Spessmen on a Space Station - SS13 - /ss13g/

When has an antagonist ever sabotaged an engine with the intent of knocking out power? Either they singuloose or give no fucks about engineering. New engines can be ordered by cargo in a few minutes anyway.

I remember three people in my entire experience that sabotaged engineering with the objective of power loss.

Christopher Dorner.
Werner Heisenberg in his horrorform 3 hour palooza.
Some vampire that constantly shapeshifted and got into our group of progressivelly less survivors.

I liked the idea to remove skeleton from the last thread, so I'll expand on it
>skeletons now are as fast as humans
>skeletons are no longer a station race
>retcon skeletons being station dwellers that got fucked by wizard magic
>skeletons are now servants originally summoned by the wizard federation, but are harmless without the presence of a wizard
>skeletons now spawn on a wizard federation grand archive, which is basically a huge library with fun wizard stuff (no spacesuits or pods)
>skeletons can do mundane stuff like play cards or write books to upload to the library system
>maybe even have a holodeck-like thing that lets them take wizard gear and duke it out on the deck for fun
>only way to get there and exchange players is the salvage shuttle
It'd be a good way to get rid of lmaowacky skeletons without any place on the station without getting the players too mad, add some fun fluff for the wizard federation, and also to have some neat features.

Just make the salvage shuttle a 5-skelly department that flies around and gets up to mischief

Best gamemode is autotator.
I cannot be proven wrong.

where do I go to learn how to code for this game?

>didn't even get the link right

One user today said that the best gamemode is autotator and has yet to be proven wrong. This story is ongoing and will be reported on as events develop, s t a y t u n e d.

FUND IT

you open dream maker and look at something similar to what you want and then copy/paste what you need and make it work :^)

Yes, but when is Probe finishing his meme Lamprey Station vault?

Add a REALLY fancy cursive font too.

Security wanted to reset just cause but they were helpless retarded. Use your battering ram if yo udon't know how to thermite or lift unpowered bolts.

instead, they tried to tell the borgs to do it, and attacked us when we refused.

Meanwhile, I saved the HoS for shits and giggles by locking the guy killing him in a maintenance hall that he couldn't escape.

Not only did the botanist have an emag, they BOTH had an emag.

BORGS REEE

Great metagaming champ.

sounds like a typical service department

If it makes you feel better, I wanted to do that for 3 years

it got me good, and from what I could see everyone else ignored the bodies and walked in to die deeper inside

weird round!

So last round is what hippie feels like regularly?

still got greentext, mission accomplished

get wood, make a bowl, add metal, grind metal, sip

So many good times

Mortar metal sheets and drink or inject. You can supplement it with the vendor donuts. There's like 6 boxes of 12 if you hack them too.

I ordered a medical crate, surgery crate and blood packs for the brig early in the shift to set up brigbay, they never arrived

t. One of your officers

ahh. proves how much i know!

Missed this so fucking much.

after you shot my chest to hell with that lazer gun I grabbed all of the armory and came after you. A shame about the shard and walls, it would have been a great showdown

t. warden

i shat my pants when you didnt fall or slow down after like 5 cap laser shots

Borer from the captain you murdered was inside of me. Kinda poetic if you think about it

Just wasted time coming up with shit for it that'll literally never be made because I don't know shit about coding/mapping and I doubt exiling skeletons received well.

Needs a kitchen. Maybe put one in between dorms/botany and the bar?

Also, the bar should have a back room with building supplies, and only serve milk. Make sure there's lots of syringes and forks.

Add a 1-use item in the wizard's den that summons random a skeleton to the wiz den, makes it an antag with the orders to assist the wizard, and give it a random spellbook and single-use teleport scroll. Shit would be fun as fuck.

Also don't make it only accessible with the salvage shuttle, it'd be an OP as fuck cultist base.

Which job has gotten the most powercreep in the last year or so?

trader hands down, but i'm not sure it counts because it's still new

I'm just hoping the net result is more trading and less birdtiding.

traders are on the tightest leash this game has, tighter than the fucking punishment roles, only maybe beat by head roles
i'm not concerned

Tase and shotgun every time there's not glass in the way man. Lasers are for baddies.

Because the bird tide was insufferable.

>IT'S [GAMEMODE]

More ideas for the holodeck:
Shootout:
>one team gets grey jumpsuits, gasmasks, insulated gloves, and black shoes
>other team gets sec gear
>both teams get a laser or a shotgun for each person

Lasertag:
>Lasertag.

It's what happens when you have two purges with ample announcement ahead of time.

>[00:40:51]SAY: Zachary Hensha/Carshalash (@12,244,2) : OH SHIT OHDJHNSFNF
>[00:40:56]SAY: Zachary Hensha/Carshalash (@12,245,2) : ITS AUTOTRAITOR

Admins confirmed, next purge is on the twentieth
tell your friends, Veeky Forumsstation is rules free on 1/20/17

Sounds like the epitome of comfy. Code it, Probe.

security. SPS's were fixed, and Lol roundstart pocket lethals that stun, can't be emped, and can be reloaded with the press of a button rather than having to retreat and charge. I don't get how anyone can even have fun with sec, it's all so brain numbingly easy and I'm forced to let known traitors go just so something can keep the round interesting. Even rampant greytiding is super easy to stomp out these days.

