/ss13g/ - Spessmans on a Spess Station

baby's day out mode when

>player controlled baby spawns at roundstart
>captain has to secure him
>anywhere from 2-5 undercover syndicate agents cooperate to capture him
>baby can resist out of people's grasp/containers and ventcrawl on cooldown timers
>babu gets randomized objectives as the round goes on (e.g. "go to the laundry room," "pet ian," "light somebody's cock on fire"), completing them enhances baby's abilities and strengthens its plot armor for further mischief
>baby must eat regularly or die (to prevent players from locking it in a room for extended periods)
>four minutes before the emergency shuttle docks all agents are notified via pda uplink that a syndicate shuttle will be arriving at one of several random locations at the same time as the emergency shuttle
>if the baby arrives at centcomm, the crew wins
>if the baby arrives aboard the syndie shuttle, the syndicate wins
>if the baby's left on the station or dies, everyone loses (round continues??)

This is just the Cult gamemode whenever there’s a HoP on the manifest

>Be Bill, assisstant
>doing assistant things like looting the mechanics office
>go chill in the bar and see the cargo tech has a PAI flashing
>he leaves it on the table so I download Potato Pi and lock him to me
>we patrol around for a bit until we come across a string of captain's spares in the hall
>using the ID I go to cargo and put the PAI in the mule, apply all the hacks and super cell
>we ride around until we see a shit ton of spiders in the fitness room
>it is time to promote myself to fight the monster menace
>become HoS and promote some trader bird to HoP who was recently deceased
>arm up properly and give some weapons to an original sec officer to fight monsters
>by now comms are out and monsters are gone so I ride the mule to egineering to fix comms
>we spy a chemist in engineering next to a rune
>he syringe guns me and misses, unleashing the mulePAI's fury, becomes roadkill
>search him and find a cult book
>we ride to the bridge to up to code blue/shuttle call, im going to be the sec the station needs
>some miner with a spur is there to stop us
>after the fire fight the mule is killed but the miner is dead, he has a paper and book on him
>I find a new PAI and we become mule patrol 2.0, hypercell edition
>head to the brig to get loyalty implants and implant a passing doctor
>we talk about code red in the HoP office
>implant a passing Plasmaman cargotech
>see a trader bird who cult teleports away
>it was only a minute, but the doctor fucking vanishes
>ride around some more and capture a bird trader
>implant him after he is run over a few times
>we both ride the mule to drop him at medbay, plan to group at cargo
>I order more guns, mules, and loyalty when the shuttle is called
>stop by the bridge to see the implanted bird dead next to the console
>walk in and get memed on by an invisible doctor
>mulePAI trys to save me but cant leave the bridge
>we explode in a blaze of glory
>doctor thought the bird and I were cult becuase he kept his culty stuff
HONK

Was he the guy who played Bob the Pyromancer?

Is there any way I can play on what amounts to an empty station with full access? I'm trying to practice doing things and understanding mechanics but shit keeps getting in the wayy.

Thanks user.

Fluked it and got to see the spawn animation live for once. I'll miss Cult 2

>outing would be metagaming
>it's """"metagaming"""" to know what a rune is

This is what Bay actually believes

Not seeing the rune, but seeing it through a wall because the darkness overlay disappears faster than the camera changing.

>BYOND
And yet, remake probably never

What are fun things I can do with improvised explosives?

setting off a chain event of welding fuel tanks around command

I'm sure someone would realize I was dragging them all over though. Isn't there anything sneakier?

Rig fuel tanks to yell BOOM along actual exploding ones.

Blow up crates and closets to collect goodies

They also have like a 50% chance to destroy an APC which is a huge fucking massive headache to fix and in the 4 seconds it takes to blow you can be all the way across the station.

So is there literally any reason to play on this shit server over Veeky Forums?

At least on Veeky Forums you won't get banned for taking hyperzine.

Here on Veeky Forums we don’t ban for mild usage of stronk items ranging to moderate powergaming we just argue over whether said items should get removed in the githhub

Here on Veeky Forums you can call the admins trannies and can weigh in on the code matters. And there's minimal to none goofball interaction.

>>you are now a cultist, find the dead HoP
>>search to no avail
Astral Journey lets you ghost for a bit and haunt the sac target to find them.

who has been banned for powergaming chems here?

none at all, stay on TG

Other than a syringe gun how do I get chems in people? Preferably without them knowing

>TG
>having hyperzine at all

Injectors give the "you feel a tiny prick".
Spraying is shit and inefficient.
They only won't notice if they are asleep or in a sleeper

...

Put it in their food, add it to pills or give them a syringe when they need medicine in medbay

Dip a cigar in it and get them to smoke it

>when you make the perfect outfit
Good feeling

>no chappie null mjolnir
>no chappie thor armor

You c*ders disappoint me so.

>haven't ss13 in about 4 years
>hop into borer
>have a solid time
that's a good system right there

>people still don't know implanting doesn't deconvert from cult

null rod creep is the scourge of this server

>what was cult 1.0 like
* Manifested Ghosts could be turned into monkeys then back into humans to turn ghosts into players for cheap
* Nar-Sie was summon-able from roundstart, so the rounds could end in 5 minutes after a few conversions.
* Nar-Sie was just a giant singularity basically, he already had a tendency to move toward survivors, but that's it.
* Objectives were crap and never followed. You had either "summon NarSie", "have 5 cultists escape on the shuttle" or "custom objective"
Of course "custom objective" meant that cultist either just murderboned, did nothing, or summoned NarSie. And have 5 cultists escape means that the game just became extended after the first conversion.

