I don't know how much I like this idea to be honest. Maybe make it a researchable weapon instead. That sounds quite Sciency to me

I picked up a silver coin, I think from QM office, and though, "Huh, looks like Two-Face's coin. Sure would be cool if I could flip it." And I clicked it. And it flipped. And I woooooowed.
But there was no animation on my character. I want to be able to see it being flipped. How can I feel like a mob boss if no one can see me physically flip the coin? I request this feature please!

A question on the slime processor. It sounds like from its upgrades (unless I read /tg/ commit instead of Paradise) that using it outputs more than slime surgery. I personally like the slime surgery as it's what I started out with and I like the extra work. Am I thinking this correctly by any chance?
-
Yes, they do, also note that positronics don't necessarily mean laws. If you take an MMI out of a borg body that was hacked and put it into a human it wouldn't have any laws, the same can be said for posibrains if you just so happen to keep the IPC body, have a new borg body, or keep a spiderbot chassis around. So technically, logic wise, laws are bound to bodies that support laws, not brains, which, if you read the highly irrelevant, pretty much never used in anything except for debates lore, was phased out a long time ago and never added to the newer models of IPCs.
I actually read that which was the basis for my question above. I might be a nerd

Its quite annoying when you are doing surgery and you eliminate all of the infections- But dear god! What is that? An infection on the internal organs? And its in a medium stage? Quick drown him in all of the spacaciline only to find out that there is a molecule of it left but... You are all out!
Man it would make for a great Grey's Anatomy episode.
I just want to say I love Scrubmcnoob's avatar when I read this.

Don't IPC's not have laws? How would getting a zero law affect them? Unless I'm thinking this too much. I thought positronic brains were basically synthetic human brains

My friend once tried to give each area its own ambient music when he was coding in our old server. It wasn't bad but he never finished it. I believe this is a decent idea but should be looked into a little more. Else, I know there are "disable sounds" buttons you can press so if no one likes the music they can just mute it. +1/2 for this idea

The escape shuttle is like a station in itself, attaching to the many other sections of the station when it docks. It is one of the few times where the different factions of the crew work together to hold back their common enemy: the graytide. They usually come immediately after everyone gets onboard, only a couple of minutes after docking. The swarm is almost endless, like a great fluctuating wall. Everyone knows that if any one side falls then they are all doomed. It is their final stand before their departure. They only hope that it is not their last.
and then everyone starts killing each other like normal!
-
Granted but now you get stuck halfway through your monitor.
I wish everyone on the station was an antag. (I just want to see how this is corrupted :3 )
-
I can agree with not having it but I know a few (read: one person) who would kill for such a feature. He did have poop working in an old build we ran but it has been lost since changing to a different code base.
You could find yourself doing a few more things with this though. Like a stomach virus that makes you go. And the farts as they were but nothing really important.

It was just a thought. More of a gimmick I guess. Now I know what it means that this is a graveyard

Name of Event: Graytsunami
One Sentence Description: CentCom scraps the bottom of the barrel and sends a multitude of unskilled personnel to work on the station.
Map Changes: No. Maybe Yes
Depends if there are enough assistant spawns or if you're allowed to spawn in the same spot.
Code Changes: Yes and No
No because everyone could just select Assistant at round start but a note might be needed for latejoins.
Yes to make it less of an issue and so latejoins will be in the event easier.
Suggested Number of Players: Any amount so long as head jobs are filled
Full Description of Event: So I keep hearing about this "Graytide" and its destructive qualities. What if everyone, aside from heads of course, ended up being assistants? First thought: The HoP commits suicide. Second thought: You'd be RPing as an incompetent swarm, one of which very existence rivals the might of the singularity. Third thought: It would be interesting to see this great fear manifested into reality. People could still do different jobs when assigned (so long as the captain also didn't commit suicide) and it would be a normal round. One where everyone is in a gray jumpsuit and screaming over commons radio.
It might not be too hard to code. Just make anyone who spawns spawn as an assistant with an irremovable gray jumpsuit. This however does require that heads are available so maybe certain characters would get that head spot. This doesn't mean that everyone has a fair and equal chance of not-spawning as an assistant. I'm sure there is some database entry that could be used or made to compensate for this.
+1 if this goes in line with a Revolution round

I don't want to change this subject from LINDA but what are the chances ZAS could be reincorporated? I remember it being merciless when exposed to space, sucking out all the air and leaving you to die. I kind of miss it I guess.
-
Rideable space carp. The best mount ever. Or any of the mobs from the mining planet. I think I'd like a Goldgrub or a slime as a rideable mob but that's just me and my slime fetish which I do not have at all.
Totally.

