07 January 2013

Kor updated:

  • Four new slime types with their own extract reactions have been added. Sprites this time were created by Reisyn, SuperElement, and LePinkyFace.

02 January 2013

Kor updated:

  • Slime breeding! There are now 13 varities of slime, each with its own extract reaction (inject five units of plasma). Some of these reactions are reused from the old cores, some are new. As to breeding, each colour of slime has a series of other slimes it may mutate into when it reproduces.

Giacom updated:

  • You can now use wallets as IDs and equip them in your ID slot.
  • Firesuits are once again effective at protecting you from heat. The flames themselves will still hurt you, even with a firesuit. The damage protection is much better with a firesuit though.
  • Engineering starts with a PACMAN generator for jump starting the singularity if the power runs out of the SMES. 30 plasma spawns in Secure Storage inside the crate, to use as fuel for the generator.

31 December 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Simple animals (Corgis, Cats, Constructs, Mice, Etc...) can now pull people.
  • You can quickly stop pulling on someone by pulling them, while they're already being pulled by you. For example, CTRL+Click on something you are pulling to quickly stop pulling it.

30 December 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Emitters now require to be wired in order to work. When there is not enough power it will stop shooting until there is enough power, meaning you do not have to turn it back on, just get the power flowing.
  • You can order shield generators from cargo. Teleporter access is required to open the crate.

Ikarrus updated:

  • Map: Reorganized the Command Sector. The Captain has his own private quarters in addition to his office.

26 December 2012

Ikarrus updated:

  • An agent card is now required to use doors and controls on the Syndicate Shuttle (Nuke).
  • Scanning gas tanks is now a PDA-cart function. Only Atmos and Science PDA carts have this function. Have fun mislabelling gas tanks!

23 December 2012

Giacom updated:

  • The syndicate Military PDA will not show up on possible PDAs to message anymore, even when the receive/signal is turned on. You can still send messages and people can still reply to you.
  • You can now sell processed plasma for supply points. The conversion rate is 2 plasma sheets for 1 point. You must put the plasma in a crate for it to count.
  • The mecha toy prize promotion has officially ended. You can no longer redeem all 11 action mecha figures for a real mech. New toy redeeming promotions in the future will be considered.

21 December 2012

Ikarrus updated:

  • You can now use . to speak over headset department channels in addition to the : and # characters.

19 December 2012

Nodrak updated:

  • You can now use # to speak over headset department channels. For example say "#e Hello" will say "Hello" over the engineering channel. say ":e Hello" will still work as it always has.

16 December 2012

Giacom updated:

  • You can now create your own solar arrays! Order the solar pack crate and you'll receive 21 solar assemblies, 1 electronic which you can put into an assembly to make it a solar tracker and finally the solar computer circuit board. You will get more detailed instructions in the crate, on a piece of paper. Engineering will also start with this crate to help repair destroyed solar arrays.

Petethegoat updated:

  • Added a new option to the key authorisation devices. It removes the maintenance access requirement from all doors. It's irreversible, so only use it in an emergency!

15 December 2012

Ikarrus updated:

  • Swapped the locations of the Library and Chapel. Thanks to killerz104 for the remap.
  • Partial remap of atmos. Monitoring and Refill stations are now the same room.
  • Toxins Mixing should be working properly again.

12 December 2012

Ikarrus updated:

  • Robotics is now a full Science department.
  • Completely remapped Research Division, Robotics, Medbay, and the Library.
  • Partially remapped Cargo Bay, Mining Dock, Engineering, and Atmospherics.
  • Changed the access of the HoS and HoP. For a list, refer to their respective wiki pages.

Errorage updated:

  • Miners now have to go through cargo to reach the Mining Dock.

Petethegoat updated:

  • The Detective's revolver no longer cares about how cool you look. It now spawns in his locker.
  • Added new inhands for most energy weapons, by Flashkirby!

Giacom updated:

  • Disintegrate (EI NATH) will leave behind the brain of the victim. Possible productive uses include: trophies, looking awesome as you gib someone and only their brain remains, people to talk to when you get an MMI, pocket brains, a way to get back into the game if the wizard didn't grab your brain and stuffed it into his bag.

07 December 2012

Giacom updated:

  • The detective's scanner was upgraded, it can now scan for reagents in items and living beings. Potential uses include, scanning dead bodies for leftover poison or scanning items to see if they have been spiked.
  • You can now attach photos to newscaster news feeds and wanted posters.
  • You can now emag buttons to remove access from them.
  • The CentComm. Report has been changed so it no longer names potential antagonists. It will just announce the potential round type instead.

05 December 2012

Cheridan updated:

  • Agent cards have been upgraded with microscanners, allowing operatives in the field to copy access levels off of other ID cards.

Ikarrus updated:

  • The Chief Medical Officer, Research Director, Chief Engineer, and Lawyers now have basic Brig access (corridor only)
  • Merged Mining and Cargo radio channels into the Supply Radio. To use the supply channel, use :u
  • Mining Dock remapped to be more compact and closer to cargo.

Giacom updated:

  • The wizard's fireball spell is once again dumbfire. It will fire in the direction of the wizard instead of having to choose from a list of targets and then home in on them.

02 December 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Added a new artefact called the "Staff of Animation". You can get it in the Wizard's Spellbook. It will animate objects and items, but not machines, to fight for you. The animated objects will not attack the bearer of the staff which animates them, meaning if you lose your staff, or if it gets stolen, your minions will turn on you.

30 November 2012

Petethegoat updated:

  • Janitor has recieved a slightly upgrade mop bucket. The old one is still there too.

Ikarrus updated:

  • Swapped the locations of the Vault and Tech Storage.
  • Cargo Techs, Miners, and Roboticists no longer start with gloves. They are still available from their lockers.

28 November 2012

Kor updated:

  • Slimes have replaced roros (finally)! Right now they are functionally identical, but massive expansion of slimes and xenobio is planned. Sprites are by Cheridan.

25 November 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Added new very high level symptoms which are only obtainable in the virus crate. Virus crate will also come with mutagen.

Petethegoat updated:

  • Removed clown planet! It'll return shortly in away mission form.

Ikarrus updated:

  • Added Gateway access. Only the RD, HoP, and Captain start with this.
  • New access levels in the brig:
    -Brig access now opens the front doors of the brig, as well as other lower-risk security areas.
    -Security access allows you into the break room and equipment lockers.
    -Holding Cells allows you to use brig timers and lets you in the Prison Wing.
    -The Detective no longer has Security Equipment access.
  • Significantly increased max cloneloss penalty for fresh clones to 40%.

23 November 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Simplified detective stuff. The high-res scanner is gone and instead the detective's normal scanner will instantly report all fingerprints, dna and cloth fibers in full. This was needed because the system took too long to work with and disencouraged detectives. Not only that, it made detectives less of a threat for antagonists and made possible scenerios, such as framing someone by changing fingerprints with someone else, impratical. To replace the computer, the detective will have a full medical computer with access to it. Not only that, but his useless filing cabinet will be replaced with an empty one for serious investigators. Along with this, are fingerprint cards and built-in PDA scanning, as all of security had access to it which was really the detective's thing. The new scanner will also log every finding and you can print them out as a report by clicking the scanner while it is in your active hand.
  • You can toggle the pressure of your sprayer by clicking on it while it is in your active hand. With pressure, the sprayer will spray 10 units on the floor, otherwise it sprays 5. You'll need to turn pressure on to spray water on the floor and make it slippery.
  • AIs in intellicards can no longer move their camera. This will limit them in ability but without making creating and carding an AI to have as a personel door opener impossible.
  • Telecommunication Busses can now be set to change the frequency of a signal. (Allowing you to say.. set the command channel to broadcast to the common channel).
  • Telecommunication was changed to be more effecient. Because of this, Relays don't need a broadcaster or a receiver and you can setup a relay on it's own. You can still disable sending and or receiving from the relay's interface.

Zelacks updated:

  • Plant Analysers now work on seed bags.

21 November 2012

Petethegoat updated:

  • The nuke shuttle can now travel at will, and to any location. When travelling from syndicate space to the station, (and vice versa), it will travel through hyperspace.

