wanted to mess around with style/how I draw vox. I love the realistic creepy look

Some art from lately

I'll start. Remap the Bar into a swimming pool. The bar is now a swim-up bar. Any electricity brought into the pool (including damaged IPCs) will electrify everyone swimming. There's a deep end that requires you click a button every few seconds in order to tread water, or you drown. If you're in the pool too long, you pee out any reagents in your system, that will then be absorbed by other swimmers. Emagging the pool controls turns the pool into a wave pool that throws people around at high speed, potentially causing IB, broken bones, or killing them. New Role: Lifeguard. Sit in your chair all day and point at the "No Running" sign around the pool. Have access to medical for some reason. A new gamemode called Realistic Simulation. There are no antags, and the round never ends until every player has eaten something, drank something, gone to the bathroom and slept in a bed. If you physically interact with another character before there's preceding dialogue, you're gibbed. IPC's can now choose a B2 Super Battle Droid augment kit as a species-specific traitor item. Watch those wrist rockets!

Hitting the SM with a pickaxe has a 1% chance of dropping a supermatter shard shard you can use this shard in spear construction. This spear will instantly dust a target that is hit by it.

remove the damage cap on electrified doors so that when you overcharge the station's powernet, greytiders explode when cutting the wrong wire.

Slaughter Demons should be able to jaunt in through the blood that's inside of people, gibbing them in the process.

This thread is an amazing fucking idea. -The ability to execute some sort of atmos code in the atmos control consoles. Like automated tank and air alarm control for instant plasma floods. -A traitor item called the Hot Potato, its a potato that gets progressively more likely to explode the longer it exists, and cant be dropped. Throwing it at another player forces them to drop everything in their hands and they then hold the potato. Whenever it decides to explode explodes in a 2,4,6 area or some shit. -When Nayshuns. -Omni antag, literally every antag but on one player. -Spark.

Didn't take more screenshots because I thought I was recording but oh well. As a summary, game mode was clings and sec was suffering pretty bad. Midround rolls and 3 princess of terrors spawn, however 2 were immediatly spotted as they spawned in escape shuttle hall and EVA. Pretty rough start for the terrors, made worse by one asking "Can we lay eggs" and another breaking the gravity generator APC. The former eventually laid some eggs but mainly being combat, the latter dying quickly. The third set up a large nest in xenobio that would last the rest of the round and used slimes as defense. But would sadly die of what my guess is lag in an plotted assault on cargo. The bald princess mentioned before died some time around this period. With all 3 princess dead we had a total of 11 spiders. A brown, 2 greys, Several reds, a black, and a few greens Thus began the spider clown car / train We would all gather at one vent, brown would breach, and 11 spiders would suddenly appear and murder the entire room and feast on the corpses, all in about 1-2 minutes. These attacks consisted of Bridge, cloning, morgue where we took a loss of a green or two, and the operationg rooms where we lost another 2 reds. Finally we launched an attack on vault as they had un wrenched the nuke, but they got it to AI upload so we quickly attacked there. The captain, blueshield and several others all with guns got fucking slaughtered. However, in the chaos the one brown spider who had been with us the entire time (Atomorojo I think) died, along with a red. The greens had laid 1 or 2 more, but the eggs were destroyed along with 4 red terror eggs. At this point we only had 1 or 2 reds left, 2 greys, and a green. So? We attacked the fucking ERT shuttle. And after much random pushing of buttons on the consoles, and nuzzling of the engines to heat them up... At this point I died, but right after... Mother fucking admemes launched the ERT shuttle and CC became spider station. Followed by much confusion from ALICE on why these things arent on the manifest, a confused message from what was probably the syndicate, and the end of the round. Amazing time you spider nerds. CHOOOO CHOOOO

Everything in engineering and atmos has it's limits removed and works closer to reality. -200C in the room? I imagine you have short moments before turning into ice rock. 10000C hellfire? Even shorter moments before you turn into soup. Atmos tech hotwires 1 GW Teg into network? You better have insulated gloves, otherwise you are about to have a bad time. Supermatter, if poked with thrown items enough makes bigger and bigger area of radiation. Room filled with co2? Oh no I gotta ru- *faints and dies from Carbon monoxide poisoning*. Also fastmos returns

Add a space version of gonorrhea into the game. Instead of banning people for ERP, give them super space gonorrhea. A non infectious disease that will turn crewmembers into non sentient hivebots in the final stages. Update hivebot lore to make sure that people know about the hazards of having sexual intercourse in spessman simulator 13.

