Sent this story to my friend who doesn't play ss13 about what happened last night and thought the thread might enjoy it too: I hopped on last night and noticed nobody was playing security officer (cop). I had never played it before so I decided why not give it a shot since one incompetent sec is better than none. Well, literally within the first 2 minutes of walking into the station from arrivals, I got injected with a mindslave implant which meant I had to follow the commands of the traitor who injected me, a mechanic named Stephen Colbert. He told me to arrest someone, and I flashed them and managed to figure out how to cuff them before they got up. The told me I didn't say what I arrested them for, so I told them "troublemaking". They had been messing around with teleportation, so they were upset that I apparently considered that worthy of being arrested. Following Stephen with the captive as he instructed, he took us to the airlocks, where he told me to remove her earpiece (i didn't know how to do that so he did it himself when I didn't do it right away) and throw her into space. Well, I've never thrown anyone in ss13 before so I tried some obvious things but couldn't get it to work. Went to type `say "how do I do that"` but I didn't have focus in the text box (in retrospect I should have used `ooc` or something) which meant when I typed the `s` I walked down and out of the airlock, dropping my captive and drifting off into space. Naturally, I collided with the scaffolding that was outside the station and was able to jump back to the airlock and into the station again but uhhh my master was not pleased. Eventually I ran back into him and he offered me a cigarette. I thanked him for it, knowing full well that it was probably going to blow me up or poison me when I lit the thing. Still, master knows best. I went to medbay to get my frozen-in-space damage healed up then made my way to the bar to find a lighter. Got one out of a vending machine, Stephen Colbert is there at the bar, he sees me buying the thing and sitting at the bar. He moves away very quickly as I light the thing and take the first drag. And as expected the thing blows up, gibbing my foot off and killing the person sitting next to me. I hobble to medbay to get patched up, and as they are doing that, Stephen shows up and blows up medbay, nearly absolutely destroying me. It is at this point that the mindslave implant has worn off So here I am, barely conscious muttering things about Stephen Colbert taking over my brain as a surviving doctor tries to patch me up in the darkness of the now obliterated medbay. Eventually I get fixed up including getting a new foot stapled on. So I begin looking for that Colbert bastard. Run into him a couple times but he gets away. Eventually the shuttle is called and someone drags in a port-a-brig, and I can hear the grumblings of Stephen Colbert coming from inside. Thank goodness someone knew what they were doing. The person and I drag the port-a-brig into the sec-only chamber of the shuttle, waiting to arrive at central and for the round to end. Suddenly, someone from the passenger cabin opens the sec door, pulls Stephen out of the brig, and then Stephen sprints out of sec cabin and out of the airlock, sending himself into the void of hyperspace. Turns out his last objective was to die. Good for him. And that was my first time playing sec Ruzihm fucked around with this message at 19:44 on Apr 25, 2019 |

Vengarr posted:While you're dead, try playing as a Ghost Drone to learn how to repair/construct things. Again, ghost drones are very useful but non-essential. People will ignore you, and you are obligated by the rules to ignore them back. These here are good suggestions for people like me who can sort of do a few jobs and/or are still bad with controls. Thanks!! Apparently ghost drones have been around for a few years! Had no idea they even existed

DarkDobe posted:What's to stop you crushering the disk in any case? Is there some recourse for the operatives? on goon, the disk is optional and just reduces the countdown (or increases it if a crewmember uses it) quote:An entirely optional objective that can nevertheless be vital to your planning. When used on an armed bomb, it modifies the countdown depending on who inserted it: 3 minutes less (operative) or 3 minutes more (crew member). Needless to say, the first outcome is vastly preferable from your perspective. The disk can generally be found in the captain's pocket and if your team decides to send somebody after him (be it undercover or not) in preparation for the main strike, remember that he is armed and likely to expect trouble. edit: on other servers where the disk is mandatory, it respawns if it exits the z level. consider recursively containing and deep frying it Ruzihm fucked around with this message at 15:36 on Apr 26, 2019 |

Zamujasa posted:It used to do that here too, but that was removed at the same time the nuke no longer needed to be armed at the Syndicate shuttle but instead on the station somewhere (a very good change). Oh! Dang no wonder he wanted you gone. I'm really glad to hear you had fun despite me trying to kill you haha

Oh yea I was wondering... is there a chance we could change the name of the "illegal immigrant" trait to "undocumented immgrant" or "undocumented"? I think it's actually more in the spirit of the actual mechanics of the trait anyway.

Zoig posted:I managed to figure out how to mine, instantly got irradiated while mining, and forgot my oxygen. I died in medsci while trying to stablize myself and figure out syringes. the last time I tried mining I got irradiated, hulked out of my suit, and was rendered unintelligible. I wound up back inside mining with no id, no suit, and unable to ask AI or anyone to open the door. I ended up dying stuck in the disposal pipes after climbing into the chute and flushing myself out of desperation.

EclecticTastes posted:Hey, as a suggestion, maybe set it so when the shuttle is automatically called because nearly everyone's dead, it can't be sent back, so that the round can't be held hostage for two hours by just one or two turbonerds. Seconding this!!!

Unitystation is licensed under AGPL, anyone who runs it or forks of it is obligated to provide source code at request to anyone who runs or receives output produced by the software. In other words, you'd better only let people you trust not to share source code onto your server if you want to have a private fork. This is good imo
