I know admins have probably got bored of the server or are busy with holiday stuff, but please take a look at what has been going on as of late.

There's some sort of bug when trying to spawn a singularity, I attempted one (as BB with consent of my BB) and nothing happened. The SM just vanished. No singularity spawned and I'm pissed. There weren't even any admins on to correct this at the time.

I think I'll head back to MRP because of all the shitters, though. There are very consistently more than three times as many self antags as there are actual antags.

This, the holiday one.

I'll be on soon though, unannounced, to see if I can catch some more bads.
Its not much consolation of an offer, but I'd say give us a few days.

As for the singulo bug thing, I've seen that happen in other rounds, not sure what the issue is with it. It'd be a null thing to fix, I don't know enough about spesh code to even figure out what the issue would be.

Well I joined today and one thing bothered me a bit. A server that has been open for such little time has no business having timed role restrictions. I've played this game for years, why should I have to unlock Captain and Sec? Should just be disabled. Or at the least be based on account age.

It's to stop people from coming in hot off a perma with a new account and ckey and getting head roles to grief.

From what I know it has something to do with emitters being on, which is utterly retarded. I don't code but I think it should be basically
If
(Power generation above tesla and supermatter delams)
Then
(No explosion, tesloose)
If
(Moles gas in SM chamber is greater than singulo threshold and supermatter delams)
Then
(Singlarity)
If
(No Tesla or Singulo conditions are meth)
Then
(Explosion)
I know that would probably be spaghetti code and I have no fucking idea what SS13 is even coded on but my fun antag gimmick was totally ruined. I very rarely roll antag and all I want to do is stupid fucking gimmicks like singuloose or exotic chemical grenades, and unlike ~70% of people actually acting antagonistic on the server I only do antag things when antag.

Last round I played I think the viro was a shitter.
 
I have enjoyed learning to play SS13 on kiwistation the past couple months. I went from hopelessly buckled into my seat, and hitting myself in the chest with whatever was in my hand... to carrying bodies to medbay or meat to the cook, mopping up blood, and growing tomatoes. Knowing to flick internals on at a moments notice, and be ready to flee from anyone.

I know I have a lot to learn, but I wanted to speak for a moment on griefers. At first I couldn't tell the difference between an antag and a self-antag, but now I can tell the difference, and I appreciate it when admin notices, and attempts to correct the problem of faggots/trannys&niggers.

Without an admin, I was left to observe rounds, orbiting a Murderboner. Until I would join with charactername "'Murderboner' sucks", and they would make characters who message me, trying to draw me into an ambush while I hid.

One round I caught murderboner murdering someone, and I relished stepping in and mopping the floor with them for a second, though some random person stepped in and killed me to make us stop assaulting the innocent niggerfaggot.

Long story short - I love that rounds rarely last longer than an hour, because ghostorbiting niggerfaggots the majority of the game is tiring and boring.

tl;dr suggestion: moar adminz pls

Not sure how well this would work but it'd be hilariously based if you could get a dark knight setup going and remotely release singuloose gas into the SM once this is fixed or exploding station vents if that still works. Always love to see shit done in fun ways

I don't know of any means to remotely open valves and redistribute gas flow, which is what is needed in order to remotely release singuloose. Nevertheless I can cause a proper singulo delam in 20 minutes. Less if I had done some things differently, but eh, I wanted things to be stable. I once had a delam too fast and it just exploded instead of singulo'd.

Have an admin look over the combat logs from the holidays and fucking permaban the shitters. ROUND 908 I got randomly murdered by two shitters as I was settling in to experiment. There are like six people online so I sincerely doubt that they were blood brothers.

How similar is the /tg/ codebase to Goon? I used to play a shitload of goon back in the day and heard after their leak it mostly got adopted into the other popular forks.

Is it a lot of SS13: Black Ops II murderboning bullshit or is there a reason to do anything other than go around robusting eachother with stun gloves and potato batons and flamethrowers full of explosions?
 
>Decide to play on Christmas, maybe slow shift can help me run experiments.
>Round has been running for four hours. Greenshift, I guess.
>Log on as chemist, decide to do some experiments to pass the time. Lowpop means low injuries and low responsibilities. Plenty of time to work.
>Why there isn't an automatic shuttlecall at four hours in, I have no idea.
>Settle in, hack a few doors to get a humanized monkey from Genetics and some cuffs from the Bridge, cuff the monkey to a chair and start cooking drugs for experimentation.
>Two shitters immediately walk into Chemistry and murder me for no reason whatsoever
>Checking on ghost menu, there are like four people alive, and one of them is hiding AFK in a locker.
>ROUND ID 908, was murdered by two people.
>Why do I even stay here?
>Be taking a break from Kiwi Station
>First round on an MRP server I used to go on a lot.
>Be virologist
>Be changeling. Oh Hell yes.
>Objectives:
>Get genomes
>Get tech
>Kill and replace a guy
>Quick ahelp to make sure that I can spread horrible diseases as changeling viro. I get the green light and get to work
>Slowly make my masterpiece.
>In the meantime slowly walk around the station stealth stinging people.
>Sure it doesn't have great transmission but the rest of its stats are amazing. Sneezing + Autophagocytosis seems like a good symptom combo. The rest are just buffs
>Problem
>It only spreads by blood
>Think about dart gun, attempt it and it doesn't seem to work through that medium
>Plan
>Build a smoke machine
>By using the blood of an infected humanized monkey I can make a massive amount of contaminant. I load that fucker into the smoke machine and let it rip at several places
>The mime figures me out and corners me in cargo
>Unfortunately the mime wasn't expecting an armblade to the face. Drag the dead mime into maints, strip and husk
>Virus gets cured pretty quick because basically greenshift gives the chemists tons and tons of time to make stuff.
>They lynch me and I lagspike as they attack. I would've fought back more effectively but whatever.
>They just leave my corpse on the ground
>Get up and walk into the maints. Transform into the mime and take their place
>Be mime
>Dick around with an airhorn and a foam armblade (because why not)
>Break into SCI and steal that fucking tech.
>Take my old corpse's ID and the beaker full of infected blood.
>Break into the HoS office, steal the HoS's gun because why not.
>Find the smoke machine and drag it onto the emergency shuttle
>Load it back up with infected blood
>At five seconds to ignition I turn that shit on and infect everyone.
>Nobody even bothers trying to kill me
>Half the shuttle dies.
>Shuttle lands as people ask for mime to be banned in OOC chat.
>Couldn't get my target because he vanished on Lavaland, I think. I only saw him once at roundstart.

The only thing I did wrong I think was not having that virus have better transmission, but eh, whatever.

It's an open source codebase based on a really old build of goon. It's different in many ways, mostly for the better.
Also, it has no stun gloves.

Really old like 4407 old? I'll miss chair flipping, suplexing, and tipping vending machines onto people, but maybe it's for the best

You can still tip vending machines on people. It flattens them (but not many people know how to do it).

Is it a new functionality or is it still just a chance to proc on
throwing someone into one?

I think it's that, and you can also grab one with grab and tip it somehow. And if you punch them too much to get free shit they fall on you.

Oh baby. I did feel like SS13 shouldn't be about DIY weapons, and be more a top-down simulation of Yakuza 0's Beast Style

E: after writing that I think I shouldn't play SS13

I'd advise avoiding Kiwi Station until the jannies can get back online, since the only round I bothered playing today (ROUND ID 908) had basically nobody and two shitters attacking and killing everyone they could find.

The shitters were named Jeff Pain and Ulysses Price.
