SS13: A Pint to All Spaceman Gone!

Welcome to the thread for d20 station, a rules light, medium RP Space Station 13 server.

>What is Space Station 13?
It's a 2D top down atmospherics simulator with who dun it gameplay layered on top. Each crew member aboard the station has a specific job to perform, while a select few are selected to be traitors (assassin/spy/thief).

>Why is this on muh Veeky Forums?
d20 is a server made for fa/tg/uys by fa/tg/uys

>How do I play?
You'll need to download the BYOND client.

A BYOND account is HIGHLY recommended

>I'm new, and I don't know what the fuck to do. How do I swap hands?
Use OOC (backspace say" in the bottom, type OOC and hit enter, or: i.imgur.com/RodAGGZ.png), which means Out Of Character chat, and ask someone for help on how to play. People will almost always help you get a grip of the game if you're polite about it, just don't reveal too much in-round information in OOC.
There's also wikis dedicated to documenting the spaceman way of life, but they vary widely from server to server.

>What are the rules?
The rules are very relaxed and admins try to take a hands-off approach to administrating. Admins will generally only intervene if someone is explicitly playing to ruin the game. Reminder to read the rules in-game.

>What map/code do you run?
We run a heavily modified Ministation map with mostly custom code. Most jobs on Ministation are merged with similar counterparts and head roles have been re-enabled.

>When does everyone play?
The server is mostly populated with Americlaps, so peak times are usually between 7pm-3am EST

>Who are these tripfags?
Usually admins/coders for the server.

I started playing this game a couple months ago in Veeky Forums station, left due to mods there having a massive stick up their ass.

What are the differences between this server and Veeky Forums server? Would like to know before I start playing here.

I don't think I missed anything, right?

Also we're on a modified ministation. And player highpoint is around 7 pm est.

>no retarded ZAS atmos
We use LINDA configured to overdrive.

Sounds good, admins here dont adminbus to end rounds just because antags are being skillfull and the round is taking too long to end as a result, right?

Surgical kit needs its max slots upped so you can put the new surgery devices back. Also needs new devices added to allowed list.

Box of counters needs max slots bumped, but only allow counters.

Surgery can bug out on failures (cavity implant specifically stops being progressable after a chain-failure).

Oh yeah, rounds last anywhere from 30 minutes to 5 hours. Since it's not really about being an antag, people don't try to end the round so they can be an antag. A bit of autism is needed on d20.

Also adminbus a good, pic related.

You missed a lot.
Go read the changelogs from our server and theirs and you'll have a complete answer.
