Space ninja? All of that happened. It got erased from the code and kilkun started a reconstitution as "Cybernetics Operator" or something as cheesy. Then he got permabanned.
>defficiency literally just falls apart if you play on it
this is hilarious
>>125935573
Technically none. The map is UDMF format so there's no 16-bit limitation like in Doom/Hexen, but that doesn't mean iterating over 192x192 sectors every frame will work smoothly.

>>125936196
Don't be so angry. It's an elegant solution to double agents that doesn't use parapen+spacehead+braindedinlocker.
Besides only medbay staff can reliably do that.
Besides doubleagents should be merged into traitors.
>people create vox characters unironically
Cyber Connections is the name of the megacorpOperator is interchangeable with agent, operative, etc.It's just another megacorps post-human cyborg agent jfc god forbid someone tries to introduce some cohesion into the lore
You can probably consider that dead. I don't really feel like ever programming in Dreammaker ever again.
>>125935726
I had an idea that utilized impassible destroyable objects instead of walls, but that'd likely be even worse.
An alternative could be indestructable floors and sparing use of destructable walls. Like pic related, where green = destructable, red = indestructable. Basically the idea being, walls that line hallways are indestructable; but inside of departments, walls next to space and maint walls next to departments are indestructable.
It's still a lot of sectors, but it would cut down the amount drastically with minimal effect on gameplay.
>>125936403
I'm perfectly fine. I observed that round, and still think it's kind of shitty. It defeats the purpose of double agent. How can you successfully assassinate your target without bombing the station if he's changed his entire body and job?
>>125936581
How else do you think I had to find the mime as my target? I had to indiscriminately gib randoms in genetics proper since their chosen name was different than their profile start name.
How do i code?

>>125936403
> Besides only medbay staff can reliably do that.
There's an item available to all traitors called the DNA scrambler that does exactly that.
Stick yourself with it, grab a grey jumpsuit or agent ID card and you can stay incognito.

>catbeasting traitors that aim to make the cancerous greentextfags mad
It's like you want traitors to only go after their objectives instead of treating antag as the ability to do WHATEVER they want as long as it doesn't break server rules. He decided to get sneaky and hide in plain sight.
I bet you niggers just love rounds where an antag calls the shuttle because OBJECTIVES SECURED TIME TO GO HOME like an uncreative fuck.
>>125936526
You've guessed exactly what I planned to do. I'm essentially making "breach zones", which are specific areas that are commonly broken into or destroyed by random events such as meteorsor bombs, where parts of the area can be destroyed through various means. Basically, imagine that reinforced walls are indestructable and there's a bit more of them, and you've got roughly what I was planning. That and chunking some of the tiles together for explosion effects.
I'm likely going to start out simple with making one-tile walls that can be dismantled, then building on it from there. Gotta keep it simple at first.
>>125936921
what?
>>125937093
If you don't understand, read the codebook until you do.
Why can't large O2 tanks fit inside of fire fighting suits like rig suits?
It would be really convenient.
>>125937182
The what?
>>125937004
to add on that, if it isn't enough, you can probably halve the amount of sectors by making a ton of them 2 wall segments counting as one sector.
Another really tricksy method would be to make a script that would determine a width of the wall you'd want to be considered one wall, determining where, along a specific wall, the player is and which "wall segment" they are interacting with, and then creating a sector in that specific part of the wall.
Not sure if that's possible without getting down and nasty with the source with the sourceport you are using, though. When you finally release, I'd definitely look into making a system like that.
The only downside is that if there is enough destruction in a round, then it'd get laggy, but occlusion of those sectors after the wall segment has been removed would be trivial once the system was figured out.
>you will never nuke the station while Ode to Joy plays
>spend entire round doing surgery, screaming at people, making medicine, and donating four packs of my own blood.
I fucking love medical.
>>125937345
It would also be convenient for fixovein and bone gel to fit in a medical coat, but alas.
Yellow tanks are more than good enough anyway

>>125938054

>>125938054
Enjoy your permanent ban, obvious falseflag.
>yfw you realize /vg/ is the new ss13 furry server
I want to kill myself.
>>125937571
I could do some testing by making a couple of debug maps running various scripts on arrays of sectors, just to see how much processing power it can put out before the engine either slows to a crawl or dies.
I'm not too sure on the script part you're mentioning unless you're referring to making something that parses the raw map data and generates an optimal amount of sectors, since it's not really possible to create new sectors while the map is running due to BSP. It'd require a rewrite of basically the entire internal map handling, so yeah, I'm kinda leaning towards the former. For the moment.
I'm heading to bed soon, but tomorrow is more devtime, I'll try to get some basic stress tests done.

