Monkeys are not hindered by tables and can hide under them, preventing you from shooting or meleeing them while allowing them total freedom to shoot back or whatever. Monkeys get bonus melee damage and critical chance or something but have reduced HP.

can you turn other players into monkeys again? because that was probably my favorite thing to abuse since they had to get a paper and pen to even attempt to rat you out

It requires genetics or a specific kind of 'monkey meat burger' last I checked. Also AIs and borgs understand monkey speak perfectly fine I think?

I can see EVERYTHING
I'm trying to get back into SS13, but I'm running into a problem running BYOND. When I try to run it, I get an error saying "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)."

I'm in Windows 10 and running as administrator. I vaaaaguuueelly remember wrestling with this a long time ago, but don't remember what the trick was, though that was probably on an older version of Windows.

I'm probably forgetting something dumb, but anyone have any suggestions?

I mean, given that this is a person whose first response to "I got banned for being dumb but now I'm not dumb how can I appeal" was to suggest tools for evading bans, I think you might be asking the impossible, here.

There's some players you just avoid, because even if you go after them with a gun you know full-well that all you're really doing is giving them a gun with less ammo than you started with.

I can’t count the number of times I’ve run in as a security officer and immediately slipped on a banana peel or the like. That’s embarrassing.

Nope, got through. I'm not poo poo, just wanted to see if I could. Actually pretty easy. Actually I'm a very upstanding player, thank you very much.

E: And ftr goonstation admins are great, but the other hipop server admins are godawful. Oh this rules, on CM the other day an admin told me the G slur wasn't "hard racism" and refused to do anything about it. So yeah, no reason to let those assholes push anyone around.

EE: Actually, I don't really mind sharing my technique with you guys if you want to use it for GS. No reason to evade there. Let me know if you're interested.

I don’t know if this server is designed for high pop of that magnitude. By the time it’s 10 minutes in, most departments would probably be stripped bare.

But at least QM wouldn’t be lacking in customers. Until someone bombs them, of course.

A combination of several things, you don't need a VM, and I'm not even that good at this stuff. It was a while ago but I'd be happy sharing it with the caveat that you don't immediately share it with the Bad Servers.

Never tried with goonstation specifically but I suspect it would work given the permissions SS13 has

Netcode’s a lot more stable these days. I played a week or two ago and I only noticed a couple times where I hung up somewhere.

Also, all the departments have landline phones. It’s great! Wish more people would use them.

I am really interested in getting back into SS13 after not playing for a few years - I tried last night after looking at the wiki and seeing a ton of people on, as lame as it sounds I get a little bit overwhelmed and I'm not sure of what to do :shobon: Usually I hang out as a scientist and make a bunch of synthflesh and healing chems for the docs, or build bots as a roboticist but I still find myself logging off only a few minutes after logging on, which doesn't feel fair for such a fun game!

If you see Hungry Pickins wandering around, I always enjoy getting involved in shenanigans