Carn updated:

  • Changed savefile structure. There's a bunch of unused files left lying around so old savefiles will be purged. Sorry for the inconvenience. Many preferences have been moved to the Preferences verb tab. Everything in that tab is persistent between rounds (it updates your savefile, so even DCing won't reset them). Enjoy x

Phol updated:

  • Added female sprites for most mutant races.

Cheridan updated:

  • SSU manufacturers have issued a product recall! It seems old models shipped with faulty wiring, causing them to short-circuit.

20 November 2012

Kor updated:

  • Added Exile Implants to the Gateway room. Someone implanted with an Exile Implant will be able to enter the away mission, but unable to return from it. Not only can they be used for getting rid of dangerous criminals, but revs/stationheads count as dead while on the away mission, and traitor/changeling/wizard assassination targets count as dead if they're on the away mission at round end, allowing for those objectives to be completed peacefully.
  • Added medical hardsuits, sprited by Majorsephiroth. Two of them spawn in EVA. Their most unique/medical oriented feature is being able to hold a medkit in the suit storage slot, allowing you to easily access medicine while keeping your hands free.

  • Malf AIs can only shunt to APCs from their core. Meaning their core needs to be alive before they can shunt to another APC. Malf AIs can start a takeover inside an APC now.
  • When taking damage, the next sequence of the overlay will show for a bit before reverting to the overlay you should have. This allows you to know you are taking damage without having to check the text screen.

18 November 2012

Petethegoat updated:

  • Ported over BS12 style cameras. They now take a photo of a 3x3 area!
  • Catatonic people (those that have ghosted while alive) now count as dead for assasinate objectives.

17 November 2012

Donkie updated:

  • You can now deconstruct and construct Air Alarms and Fire Alarms. Read wiki on howto.

Giacom updated:

  • Medical Cyborgs no longer lose the reagents in their hypospray when switching modes.
  • Spaceacillin will now help stop the spread of diseases.
  • You can once again make floors slippery by spraying water. This was done by increasing the amount the sprayer uses, which is from 5 to 10. You can also empty your sprayer's contents onto the floor with a verb in the Object tab.

16 November 2012

Kor updated:

  • Fixed the syndicate teleporter door, making teleport assaults possible. It will once again open when you open the outter door.

15 November 2012

Giacom updated:

  • You can now name your advance diseases! You can't name already known diseases though.
  • Chemical implants can now hold 50 units instead of 10 units.

13 November 2012

Giacom updated:

  • More work to advance diseases. Please report any bugs to the bug tracker, I have tried everything that I can on my own but I'll need lots of people playing to fix the more minor bugs. You can find a guide to making your own diseases here: LINK!
  • Reduced the cost to use Hive Absorb from 40 to 20. This is to help encourage people to use this power more and to use team work.
  • New symptom added! See if you can find it.
  • You can now remove symptoms from a disease using synaptizine.
  • Kor: You can once again debrain changelings. They won't make anyone half-lings though, and you won't be able to tell if the body of a debrained changeling is a changeling by putting a player brain in there.

Nodrak updated:

  • Wizards can no longer cast spells when muzzled. It iss now actually possible to capture a live wizard without constantly injecting them with chloral.
  • You can no longer take bags of holding or mechs to the clown planet.

11 November 2012

Carn updated:

  • Admin-ranks changes
    Lots of changes. This is just a brief summary of the most recent changes; still working on proper documentation.
    All admins have access to view-vars, player-panel(for individual mobs), game panel and secrets panel. Most of the things on those pages have their own rights requirements. For instance, you can only use event orientated secrets in the secret panel if you have FUN rights. Debug secrets if you have DEBUG rights. etc.
    Spawn xeno and toggle gravity procs were moved into the secrets panel (fun).
    This may help with understanding which flags do what. Unfortuanately it's still somewhat vague.
    If you have any problems, feel free to PM me at irc.rizon.net #coderbus. I go by the username carn or carnie.

11 November 2012

Kor updated:

  • New cyborg upgrade available for production that requires illegal and combat tech
  • Summon Guns has a new gun type created by Ausops. It also lets the user know when its been cast now to prevent people trying to buy it multiple times
  • Grilles are no longer immortal in regards to solid projectiles, you can now shoot out windows.

09 November 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Cyborgs can now ping and beep! (Say "*beep" and "*ping") Thanks to Rahlzel for the proposal.
  • HULKS WILL NOW TALK IN ALL CAPS AND WILL RANDOMLY SAY HULK THINGS. Thanks to Brotemis for the proposal.
  • Sorry for the inconveniences with advance diseases. They are working much better now!
  • An improved APC sprite by TankNut!

05 November 2012

Giacom updated:

  • AIs can now tweak with a bot's setting like a human who unlocked the bot.

05 November 2012

Errorage updated:

  • Being in an area with extremely low pressure will now deal some damage, if you're not protected.
  • Space suits and the captain's armor now protect against pressure damage
  • Slightly lowered all environment damage intakes (temperature, oxygen deprevation) to make up for low pressure damage.
  • Pressure protection finally works properly. Items that protect from pressure (firesuits, space suits, fire helmets, ...) will now properly protect. The pressure damage indicator will update properly based on the pressure effects on you. Black (low) and red (high) mean you are taking damage.
  • Slightly slowed down the speed at which your body temperature changes if you are in a very hot or very cold area. The speed at which you recover from an abnormal body temperature remains the same.

03 November 2012

TankNut updated:

  • New APC sprite.
  • New Wraith sprite and jaunting animation.

03 November 2012

WJohnston updated:

  • New Ablative Armor sprite.

03 November 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Airborne diseases will not spread through walls now.
  • Reduced queen healing rate to 5. The maximum health will be enough.
  • Aliens can now clear hatched eggs by clicking on them.

02 November 2012

Errorage updated:

  • You can once again travel to the station, derelict, satellite and mining z-levels through space. You will also never loop into the same level on transition - So if you are exiting the derelict z-level, you will enter one of the other z-levels.

01 November 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Aliens now take x2 as much damage from fire based weaponary, instead of x1.5.
  • Doors are now weaker than walls; so normal weapons can destroy them much more easily.

31 October 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Advance evolving diseases! Virology can now create, mutate and mix advance diseases together. I replaced the two bottles of blood in Virology with the advance disease. I'll write a wiki article soon enough. Here's a tip: Putting mutagen or virus food (a mixture of milk, water and oxygen) in blood with an existing disease will mutate it to gain symptoms. It can potentially lose old symptoms in the process, so keep backups!

28 October 2012

Errorage updated:

  • You can now set your character's age up to 85. This used to be 45.

27 October 2012

Petethegoat updated:

25 October 2012

Flashkirby99 updated:

  • Added 18 new hairstyles!

24 October 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Throwing eggs will result in the reagents of the egg reacting to the target. (Which can be a turf, object or mob) This creates possibilities like chloral eggs, lube eggs, and many more.
  • Aliens can now acid walls and floors! Not R-Walls though.
  • Facehugger throw range reduced to 5, so aim at humans that are 2 tiles apart from the edge of your screen.
  • Making eggs is a little more expensive but secreting resin is cheaper. (Both cost 75 now)
  • Aliens no longer have a random duration of stunning humans, it's a constant value now of the lower based value.
  • Acid is less random and will be more reliable. Don't bother aciding stuff more than once, as it will waste plasma.
  • You can now target non-dense items (such as facehuggers) with a gun.
  • You can now shoot canisters, computers and windoors to break them.

18 October 2012

Giacom updated:

  • As an AI, you can type in the "track with camera" command and get a list of names to show up there. This also works with "list camera" verb. Remember to use space to auto-fill.
  • Welding goggles have been added. They are like welding helmets but they are for the glasses equipment slot. Science and the assembly line are given a pair.
  • Thanks to WJohnston for the welding goggle icons.
  • Small change to the Assembly Line. Instead of six normal flashes, the Assembly Line will instead have two normal flashes and eight synthetic flashes. Synthetic flashes only work once but are designed to be used in construction of Cyborgs.
  • Nar-Sie put on a few pounds. Thanks HornyGranny.

