First one to have true parallax.
Paradise had a "parallax" wherein space turfs would just not move, which is what inspired Dylan to make his version, which is what inspired Deity to make his version, which Clusterfack fixed up.

Nope, they still haven't merged it.

Because they were actually waiting for our superior version to be fully operational, and port our port instead.
>>

Too bad ours won't be truly fully operational until Lummox fixes SEE_PIXELS to not fuck everything up

Porting is slow work

So many little differences between servers

Seeing more than 200 errors is discouraging sometimes, but in some ways it is a relief to slowly work through them. Thirty here, twenty there. It will be done in time.
>>
>>144950142
What are you porting?
>>
>>144950314
Ayy game mode from TG

I didn't like their implementation of glands though. There's no reason to have a snowflake surgery for it or even to have it as a subtype of organ. You can just use the current implant surgery we have now and have them process inside regardless.

TG has all kinds of little differences as to how they spawn atmos, handle vomit, and even interact with machines. It adds up to a lot of work. They have action datums which are cool but would be a ton of work to port, so I have to hack the functions back into our code.

Do tell
Haven't played in ages, was battling every other round w/ one of the Hippy station admins who powergames like a madman and murders as many people as he can when he rolls traitor.
It was actually quite fun though.

Well one, he had a solid point when he said that he could have touched those science toolboxes at any time.

And two, the clown had a bunch of the captain's shit, so either he was a shittler or a traitor, and either way I couldn't care less who offed him.

>>144954092
>Well one, he had a solid point when he said that he could have touched those science toolboxes at any time.

Yeah if there were additional prints and fibers on the toolboxes that would suggest somebody else had used it as a weapon, and if you had another suspect with strong evidence I could see someone making the case there isn't enough evidence, but there was plenty of evidence there that you should have been able to figure it out.

>And two, the clown had a bunch of the captain's shit, so either he was a shittler or a traitor, and either way I couldn't care less who offed him.
>selectively solving crimes based on who the victim was as sec

Yeah that's probably the wrong attitude.

>>144959008
/tg/ is a murder house deathmatch. You're going to be dealing with so many people who don't actually do their jobs, and instead rush to get the closest weapons then beat down as many people as they can.

There's so much murderboning from nonantags it hurts. /tg/ is also filled with lizard players who spawn a role, take the ID, throw off their clothes so they can be naked scalefags, and then refuse to do their job or use the bare minimum their access gives to get whatever weapons they can and then run off to kill the captain in "protest" of Lizard treatment.
>>
>>144959008
You can play on all three, no need to stick to one server at all times.

/vg/station is my main one, still not sure why tee bee aych

/tg/ isn't actually 4chan related and has a huge number of <18 year olds (so does ours but at least they hide it)

Hippie station has sort of the same community as vg, but it's larger, the admins are less friendly, and the players have a murderboning problem.

Goonstation is basically Reddit: the server.

Yogstation is goonstation with less people, more ARPEE, and a shittier community

Colonial marines is actually really fun, mainly because of how different it is. The admins are bad, but the player base is diverse enough that you'll find some non autists to metafriend
>>
>>144961237
>no longer
It's still in keeper until after it's emagged though
It just means once you emag it you can't do anything to it.
>>
>>144961659

The point is that you can't tell it to emag you, which is what you did

That wasn't made clear from the post, in which case it's equivalent to an AI/borg asking someone to change their laws. Which you should have said to begin with.
This is probably the reason you shouldn't post about bans/ban appeals in an anonymous general by the way.

I don't like how NT is seemingly the only big company in ss13, it controls the station, has centcomm and is so powerful it can just bluespace artillery anything on the station in an instant, and never miss the intended target.

Admins should stop abusing the lol bluespace cannot button, it makes no sense that NT has this technology and doesn't use it against confirmed hostiles like wizards, syndicates or revs.

Also there should be obvious advertisements for other companies, make it feel like the universe is actually more than just nanotrasen and the syndicate with different companies, maybe turn the station into a jointly owned station, with various companies owning/supplying various parts of the station. Perhaps medbay was built by a medical company, and so on the station products/chems not used by that company is illegal as they'd want only their stuff being used.


go back to bay you polarisnerd
>>
>>144963874
Right
>>
>>144964427
Here's the thing - If centcomm doesn't act all-knowing, people will moan

If centcomm does act all-knowing, people will moan.

