Bottom post of the previous page:

Once upon a late night sybil round, a roboticist was a traitor and needed to escape alone. He decided to make a borg army that killed most of the station. We were out of options; only one man could save us, and that man... That man is a chemist.
Wielding his trusty crowbar, THE FEAR runs fearlessly into battle!

Apparently, the bridge turned into an all-out deathmatch, and it shows. It's not especially interesting or unique, but I marvel at the quintessential aspect of the image which seems to perfectly describe the chaos in SS13.

Spoiler:

This image is pretty amazing, I even printed it out as a picture. Whenever someone asks me what SS13 is I hand this to them:

We made a LOT of slimes. I think there were around 500 or so, with multiples per tile. I want to try and abuse this for traitoring sometime. If only the slime following commands actually worked.

Posted: **Mon May 18, 2015 6:18 am**

The commands do work though, or atleast when I tried.

I'm not sure if you can tell but all of the vines are hardened, explosive ones, even the regular colored ones. More people need to grow kudzu.

Debug verbs --> SQDL2 query --> CALL SpinAnimation() ON /mob/living/carbon/human

HG used to do it a lot, I used to do it a lot, it's about the only use for SQDL2 queries on the server at the moment.

Does that only work for /human, or does it apply to any /mob? How about /obj? Can I spin a turf

Hypothetically if I wanted to make the floor spin, could that happen?

SpinAnimation() is defined (AT LEAST) as high as /atom/movable on the object tree, since it applies to both /mob and /obj (/obj because bullet casings use SpinAnimation() when they fall)
Turfs are /atom, as they cannot be moved (the shuttle doesn't move, it just does a lot of replacing of turfs)
If SpinAnimation() is defined at /atom, then you could "Spin" a turf, and given most of our "make this work on everything" procs are defined at /atom instead of /atom/movable, I'd say yes.

Just don't try spinning all the floor tiles at once.

Not that I did. <_< >_>

It's really trippy. We should look into adding spinning objects to hallucinations.

Posted: **Sat May 23, 2015 10:41 am**

I don't think you can spin only for one person.
I THINK you could set client.dir though, which is equally confusing.

Code: Select all

var/image/Haluspin = image(someAtom)
Haluspin.override = 1
Haluspin.SpinAnimation() //oh god do images work with spin?
dumbplayer.client.images += Haluspin
spawn(20)
    dumbplayer.client.images -= Haluspin
    qdel(Haluspin)

rough job, but there you go, if spin works on images.

Ah, yes, the joys of Machine Override.

Posted: **Sun May 24, 2015 9:53 am**

i wonder if its possible to animate rods and fuel tanks so that they attack eachother.

Posted: **Sun May 24, 2015 12:38 pm**

If one wizard animates a fuel tank and another animates a welder, I think they'll attack each other.
OTOH: protip, animate welderfuel tanks, because sec always deals with animatespam with lasers

Posted: **Sun May 24, 2015 3:38 pm**

Well it won't do anything interesting.
When Machine Override or Animate takes over anything it deletes it and replaces it with a /mimic mob that has the same name and icon as the "animated" object.

Posted: **Sun May 24, 2015 3:51 pm**

yeah, but will welder fuel or metal rods win? :^]

Anti boredom device returning and people drawing pictures on canvas. Is there an ingame way to obtain a canvas instead of having to spawn it as admin?

Posted: **Mon May 25, 2015 9:27 pm**

Posted: **Tue May 26, 2015 6:40 pm**

That's a deliberate attack/camp combo on the arrivals shuttle, which is generally considered a faux pas on the level of "Don't bitchfit if an admin deletes your core"

Posted: **Wed May 27, 2015 12:39 pm**

the round in question was wizard-mulligan and the crew was so incompetent they couldnt even fight off the blob with an arsenal of xray guns

You would have liked the old Malf-AI satellite. It was a notorious gauntlet of death and misery which claimed many men, often populated with well over 50 bolted and shocked airlocks.

Behold, the single oldest SS13 screenshot I have ever personally taken.

Observe...

- The old RIG suits, which weren't even seperate from the engineering suits IIRC
- The old wraparound UI, which cuts off a portion of the screen
- The old single-pane windows as standard (which I severely miss)
- Unupdated alien queen and GYGAX sprites
- Old ore crate designs
- And the single most SS13 thing - that this is a genuinely cordial, if slightly stiff, meeting between at least three factions, one of which is being translated via PAI

We're getting up to, at the very least, 4 1/2 years on this thing.

Posted: **Sat May 30, 2015 12:21 am**

You can tell it's old because they're not validkilling each other.

Aminata jelly i think. You can still make it

Posted: **Sat May 30, 2015 12:56 am**

Amanita jellies, yes. Guide to Food and Drink lists them as 1 Bowl + 5 units water + 5 units vodka + 3 Amanitas.

Posted: **Sat May 30, 2015 11:31 am**

The old UI didn't cut off part of the screen (unless you count your equipment slots overlaying the bottom left corner). Rather the screen was 16x16 tiles big back then, with the rightmost column and bottommost row reserved for UI. Now with the semitransparent overlay the screen is only 15x15 tiles big, or a 7 tile radius from your character to all sides.

Posted: **Sat May 30, 2015 8:08 pm**

I prefer the current UI, it feels more streamlined and you only see the parts you actually need at times

Posted: **Sun May 31, 2015 1:44 pm**

idk if this has been posted already but

There are alot of things in life we experience. Highs and lows, beauty and tragedy... But this? This is too much. That can only be punished to the full extent of the law for crimes against HUmanity.

This is a crime against any sentient species out there, in fact.

i have a 1080p screen and using 64x64 tiles, the 15x15 screen is slightly larger than my total screen space.
so no, this is not going to happen because it would force people to use teeny tiny 32x32 or ugly-ass stretch to fit

Posted: **Sun May 31, 2015 6:56 pm**

Also it looks like ass, i cannot believe anyone would want it back

Posted: **Sun May 31, 2015 7:50 pm**

back then people made a fuss over it for one or two weeks but in the end I think most people agreed that it was better than the old UI