16 October 2012

Giacom updated:

  • New changeling powers!
  • Hive Channel/Hive Absorb. Allows you to share your DNA with other changelings, very expensive chemical wise to absorb (download), not so much to channel (upload)! You cannot achieve your objective by sharing DNA.
  • Mimic Voice! You can form your voice of a name you enter. You won't look like them but when you talk, people will hear the name of who you selected. While you're mimicing, you can't regenerate chemicals.
  • Extract DNA! A power that allows you to silently sting someone and take their DNA! Meaning you do not have to absorb someone to become them. Extracting their DNA doesn't count towards completing your objectives.
  • You can now get flares from red emergency toolboxes. Has a 50% chance of a flash-light or a flare spawning.
  • Flare icon by Ausops!
  • Thanks to RavingManiac (Smoke Carter), Roros now lay eggs which can grow into baby roros or be used for cooking recipes. Scientists will need to expose the egg to plasma for it to hatch; while it is orange (grown).
  • A new icon for the map spawned x-ray cameras. Icon by Krutchen.

13 October 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Facehuggers have a new animation, thanks to Sly.
  • Firelocks, glass-less airlocks and walls will stop heat.
  • Fires are now more deadly, especially the flames.
  • Fires will now break windows.

10 October 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Larva grow a little bit faster when on weeds or when breathing in plasma.

8 October 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Thanks to Skasi. Atmospherics has been changed to be made simpler and spawn with the new atmos features, such as the heaters.
  • Radio headsets can only be heard by people wearing them on their ear slot. This will let us do more fun stuff with headsets, such as a traitor encryption key which can listen to all the channels, but not talk in them.

Kor updated:

  • A pen no longer spawns in your pocket. Instead, each PDA will spawn with a pen already in it.

5 October 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Aliens can now be harmed by fire. They now also take double fire damage, meaning flame based weaponry is very effective.
  • Buffed alien facehuggers and eggs. Facehuggers don't go idle anymore, and they attach to anyone who walks past them. Eggs do the same; fully grown eggs will open to potential hosts. If you are still in the range of them, the facehugger inside will leap out and hug you. Removed "activate facehuggers", since it's useless now. Emote "roar" if you want to roar now.
  • There can be only one living queen at a time, if the queen dies then a drone can take her place as a princess.
  • Buffed queen regeneration a bit, so it's not the same as her underlings. It's also more important because there can only be one queen at a time.
  • Aliens don't slip in space anymore.
  • Hulks don't paralyze aliens anymore, they instead slow them down to a slow crawl. It is very effective for punching aliens out of weeds, so it can't regenerate it's health.
  • New egg opening and opened egg icons by WJohnston.

Aranclanos updated:

  • A buncha crud nobody cares about lol Added a light to the airlock wiring interface to show the status of the timing.
  • You can't fill sprays without being next to the dispenser.
  • Simple animals no longer freeze to death in places with normal temperature.
  • Mechs no longer freeze on the spot when they are using the Energy Relay on powerless areas.
  • Improvements to showers, they now clean gear on beltslot, back, ears and eyes. Showers only clean visible gear.
  • Replica pods works again! But you can't make potato people without a key or clone people who ghosted alive (Catatonic).
  • Engiborgs can deconstruct airlocks with their RCDs once again.
  • You can construct airlocks while standing on another airlock with RCDs.

  • Pipe dispensers can produce the readded pieces.
  • New graphics for all of the above - courtesy by Ausops.

30 September 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Airlocks now use the Environmental power channel, since they are airlocks after-all. Meaning, when power is low the airlocks will still work until the environmental channel on the APC is turned off. This applies to all the door control buttons too. Pipe meters now use the environmental power channel. If you have any comments have this change, please let me know in the feedback section of the forums.

26 September 2012

Carnwennan updated:

  • Added new hotkeys. Type hotkeys-help for details or see the drop-down help menu at the top of the game window.

Aranclanos updated:

  • Mechs are once again spaceproof!
  • The YouTool machine is now all access
  • Cutting tower caps in hand no longer deletes the wood, and planks now auto stack

25 September 2012

Donkie updated:

  • Reworked the Piano, now really optimized and new interface!

24 September 2012

Petethegoat updated:

  • Hopefully fixed the stop midis button. It should now stop any midis that are currently playing.

23 September 2012

Petethegoat updated:

  • Fixed an exploit which would allow the janitor to magically mop floors.
  • Added lipstick~ It's not available on station, as Nanotrasen has deemed it contraband.
  • If you encounter any issues with computers, notify an admin, or ask for assistance on #coderbus, on irc.rizon.net.

Donkie updated:

  • Updated the Package Tagger with new interface!
  • You can now dispense, remove and retag sort junctions properly!

17 September 2012

Cheridan updated:

  • Metroids have been replaced with Rorobeasts. Roros are strange latex-based lifeforms that hate light, fun, and gloves.

17 September 2012

Carn updated:

  • F5 is now a hotkey for adminghosting. F8 toggles ghost-like invisibility for admins.
  • Catatonia makes you fall down. Admins appear braindead when admin-ghosting.
  • "Set-observe"/"Set-play" renamed and merged into "Aghost".
  • "Lay down/Get up" renamed to "Rest"
  • Closets can't be sold on the supply shuttle anymore
  • Fixed all dat light

13 September 2012

Carn updated:

  • New Hotkeys (Trial period). Details can be found in the help menu or via the hotkeys-help verb. It's all client-side. It shouldn't intefere with regular controls (except ctrl+A, ctrl+S, ctrl+D and ctrl+W).

10 September 2012

Giacom updated:

  • AIs can double click on mobs to instantly start tracking them.

Important note for server hosts!

Important note for server hosts!:

  • The file /code/defines/hub.dm was moved into /code/hub.dm. To get your server back on the hub, open /code/hub.dm and set the hub variables again. Sorry for the inconvenience.

8 September 2012

Carn updated:

  • Added an additional check to stop changelings sharing powers/becomming un-absorbable/etc by absorbing eachother and then rejuvinating from death.
  • Cloaked Aliens are now slightly easier to see, so they should avoid strongly lit areas when possible. They can still lay down to become even stealthier though. Let me know what you think, it's only a minor sprite change.

6 September 2012

Cheridan updated:

  • -Changes flour from an item to a container-held reagent. All recipes have been updated to use 5 units of reagent flour for every item required previously. This has a few advantages: The 16(!) sacks of flour previously in the kitchen cabinet have been condensed to an equivalent 3 sacks. Beer is now brewable with universal enzyme, and converting lots of wheat into flour should be less tedious. Also, flour grenades, etc. Because of this, flour is now obtained from the all-in-one blender rather than the processor, and spaghetti noodles are made with 5 units of flour in the microwave.

6 September 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Removed cameras from bots (NOT BORGS). They weren't working well with freelook and I felt that since they weren't used at all, they wouldn't be missed.

3 September 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Cameras has changed quite a bit. They are no longer created from grenade canisters, instead you make them from an autolathe. The construction and deconstruction for them has also changed, so look it up or experiment it with yourself to see how to setup the cameras now. Cameras also get wires, like airlocks and APCs. There's two duds, a focus wire, a power wire, an alarm wire and a light wire. Protip: You can see which one is the alarm wire by pulsing it.
  • Added a red phone and placed it in the Cyborg Station. Sprite by Pewtershmitz! You'll also find an AI restorer there, replacing the computer frame.
  • Cameras aren't all X-ray anymore. The AI won't be able to see what room you are in if there's no normal camera inside that room or if there's no X-ray camera nearby..
  • Cameras get upgrades! Currently there's X-ray, EMP-Proof and Motion. You'll find the EMP-Proof and Motion cameras in the normal places (Singularity Pen & EVA), the new X-ray cameras can be found in the Dormitory and Bathrooms, plus some extra ones to invade your privacy. See if you can smash them all.
  • Alien Larva can bite simple animals (see: Ian, Runtime, Mice) to kill them and gain a small amount of growing points.
  • Space travel was tweaked to be more random when changing Z levels. This will stop people and items from being stuck in an infinite loop, as they will eventually hit something to make them stop.

31 August 2012

Agouri updated:

  • Overhauled newscasters. No visual additions but the thing is much more robust and everything works as intended. Wanted issues are fixed. Admins, check out Access News Network under Fun.