>>125938278
Oh no absolutely. That's something that I'd do myself once you released because I'm sure it'd require quite a bit of technical fuckery to even get working. Your idea of key points being grouped as sectors is a much more optimal solution.
I've done a bit of work recently with some of the technical aspects of a private branch of Voxlap helping a friend out, I'm getting more and more familiar with specialized subdivision.
The two engines I always thought that would be optimal to port SS13 to would be idtech 1 because it's essentially a 2d top down game in a first person perspective, and voxlap for it's really rather impressive world and rendering systems.

>>125938653
Get in touch sometime, man, you sound like a better programmer than I am. I'm just an autist with too much free time and a severe liking for old, shitty game engines and bending them to see when they break.if at allThere's a couple of things I'm not too sure about such as how to stably implement antag prefs or map/mode selection which are persistent across maps - DECORATE and MAPINFO allow for some of it, but not everything. Obviously running everything on one map is easier, but for now it's split up to keep things organized.
And yeah, idtech 1 is probably one of the most underrated engines when you consider how powerful it is for its age. Admittedly, a lot of that power comes from source ports, but there's still a lot of extremely clever stuff hidden in there.

Also, stacking multiple explosives onto the same tile doesn't yield a larger overall explosion area.

Thing is, the song is on the EMAGGED juke. It's supposed to be a bit off.
Besides, the games and its music are actually really, really good. There's another song from the series on the normal vidya playlist, and it's comfy as fuck:

That's fair game as long as you don't do it every round or kill them in the process.

They'd probably ahelp you if they feel like you're a non-antag. And expect to get your shit pushed in when the first person you do this to yells over comms.

If this is real, it opens up a LOT OF AVENUES.
Time to figure out how to mass produce tracking and reclamation boxes, along with where to get enough flashbangs and chloral to do it repeatedly without getting caught.
How would you successfully manage a hostage situation as a traitor? I'd imagine others would be involved, and so would multiple bombs.
Who would you have to kidnap and where would be the optimal place to keep them to leave when you get what you need and defend if security thinks they're rambo.
I should start playing medbay again and just implant everyone with GPSes like I used to.
>>125951946
>get a hostage
>hostage immediately ghosts
Every time.
>>125951946
First I'dunban 2hotdogs
then I'd interrogate everyone until they got bored and disconnect from the server.
>>125951946
It won't work, not on this server.
A successful hostage situation requires RP. Since we're a light RP server, Sec's going to break down your door and fuck you up rather than RP any kind of concern for the hostage. You know why? Because death has no meaning here.
They break in and you shoot the hostage dead? Big deal, they tase you and take the hostage to be cloned, he's back in action within minutes.
You've got a bomb rigged to blow up the hostage? They'll toss a flashbang in and run. If you don't hit the switch, they arrest you, and if you do hit the switch, they retrieve the hostage's head and take them to be cloned while Engineering patches up the hull.
Outside of managing to get an HoS who is willing to RP with you (doubtful), there is no way to maintain a successful hostage situation on this server.
I once had something like one by taking three officers hostage in the permabrig. The remaining two officers were waiting outside, not sure what to do. Even then, though, it was more the case that I had the three officers prisoner than that they were my hostages. The remaining officers weren't coming into perma because they were scared of ME, not out of concern for the "hostages."
>>125952662
That's why you make yourself invincible. Creatine in the chemical pack with all of the healing chems and oxycodone. If they try taking you, shrug, and kill the hostage and the officers.
>>125952662
>Because death has no meaning here.
Well, for starters, no one wants to die in a way they won't be coming back for the next 2 hours during double agent.
There are people who get anally imploded because they die, people hate dying here. Have you seen the drenching volume of tears in deadchat during a murderboning? If you haven't, you're most likely a derelict MoMMi.
You can always use death or being locked away in a place they can never escape or be rescued from as leverage.Shove this poor excuse to bring up your golden cattle,RP, back up your ass, because some people here actually do get in the mood to talk and engage in communication back if you initiate properly. The issue is that people don't like to be put in humiliating situations where they're being toyed with like a lab rat, so they usually go catatonic or braindead.
>>125953053
Have people started using the chempack to become Big Guys yet?
Last time I played the best use of it that I saw was a paramedic using it as a hummingbird feeder for his syringe to keep himself alive during a meteors round.
>>125953067
>There are people who get anally imploded because they die, people hate dying here.
Let me revise my statement.
The deaths of other players has no meaning to the average player here.
The Security team is not going to care whether the hostage lives or dies during the raid because they can clone them anyway.
>>125953256
I've seen (and been) the clown with a chempack and chemsprayer choke full of lube once or twice. I have to do it while also spreading peels everywhere with a fully upgraded emagged clown cart at some point.

