/tg/Station 13

Helios

What is your favourite memory of playing Space Station 13 around the holidays?

Helios

If we set the codebase back to a set point in the past then re-evaluate every change made since and only merge what we think are the good ideas we'll end up with pretty much exactly the same code we have right now

There could be a similar comparison between that line of thinking, and Jagex when ...

What is the current state of TGMC? How are the player counts?

It always seemed to me like there was a lot of potential in changing the premises behind the station, and having gameplay consequences from it.
Post Revolution Station: Revolutions can be resolved without a shuttle call, and presumably life could continue on a station after a succesful revolution ...

Helios

I read Anonymous;Code recently. It's not on the level of Steins;Gate but deserves to be a part of the science adventure series.
Life simulation could be interesting. Instead of an Earth simulator that simulates what will happen tomorrow or next week on Earth it would be a Space Station Simulator ...

Discuss what some people consider to be indie game of the year, and if you have any bright ideas of features that should be borrowed from it let us know.

Helios

This is a good idea, but I would tweak it slightly. Firstly, balance the monkeys at the levels you would Cult Constructs, with Artificers being equal in power level to Engineer monkeys, Infiltrators the same power level as Wraith, and Gorilla Cyborgs as Juggernauts.
Engineer Monkeys can convert ...

We don't want to see players faking revs.

It doesn't need to be more explicit than that because it's not a set of actions that are banned, it's an intent to fake revs that is banned regardless of what their actions are.

Such a vague ruling can better withstand the test of time without needing to ...

Scrolling through the archives, there has been feedback to specific elements of Ice Box, but not Icebox itself.
What do people like and dislike about this Variant of Box Station?

Helios

Imagine SS13 is a retail game, and instead of a sequel a 1.5 Edition expansion pack was released.
What would be in your dream Space Station 13 expansion pack? What would it add and change?

Helios

On further reflection, this would probably be a better fit for the abandoned Hand of God game mode. 2 Gods, 2 teams, and a bunch of neutral players. This version of praying would be for a heal, for arms and armor, and for "guidance" (1 on 1 communication, asking God what you should do). The gods ...

Helios

make it just do a fuckload of stamina damage, so you can just discipline your subjects, instead of killing them

I would think Chains bind people more than anything, so Chain of Commands being super handcuffs that bind the hands of those below you could be interesting.
I know this would be a ...

Helios

Derelict station being used by a base by some antagonist harassing the station so the station has to blow it up or at least put down the threat would be a better use of existing resources.
A few low hanging fruit would be using it as another form of AI Sattelite. If the malf timer is over halfway ...

Where should Woody's Got Wood go, if not the adult section of the library?

Helios

The other thing is, Revolutions never seem to feel like anything has been accomplished.
If Post-Rev is going to be a thing, we can change how the game fundamentally works, in a way we would not want the base game to work.
1. Instead of being denominated in Credits, all purchases on the station are ...

Anyone else getting some serious performance issues?

/tg/station City Map designed for 100 players, kept in reserve for the next wave or peak hours, would be nice.

I know there are many secret uniforms and items the players can collect behind iron walls and in secret caverns across various stations. What are your personal favorites?

Isn't this problem just solved by combining orange shoes with cuffs, and shoecuffing the armless people after you knock them down?

I think the hidden design space of Paradox clones is super quirks/traits.
They come from a world where the rules are different, and they can roll all kinds of affinities. Alcohol leading to them breathing fire, coffee acting as a stimulant on the level of crystal meth, Engineers who are half ...

I was talking about a Sindrian Fuel Company Escape shuttle which strands people at a gas station for 5 minutes before they can go home, and it seems like RedBaronFlyer was talking more about replacing the entire cargo department with a Sindrian Fuel company quartermaster and cargo system. That would ...

Helios

This is an open invitation for RedBaronFlyer to come in and complete the details, but the basic gimmick of this is that the Sindrian Diktat ship can fly the crew back to Centcomm in half the time. The thing is that trip is broken down by 2.5 minutes to the Gas Station, 5 minutes of refueling while ...

Helios

Do you have any ideas for something interested to do with the egg

Yeah. Combine them with Exosuits for Frank Horrigan level monstrosities aligned with the station.
Sounds like a joke, but human pilots, posibrains and intellicarded AIs control Exos differently, giving exos a custom xeno hybrid ...

Helios

ok but I disagree with you on that point, which is why i changed it.

And what about the fact your decisions bleed onto other servers?
When /tg/station stopped having cloning, so did the rest of the servers using the codebase.
Do you ever think about the state of the game beyond this server when ...

Helios

There was nothing wrong with the old access system.
Getting AA because of war ops was fine.

Uranium and Radium pools can (VERY) slowly irradiate surrounding things.

Ripleys and Odysseus leaving oil when hit, while more advanced exosuits leave pools of liquid uranium and other dangerous compounds would be a good addition. Higher tech industry leaving by-products that lead to high tech ...

Back in the very old days, when Malf AIs were on AI satellites, there was another way for bombing scientists to be heroes

What is the state of Bees in 2023?

Sounds interesting, the only eh part is ID destruction. Even on a good day getting a new ID can take 15+ minutes if the HOP is a lazy bastard.

That's the point. A new ID being a pain in the ass to get is what makes it a real sacrifice

this feels quite video gamey

praying in my experience has ...

Helios

A lot of admins don't seem to like prayer as it currently exists. One way to resolve this would be be sacrifice. Gods can react to prayer either by demanding the sacrifice of an object on their person, like their ID or traitor PDA. Others can be special objects which are an unreasonable demand for ...

How could we escalate the tension with Revolution rounds like they are escalated by Syndicate Operatives declaring war on the station?
I would think turning the Heads of Staff into Heroes, and the Head Revs into villains. These players would have icons above their heads visible to all, and would ...

Helios

I would also agree with 30-60 seconds more.

Helios

I think this is a good idea. Turns out people have been thinking of Syndicate station for many years.

Helios

I have an idea for a month long event. Every Friday/Saturday night (or whatever timeframe has peak playerbase) the station would be put on Build a shuttle mode. The Build Your Own Shuttle would be automatically docked at the start of the round, shuttle calling/docking would work as normal, but after ...

Is there more or less furries since SoS left?

Helios

There's a lot of ways we could add more depth to antagonists, by taking them seriously. Understanding who they are, how they operate, and how with internal consistency we can change that around.
So as an example, instead of random jobs being changelings, changelings try to infiltrate a specific ...

Helios

There can also be a strategic element. If you got war ops and you know they want that fuckin disk, you might as well shuttle call when you can, instead of waiting until war ops kill half the crew before you can finally start retreating.