If centcomm does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, people will moan.

So sod off and buy some discount dans.
>>
>>144964646
If the admins do all three it's even worse. One route should just be selected and enforced.

Just come up with some head canon bruh.
CentComm is just The Cabin in the Woods all over again, except the people watching over the station get a good laugh at the misery of the station, they're just appeasing their own boredom. They don't interfere because then it'd be boring, if they do interfere it's because they want to spice up the round. You can justify a lotta stuff in a lotta ways.
>>
>>144964759
Yeah, there's very few things like those and discount dan's that show other companies exist. But they're very low-key and aren't anything of importance.

>>144964914
I'd like there to be just a set lore, even if players don't really know it all. I'd just want admins to all do their adminevents in such a way that it all fits together, and aren't just one off memes that contradict one another and lore.
Muh lore is important.

That's impossible to organise, and results in an autistic constriction around admin activity, and eventually player fun in a way.

If anything it's supports the idea of hard round resets where no one remembers anything from a past round because we're all clones on a testing ground.

Actually, the little lore we have dictates that NT started with medical stuff, so medbay is theirs
Science would be theirs too, NT is here for the plasma

Maybe, engineering could have been hired from another, supplying company; except engines often run on plasma, which is NT tech.
Service, including Supply, would be a fuckton little supplying companies, no point in defining any of those.

If you really want two major companies present, it'd have to be NT and whoever supplies all the sec officers and gear... which right now is probably Centcomm, which is NT.

Don't start as a Borg. Start as an assistant for one round just to learn the controls, then move on to cargo tech. After a couple rounds there, try out all the jobs to see what you like and don't like. You shouldn't play borg until you have a fairly basic knowledge of everything in the game.

the main problem is we keep nerfing lings because people get butthurt when they get stung and succ. they whined untill para sting was split into silence and "paralysis" stings. you cant take both at roundstart so you need a way to stun, cuff, and or mute your victim or be outed early. our lings have no way to defend themselves besides stings, which only make it easier to be discovered. "THE MIME STUNG ME CREMATE HIM"

traitors can buy ebow/esword combo at roundstart and litterally kill everyone on the station. 1 ebow bolt, and a few esword hits can kill before they can type, and even if they do manage to say something, the radiation damage muffles their speech or they can just get a signal jammer to stop the cries for help.

but lings are limited to silence sting + makeshift prod/flash + cable cuffs OR para sting + lucky (lag and BYOND ticks) enough to remove headset before they start screaming + cuffs. then they have to fiddle with picking up the victims headset / dropped items, drag the victim somewhere quiet to SUCC for 5 minuets , then dispose of the husk discreetly.

the real problem here is, we keep trying to balance game modes around traitor when we should focus on making game modes more unique. traitors should just be normal humans with access to lots of illegal tools and weapons to complete the objective given by the syndicate.

lings should be horrific alien monsters that plays with its morphology like clay. It should be all but impossible to kill a ling with conventional methods. They should be the most effective killing machines while completely naked.
Ling should be able to ,instead of absorbing, use some genomes to infect and assimilate victims to keep players in round and add new antags. Lings need more ways to survive a fight such as splitting body parts into mobs and ventcrawling away as a headcrab (norris) or maybe some sort of auto-cloner fleshy mass they can make and hide somewhere safe.

Fuck off with this 'pls involve everyone' bullshit. We have modes like that already like cult and rev, and people even try to get themselves banned so they don't have to join in.

Why are you so aversed to the idea of a single player having more power than others versus a team of people who have to work together to beat them? That's how the best modes work so far in the game and the same logic applies outside of ss13 in other videogames and table top games.

yea I knew someone was gona shitpost this. sure their are other modes that convert players into antags, but with lings it should just be an OPTION.

>cult
their man objective is to summon their dark god. they NEED to convert at lest 9 for the ritual. converting isnt their end-goal, papa narnar will convert all of reality for them.

>rev
rev is such a shitty gamemode. whoever is headrev just speed flashes everyone on the station before the assistant even has time to break into the caps office. Its a gamemode that should only work on heavy RP servers that actually respect NT authority and have a reason to overthrow the captain. also the infinite flash of karl marx is poorly implemented. their should be an actual way to willingly convince the crew to join the revolution instead of clicking on their sprite, but again this server hates RP.

