download tgstation master from github, there's a folder named Tools, midi-to-piano should be there. But it doesn't work really well

The first time I did it, I set up one in maintenance and they could see through that, but not the ones I'd set up in the abandoned bar. Does it have something to do with how it's set up on the station blueprints? Do I need the CE to march down and add the abandoned surgery/bar/whatever to something, or am I just stupid? (a very real possibility!)

I always set the network to "Security", and it takes roughly a minute for the camera to work for the AI. If that didn't work, then somebody broke camera code.

subvert the AI solo, get the borgs to ambush the captain when he is alone.

get disk, move to solar, nuke.

to a limited extent AI is all-seeing-all-knowing; the captain is easy to find and a single borg should be able to ambush him.

normally there is a problem; that problem being that as soon as anybody notices the AI doing suspicious things the AI dies, but since you couldn't care less about it's survival (and borgs) it's not a big deal.

any mediocre+ borg or AI can easily do it. subverting the AI is semi-trivial as a nukeop

the other thing is, you can just shoot your way through the place as long as you stack your advantages

nukeop has following advantages
>can disengage into space (or disengage generally if gravity is out / singlo is lose whatever)
>rapid fire, powerful weapons
>all access that AI can't really revoke (emag)
>subverting sillicons is easy

use your advantages:
>disable gravity, turn the station into a gravity-less oxygenless environment where your jetpack works and many will die due to the environment.
>never get into a lengthy engagement; use your superior intelligence (AI, thermals, NV) to pick your engagements, attack swiftly and without mercy, and disengage before reinforcements arrive
>emag everything; this alone can cause chaos, and it prevents you from being trapped.
>use your ability to subvert sillicons to your advantage. EMP to disable them is dirt cheap, extremely effective, stealthy, full-screen+ omnidirectional and 2 tc. no joke. use it. emag the sillicons and use them against the crew.
>use your captive sillicons to free singularities, track people, start fires, deceive the crew as to what they are under attack by; shock doors, disable medbay, cloning, telecomms, gravgen, the bridge. anything to confuse and disorient your enemy. communication (radio) and regeneration (cloning) are your enemy's most potent weapons; they allow them to continually reinforce. disabling them as early as possible (ideally before you are outed) is CRITICAL.

Ahelp the AFK operative, wait for either the admin themself to takeover or for nobody to takeover because deadchat has been spamming "FLUKES." Flamethrower, elite hardsuit, tons of stetch ammo, desword. Find the detective. Kill him. Take his gun. Find the Captain. Use the discount e-bo- I mean .38, git that fukken disk, grab the nook, mail fission, get to ship, fission mailed. Flamethrower is for crowd control and the desword is for finishing off the people you shot down.

I should know this works, because it worked for me as a solo op.

Surround their workplace entrances with tables, reinforced if you can, and put gaps between the tables so they have to climb up and down the tables constantly.

It removes access restrictions for the vendor, so for example you can use it on a medbay vendor to make it not require medbay access

Post by **Armhulen** » Mon Dec 26, 2016 11:48 pm #238781

Emagging a vendor should totally have it eat the hand of the next person who tries to dispense it

CosmicScientist wrote:What are tablet computers for? I never understood before and I still don't understand now.

You can download certain programs depending on your job and access that are essentially portable computers, such as atmospheric technicians being able to download a station air alarm program, or the HoP being able to download a portable ID changer program (which often gets stolen)

Aside from those, you can also download an ingame IRC client on any tablet for organizing book club meetings!

Anonmare · Post by **Anonmare** » Tue Dec 27, 2016 3:28 am #238812

I'd like tablets to have more functionality, such as being able to remotely interface with station systems, but I imagine it's a lot of work to make that happen.

how tf did sybil become the low pop server

onleavedontatme · Tue Dec 27, 2016 9:02 pm

It kept crashing for weeks on end at the same time basil was ascendant.

Basil was on the hub, so it became high pop enough to attract people to migrate from Sybil while Sybil was already losing players (natural attrition, lots of regulars getting permad, people driven away by admin events, people driven away by constant silent murder sprees are my personal theories on that)

assuming you mean c4, but im not sure if signallers work with it. did you try just exposing the signaller and attaching it? also friendly reminder that you can put them on mouse traps for an impromptu landmine/booby trap when sec tries to go through your bag

Grazyn · Post by **Grazyn** » Fri Jan 13, 2017 2:57 pm #243572

C4 now work the same as grenades, so make the signaller assembly you want then attach it

Whoisthere · Post by **Whoisthere** » Fri Jan 13, 2017 3:04 pm #243578

Nono, I'm talking about x4. It comes in dufflebags of 3, it's like c4 that blows the wall and damages several tiles behind it.

By signaller assembly you mean igniter+signaller? I just want to be able to blow it remotely via radio. Put it on a wall in maint, walk into department, get my target to line up to that wall, blow x4 charge so it hits the target. I did it successfully with thermals and timed x4 from maint, and now want to get rid of thermals.

Grazyn · Post by **Grazyn** » Fri Jan 13, 2017 4:11 pm #243595

I can't test it now but by assembly I mean any assembly, igniter+signaller should work. For c4 at least but I don't know if it works for x4 as well

Why is it that alot of the time (especially around ''european'' hours) zero admins are on for hours? This was a problem way back in the past and still is, how has the administrationteam not fixed that. The pop during these hours is lower than the peak hours but still hits around 30-40 people on both servers so it seems weird that no admins are around.

Its usually because the admin sound is an .ogg instead of a .midi.

Also I want to add that even if you pick people in the dead times, most of the time they end up just going to prime times with everyone else. It's not really simple to deal with.