I'm sorry Sirryan but it says "horrible", not "amazing", this is off topic.

Add ceilings, else why wouldn't gasses just vent into space? May give a bit of a visibility issue, but that's worth the gained realism and immersiveness.

New game mode, Honk Crisis. Everyone is implanted with a bomb that will go off if you don't honk at least once per minute. To survive the round you must honk. New game mechanic: Teeth, everyone now has teeth as an internal organ. Each individual tooth is numbered and tracked individually. Teeth can be removed, replaced with fake teeth, etc. Teeth degrade over time if you don't brush your teeth every 30 minutes. A new Dentist job will be on the station who can replace teeth that get damaged from lack of brushing. If you lose all your teeth you can only drink to regain hunger and also talk messed up. Punching people in the mouth has a chance to knock out their teeth.

Okay so we make a team antag and we give them an item that takes up one hand, and has a 70% chance to reflect random projectiles. Security is meant to take this antag alive. Wait-

Hi all, its time for another mapping discussion. This one might get spicy since meta is close to many older players hearts. Please read this through before forming an opinion, these threads are useless if you come in with your mind already made up. If you still disagree after reading it, that's fair enough. But please do at least give it thought. Metastation is poorly designed for para culture. What I'm suggesting: Replace metastation with a unique map that is distinct from the ones we currently have, EclipseStation. (Click that to view the webmap for it) We don't increase the maintenance factor of keeping a new map up to date by replacing meta, and we get a map with a different playstyle. Why have map rotation if we are just going to have 2 of the 3 maps be quite similar in design, with one being worse? Why I'm suggesting this: Right, here is my case against metastation. Primary complaint: Metas maintenance SUCKS for Paradise. Like, it's terrible. Lets see some examples: You are an antag in engineering maints, and sec are approaching, so you choose to run. What are your options? (Red circle marks start point) If you run north, you are faced with a super long 1x wide corridor, meaning you are almost guaranteed to be caught by any player with more than 3 braincells. But Sean, just run south?! Lets look at the south then: Uh-oh! It's the same issue, there are no alternate routes, there are no easy alcoves to duck into, there is just a long corridor of pain. If you look at the meta map, here. What do you see? ALL the maints are like this, every single one is a long corridor with no alternate routes or gaps to duck into. Why is this bad? Well, this might work on TG, with faster movement speed, stamina only combat, and crawling. But on paradise? Expect a tazer or a few disabler shells up your ass and game over. Antags will be forced to go loud in the hallways, or just kill sec instead of escape. Meta is not designed with para in mind, at all. Again, look at the maints south of dorms. This is terrible map design. Delta and box do everything meta wants to do, and they do it far better. This is not hyperbole, this is plainly obvious to anyone who's done map work before. Okay, but why EclipseStation? Just to make this clear, I'm not claiming Eclipse is the holy grail of mapping. It isn't, and will need work to be para-ready. But what does it offer? A unique layout, with departments being in an outer ring with a separated central area. Lots of maintenance room for antags or maint goblins to do crap. Well laid out departments that are functional for both antags to break into, and for regular players to just do their jobs. At the end of the day, fixing the issues with meta requires a hundred times more effort than porting a better map. And you won't find a mapper willing to do it since the issues are to areas integral to meta's design. Issues that need solutions: Eclipse will need remapping. I am willing to do this work, but community input on various departments will be needed. Areas such as permabrig, AI sat, and toxins test need a complete overhaul. Think of Eclipse in the webmap not as the finished product, but as the canvas to work from as a base.

