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 /tg/?
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.
BYOND Download link: http://www.byond.com/download/
A BYOND account is HIGHLY recommended
To connect: Open BYOND, click the gear in the upper right. Click "Open Location" and paste in the IP below (Visual guide: http://i.imgur.com/d9D82fK.jpg).

>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: http://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

New shield designs soon
This is the last of the new ones aside from a blank wooden sprite. If anyone has any ideas for another design lemme know, I might put in Solaire's Sun as one.
I'll work on the wiki later today freemin.
>>51753034
wait here's a less pixelated version of that.
>>51753042
Irvan can you look making botany plants consume CO2 to produce O2. Maybe it could boost grow speed, increase stats or kill pests to make botanists care about atmos autism.
Asteroid mining drills were a little too good so I nerfed them. The diamond they take to build slowly runs out, increasing the time between ores and thus the energy consumed per ore. Screwing open the panel and using diamond on it replaced the drill head.
I also tripled the base energy cost.
>>51753034
40k aquila shield would be neat
>>51754786
God no, the less 40kuck shit we have on the server the better
>>51754862
What's wrong with 40k?
>>51754946
>What's wrong with Power Creep: The setting
So many things, its fanbase probably being the thing most wrong with it.
>>51754989
R-rude...
>>51754989
stop being such a no-fun.
most fa/tg/uys love 40k.
and the actual 40k serb is utter shit.
>>51754989
>>51755302
/tg/ was created because of 40k, wasn't it?
So how's server pop looking lately?
>>51755860

no that's retarded
in reality the amount would be so small it wouldn't mater and for someone who spegs out about muh air controller so much you seem to like adding more processing to it
http://d20station.ddns.net/Wiki/index.php/Guide_to_Chemistry
by the way here's this
you people should make some pages because you actually wanted a wiki
round?

>irvan sets up a giant ouija board outside brig
>it's shit and the chairs are all too close to eachother, but manage to bang out 'BORIS' and 'VODKA' in response to questions before a resident faggot corgi ghost can whine at the living
>send irvan and co. on a quest to get vodka for boris the russian ghost
>he eventually revamps his setup in the bar
>it's usable
>irvan also becomes cripplingly retarded
>spell out GUN
>'oh, gun!'
>S
>'gus?'
>no
>takes three tries to spell out GUNS plural without him jumping to some other conclusion
>'you want guns and vodka'
>yes
>they fetch guns and vodka, collect it in a locker in the bar
>it's fucking loaded up with the armory
>try to spell out 'CLOSE'
>'closet? closl?'
>no
>let me finish
>'clols?'
>by now a ling jumps him and tries to murder him with the gun locker
>boris is sad
>ling gets his ass kicked, goes into hibernation
>irvan dies later, in the brief moment he's in touch with the spirit realm yell at him 'ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS CLOSE THE DAMN LOCKER, CJ'
>he pops outta cloning yelling 'CLOSE THE LOCKER' while i'm debating trying to spell 'SHUT' instead
>goes to bar, shoves everything into it
>closes it
>vanishes in a puff of sparks
>boris has been put to rest
>ling still at large, comes in and shoots him to death, drains him
>CMO finds the ling and the husked body while he's disguising
>'not falling for that shit'
>blasts the ling and gibs him
>irvan gets back to the bar, cloned again.
>asks if there's any more ghosts
overall 10/10
corgis are universally shitters, worse than mimes.
>>51763216
great detective work on the CMO noticing how we both got hammered and the ling disguised as me wasn't hammered.
>>51763303
See? Alcohol IS Humanities friend!
>>51763691
how else are you going to keep a patient asleep when you're out of sleep gas other than a glass bottle of alcohol to the dome?
geez some hobo doctors man
d20 being dead is giving me actual depression
>>51759085
Air processing is fine as long as it's making a feature happen. What I don't like is having 2000 turfs trying to average out a 10 kpa difference for two hours.
>>51766802
sounds like the air controller needs fixing :^)
Safety bump
>>51768320
No shit but everytime I get down there and think "yeah I'm going to optimize this shit" I am reminded of the big fucking mess all the procs are and just close the code tab.
quack quack quack quack quack quack

What the hell did you guys do? The air controller worked fine. Now everytime I join if the game's been going for 10 hours or so it's laggy as shit.

>>51780216
Get help
Ok, so I have only just started getting used to making maps on SS13 with the intention of making a server eventually. Problem is I want to show off the map itself, I just have no idea how beyond taking small screen shots from within dream maker and linking them together in paint. Anyone have any better ideas?
honk
>>51781877
thats what everyone else does
there was this one program a long time ago I tried downloading from /tg/ that would take a sector and automatically string together screenshots but it didn't work
>>51781877
varedit your viewport, you dummy
>>51781877
Use the special verb to set your view range to the maximum. Then make screenshots using F2.
