommendations. You probably are more familiar than you think :P There are a ton of references to it in basically every ...

Also I wrote a program to check the rotation/flip thing. Unless I messed up (which is quite possible as I suck at this) then you have 184 unique solutions for the rotation thing, and 172 if you include a horizontal flip. Even with the flipped form's rotations? Yeah, I had it make a 3x3 matix, rotat...

I like the minigame idea instead of pure rng we have now. I'm a bit confused by the ideal state thing though. How do you discover what it is other than trial and error? There are 512 possible combinations per square so trial and error would really suck. Good point. This number could be greatly redu...

Basically pipes you don't need to connect directly.

Nothing too exciting, you get progress towards a badge for finding easter egg type systems the devs put in.

You also get an achievement if you blow up the earth with a planet destroying weapon.

It'b be pretty funny to have all the ghosts in the round trying to control one character.

you can read whole threads about this topic but in the end of the day its situational and you'll have to figure it out for yourself there is no clear cut answer for everything this whole fucking policy discussion shit is a joke why do we even have policy discussion? it's usually a guy getting banne...

When I play as a Head and my entire department is seemingly staffed by mimes as they refuse to talk even if I directly address them or ask them to do something.

Also when the people who don't turn on suit sensors complain that nobody ever checks suit sensors.

Plenty of people play the game with antags disabled.

Some ideas: 1. Incentivise joining roundstart somehow. Maybe a cosmetic bonus thing for playing enough rounds from start to finish? 2. Scale based off people in the lobby (could cause the opposite issue + observers would throw it off) 3. Wait to choose the gamemode until a few minutes into the round...