I would believe you if security actually worked.
KEEP BUFFING THEM UNTIL THEY WORK

Needs some kind of autism project place so people don't get bored of playing it so many rounds in a row.

tfw no telescience waifu

>tfw I helped the chef most the shift protectin his ass.

It's kinda depressing to see how much the powercreep has gone out of hand on the server.
Probably no way to get shit nerfed back down, since everyone hates having their favourite thing nerfed, and we're voting on things democratically.

>was a quartermaster
>hunting a wiz
>wiz used mindswap on me
>died by Security

you were an awesome help man
good fuckin round all things considered.

Make the main hallway longer and add a big atmos room with RPDs and lots of metal and glass sheets. Across from it could be a room with clothing vending machines, an autodrobe, wizard vend, washing machines, and various random articles of clothing that don't come from any of those machines.

Also fuck the salvage shuttle can get to it idea, it should be inaccessible. Too much shit that could be niggered.

If everybody is dead nobody can be the wizard

There's like 2, 3 people with mindswapped, and i saw one of the wiz on my headquarters.

You were running around with your egun turned to lethals, in your hand, ready to be disarmed. Don't do that anymore it's a workplace hazard

>eating dinner while having space open in the background, ghosting the round
>get drafted as a wizard
>have never played wizard before and have no idea what anything does
>feel the pressure of all the ghosts observing me waiting to see me do something stupid
>everything I do is stupid and three minutes later I've died to an electrocuted door

Were you my apprentice?

just do scrying + gemsuit + firebird + fireball + horseman curse
it's the single most braindead faggotiest wiz build possible that everyone has to try once

You weren't the only bad wizard. I was given a sympathy retry, did okay staff of changing and jaunting around like a cock the second time, but got robusted.

As long as the round is fun, all that counts.

better than the wizard that got merced in the fucking bar

I like firebird/SoC/fireball/whatever I'm feeling like
It's a fun time.

The Tazer needs to be nerfed.

Ranged stun combat is pretty gay. Its not really even any fun, and its not like you really even have to worry about missing shots, especially as sec, because its not hard to get ahold of 4 of them round start.

Even the Stunbaton is a bit much.

Would be better if melee stuns were probability based instead of guranteed.

What happened to security shoving guys over and wrestling cuffs onto them? Now its just spray the fucking hall with "I win yellow sprites"

>What happened to security shoving
it was never a thing

If your apprentice was the one that got summoned five minutes before roundend, yeah. I have Wizard set to "never" on the special roles so I dunno why it picked me

I picked up your spellbook instead of one I could actually use, didn't know Knock opened doors so I disposal'd myself to get out of science, finally figured out knock so I went to Atmos to get a hardsuit in attempt to trick people, got doorcrushed by the AI

>try to change the vox I mistakenly chickened back into a vox again
>the geneticist has the dna scanner is set to duration 10 at maximum intensity
>nearly fucking broil the chicken

What did he mean by this?

>What happened to security shoving guys over and wrestling cuffs onto them? Now its just spray the fucking hall with "I win yellow sprites"
You played on another server then came here and complained.

>probability based
they already kinda are, user. pure-blooded RNG is a touchy subject that usually leads to more frustration than not. I don't disagree with the idea of nerfing them, the only problem is the entire game revolves around stuns. you have to think about the implications when you make a change. I was actually thinking to nerf cuffs and allow for biting and kicking, and other simple and basic tasks, maybe even reduce the uncuffing time or not have it reset while running.

Git gud

Instead of cuffs resetting when you move, it should just do half progress for that second, so that if you run for the entire length of your uncuffing it takes twice as long, with the possibility of finding a quiet spot occasionally to stand still.

>allow for biting and kicking
There's a good reason why those are disabled
>cuff greyshit/antag
>they autistically nontop try to bite you all the way to brig
>you have to stunlock them all the way there or fucking harmbaton their skull in
>if you don't have enough stuns you just HAVE to harmbaton their skull in
No officer should have to deal with that shit.

I could see it being re-added if it had like a 30% chance to hit.

You have to remember that 90% of officer are valid hunting shitters who kept getting robusted as assistants.

Nah, fuck off with that retarded shit.

Can Mommis build turrets?

They're capable of doing so but it's technically a law violation.

it's a contentious issue.
Last I checked it was allowed, but varied by mod.

>You may not involve yourself in the matters of another being,

A turret in it of itself is not involvement. Especially if you have it turned off at the start.

>you may not harm any being, regardless of intent or circumstance.

Every one knows Tazing is not harming. As long as you don't set them to lethal. No harm is done.

>You must maintain, repair, improve, and power the station to the best of your abilities.

Turrets are an improvement.

It's one of those things where it depends on what exactly you're doing.

Building a turret itself isn't involving yourself with another being.
Building a turret in the hall and turning it on is.

You'll get 5 different answers from 5 different admins because the context will be different every time.