>xenos
the only actual argument for "assimilating ling is too simular to other modes"
not an actual gamemode anymore. used by admins to end shit slow rounds like LING kus the ling already has his objectives and is waiting in the bar for shuttlecall and greentext.
xenos still play completely different. Xenos cannot infiltrate the station ling a ling. Xenos have to have a queen/nest they need to protect. xenos need their victims ALIVE in order to make babies. Lots of teamwork is needed to win.

Lings should still be able to fuck over other lings for their precious genomes. If your a solitary ling in a tatorling round it may be better to make a single ling-bro to help divert attention and bail you out in a pinch. If their are already multiple lings, they CAN try to assimilate the entire station at the cost of limiting their ling powers. They could always just eat their own babies to regain the genomes to use in horror form. Assimilation should just a TOOL for lings to survive and cause confusion and parinoia

SS13 is a MORPG.
As such, lore has to be dynamic, rather than set in stone and higly defined.

Do you, as a cap, want to learn paragraph upon paragraph of some autist's "A treat on the History and Hierarchies of Nanotrasen throughout the last 10 gorillion years" to remain consistent whenever you want to indulge into roleplay?
Or would you rather have a small, concise piece of lore you can use to make up bullshit on the fly that, with the simple starting limitations remains concise?

You're not responsible for the actions of things you create though. It's the same as potential harm, potential involvement would wreck mommis to the point where they couldn't do anything. "What if someone uses the black hole I just created to kill everyone" "What if someone turns off the cooling on the engine I just created to kill everyone". A similar scenario would be a mommi creating a shitload of guns and leaving them laying around in its nest or maint. Is that involvement ? It's not giving them to anyone, it's just leaving them on the ground. As to answer why would it be creating a bunch of guns in the first place ? There's nothing in its laws stating it can't, other than it could potentially lead to indirect involvement.

Keeper doesnt prevent a mommi on keeper from finding an emag and using it on another keeper mommi. Once the 2nd mommi is emaged it is slaved to the first mommi and loses its keeper set. However the first mommi is still on keeper and therefore cannot interact with the now emaged mommi. The emaged mommi is basically free to do whatever. But if thet try to emag the first mommi, that mommi is lawbound to try their best to avoid any interactions with non keeper entities including being emaged. If they just stand still to be emaged they risk a jobban. Its a shitty situation for both parties. We had a simular argument over regular traitors an emaging mommis. Whether avoiding or staying still to be emaged was considered "interfereing" with non keepers was still being debated. " im going to emag you and if you try to stop me or run away that is intefereing and a bannu"

There's a difference of it being the influence of a third party or being a direct result of your actions. Emagging another MoMMI while you yourself are on KEEPER is more equivalent to purging the AI's laws as non-antag borg than your example of setting up the singularity.

I guess the best way to work around that "paradox" would be to completely ignore everyone. That's what I do. I just act like they aren't there (unless we're talking exposing people to dangerous environments). If what I'm doing involves staying still for a long enough time to get emagged, then so be it. But if I'm busy moving stuff from one side of the station to the other, or going out in space, then I'm not really avoiding the person, thus not involving myself. I'm just doing what I was already doing.

Cue people crying because the guy they just turned into a ling just absorbed him before he could do anything, or shouted about how a ling just attacked him for everyone to hear. And if you make them an actual team game without nerfing them into the ground (limited regeneration uses at MINIMUM), they've got so many advantages over the crew that their victory is all but certain.

This "option" would do far more harm than good, but if you want to completely reinvent the mode from scratch, be my guest.

Just don't come crying back here when you learn it's actually worse than what we already have. I'll just say I tried to warn you.

They should turn corpses into zombies instead, nobody is obligated to keep players in the round. And if you want to stay in so badly, try genetic backups for a change, or teaching medbay how to do a brain transplant.

Nobody ever uses genetic backups even though they can clone you post-gibbing. For setting that powerful, I'd expect them to be actually used.

Retarded ideas for rev rework
>no flashes, instead, rev paint can
Would work like a crayon, only that this graffiti takes long to be cleaned with soap or stuff and that unimplanted people can convert themselves if clicking and waiting some time (Same time as wrenching machines maybe)
Also not allowed to do in maint + space
You would get the typical shitters rushing to become antags and security/other crewmember to stop people from converting by just pulling people or flashbanging them when near a rev graffiti
No idea if that would work

>>144984430
Honestly since the silicons need some kind of defensible proof that someone is non human, and changelings can change.. identities.. it's not a BAD idea but it is a dangerous one and will likely end up with you getting shit on because you didn't carefully control the silicons every move and they went and killed all the non lings.