Oh man, I got to do that once.
It was glorious, the HoS was frothing at the mouth to catch me.
>>125952662
That's why you don't threaten any particular hostages, you go full Dr. Evil on their ass and take the entire station hostage or you'll unleash your doomsday weapon. Bonus point if you have a backup doomsday weapon ala Ozymandias "I activated it 10 minutes ago" weapon.

>>125953927
>that mask
>loading it with creatine
gain?
>>125954018
During my final test before making the PR, I was able to have a constant feed of creatine and nearly every healing chem for at least 20 minutes. Unprotected spacewalks, tanking lasers, the works. My healing factor was even able to outpace the burn damage from standing in a welding fuel fire. It was actually the pressure damage that ended up wearing me down first, and only because there aren't as many chems that heal brute damage compared to the other damage types.
>>125954272
I really want to make a ubermensch gimmick as a Research Director at some point.
Try to cram as much mutation power, chems, abilities, weapons and everything into a single man.
>>125954410

see how long until he escapes
be sure to yell "SUCH IS THE FOLLY OF MAN'S HUBRIS' before you die.
>>125954410
Myself and another anon talked about that in the thread some time ago.
The best race for an ubermensch is a diona. They already get passive healing from light, enough to outpace toxin and mitigate brute damage. Additionally, radiation heals them.
>>125954561
oh shit I forgot about that part.
I still need to do tests on how much healing the radiation mutation gives a diona per second, and whether such things apply to burn damage.
Genetics is just so TEDIOUS
>>125954730
You could always start up a local server and do all your testing with the aid of admin powers.
Though I'd understand if that would kill the fun of it for you.
>>125954787
I should probably do that, but ironically I am too lazy to do that and not too lazy to do it in game, where it is much harder.

someone get me up to date on creatine.
do you still die of you go off of it?
>>125956651
Dylan did a reagent rework and I haven't used it since then, so I'm not sure if that changed anything.
As of a couple months ago, though, you would explode if you started a creatine regimen and then ran out of creatine in your system.
>>125956651

UNBAN 2HOTDOGS
>>125957296
Surely, if you meme hard enough, he'll get unbanned.
It worked for Kingston!
>>125957171
You've got some concepts mixed up.
If you (as a clean slate) take 25u of creatine or less, you'll incur heavy toxin damage until it works its way out of your system, no explosion. If you take 27u or more, you'll be hulked for roughly a minute after which you're guaranteed to explode, but you won't take any toxin damage.
If you take exactly 26u, you enter a stable state of creatine usage. From that point on, you incur constant toxin damage from the creatine in your system, as well as being constantly hulked. You also deplete the creatine in your system at a constant rate. If you run out of creatine, you explode, necessitating periodic refills. However if you don't take the right dose, and at any point go over 26u in your system, you'll also explode, meaning you can't just load up on 500u and be good for the rest of the shift.

>>125957731
IRC is the place to ask this time of night.
Question.
Why are clowns not removed from the game using the same reasoning as skeletons?
>>125957943
Skeletons were removed because they made no sense as a race. We're a light-RP server, not a no-RP server. Skeletons don't belong as a race any more than anthropomorphic shoes would.
>>125958127
so, why are clowns there?
They don't belong any more than anthropomorphic shoes would.
They both make the same amount of sense on the station, especially given the past record of clowns.
>>125958225
Clowns are there to improve crew morale. The job makes sense.
Is the bunker still up, and if so may I get through it?Name isMemeBeardshit I know I just got a new pc and internet.
>>125958263
Not really. Especially since they are clown aliens from clown planet. And have historically been a griefing job.
An argument used against the skeletons.
They're just as out of place as the skeletons, even if you put them to work.
>>125958263
As clown guy. How do I improve crew morale?
>>125958375
>Especially since they are clown aliens from clown planet
Actually no. The clown and mime on the station are not members of the clown and mime aliens, in order to afford them Asimov protection. They're just regular old humans in costumes.
>>125958541
>clown AND mime
God, what's with all the out of place meme-jobs who's sole purpose is to grief?
>>125958627
> Out of place
I know you're baiting, but the clown is the fucking mascot of the server. And people who play them are either extremely shit or considerably more robust than your run-of-the-mill assistant.
>>125958541
Clowns and Mimes are human though, they were just infected with one of two viruses.
>>125952530
Just make your hostage somebody you know will play along.
Skeletons were removed on a whim.
I has nothing to do with roleplay or lore or any autistic shit like that. Nexis got on IRC one day, asked, and received. Of course Rei and company overreacted and started parading around like morons after it happened since they were whining about them for a while, but that had no bearing on anything. And neither did your immersion.
Clowns on the other hand have been around for a lot longer. They're the posterboy of the game at this point. Even someone with clout couldn't get Pomf to get rid of them.He knows better.
