Today, I present to you: The all-new comprehensive guide to meeting the supermatter love of your life! So, you've just seen a gorgeous supermatter crystal, haven't you? Catching feelings for her? I know you are, so today we're gonna help you get the date of your dreams! Step 1. Obtain all of your protective gear- You'll need magboots to stop you from slipping into the arms of your angel before she's ready to embrace you (make sure they're on!) And you'll need a radiation suit in order to prevent painful death via radiation burns. Messon scanners are a great option to prevent you from hallucinating, but this is the first and last time you'll ever date a supermatter, so who cares! Step 2. Contact the CE- The Chief Engineer is your best bet for getting access to your dream gal, and you should ask them about getting permission to meet her! Step 3. Prepare to flatter her- pleasing a radioactive crystal capable of killing anything in the universe is no easy task, so bring something to get her love and trust. Try giving her flowers, a cup of tea, or another sentimental object. Step 4. Small talk plays a big game- You need to talk to her; ask about her day, about her life, her family, and how she's feeling. In doing this, you'll be ready to dive deeper into your passion for that lovely, radioactive lady. Step 5. The Kiss- You've made it this far; You've got her love, her trust, and she's ready to get serious about things. You want to make the relationship official. Make the final move, go in for a kiss. If she truly loves you, you'll become a speck dust and join her among the angels. Step 6. Happy hunting- Now that you've read this comprehensive guide on romancing a supermatter engine, get out there and get going! You're sure to impress all the ladies!

Thanks to Norwest again for the Lavaland Dwarves. We were able to create the Dwarven Fortress "Lavalfell" and spent three hours decking it out. It had a mead hall stocked with food and manly dorfs, it had full atmos setup that refilled by stealing the atmos from lavaland, it had a dormitory, full R&D setup, and a giant ass temple to Armok. The amount of crossover between Dwarf Fortress and SS13 is awesome.

Name of Event: NanoTrasen Training Day One Sentence Description: Time to teach the Crew how to be a better Crew! Map Changes: No/Maybe? (Admemes spawning certain things may make it easier, see below [mostly Sec/Engi stuff]) Suggested Number of Players: Any, though higher pop could be a tad messier but "train" more people. Full Description of Event: An idea I've been toying with in my head for a while has been a semi-event/semi-changed Extended Roundtype where the Crew has a "Training Day" where assistants, staff members, and other crew cross-train or straight up learn new departments for a Shift. This could be a weekly thing at specified times where new players or experienced players can swap ideas and "training" ICly to try to teach new players or simply interested players how to do certain things in their departments. For example, Atmospherics can have a SM Setup tutorial, Security can do arrest drills with fake "antags" with some Syndie gear to play practically "tag" with, Science can do Toxins, RND, Robotics and such, and medical can just beat the shit out of some humanized monkeys and teach how to fix different races without worrying about SUPER SERIOUS injuries from the crew, Mining can do Megafauna training, and perhaps a SOO or Naval Officer can discuss proper Command behavior or SoP with aspiring future Heads or current ones. This would be something a Captain can decide to do in an Extended round, but you never REALLY know if its Extended or if its just a precursor to an Admeme event anyway. Hence why a CC Announcement of such a "Training Day" would be a big 'OK' that youre not gonna get T-Spider'd or some other spooky midround while teaching how the Turbine works. In a more OOC focus, perhaps allow Mentors or experienced Crew teach in voice comms some of the training as well. While this breaks SOME of the IC immersion, It may be useful to answer some harder or more nuanced questions. While this turns it more into a COMMUNITY event than an IC one, I really do think it would be helpful. Perhaps, if we would want to take it one step further, make it an Announced event on Discord or such, so that people can turn up if they wish to partake. This idea has been bouncing around my head for a bit, so any feedback or suggestions are 100% welcome!