I could say otherwise, being emagged allows communication with people and could improve your ability to work.
Besides the point, but emagged mommis are very rare to cause a station to fall apart that bad. They usually just plasma flood or build a deathmachine that fires glass shards from a displosal.

Graffitis have an area of effect, which stacks. You can either place them at remote places in the hopes people stay there long enough to be converted, or you place them in high traffic areas in an attempt to get yourself really heard. Risk vs Reward. Especially considering that the spraycan won't be a one-time use and you can spray a lot of graffitis, if you're good enough you can bring most of the station under your influence.

And there's nothing stopping people from suiciding after being flashed. Hell they can just waltz up to security like that and get implanted after being flashed. Some people just don't want to be recruited for rev out of personal preferences. This gives them at least a chance to not get stunned and flashed in the first place.
Personally i do absolutely nothing if i ever get recruited as cult or rev because i don't like how the gamemode is currently played. At least this way i could just go around and spraypaint more graffitis and bring SOME use to the "team".

nice slippery slope reasoning. logical fallacy is the best meme.

If you get assimilated by a ling, you should be honor-bound to them just like a thrall or apprentice. However there are usually 3-4 lings if its not mixed. "new"lings can still fuck over OTHER lings but not their parent ling. The parent ling can still choose to eat their own babies to regain some genomes.

So, IF the 3-4 roundstart lings ALL choose to compete with their ling brothers AND choose to add to their numbers instead of evolving themselves, then you could potentially have multiple gangs of lings attacking crew and other ling camps. the ultimate goal in this situation would be for 1 gang of lings to outcompete the others, cannibalize their brothers and cousins, and finally the papa ling to re-absorb their now-genome-filled children.

would you rather be SUCC-ed early and get a chance to be a ling too, or get SUCC-ed and shitpost in deadchat/thread for the rest of the round and hope to get dionae/golem/posibrain?

>>144984135
>>144984578

Its not about being taken out of the round, its more about solitary lings being outnumbered and having a way to have some teammates of its own.

besides.

>implying a geneticist would pull away from MUHPOWERS to scan you

>implying mechanics ever actually do their job and upgrade anything
>implying a mechanic making an entire secret cloner set-up just to auto clone himself once the crew discoveres his probiscus woudn't be wasting his time and resources

what would be cool tho, is instead of making corpses into zombies, have a ling power that makes the ling look like a husk except on close examination and port over arm blades and fake arm blade sting

kill someone + fake arm blade them + fake husk yourself + scream over radio you were attacked by ling + ????? = profit

Or you could just wait for the round to end and try your luck again next round.

I'm no mix guru but for a standard mix I make 25 cryox, 25 clonex, 10 Anti-tox, 10 alkysine, 5 reytalyn, 5 dermaline, 5 dex plus, 5 bicardine.

And if you want to be fancy then make a cloning mix and a healing mix.
Also it is in the wiki.

My most trusted redshirts don't even fight each other if one is an antagonist. The bond between the robust never breaks. Even Yred is a good redshirt, as obsessed with valids as he is.

Trinity is not to be trusted, and she knows it. She has already exiled herself from sec comms.

yeah someone jacked the gooncode at last and goon did the sane thing and released their current build after cleaning it up for everyone to see to take the negative attention away

they still remain closed source.

the big joke played on everyone is a lot of goons code is shit and it's little wonder why goon has always lagged like fuck.

we've adopted snippets but converting from goons branch to ours is a big chore and it's easier to whine for it than code it.

Celt, there's an obvious fucking frame of reference here.

I didn't ask if money was materialized out of nowhere or if the money disappeared.
I asked in the frame reference of me, the buyer.

if you space a ling do they die forever

>>145021371
>if you space a ling do they die forever
No, they can regenerate while in space.
However if you weld one into a locker without space protection and space the locker, they'll essentially be helpless, since they'll always die again before they can manage to break out of the locker.

>>
>>145021371
Strip them of EVERYTHING and leave it somewhere else.
Leave them one tile away from a wall in space using a jetpack and dragging their body.
They can regenerate forever and regenerate their limbs, but cannot move past that point if they don't have anything to throw.
So close, yet so far away.
Unable to die, they will just curl up in a ball, and stop thinking.

