Space Station 13 and Its successors communities - Lolcows and milk... In spess

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
We do have an actual dedicated SS13 discussion thread. I just wanna see this thread succeed not have it bogged down by discussion that we already have a thread for. Maybe there should be a disclaimer in the OP like in the other SS13 thread so people don't get confused. Kinda ironic how this was a thread made for dedicated lolcow discussion to not clutter the main SS13 thread only to have SS13 discussion in it as well.
 
The only keybind I saw was the ctrl+b types for the last item placed into backpack.
It's still stupid imo not to have right click do it.
Tetris inventory also sucks.
Yes, pretty much everyone who isn't a part of groomden hated the inventory changes, I mostly miss being able to have multiple inventory screens open. the entire "its been having issues for 4 years" is a a stupid argument, the current inventory system has many issues too and it was a major turn off for 2 of my friends who wanted to play ss14.

It's frustrating because while it takes a little learning, SS13's inventory system is great.
You can shuffle your items around and then have one hotkey item on hand for each of your backpack, belt, and suit slots. You can also order it in the order you want to use those items if you're willing to drop and grab the next one.
It also only allowed one inventory screen to be open which fixes this devtroon's complaint.
I have no idea why SS14 changed that aside from enforcing MRP low skill ceilings on every server.

It was originally meant to be just slot based because item sizes were quite arbitrary and unintuitive. This was kept as now items can only be a few different sizes now.

This by itself was really controversial but then it got supercharged when, observing this, several persona non grata (Swept, Mary the creator of MarseyLoader, Rane) decided to brainstorm several deliberately bad suggestions to make it even worse. Mary then posted the suggestion on one of his alts.

Swept was then accused on Reddit of stealing the troll concept art he made. (archive)

That's the kiwi SS13 server thread, not the SS13 discussion thread. It was used for SS13/SS14 discussion only because the previous kiwistation SS13 thread, also used for general SS13/SS14 discussion was dead. Does it say "Space Station 14" in the title? No, it's "Space Station 13 and its successors" (though honestly it should be just "Space Station 13 and Space Station 14", Unity Station and the various 3D remakes are only a footnote) This is the SS13/SS14 discussion thread. I see no reason separating SS13 and SS14 into their own threads when there's so much overlap, and they're basically the same games (except one is somehow worse and more troonified)

This is a Prospering Grounds thread for lolcows. This thread wouldn't be here unless it was. The other SS13 thread is in the Off Topic board for video games, which in my opinion, makes it the place to talk about the game. That may not be the best thread, but its not the intent of this thread either. This entire thread was made so people had a place to talk about SS13 lolcows and not have the other thread be too cluttered. Also the "and it's successors" part in the title covers SS14.

This is exactly why I felt the need to backseat mod in the first place because retards were going to misunderstand what the thread was for and start shitting it up.

I mean gameplay discussion lead to my last post.

Have you read many community watch threads, especially related to video games?

Not exactly, this forum was made specifically so that discussion of riveria server (the original purpose of that thread) wouldn't get clogged up by drama posts. It's even mentioned in both of the ops for both threads.

There was another SS13 thread too that has discussion that also had people posting lolcow stuff in. I should have linked instead of the Riviera one. My point still stands but I don't want to derail the thread splitting hairs. I just wanted to say there are other dedicated SS13 discussion threads.

Huge SS14 doc dropped today. I attached it below. Written by a long time Wizard's Den staff. Originally linked here. (archive) It's a google doc. (archive)

Highlights:
1) PJB basically repeated the situation of him on /vg/ with another retarded belligerent teenager getting an exception to the age rule

2) This fucking insane person trying to psyop the author on behalf of Wizard's Den

At least they can read and write English though.
Ma'aam, do not redeem Maa'am!

IMO its fine to discuss ss13 here as its obviously topical and the hair splitting is indeed annoying
As far as I see it:
1) Is it directly related to lolcow content? If Yes then post here
2) Is it directly related to Riviera/(code/feedback/seething at gecko)? If No then post here (lolcow milk can be an exception to the YES answer).

You can talk about the retard tranny that got run off Riveria in both threads as it would be appropriate to both.
You can cope and seethe about bad features all you want like /vg/ discord retards here too. After all, they're usually coded by insane loons and the folks looking at this thread have heavy nostalgia for better times (for better or worse).

"This sucks" usually leads to "Why is this the way it is" which leads to "Who made it like this and why" which more often than not leads to tea.

As an SS14 example, here's the code to tell the identity of an unknown person.

So, when seeing someone with an unknown identity, such as a mask and no ID card, it gets their grammatical gender. It would be a one line change to instead get their sex, which is the actual information you would logically have looking at an unrecognized person.

This is an example of ideological concerns making gameplay worse. It also seems to imply that you can somehow recognize people using neopronouns just by looking at their covered body.

With git blame, let's see who worked on this block.

A porn addict that uses it/she. Now we know why this is the way it is.