This sounds amazing. Super massive departments of all kinds. I just want a map like that. However the medieval theme is also very interesting.
I want Hydroponics to be a massive garden, where the floor is only grass and dirt patches with all sorts of plants are grown. And bees. Always bees.
Would it be possible to make a multi-layered station for this? I don't know how big a z-level can get but it surely can't be big enough for this sort of idea.
-
Okay so I know this might be a sour topic on some (maybe a lot) of people and I don't expect anyone to actually have an answer to this, but I have a question:
How the heck do bees work?
I was messing around with them earlier and I got two apiaries, side-by-side. I got honey from them and all, it was nice. I did notice that all the plants had their "unhealthy" light blinking though. Taking a scanner to them I find their Endurance was a ridiculous value. I don't mean three digit either. It was more like 8.1234 e138 or something. I know bees help plants out a whole bunch, but this is immortal level.
I've seen this in previous codebases as well so I know it's not just Paradise. Does anyone have a fraction of knowledge about this subject?
Edit: There was another issue I remember. The oxygen in that room also increased to where it was 50% oxygen and 50% nitrogen. Pressure also became an issue at times and locked the room down. Not sure if that was related to the bees but I also had dionas in there.

I think I can see a use to chewing off your hand (even though I really can't stand the thought). You'd be limiting yourself for a bit of extra security against justice. I guess you always could replace the hand with a prosthetic if you catch them again. Can you chew off hands that are not fleshy?
-
Can I try?
Granted but the results are, hrrrrrg, yeah...
I wish that all Xenobiology slimes were never hostile to me.
-
I guess I should figure that. It was never a problem before. Thanks for the help Spacemanwizard
-
May I ask what exactly I did that made what you said work? What are the mechanics behind this sorcery of yours? Are you secretly a wizard?

So I recently joined but played a few rounds on the server already. I have to say I like it and would want to try running this code base for some friends of mine.
The problem is when I do and try joining it, Dream Daemon instantly crashes. Windows says it has something to do about libmysql.dll I think. One of my friends managed to get the code to run on his Linux install after messing with Goon btime. I tried running a server on another machine but I kept getting disconnected when I tried to connect on that.
Has anyone had problems like these before? I am running BYOND Beta 508 otherwise Dream Maker wouldn't let me build it. If I could get any other tips that would be great.
-
What if you made it so that you need two recorders, just screwdriver them together so that one is input and the other is output? Seems a little more worth getting if you put just a little more work into it I think.

Hello, I am a newcomer to this station but not a stranger to SS13. I'm not here to so much as join your server (I doubt I'd get known well enough at any rate due to my Sims play style) but rather as to learn more about your code base and hopefully make a new branch for some friends of mine. I do plan to attend your server to understand its inner workings but otherwise I don't believe I will become a well off member.
I normally play as Captain on our BayStation12 server (just to keep others from screwing around) but I like playing as Hydroponics or Xenobiology primarily. The calm and slow process of growing plants for the station crew and the breeding slimes (gotta collect them all!) is a nice pastime to me. Otherwise I don't mind Robotics or Shaft Miner but those are slightly more situational and less immediately rewarding to me.
I'll try not to be too annoying or bothersome on here and the server. I'm sure I'll stick around for a while at least though. If your coders here could get things from /tg/ into BayStation12 code then hopefully I can come here for some tips.

Easiest way I make different icons is look at existing weapons and then copy all the human body icons and pixel art around them. Then again this was back in older code but it shouldn't have changed much