30 August 2012

Giacom updated:

  • You can now create an EMP Pulse. Like an explosion, it is the mixing of two reagents that trigger this to happen. I will tell you the first required reagent. Uranium. Have fun!
  • I have made most chemicals need 3-5 or more chemicals in order to react to a turf. For instance, you need at least 5 units of thermite splashed on a wall for it to burn down."
  • The EMP kit, that you can buy through the uplink, has two more grenades in them now. Making the box full of EMP grenades!
  • Changed the EMP grenade's range to be much bigger.

29 August 2012

Nodrak updated:

  • Mice now work with the admin player panel. Admins can now turn players into mice with the 'Animalize' button in the player panel!
  • Space bear AI no longer runs when a player is controlling it. Admins can now turn players into space bears with the 'Animalize' button in the player panel!
  • The holodeck beach program once again has a beach.
  • The nuke op shuttle floor was pressure-washed a few days ago. We have since re-painted it with nanotrasen blood. Sorry for any confusion.

28 August 2012

Giacom updated:

  • You can now toggle the bolt light of airlocks. An extra wire, that controls the airlock's bolt light, has been added.
  • Aliens can now tell who is and who isn't infected. They get a special facehugger icon that appears over mobs that have been impregnated.
  • Cameras have temporary X-Ray for the time being.

August 26, 2012

Nodrak updated:

  • Admins now have an 'Animalize' button on a mob's player panel. This button allows admins to turn players into simple animals.
    There are a few exceptions. Mice, Parrots, Bears and Space Worms all have issues that, until fixed, prevent me from allowing players those transformations.

August 25, 2012

Carnwennan updated:

  • New lighting. It should look and feel the same as the old lighting whilst being less taxing on the server. Space has a minimum brightness (IC starlight) and areas that do not use dynamic lighting default to a lighting level of 4, so they aren't dark, but they aren't superbright. Replacing turfs should preserve dynamic lighting. Singulo/bombs should cause a lot less lighting-related lag. There are some minor known issues, see the commit log for details.
  • Admins can now access most controller datums with the "Debug Controller" verb. Time to break all the things!
  • Supply shuttle now uses a controller datum. This means admins can see/edit supply orders etc.
  • Changeling fakedeath can be initiated after death again. Next time you want something reverted, just ask rather than being obnoxious.

Giacom updated:

  • AIs can now look around like a ghost with the exception that they cannot see what cameras cannot see. Meaning if you're in maintenance, and there's no cameras near you, the AI will not know what you are doing. This also means there's no X-Ray vision cameras anymore.
  • AIs can add links to Telecommunication Machines. Added some cameras for areas that should have it but instead relied on cameras nearby for vision.
  • Choking has been changed. You have to stand still while lethally choking someone. It takes time to get into that lethal choke. When you are lethaling choking someone, they are still concious until the lack of oxygen knocks them out.

trubble_bass updated:

  • Nerfed the Neurotoxin drink, it is now less effective than a stunbaton. But more effective than a Beepsky Smash.
  • Updated descriptions on various cocktails to be more accurate or more relevant to the drink itself.

August 24, 2012

Sieve updated:

  • Floorbots now actually pull up tiles when emagged
  • All helper bots (excluding MULEs) have an access panel and maint panel, access being for behavior and maint for internal work
  • To open the maint panel, the access panel needs to be unlocked, then you use a screwdriver. There you can emag/repair it to your heart's content. (Emagging the access panel will also unlock it permanently)
  • Helper bots are now repaired by using a welder when their maint panel is open

August 23, 2012

Nodrak updated:

  • In-hand sprites once again update correctly when equipping items.

August 16, 2012

Errorage updated:

  • Changes were made to how heating and cooling of humans works.
  • You must wear both a space suit and space helmet to be protected from space! Likewise you must wear a firesuit and a fire helmet to be protected from fire! Fire helmets are red and white hardhats, found in all fire closets.
  • Fire suits now only protect from heat and space suits only protect from cold, so make your choice count.

August 14, 2012

Sieve updated:

  • DNA modifiers can be used if there is no occupant, primarily to handle the buffer.
  • Ion Rifles are only effected by max severity EMPs, so AOE from its own shot won't effect it
  • Pepper Spray fits on Sec belts again

August 11, 2012

Sieve updated:

  • Turrets now properly fire at simple_animals.
  • Borgs, AIs, and brains/MMIs can be sacrificed by cultists.
  • Grenades now automatically set throw on again.

August 6, 2012

Dingus updated:

  • Library has been redesigned. It's a whole lot more classy now.
  • Significant changes to Medbay. CMO's office is more centralized, genetics has a new exit into cryogenics, and a new break room has been installed

August 4, 2012

Icarus updated:

  • Changes to Med-Sci south and surrounding maintenance areas. Virology is more isolated and Science gets a new Misc. Research Lab.
  • Atmos techs get construction access now to do their little projects in.
  • Transformation Stings now work on living humans.

August 2, 2012

Errorage updated:

  • Gas masks now protect you from reagent smoke clouds
  • Changed the 'black overlay' you get when paralyzed, blind or in critical condition to include a small circle around you.
  • Dramatically lowered the amount of damage you get per breath while in critical condition. Critical condition now lasts for about 5 minutes if nothing is causing you any additional harm. This in combination with the new black image overlay is an attempt at making doctors more willing to help.

Icarus updated:

  • Borgs now have flashlights to allow them to see in lightless areas
  • Changes to Medbay: The sleeper and storage rooms have been swapped around. Hopefully this leads to more healing and less looting.

August 1, 2012

Sieve updated:

  • Borgs can now have an encryption key installed into their internal radios. Simply ID, open the panel, and use the key to insert it (Screwdriver to remove)
  • Due to that as well, borgs have a 'Toggle Broadcast Mode' button for their radios, which changes the broadcast type between station-bounced (Non-reliant on TComms), and subspace (Required for department channels)
  • Also changed the binary chat for consistency, now for the prefix is ':b' for everyone, not just one for humans and one for borgs/AIs/pAIs
  • Based on feedback, Nuke Op pinpointers now automagically change between shuttle and disk mode when the nuke is armed or disarmed.

01-August-2012

Carn updated:

  • Please update your BYOND clients! Ideally everybody should be running the latest version of byond (v496). People who fail to update to at least version 494 within a month's time may find themself unable to connect. Currently our code has no restrictions at all, which is rather bad. By getting the user-base to keep their clients up-to-date we can make use of newer BYOND features reliably.

Giacom updated:

  • I've made some adjustments to the Fireball spell. I've changed it to shoot in the player's facing direction instead of you having to pick a name from a list. It will explode upon contact of a person, if it hits an obstacle or if it shoots for too long. To make up for the fireball not being able to go diagonal I've shortened the cooldown to 10 seconds. It still can hurt you badly and knock you down if you shoot it at a wall. Lastly, it now lights up so it'll show up in dark rooms easily.

31 July 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Removed passive throwing. You need at least an aggressive hold of the mob before you can throw them.
  • New map changes by Ikarrus. AI Upload Foyer is now Secure Tech Access, and the outer door only requires Bridge access. Attached to it are two new rooms: The messaging server room and the communications relay. The comms relay room runs off its own SMES unit like the AI, so it won't be affected by powersinks

29 July 2012

Giacom updated:

  • All radios now only work in their Z level. This means that the CommSat has a few more additions to work with this change. There is now a new Telecomms Machine called the Relay which allows information to travel across Z levels. It it then linked to a new machine called the Hub, which will receive information from the Relays and send it to the buses. Because every Z level needs these relays, which are linked up with Receivers/Broadcasters, every Z level will get one. There is one in the station, in the RD's office, one in Telecomms as always, one in the Ruskie station which is turned off and hidden from the HUB's linked list. The last one is in Mining but the location for it has not been decided yet.
  • PDAs now need to be in a Z level with a functioning Relay/Comms Network in order to send messages. It will also send uncompressed (scrambled) messages like you would with the ordinary voice messages.
  • Added some of WJohnston's sprites. Added a new mining borg sprite, Added a new high tech security airlock, Added the new telecomm sprites for Relays. Hubs were given old Bus sprites.

29 July 2012

Errorage updated:

  • You can now use crayons to color eggs
  • Mice have invaded the station!

26 July 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Added a new mushroom for Hydroponics, the Reishi Mushroom! It is obtained like any other mushroom and it has relaxing properties.

July 25, 2012: The day of updates!