Basically every point in pic-related was added in cult 1.5

>2525
>cultists go loud, everyone is dying
>walk into the bar
>see a desert eagle on the ground
>try to shoot a juggernaught with it
>it’s a null rod

Remember that gray you sprayed water on? This is him now.

Remember that guy who tried to get you banned on the fourms?

This is him now

Remember that guy who never finished snowmap?

This is him now

Just imagine cult 2.0 but without the big narnar event at the end and worse sprites on stuff

You can also simply roll back git to pre-deity cult

Yeh, need an exponential amount of people for it the bigger it is or it's never done

Primary reason is most people are trash. They're either going to die and get looted alone and retarded or they're going to go back to cult central, get papered and reconverted because the cult isn't retarded for once.

If they don't take the initiative to join the jihad, the best thing to do is just be read to shoot them again when they come for you and start killing and destroying their ghost not deconverting to feed the ecosystem

Heads up, implants only prevent cult conversion. You need to feed them holy water or have the chaplain bible the shit out of their unprotected head then give them alkysine to be sure they're not a cultist.

anyone got the "spess ain't free" image

Thats always how he looked

Why does teegee never use passive cooling for their SME?

their SME sucks and they don't have layer autism like us.

because TG's playerbase is stupid, enginners just take the role for the suit and to validhunt once the valids are secured the shuttle is called, the SME is literally pre-built, why would someone put any effort into it?

IT BEGINS

(Keep in mind lads that this is more or less a “bandaid” PR: it doesn’t mean we’re overhauling our movement system or anything to make it not a meme.)

Yeah but only server side. Pomf has to specifically look at them and I only check them when I think there's monkey business going on.

Soon there will be no more chemistry

All voting is logged.

What a terrible pr. We need more reagents, not less.

Thank you for the threadly reminder.

I think you got the wrong timeline bub, the leatherclub’s two blocks down

Come code some reagents then. We just got butter and saltwater.

Before I do, I'd need to sort out the underlying structure of the reagents module. Doesn't feel right to throw another tire onto an already smokey and hellish pile.

The coding channels right here whenever you want to start learning and need help. discord.gg/GgAe6Cd

longterm sissification

Same

Cult 3.0 is coming along nicely
Can't wait for it to be done

Oddly enough ordering guns was totally unrelated to the cult, I just wanted a gun to explore space with. Also your clownfish were fun

hrt chems and sissy sec when

I miss waifu sec

you mean Rin ?

We used to have rounds where all the sec players were girls(), consistently, for months

lewd

Packed kitchen deal people wanted is up for review.

github.com/vgstation-coders/vgstation13/pull/17730

Nice

welcome to the derelict, please enjoy your stay

ooga booga time for another bagel extended round

Jane was original sec waifu complete with ERP

Kitchen has no tables, that's the problem with the kitchen. Move the maint door one up and the fridge to the fridge room and you have two more spaces to juggle machinery.

good round

Why does the kitchen have the shotgun?
I spy with my little eye something tubular under a wall
Also sucks for the MoMMIs I guess

Use F2 to take screenshots you orthodox caveman

I'm moving botany down one instead of kitchen up one but kitchen will receive tables.
Bar had half as much space so the bartenders cabinet was in the kitchen. I didn't look at the stuff IN the rooms I just gave them more space. I'll add the cabinet to the bartenders side.

How is Veeky Forums in 2018?
The last time i played powergaming was rampant and you could get away with anything as long as you were in bed with the admins.

still the same

Veeky Forums doesn't exist

How do you guys feel about giving people that start in X department certain small buffs, which can also be bestowed by reading special books which take Y time to read?

Stuff like giving medical doctors a slightly increased chance to successful perform surgery on improvised platforms like tables/roller beds, slightly decreasing construction times for engineers, increasing yield on chemistry reactions by Z% (somewhere in the 3 to 5 range is my initial thought, and it might not apply for certain reactions depending on how rare/strong the reagent is). Books for these "skills" would spawn in the same place that the guides for the department does, and can be printed from the library. Ideally these skills would also be able to be toggled on/off by the player.

I feel that this would increase the mechanical utility of Librarian, and slightly increase the efficiency of people who spawn and work in the same department. This addition ideally wouldn't nerf anything that already exists, nor would it give outrageous buffs that break the game.

you'd need to give them some kind of real cost so people can't just print one of each and hand them out to everyone for sick skill ups

Sounds ok in theory but in game I don't know how it would do.

The cost would be the time it takes to read the book, and the buffs should be small enough that it wouldn't really matter if you did read them all, should you choose to spend the time doing so.

The theory being sound is all I'm really trying to probe out by posting ITT.

I guess you could also require nanopaper to print them, or some other material component requirement. They could also take a while to print.

The thing is there are upgraded versions of tools so stuff like surgery is all ready stupid fast once you get the laser scalpel, incision manager and the like.
The only one that could kinda work is engineers being able to build things a bit faster then others.

Just some example thoughts. Precise buffs would be determined on a case-by-case basis, again, with the strict requirement of not being game breaking. If something already has a the ability to be increased, like surgery speed via tools, there wouldn't be a skill for it.
