Variety

Seems like you guys might benefit from a more granular weighting system for antag priority.
Banning is binary: either the player has a zero (0%wt) or non-zero (100%wt) probability.
Might want to implement another 2 states, for example: 50%wt (reduced) and 150%wt (increased).

These could be used to ...

[...]give out insane levels of power (From 5 to 8 million).
Yes, you'll have to balance it. We're currently in the (very slow) process of aligning the engines and unifying their output/risk-reward/etc.
Also good to see another mapper who cares about elegance in atmos/engie. Our designs on /vg/ are ...

Excellent work. A big step up from Nano.
Is the code up somewhere (github repo)?

This might not be the most exhilarating part of art, but I'd like to point out that when you guys publish sprites/maps/etc here, it'd be nice to publish them with a license.
This can be as simple as including a textfile as an attachment to your post, or just copy-pasting the license text, or even ...

Though it remains to be seen whether this will actually do anything at all
I'd suggest going and taking a look at /vg/'s version of baymed (since afaik that's what you're aiming for).
Long story short, it's a classic SS13 goon-style system. Quite fun in-game, but quite hellish in code.
Unless you ...

An old version of Box. Has the prison station and all.

So I realized I have a folder of map pics worth sharing, and i'm probably not the only one.
Let's post some maps.

Nexis wrote a python script that will generate a map render given a repo and map file.
Makes some pretty nice renders, and saves an hour of ghosting + stitching.
Find it here: https ...

[...] one-man written clusterfuck where the original guy that coded it left the company with undocumented code.
On the other hand that kind of sums up most features of SS13.
Yeah that's pretty much our standard dev plan

600% boost in object allocation speed is good.
Especially like he said with strings and lists. Good news.

Also:

Interestingly strings were part of your stress test's running time because of the \ref macro you used.

Our (/vg/) version works decently well, and we're not exactly enforced-RP central.
But a trip to Medbay does become... a little more interesting.

Screw this. It's annoying and pointless for ...

Dammit, laptop died (BSOD) and lost a gigantic detailed post i was going to make.
Might as well summarize it.

Aseprite is an old-school tool.
It gives you the right atmosphere, but it's a pain in the ass.
If you're going to use an ancient relic, use this one.

MSPaint is crap.
There's basically ...

An in-game solution would be good. The less effort it takes, the more reports you get.

Bugreporting from in-game was veto'd for years because it would result in really low-quality bug reports. And multiple tickets per bug.

You could solve that by designating someone to sift through them and make ...