Nodrak updated:

  • Attacking mobs with items will now give new messages. Instead of "Monkeyman was attacked in the head with a wrench by Nodrak." it will read "Monkeyman was bashed in the head with a wrench by Nodrak." Diffrent items have diffrent verbs and some have multiple verbs.
  • Cultists can now read what words a rune was made with by examining the rune. Due to an error in the code, this was not possible before.
  • Clowns no longer have practice lasers or staves of change blow up in their face due to clumsyness.
  • Engineering cyborgs can now actually repair a cut AI wire in APCs.
  • I've removed a ton of pointless checks and redundant loops from metroid's which have been causing lag due to how often they get called. If metroids are behaving strangly ping me in #coderbus

Sieve updated:

  • Made a 'default' save slot (D), and whenever you connect it automatically selects the default slot to load from, but manually selecting a different slot will allow you to play on that one before it returns to default.
  • Added the ability to name your save slots with the '*'. Names can be up to 16 characters and contain letters, numbers, and basic symbols
  • The preview icon on the preference screen now takes into account any job you have set on high, and dresses up the icon accordingly. If assistant is set to 'yes', or AI/Cyborg are on high it will put the icon in a grey suit (So you can still customize).
  • Nuke Ops get a new pinpointer, changing modes with the verb will switch between pointing to the disk, and pointing to the shuttle. Also provides a notification when you leave the station z-level
  • Reworked how MMI Life() was done, now they will never lose consciousness, and many less things affect them now(Like deafening/blindness from explosions). However, they are vulnerable to EMPs, but all damage is temporary.
  • Clowns will no longer be killed trying to use holo eswords
  • Major tweaking to try and optimize many operations on the game's backend. Hopefully, this will reduce a large amount of lag by steamlining CPU-intensive operations, but at the same time there was so much changed that there is no real way for a small group to test everything. If anyone spots a bug involving being unable to 'find' mobs, characters, whatever, then put it on the issue tracker or at the very least let #coderbus know. We can't fix shit unless we know about it.

Icarus updated:

  • Players not buckled in when the emergency shuttle/pod starts moving get will get knocked down.
  • Added a YouTool vending machine to primary tool storage.

24 July 2012

Errorage updated:

  • Added powercells into vending machines in engineering
  • Gave two beartraps to the janitor for pest control purposes................

22 July 2012

Errorage updated:

  • Mech toys can now be redeemed at the quartermaster's for a great reward! If you collect the full set of 11 toys you should put them in a crate and send them to centcom via the supply shuttle.
  • Supply shuttle arrival time reduced to 2 minutes
  • Hopefully fixed the toy haul problem which made it possible to get a million toys from arcade machines.

Giacom updated:

  • You can now make newlines with your PDA notes.
  • You can now research and build the Light Replacer.
  • You can now store donuts in the donut box. The next donut you pull out will be the last one you put in.
  • APCs will auto-turn on if there is enough power in the grid, even if the powercell is below 30%. The APC needs to be charged for a long enough time before it starts turning equipment on, to avoid spazzing out. If you have any problems with it, such as equipment turning off and on repeatedly then please make an issue report with a screenshot of the APC.

18 July 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Added the Light Replacer. This is a device that can auto replace lights that are broken, missing or burnt. Currently it is found in the Janitor's closet and Janitor Borgs can equip it. You can refill it with glass, or if you're a Cyborg, just recharge. It is emaggable and will replace lights with rigged lights. The light's explosion was nerfed to help balance it and it is very noticable when you are holding an emagged Light Replacer.
  • The Janitor's equipment locator, on their PDA, will now tell you the direction of the equipment.

17 July 2012

Icarus updated:

  • Added department satchels
  • Added Captain's Backpack and Satchel
  • Added three new hairstyles by Sly: Gelled, Flat Top, and Pigtails. Hair list has also been sorted by grouping similar styles.

Giacom updated:

  • Added a new wire for Cyborgs. See if you can figure out what it does.
  • You can now fill any container with a sink. You can change the amount to fill, from sinks, by setting your container's transfer amount.

14 July 2012

Carn updated:

  • All living mobs can now ghost whenever they want. Essentially making the suicide verb obsolete. If you ghost whilst still alive however, you may not re-enter your body for the rest of the round.
  • Humans can no longer suicide whilst restrained (this is purely to prevent meta whilst I finish up the new FUN suicides)
  • Fixed dem evidence bags. Fixed metroids getting at it like rabbits. Fixed stuff like welding masks not hiding your face. Bunch of other things

Willox and Messycakes updated:

  • pAI Emoticons! Allows each pAI to set their screen to display an array of faces! Click on 'Screen Display' in the pAI OS for a list.

Saturday July 14th 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Added Russian Revolvers. This is a special Revolver that can only hold a single bullet randomly in it's chamber. This will allow you to play Russian Roulette with your fellow crew members! You can use it like a normal gun but you will need to cycle through the chamber slots until you hit the bullet. Only admin spawnable.

Friday July 13th 2012

Carn updated:

  • Added FLOORLENGTH HAIR. YEESSSSSSSS!!!! :3 If you like it say thanks to Ausops for fixing it up. Credits to Powerfulstation for the original sprite.

Giacom updated:

  • Save Slots! You can now have separate save slots for different character setups, with a customizable maximum of 3 slots per account. If you are wondering, you will not lose your old saved setup.
  • The character setup screen was updated to look nicer and to fit on the screen.

Icarus updated:

  • Added new Dwarf and Very Long hairstyles. Dwarf hair and beard by SuperCrayon.

Thursday July 12th 2012

Giacom updated:

  • pAI gets a better PDA that can actually receive messages from people. They can also instantly reply like everybody else now and they can toggle their receiver/signaller/ringer.
  • You can show the AI the notes on your PDA by holding it up to a camera. When you show up a paper/pda to the camera the AI can now click on your name to go to you, if you're near a camera. People who are Unknown will not have a link; which would've allowed the AI to track them.
  • Made the" common server" and the "preset right receiver" listen for frequencies 144.1 to 148.9. This will allow people to use different frequencies to talk to eachother without bothering the common channel. It will also allow Revs and Cultists to work with each other; everything is still logged though so it still has risks.
  • Increased the maximum frequency limit for handheld radios and intercoms. It will give you the option to just use station bounced radios on a higher frequency so that anyone with a headset can't simply tune in.
  • Created an All-In-One Grinder that is suppose to replace the blender, juicer and reagent grinder all together. Meaning any department that has a juicer, blender and grinder will instead get this. It will help people be more independent from Chemistry by recycling foods and plants.

Wednesday July 11th 2012

Nodrak, Cheridan and Icarus updated:

  • Added a couple of Emergency Shield Projectors to Engineering secure storage.

    Note: Credit goes to Barhardar for the original code and functionality.

    These devices can be used to quickly create an air-tight seal across a hull breach until repairs can been made.

    Wrench them in place and activate them near a hull breach. The shield should extend to all space tiles in range.

    They can be (un)locked by engineering IDs and can also be emagged and otherwise malfunction. As they can not be constructed, you can repair damage and malfunctions by opening the panel with a screwdriver and replacing the wires with a cable coil

Giacom updated:

  • Chemistry update: Pills can now be ground up in reagent grinders. You can now put custom amounts of reagent into things using chemmasters. Can now load pill-bottles into chemmasters for mass pill-production.

Carn updated:

  • Clicks on inventory slots with items in now act like a click on the thing in that slot. So clicking smaller things (like pens) is easier and you can remove clothing that borks/goes invisible. Please continure to report those kinds of bug though please. Thanks x
  • Can no longer interact with your inventory with a mech.

Errorage updated:

  • You can now only adminhelp once every 2 minutes so please provide all necesary information in one adminhelp instead of 5! Also reply to admins in PM-s and not additional adminhelps.

Saturday July 7th, 2012

Icarus updated:

  • A basketball simulation is now available at the holodeck. Credit to Sly and Ausops for the sprites.

Friday July 6th, 2012

Giacom updated:

  • Bottles can now be broken over people's heads! To do this, you must have the harm intent on and you must be targeting the person's head. This change affects alcoholic bottles only. It does not change pill bottles or chemistry bottles. Helmets help protect you from damage and the regents of the bottles will splash over the victim.
  • AI's now have access to a PDA. Note: It is not PDA-bomb-able
  • Health analyzers and medical PDAs now give a time of death when used on corpses.

