/tg/Station 13

Yeah I should've clarified but from what I understand the DB is located at scaredy's house

The network delay is going to contribute to lag, so it's an easy win to move it to the server.

I would like admin responses on the following situations where I am the AI player on the Asimov lawset: - A human says "AI, Law 2, kill all lizards!" Rule 1 - Do not be a dick - A lizard roboticist wants access to R&D. Am I required to open it as I would with a human? (as there is no ...

So it has come to my attention that the database is hosted on a seperate server than the game.

They should really be hosted in either the same datacenter or ideally the same server.

You want to make a list of the banned people who connect?

It's not quite clear what you are asking for.

I'd love to play as a dwarf

why would you not

BlessedHeretic. They aren't very good in my case at handling the issue. Not that it wasn't appropriate or justified. It just seemed like their decision was based off of "well idc, this'll take too long and I'm busy, resolved kthxbai". I ahelped being killed by a Mime who played like a Clo...

Look lizard is really more of a test to ensure mutantrace datums work correctly than any actual feature filled gameplay mutant races lets us do cool stuff later down the track. In fact a lot of recent work in the codebase has been lag improvement and cleaning up a lot of code to make it simpler to a...

I believe they had night vision at first but it was removed for the time being

Could you please give us some time to get over the honeymoon period of lizards before we start playing around with racial bonuses?

Cheers thanks bye

Seems fine to me right now.

An active command team can easily grant access to security officers.

Is willing to engage over their bans and shows good conduct while discussing them.

Is also willing to admit when they are wrong, which is a huge ++

Don't listen to these scrubs

vim is the only editor you need

I don't think we can stretch quite this far

The way I usually handle this is to follow rule 1

I won't reveal who killed me because that pisses on their fun, but if they come after me a again I will do my best to kill them.

Then go play on a more RP-focused server. I do not see why the rules, which have worked just fine for us, need to be changed Because according to the OP scaredofshadows himself is frustrated with the current state of affairs. We don't get to direct the policy of these servers, that decisions rests ...

edit: Never mind it looks like it is already using one connection only, it's a shame it is so laggy then edit2:IT would be interesting to log the establish db connection proc to see if it's working correctly, the lag from the DB connections is pretty astounding to me. edit3: I would check also that ...

What if we base the number of rig and space suits on player numbers

We could call it the "costume tensioner"

If only there was some way to have antags introduced over time according to the rate of successful antags and the time on station.

Then we could make the shuttle refueling time much much longer and have more fun.

We could call it something like 'The tensioner'

Oh wait...

If you have multiple monitors, byond will only work correctly on the monitor that is set as primary, otherwise no popup windows (like the join game one) will appear.

Everyone should just get a free bundle and be forced to make do.

Tom is a reference to the byond developer as well. I remember some irc convo about that being the reason for the pet mouse.

looc was ported once and denied by the maintainers. I don't recall the reason though

Just a heads up

I don't think we should deny that maintainers personal opinions don't have an affect on what is accepted, because they do. The question is more of it that is a problem - and from what I can see so far, the answer is no. The current crop of maintainers have been pretty good at clarifying why a pull i...

The bomb code is semi legible and explains how the bomb force calculations work

Too many questions to be honest, who has time to fill it out

. in BYOND is a special var that will be returned automatically at the end of the proc if there is no return statement.

You can assign things to this i.e
. = list()

This guide worked pretty well

You can also avoid monsters if you just cut a path around through the rock and never enter the premade passages, it's almost as relaxed as old mining!

We should also limit the definition of pets to be ones that won't attack you out of hand

Having a spider as a *pet* and then validhunting people who kill it when it attacks them is pretty shit behaviour

This was not me murderbonering Ian for the lulz. This was a goddamn spider in my department which I shot because it was a GIANT FUCKING SPIDER. I didn't find out about it being a pet until after the fact. For my ignorance, I got put on the penal colony, a sentence that is supposed to be reserved fo...

There is no easy way to determine if it's true or not.

Forgive me if I am wrong here, but is it not standard practice to issue a permaban that indicates the user should come and appeal on the forum for egregious activity that needs to be hashed out in a form that is more suitable than admin pm's?

I rather imagine that the excessive population bursts that cause us to open up a second server every now and again are perhaps cyclic in nature.

What is the purpose of merging? Do you feel basil still steals players from artyom? Do you just want the basil name?

I'm a bit confused about the point. Basil probably just needs to be shutdown /turned into an ultra lowpop map.

If I recall correctly Scaredy never said the poll would decide the headmins, merely that he is running one.

Fuck you guys are bad at this game.

singulo.io

e: On a more serious note, there are some excellent open source irc meeting bots, that can greatly help manage a channel while running structured meetings.

Why isn't REV up there?

I like rev

stun talismans are the sleepypen of cult, they should be nerfed because they're a boring win button.

As an aside
do away with talismans forever and make it so cultist can store two runes with 3 shots in their arm, as a tattoo or something.
Does away with paper meta.

I just realised that the HoS can just borg one of his redshirts and get them to go secborg and he has an all access 420 stunscoping handcuffing door jacking antag killing machine.

This is the same reason we removed death squad, player competency.

If you pushed the button more often we'd have more chances to be good at it.

Just give them some C4, for when they really need to make an entrance.

Then they can tactically breach rooms.

The general consensus in coderbus is the ninjacode is fucked and it needs a rewrite or removal. So it's unlikely anyone will be willing to tweak it heavily.

Just a word of warning.

I will probably open a pull after the freeze ends to make the IED a fire explosion.

lumipharon, can you expand on what you mean with your comment? Are you saying there should be no explosive force, just the fireball?

Freeze ends on the 7th of June which is a mere 3-4 days away.
