About

MetaStation is a fully-functioning map available on the /tg/station codebase.

Key points to note are that:

  • It is geared towards higher populations than some other maps. However, there are no current minimum population requirement or maximum population requirements.
  • Key areas are more evenly spread to reduce local overcrowding.
  • It feels much more open, attacks in public are harder to get away with.
  • It has a large maintenance system covering most of the station, useful for stealthier tactics.
  • There are in-game maps and direction signposts on the walls of the station to help you find your way.
  • The escape shuttle has more seats, a large cargo bay, and larger medbay, brig, and bridge.

Further info regarding MetaStation is often posted in this thread on the /tg/ forums, with feedback also welcome there.

MetaStation is the default map and will always load whenever a map has not been pre-selected. This really only applies to custom servers.

History

MetaStation ran on Basil for a long time and has been tested extensively, being generally well received. It used to be largely maintained and updated by Metacide, though it uses the work of many others, and has been worked on by various other people who have updated and maintained the map over its history. MetaStation was added to the /tg/station codebase on Feb 4, 2015 after it's removal sometime prior. It has been maintained ever since. It was previously the default map on the /tg/ servers Badger and later Basil, and various edited versions have run on NoxStation, /vg/, and Paradise Station.