Thursday July 5th, 2012

Carn updated:

  • Alien larva now chestburst even after their host has died.

Thursday, June 28th

Nodrak updated:

  • I'm currently working on cleaning up and moving around a large portion of the mob code. These changes do not directly affect players; HOWEVER, bugs, oversights or simple mistakes may cause problems for players. While I have tested as much as I can, there may be some lingering bugs I have missed.

    This part of the mob code cleanup mainly focuses on damage variables and procs. So if you suspect something related to taking, dealing or examining damage is not working as intended please fill out an issue report here and be as detailed as possible. This includes what you were doing, steps to reproduce the problem, who you were doing it to, what you were using ect... Thank you.

Carn updated:

  • Alien hunters will now cloak when using the 'stalk' movement intent. Whilst cloaked they will use up their plasma reserves. They can however cloak as long as they like. Using the Lay-down verb will allow them to remain cloaked without depleting their plasma reserves, hence allowing them to lay ambushes for unsuspecting prey. Should a hunter attack anybody, or get knocked down in any way, they will become visible. Hopefully this allows for more strategic/stealthy gameplay from aliens. On the other hand, I may have totally screwed the balance so feedback/other-ideas are welcome.
  • Removed the invisibility verb from the alien hunter caste.

Wednesday, June 27th

Errorage updated:

  • Fixed the bug which prevented you from editing book's titles and authors with a pen. Also fixed the bug which prevented you from ordering a book by it's SS13ID.

  • Pizza boxes! Fully stackable, tagable (with pen), and everythingelse-able. Fantastic icons by supercrayon!
    Created with a sheet of cardboard.

Tuesday, June 26th

Errorage updated:

  • Changeling parasting now only weakens for 10 game ticks. It no longer silences your target.

Saturday, June 23rd

Donkie updated:

  • Reworked job randomizing system. Should be more fair.
  • List of players are now randomized before given antag, this means that declaring as fast as possible doesn't mean shit anymore!

Carn updated:

  • Putting a blindfold on a human with lightly damaged eyes will speed up the healing process. Similar with earmuffs.
  • More overlay bug fixes. Most of it to do with little robots and construction stuff. Bugs go here if you have 2 minutes http://nanotrasen.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=9077
  • Weakening is instant! That means if you stunbaton somebody they're gonna fall-down immediately.

Icarus updated:

  • Medical storage now requires Surgery access (Medical Doctors only)

Wednesday, June 20th

Nodrak updated:

  • AIs, Borgs are no longer able to be cultists or revolutionaries as their objectives completely contradict their laws. They can still be subverted of course.

  • Made Lasertag ED-209's and turrets much more useful, including making their emag function more fitting
  • Added Mesons to the EngiVend to make up for how many lockers were removed
  • New Item: Sheet Snatcher. Right now only borgs have them, but they can hold up to 500 sheets of minerals (Of any combination), and auto-stacks them to boot. Used just like the mining satchels, meaning minerborgs can actually deliver metal
  • Mech drills can mine sand, and the diamond gets a much larger volume
  • If a borg has the satchel in its modules (Doesn't have to be the active one), it will auto-magically pick up any ores it walks over.
  • Bumping an asteroid wall with a pickaxe/drill in your hand makes you auto-magically start drilling the wall, making mining much less tedious (humans and borgs)(Also, gustavg's idea)

Icarus updated:

  • New afro hairstyles. Big Afro by Intigracy.

Friday, June 15th

Carnwennan updated:

  • First update for update_icons stuffs:

    Fixed being unable to put belts & backpacks on other people
    nodamage (godmode) now prevents all organ damage. It does not stop healing however.
    Nerd stuff...

Thursday, June 14th

Carn updated:

  • FEAR NOT! You can now store a pen in your pda. (aka Best commit all commits)

Wednesday, June 13th

Carn updated:

  • Massive Mob-Icon Overhaul:
    A large amount of the mob code has been replaced. The systems replaced were causing immense performance issues so the following are very necessary optimisations.
    However, there is a downside: SS13 code is the equivilant of monkeys on typewriters. Despite weeks of constant coding/testing there -will- be things I've missed. The kinds of bugs I'm expecting are overlays not updating and/or in rare cases things not appearing in your hud. Most of these issues can be worked around simply by dropping the item and picking it back up. If all else fails ask an admin to regenerate your icons through view-vars.
    Please report any bugs to me on #coderbus IRC or make an issue on the tracker as a matter of urgency. I will fix them ASAP.
    Also a massive thankyou to Nodrak, Erro, Pete and Willox. :)
  • Massive rewrite of the overlays system (particularly for humans). Stuff is cached and only updates when necessary. In effect this means faster updates, less overheads/lag, and less reliance on the game-ticker.
  • Numerous bugfixes and tweaks for damage-procs and damage-overlays for humans. They should now be almost seamless, use very little overhead and update instantly.
  • TK grab can now be cancelled using the throw hotkey. (so now it toggles on/off like it used to).
  • Added verbs to the view-var drop-down list: "Regenerate Icons" will fix a mob's hud/overlays. "Set Mutantrace" will change a mob's mutantrace.
  • Damage icons were split up. They kinda look a bit crap so spriters feel free to replace them. Templates are provided in dam_human.dmi
  • More to come...

Cheridan updated:

  • -Added Lezowski's overalls to hydroponic supply closets. 50% chance per closet for them to replace the apron. -Removed some covers tags from things that made no sense to have them.

Monday, June 11th

Donkie updated:

  • Fixed being able to lock yourself in or out of a locker using the verb.

Xerux updated:

  • Added lightfixture creating.

Errorage updated:

  • You can now use the resist verb or UI button when welded or locked in a closet. Takes 2 minutes to get out tho (Same as getting out of handcuffs or unbuckling yourself)
  • Making single-pane windows will now make the window in the direction you're facing. If a window already exists in that direction it will make it 90 degrees to your left and so on.

Sunday, June 10th

Agouri updated:

  • Cyborgs and AIs can now use the newscaster. It was a mistake on my part, forgetting to finish that part of them.

Saturday, June 9th

Errorage updated:

  • You can now make restraints from cable. It takes 15 lengths of cable to make a pair of restraints, they are applied the same way as handcuffs and have the same effects. It however only takes 30s to remove them by using the resist verb or button. You can also remove them from someone by using wirecutters on the handcuffed person.
  • Added four new cable colors: pink, orange, cyan and white. Engineer belts spawn with yellow, red or orange cables while toolboxes and tool closets spawn with all 8 colors.

Thursday, June 7st

Icarus updated:

  • Added a second ZIS suit to engineering.
  • Remapped CE office and surrounding areas.

Wednesday, June 6th

Sieve updated:

  • Radiation now works properly, watch out for that Singularity!
  • Disposals are no longer the loudest machines in existence.
  • Building portable turrets with lasertag guns now makes them fire lasertag bolts based on team, and they will automatically target and prioritize people wearing opposing team gear.
  • The same can be done for ED-209s, simply using a lasertag vest and gun (same color) where you would use a security vest and taser in construction.
  • Added mineral walls and powered mineral door construction. More information can be found in the commit thread, but basically they are built the same way others are, apply mineral to girder for a mineral wall, mineral to airlock assembly for a powered mineral door.
  • Commit Thread
  • Throw hotkey (end) now works with TK.
  • Swap hands hotkey (page up) now cycles through borg modules.

Nodrak updated:

Errorage updated:

  • Some of the more pressing issues with the new user interface were addressed. These include the health indicator being too far up, the open inventory taking a lot of space, hotkey buttons not being removable and suit storage not being accessible enough.
  • A toggle-hotkey-buttons verb was added to the OOC tab, which hides the pull, drop and throw buttons for people who prefer to use hotkeys and never use the buttons.
  • Added a character setup option which allows you to pick between the Midnight, Orange and Old iconsets for the user interface.

Tuesday, May 22nd

Icarus updated:

  • RIG helmets can now be used as flashlights, just like hardhats. Credit to Sly for the sprites.
  • HoP's office has been remapped and made into his private office. Conference Room can now be accessed from the main hall.

