/tg/Station 13

It'd probably be ok if you could access station map from some OOC tab. It doesn't have to be a thorough map with all the objects, maybe just a link to a mspaint map that shows where all departments are or somesuch.

Learning where stuff is is kinda the charm of new maps/being new to the game.

For you and for me. But maybe not for everybody.

if you can't bother to learn the map yourself, this isn't your game anyways

It'd be kinda funny if every job had their own shitty hand drawn map that suits them, cap has a nice proper map, clown has an inaccurate map of best places to honk people, greytide has a map covered in Xs and a legend where X = Stuff to take, security has a map with the brig and then a huge area labeled CRIMINALS on the rest of the station

That would've been nice

Definitely not for everyone. I could literally play box every round for the rest of my life and I'd never get tired of it. I'm not a fan of constantly having to re-learn where everything is, regardless of how well-crafted the maps are. Especially considering that most of them are re-hashes of the same thing and not particularly unique in any way aside from having everything shuffled around.

That being said, it's not hard to find maps of the stations online with a very minimal amount of effort. It takes all of 30 seconds to pull up the /tg/ wiki and see a map for every station in rotation, with the exception of Delta Station. As long as mappers are making sure that the wiki is up-to-date with the newest iterations of their maps, I don't really think having an in-game map via OOC is necessary.

Learning is fun. A map helps people learn the layout. Thus OP's idea enables fun.

Say, completely unrelated, but what the fuck is that dog wearing, Mr P?