After one year working at these offices he accumulated enough interest in NSS Cyberiad station, deciding once more to move in hopes of a great career ahead, starting in his field of expertise began to progress slowly from secretary, departamental bureaucrat and finally, with enough trust and experience, to wear the HoP mantle, where he did put to practice in those 8 years everything he has learned about leadership with his home culture and experience. Unfortunaly after this period of glory he was demoted for accepting bribes as a way to increase the flux of money into his pocket, becoming with this what he despised the most for a long time, an unemployed hobo. This period of three months, that did felt like an eternity to his finances, forced him to start over from the bottom, picking up jobs with low payments like deliveries and cleaning services to help with the bills of the shared room he had with Haru and for his family, only after joining Cooks Business Franchise his situation started to improve, with unique stores being open every shift he found himself with enough money to think about returning to his country and maybe, with the rich experience he got onboard Cyberiad, get for himself a diplomatic job...

Screenshots: Personal Relationships:

New Antagonist Role: Bluespace Gremlin A mischievous creature that loves tinkering with machinery and laughing maniacally. It is physically weak but fast and has the ability to randomly teleport itself short distances, like using a bluespace crystal. Gremlins lack hands and speak in gibberish that can only be understood by other gremlins. The gremlin's abilities are all related to causing electrical/mechanical chaos on the station - a small EMP blast, an ability that causes lights to flick and then blow-out in an area around the gremlin, and an ability that will randomly cut wires on a targeted hackable device, like a vending machine, airlock, or APC. The gremlin can hide under objects and run under tables, like a drone or cortical borer. However, they will randomly giggle when standing still for long periods of time and laugh hysterically when using their abilities, which might alert people to their presence. It's goals would be related to sabotaging key machinery or causing a certain amount of disruption aboard the station. For example, break 100 lightbulbs, fry the APC in the CMO's office, reset the RnD database, or shut-off the gravity generator. A single gremlin isn't that dangerous, but they rarely occur alone. An invasion of gremlins can cause significant distractions for the crew. A much less common, more powerful version could have the ability to e-mag objects to cause some serious damage or stun/shock attackers, but the main focus of gremlins should be on non-lethal mischief and equipment breakdown rather than killing crew or delaminating the engine.

New ghost role: Space Koi You take control over one of the docile space koi surrounding the station. Swim for the stars, sweet fishy!

So, double post but... I fucked with sec on extended some, but eventually they decided to beat the shit out of me and try to disposal me (kinda deserved tbhj)... So, what does bald man calvitium do? Revenge. Stole the bottler with help from HOP, got sugar cane seeds from botany, and a BOH of ice cream from chef 15 minutes later and I have 300u of black eye brew packed in smoke grenades. All of security on 300u of black eye brew is amazing. Oh, and not only that. It affects the AI to. So thats amazing.

To put it upfront, life's been busy as hell lately in finding a place to live, going from one end of the state I'm in to the other and at the time of writing, potentially looking in a different state entirely due to the job opportunities available there. I'm finishing off the last year of a Bachelor's degree online and moving on to a Master's program not long after, but as a result of that I'm not able and wasn't able to do as much shit for para from near the beginning of this year till now and a little beyond that to the point I'm not sure if most of you goblins remember me being around! There's been a lot of big shit going on when it comes to staff politics and as much as it sucks to say it, there aren't enough hours in the day to knock that thing out. I'm hoping that others continue the surveys Shadey started (especially as it's nearing that time again!) and keeping up at least the occasional community meeting to let everybody know not only what's been going on on the back-end, but to take in new ideas and feedback from the people actually playing the thing. Para's been a pretty big part of my life for the last 7+ years going from 13 to 20, I could say it's practically raised me in some regard from how much time I spent on it, especially between 2013 and 2018, but at this point I'll likely have to take the longest break I've ever had from it just to make sure things are stable in life. If any of you goblins have questions, feel free to toss em in this thread, otherwise, just try not to burn the place down while I'm out, eh?

This but unironically

Replace CMO's hypospray with a .357 lead hypospray for particularly annoying patients. Make shocks realistic by giving them a chance to stop your heart. Every machine has to be directly connected to an APC by a cable.

New Minor Antag: The Shadow Mote Spawns above a vent. Vent Crawling little shadow-loving thing who's only goal is to not destroy...but disable all lights that it can. Basically go into rooms, turn off lights, remove bulbs, maybe even blow an APC out once in a while to really get those lights off for longer. Slowly takes damage in the light (pretty slowly) but regens in the dark.