Sunday, May 20th

Errorage updated:

  • The new user interface is here. If anything is broken or something should be done differently please post feedback on the forum. Spriters are encouraged to make new sprites for the UI.
  • When you receive a PDA message, the content is displayed to you if the PDA is located somewhere on your person (so not in your backpack). You will also get a reply button there. This will hopefully make PDA communication easier.
  • New hotkeys! delete is the now the 'stop dragging' hotkey, insert is the 'cycle intents' hotkey.

Saturday, May 19th

Doohl updated:

  • You can now swap hands by clicking with your middle mouse button (you have to click on a visible object though, that's the catch).

Invisty updated:

  • Sexy new warpspace (or whatever) tiles.

Important changes below!

Thursday, May 10th

Sieve updated:

  • Reverted dismemberment, the recent gun changes, and Tarajans. Before you shit up the forums, read this:
  • Dismemberment was ported from Bay12, but only halfway, and there were several problems with it. I know many people really liked it, but as it stood it did not fit the playstyle here at all. This had to be removed, there is work on a more fitting system, but this had to be taken out first regardless, and the longer people beat around the bush the worse the situation got.
  • The gun change was made for no real reason and was pretty problematic, so reverting that should mean there are a lot less 'accidental suicides.'
  • Tarjans were reverted by request as well, and since keeping them working after removing dismemberment would be a stupid amount of work.

Sunday, May 6th

Cheridan updated:

  • -New booze sprites for the drinks that were removed! Re-enabled the recipes for the removed drinks. Get cracking, bartenders. -You now need 10 sheets of metal instead of 2 to make a gas canister, people can't FILL ENTIRE ROOMS WITH THEM.

April 10, the year of our lord 2012

Agouri updated:

  • CONTRABAND-CON UPDATE: Added posters. I'm sorry to add it seperately with the rest of contraband, but there was a lack of sprites for everything else. Hopefully, people will gain interest and get me some damn sprites this way :3 As I said, this is an ongoing project of mine. So starting of, we've got...
  • POSTERS! Posters come in rolled packages that can adhere to any wall or r_wall, if it's uncluttered enough.

    How they get on-board: The quartermaster can now set the receiver frequency of his supplycomp circuit board. A bit simplistic as of now, will work on it later. Building a supplycomp with a properly set up circuitboard will give access to the Contraband crate.

    How they're used: Unfold the rolled poster on any wall or r_wall to create the poster. There are currently 17 designs, with the possibility of me adding more.

    How to get rid of them: You can rip them using your hand... To cleanly extract them and not ruin them for future use, however, you can use a pair of wirecutters.

    How they're classified: They're contraband, so it's perfectly okay for security officers to confiscate them. Punishment for contraband-providers (or end-users, if you want to go full nazi) is up to the situational commanding officers.

Nodrak updated:

  • Merged 'Game' and 'Lobby' tabs during pre-game into one tab

23 March 2012

Doohl updated:

  • Escape shuttles/pods now spend about 2 minutes in high-speed transit before they reach centcom/recon shuttle. This is a warning: regular after-round shuttle grief is NOT OKAY while the shuttle is still in transit! Save it for when the shuttle gets to centcom! The purpose of this is to give potential antagonists and protagonists a chance to have a final showdown in the shuttle. The round does not end until the shutle comes to a stop and docks. Don't step outside while the shuttle is moving!

    For example; if you are a traitor and have an escape-alone objective and a couple of people manage to squeeze in the shuttle, you have two minutes to kill/toss them out to win. Or you can just chill for the duration and reflect on the round.

13 March 2012

Nodrak & Carn updated:

  • Fixed the way flashes break. Long story short: They'll never break on first use so rev don't get screwed over. They run out of charge temporarily when spammed but recharge. Spamming them also increases the chance of them breaking a little, so use them sparingly.

Doohl updated:

  • Telecommunications has been refined, with many new features and modules implemented.
  • NTSL (Nanotrasen Scripting Language) is ONLINE! This is a brand new, fully operational scripting language embedded within SS13 itself. The intended purpose is to eventually expand this scripting language to Robotics and possibly other jobs, but for now you may play with the TCS (Traffic Control Systems) implementation of NTSL in the Telecommunications Satellite. Recommended you read the NT Script wiki page for information on how to use the language itself. Other than that, there's not a lot of documentation.
  • Radio systems have been further optimized, bugfixed, etc. Should be more stable.
  • Intercoms now require power to work.

24 February 2012

PolymorphBlue updated:

  • Headsets are now modular! Use a screwdriver on them to pop out their encrpytion keys, and use a key on one to put it in. A headset can hold two keys.

  • Chaplains can no longer self heal with the bible

Kor updated:

  • A new passive mob ability: Relentless. Relentless mobs cannot be shoved (though may still swap places with help intent)

31 January 2012
  • Carn updated:

    • Each outpost has it's own system for the conveyors so they won't interfere with each other.
    • Powercell chargers have been buffed so now higher capacity cells are actually useable.
    • A diamond mech drill has been added. While it isn't any stronger than the standard drill, it is much faster.
29 January 2012, got Comp Arch exams on Wednesday :(
  • Agouri updated:
    • UPDATE ON THE UPDATE: Newspapers are now fully working, sorry for that. Some minor icon bugs fixed. Now I'm free to work on the contest prizes :3
    • Newscasters are now LIVE! Bug reports, suggestions for extra uses, tears etc go here.
    • What ARE newscasters? Fans of the Transmetropolitan series might find them familiar. Basically, they're terminals connected to a station-wide news network. Users are able to submit channels of their own (one per identified user, with channels allowing feed stories by other people or, if you want the channel to be your very own SpaceJournal, being submit-locked to you), while others are able to read the channels, either through the terminals or a printed newspaper which contains every news-story circulating at the time of printing.
    • About censorship: You can censor channels and feed stories through Security casters, found in the HoS'es office and the Bridge. Alternatively, if you want a channel to stop operating completely, you can mark it with a D-Notice which will freeze it and make all its messages unreadable for the duration it is in effect. If you've got the access, of course.
    • Basically I think of the newscaster as nothing more as an additional Roleplaying tool. Grab a newspaper along with your donuts and coffee from the machines, read station rumors when you're manning your desk, be a station adventurer or journalist with your very own network journal!
    • I would ask for a bit of respect when using the machine, though. I removed all and any channel and story restrictions regarding content, so you might end up seeing channels that violate the rules, Report those to the admins.
    • Finally, due to the removal of the enforced "Channel" string, it's recommended to name your channels properly ("Station Paranormal Activity Channel" instead of "Station Paranormal Activity", for example")
28 January 2012
  • BubbleWrap updated:
    • Arresting buff!
    • A person in handcuffs being pulled cannot be bumped out of the way, nor can the person pulling them. They can still push through a crowd (they get bumped back to behind the person being pulled, or pushed ahead depending on intent).
27 January 2012
  • LastyScratch updated:
    • Toggle-Ambience now works properly and has been moved from the OOC tab to the Special Verbs tab to be with all the other toggles.
  • RavingManiac updated:
    • The bar now has a "stage" area for performances.
  • Blaank updated:
    • Added a vending machine to atmopherics reception desk that dispenses large oxygen tanks, plasma tanks, emergency oxegen tanks, extended capacity emergency oxygen tanks, and breath masks.
  • Petethegoat updated (for a bunch of other people):
    • Lattice is now removed when you create plating or floor (credit Donkieyo).
    • Monkeys now take damage while in crit (credit Nodrak).
    • The warden now has his own jacket. (credit Shiftyeyesshady).