The trouble with that is, lings can use guns, including stun weaponry.
Even being alone with a regular human can be incredibly dangerous if he has a taser and you don't.
To give the changeling more abilities on top of that is to make it nigh-undefeatable one-on-one.
>>
>>145023542
like its disappointing that i need to say this but i actually need to say this.

If you want things you need to code things.


all available lines are busy.

you are on hold.

coders are not abstract concepts like this is Overwatch or some popular new release where you just complain and because you gave them money they maybe listen.

these people are players that for free add more shit to the game. be like them. don't make excuses about how you can't code and learn like them. put in the amount of effort they do. you will get the shit that you want.

>Infection Spore
>Chemical you can secret into any container
>Must be ingested or injected into someone in the same way other chemicals are (no stings, must use pills, syringes, spike food)
>Only one person at a time can be infected
>Has no effect on the victim at all
>Doesn't metabolize, but can be detected with an advanced mass spectrometer
>If the ling that secreted it died and its body is destroyed (or if it chooses to) it can activate the spores in the victim, only works if the victim is alive
>Once activated a timer starts, during which the victim starts to feel effects akin to regular viruses (nose-bleed, coughing, watery eyes etc...)
>Once activated, shows up on med-huds and advanced scanners as if it was a virus
>If a surgeon doesn't cut out the spore mass in time, the ling takes over the victim's body, gains ling powers but only retains the number of genomes and the powers it had at the moment of secretion of the chemical

On one hand it makes lings much harder to take out, on the other, it may be hard to get someone to ingest something without noticing, especially if you aren't medbay / the chef. And once activated, the victim has a clear indication that something's wrong and plenty of opportunity to get rid of the infection, if nothing's done then the ling definitely deserves to come back.
>>
>>145023542
Why not remove ling as a game mode and just add lings as a feature of blob?
Think greytide implants, but for blobs.
After it consumes your body when you fall fighting it, the blob can spend resources to infest your body and revive you as a ling that answers directly to the blob overmind that can plant nodes in places, and absorb people and transfer its genomes to your resource pool.
So you can pretend to fight the blob, only to wreck everyone's shit. "Oops HoS, my laser missed."
Loyalty implanting soldiers before sending them in to fight the blob would stop them from being lingified.
>>
>>145024849
ah yes the one thing blob needs.

more weapons. in fact, more weapons that can one shot players.
>>
>>145024702
It should just show once a ling takes control of someone.
>>
>>145024849
doesn't the blob spore mobs already turn people into zombies?
>>
>>145025317
I'm pretty sure the blob spore mobs just damage people.
>>
why we can't get rid of ling entirely and add another thing to replace it as a gamemode?
>>
>>145025610
Because no one wants to code an entire new gamemode from scratch.
>>
>>145024185
But with them being harder to kill it actually makes them more likely to go loud. The reason lings don't go loud right now is because once they're caught and cuffed there's very little chance of them escaping, even less so if there's a secborg. Same reason why most antags don't go loud really, a single taser shot and it's over.

If you give them more ways to rapidly blend in they can quickly move between going loud and returning to anonymity, assuming nobody saw them changing back. That way, the ling's gameplay will revolve around choosing the right moment to strike, gauging how difficult each battle will be and making sure you have an exit strategy. Meanwhile, the crew will have to be super paranoid about everyone (and everything) stick together at all times.

Add in a way to antag check lings (and only lings) and you force them to act more drastically, using their toughness as an advantage in combat. Conversely, they shouldn't have to worry about a lucky shot instantly fucking them over.

Check which chemicals are blue and add them to the mix (a single unit is enough to change its color). Obviously water will cause mass slips if applied in a smoke bomb though. Keep in mind chemicals in a gas grenades are applied to those inside the smoke.

Calm your tits, I'm planning on giving them organic armor after the arm blade is merged.

Basically, it's instant armor which is also spaceproof, with stats roughly equal to a red space suit.That said, you'll still need internals and unlike a regular hardsuit syringes can inject through it just fine.

What would an acceptable price for that be, 4~ genomes or so?

Question about Toxins
When securing the plasma canister, it keeps spewing everywhere despite being wrenched in. At what pressure does the plasma escape into the room? Also, do the pressures from both the plasma and o2 canisters need to be equal when mixing them into the empty one in order to get an equal mix of both?