I'm of the opinion that sec should fail if they dont act as a team and with the crew. Going to the HOP for extra access is part of that. If you wanna fight crime in space as an officer play SPP or get the access from the HOP as a reactionary thing.

Sean, this is the seventh week in a row you've shown a new map in class. I do agree with your points about Meta. Now, I am a fan of many of Yog's Eclipsestation's features, especially some of their common areas. However, a lot of maints on Eclipse are just as bad as meta, if you look at it. Additionally, I do not like medical being on the opposite side of the station from most places, instead of in the center. Those are pretty big things to fix if the are to be fixed.

Papers, please. :)

Honestly still WIP, still wanna come back and work on it, but here's more stuff from my uh, worldbuilding thingy

It's the crack.

Wanted to draw a little character timeline thing!

No good reason for this one. Rivera, Angel, and Idunn respectively

More art I never uploaded here! always sunny screencap redraw with idunn raan, ever classy From the week of non-stop species change viruses, got diona'd after I had too much coffee in me for the cure to work, which was kind of deserved honestly A fun little thing I filled out for chiki Art of a scene on lavaland with a friends angry MMI and an extremely regretful chiki and lastly revenge art for the incredible @EmilitiaEnnehrt

and now for vox art spam, don't shoot Doodled chiki's old raider crew (she's on the right, uncaffeinated and un-quilldyed) Drawn from the suggestion "behind the scenes SS13" Fun art meme I wanted to do (it's Heather Mason, the name similarity is a coincidence) Artfight attack for @Franziska and a fun doodle of @Drakeven's gikikigi who is too cute to be scary and lastly sad art I drew of a round where chiki got thrown from the station by kikeri right after accepting death and saying goodbye with everyone seconds before the nuke hit and ended up being one of the only survivors because of it. it was depressing

I've been bad at keeping forums updated with spess art, shoot Here's some comics redrawn from a conversation generator The round where I learned servo was alcoholic and NOT robotic coffee after I got put in an IRC It's Always Code Green on the Cyberiad Birthday art for @punkalope and lastly art of @Jabronio from my ss13 miitopia playthrough that I won't explain

I demand everyone sign my petition to give diona nymphs hands once again, and allow them to charge into battle guns proudly raised Also if you say yes ill cut Robbie's antennae off by 1cm for each added vote in my favor Disclaimer: this thread is in no way serious, and does not accurately reflect opinions from staff or otherwise.

I sign, and furthermore suggest the sprite be updated to reflect these changes. Attached is artist's rendition of proposed changes. Furthermore I suggest the addition of a new nymph-based food item: Nymph-fingers, a crispy, fried lunch food.

USE A TITLE LIKE THIS: "Banned by ADMINNAME: Ban appeal for [YOUR BYOND USERNAME HERE]" EXAMPLE: "Banned by Regens: Ban appeal for [insert ckey here]" IC NAME: The character name you used when you got banned CKEY: This is your username on BYOND DATE OF BAN: Date you were banned, shown in the ban message you get when entering the server ROUND ID: Also shown in the ban message. May not always be present. Looks like a number, e.g: 12345 DURATION OF BAN: Also shown in the ban message. E.g: "until appealed". ADMIN BYOND KEY: The admin who banned you. Please type '@' in front of their name, so it looks like this: @Kyet. If you don't know which admin banned you, ask one of us privately to look it up for you. REASON FOR BAN: The reason as to why you were banned. Shown when you connect to the server. DO NOT edit this, quote the exact ban reason shown when you connect. YOUR APPEAL: Explain why you think we should unban you. The best approach is generally to read the rules, then explain which rule you broke in your appeal, explaining why you won't do it again if unbanned. If you're truly convinced you never broke the rules in the first place, you could alternatively explain why - but that approach has a much lower chance of success. Try hard to identify which rule you broke. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ EXAMPLE: IC NAME: Grayman Tide BYOND KEY: Greytide16236 DATE OF BAN: 7/9/13 DURATION OF BAN: This is a permanent ban ADMIN BYOND KEY: Regens REASON FOR BAN: Insulting people YOUR APPEAL: I broke rule 1, and openly insulted another player in OOC. I am sorry I lost my temper and did this, and will not do it again.