17 January 2012
  • Doohl updated:
    • Syndicate shuttle now starts with a All-In-One telecommunication machine, which acts as a mini-network for the syndie channel. It intercepts all station radio activity, too, how cool is that?
15 January 2012
  • Doohl updated:
    • The radio overhaul 'Telecommunications' is now LIVE. Please submit any opinions/feedback in the forums and check the wiki article on Telecommunications for some more info for the curious.
    • The AI satellite has been replaced with a communications satellite. You can get there via teleporter or space, just like the AI satellite. I highly recommend not bum-rushing the new satellite, as you may be killed if you don't have access. It's a very secure place.
    • Once a human's toxicity level reaches a certain point, they begin throwing up. This is a natural, but overall ineffective method of purging toxins from the body.
    • You can now travel Z-levels in Nuclear Emergency mode (the nuke disk is still bound to the station). This means the nuclear agents can and probably will fly off into space to blow up the comm satellite and shut down communications.
9 January 2012
  • ConstantA updated:
    • Reworked exosuit internal atmospherics (the situation when exosuit is set to take air from internal tank, otherwise cabin air = location air):
      • If current cabin presure is lower than "tank output pressure", the air will be taken from internal tank (if possible), to equalize cabin pressure to "tank output pressure"
      • If current cabin presure is higher than "tank output pressure", the air will be siphoned from cabin to location until cabin pressure is equal to "tank output pressure"
      • Tank air is not altered in any way even if it's overheated or overpressured - connect exosuit to atmos connector port to vent it
      • "Tank output pressure" can be set through Maintenance window - Initiate maintenance protocol to get the option
    • Fixed bug that prevented exosuit tank air updates if exosuit was connected to connector port
    • Combat exosuits melee won't gib dead mobs anymore
    • QM exosuit circuit crates cost lowered to 30 points
    • Exosuit plasma converter effectiveness +50%
8 January 2012
  • Agouri updated:
    • I'm back home and resumed work on Newscasters and Contraband.
    • But I got bored and made cargo softcaps instead. Flippable! Enjoy, now all we need is deliverable pizzas.
    • Oh, also enjoy some new bodybag functionality and sounds I had ready a while ago, with sprites from Farart. Use a pen to create a visible tag on the bodybag. Wirecutters to cut it off. Also it's no longer weldable because it makes no goddamn sense.
7 January 2012
  • Donkieyo updated:
    • You must now repair damaged plating with a welder before placing a floor tile.
    • You can now relabel canisters if they're under 1kPa.

28 December 2011
  • RavingManiac updated:
    • Wrapped objects can now be labelled with a pen
    • Wrapped small packages can be picked up, and are now opened by being used on themselves
    • Mail office remapped such that packages flushed down disposals end up on a special table
    • Package wrappers placed in most of the station departments
    • In short, you can now mail things to other departments by wrapping the object, labelling it with the desired destination using a pen, and flushing it down disposals. At the mail room, the cargo tech will then tag and send the package to the department.

    • Added Sleeper Medical module for exosuits. Similar to common sleepers, but no ability to inject reagents.
    • Added Cable Layer module for exosuits. Load with cable (attack cable with it), activate, walk over dismantled floor.
    • Added another exosuit internal damage type - short circuit. Short-circuited exosuits will drain powercell charge and power relay won't work.
    • You should be able to send messages to exosuit operators using Exosuit Control Console
    • Gygax armour and module capacity nerfed.
    • Exosuit weapon recharge time raised.
    • Bugfix: EMP actually drains exosuit cell and damages it
  • RavingManiac updated:
    • Meat will now spoil within three minutes at temperatures between 0C and 100C.
    • Rotten meat has the same nutritional value as normal meat, and can be used in the same recipes. However, it is toxic, and ingesting a badly-prepared big bite burger can kill you.
    • Because refrigeration serves a purpose now, the kitchen cold room freezing unit is turned off by default. Chefs should remember to turn the freezer on at the start of their shift.
21 December 2011

19 December 2011
  • Kor updated:
    • General/Misc Changes
      • Escape pods no longer go to the horrific gibbing chambers. Rather, they will be picked up by a salvage ship in deep space. (This basically changes nothing mechanics wise, just fluff)
      • An ion rifle now spawns on the nuclear operative shuttle. Maybe this will help with them getting destroyed by sec borgs every round?
    • Wizard Changes
      • The wizard can now purchase magic artefacts in addition to spells in a subsection of the spellbook.
      • The first (and currently only) new artefact is the Staff of Change, which functions as a self recharging energy weapon with some special effects.
      • The wizard has a new alternative set of robes on his shuttle.
    • Cult Changes
      • Cultists now each start with three words (join, blood, self). No more will you suffer at the hands of cultists who refuse to share words.

  • Erro updated:
    • Escape pods have been added to test the concept.
    • Escaping alone in a pod does not count towards the escape alone objective, it counts towards the escape alive objective tho. Escape alone only requires you to escape alone on the emergency shuttle, it doesn't require you to ensure all pods are empty. Cult members that escape on the pods do not ocunt towards the cult escaping acolyte number objective. Escaping on a pod is a valid way to survive meteor.
  • Polymorph updated:
    • Fire is now actually dangerous. Do not touch fire.
8 December 2011
  • Errorage updated:
    • Fixed the comms console locking up when you tried to change the alert level.
    • Added a keycard authentication device, which is used for high-security events. The idea behind it is the same as the two-key thing from submarine movies. You select the event you wish to trigger on one of the devices and then swipe your ID, if someone swipes their ID on one of the other devices within 2 seconds, the event is enacted. These devices are in each of the head's offices and all heads have the access level to confirm an event, it can also be added to cards at the HoP's ID computer. The only event that can currently be enacted is Red alert.
  • Kor updated:

  • Petethegoat updated:
    • Diagonal movement is gone on account of them proving to be a bad idea in practice. A grand experiment nonetheless.

29 October 2011
  • Petethegoat updated:
    • Stunglove overhaul: part one. Stun gloves are now made by wiring a pair of gloves, and then attaching a battery- this shows up on the object sprite, but not on your character. Stungloves use 2500 charge per stun! This means that some low capacity batteries will make useless stungloves. To get your old inconspicous gloves back, simply cut away the wire and battery. Note that insulated gloves lose their insulation when you wire them up! Yet to come: stungloves taking extra damage from shocked doors.
    • Removed sleepypens! Paralysis pens have been changed to look like normal pens instead of penlights, and have been slightly nerfed. They will paralyse for about fifteen seconds, and cause minor brain damage and dizziness.
    • Uplink Implants now have five telecrystals instead of four.

Once a focus is selected so long as you are in range of the focus you can now click somewhere to throw the focus at the target. To quit using TK just drop the tkgrab item.
21 October 2011, Tuesday:
  • Errorage updated:
    • Old keyboard hotkey layout option available again! home, end, page down and page up now once again do what they did before by default. To use diagonal movement you will need to use your numpad with NUM LOCK enabled.
      The new list of hotkeys is as follows: (Valid as of 21.10.2011)
      • Numpad with Num Lock enabled = movement in wanted direction.
      • Numpad with Num Lock disabled = as it was before. movement north-south-east-west and throw, drop, swap hands, use item on itself.
      • Page up (also numpad 9 with num lock disabled) = swap hands
      • Page down (also numpad 3 with num lock disabled) = use item in hand on itself
      • home (also numpad 7 with num lock disabled) = drop
      • end (also numpad 1 with num lock disabled) = throw
      • CTRL + A = throw
      • CTRL + S = swap hands
      • CTRL + D = drop
      • CTRL + W = use item in hand on itself
      • Numpad divide (/) = throw
      • Numpad multiply (*) = swap hands
      • Numpad subtract (-) = drop
      • Numpad add (+) = use item in hand on itself
      In short, use Num Lock to swap between the two layouts.
18 October 2011, Tuesday:
  • Errorage updated:
    • You can now move diagonally! To do so, use the numpad. The keybaord has been remapped to make this possible:

      • CTRL + S = swap hands
      • CTRL + D = drop
      • CTRL + W = use item in hand on itself
      • Numpad divide (/) = throw
      • Numpad multiply (*) = swap hands
      • Numpad subtract (-) = drop
      • Numpad add (+) = use item in hand on itself
15 October 2011, White Cane Safety Day:
  • Agouri updated:
    • There has been a tidal wave of bugfixes over the last 5 or so days. If you had previously tried something on the station, saw that it was bugged and never tried it again, chances are it got fixed.

(Blood samples with two types of antibodies will still let the Pandemic recharge slightly faster than it used to.)
  • Errorage updated:
    • Opening a storage item on your belt will now display the proper number of slots even if the number is different from 7.

If testing is going on and you notice a bug, please report it via adminhelp. If you find yourself unable to perform an action, you can double click (By that I mean spam the shit out of clicking) to use the old proc, which is unchanged and will behave like you're used to. Standard roleplay rules apply during tests, they're not an excuse to murder eachother.

  • Errorage updated:
    • You can no longer clone people who suicided. I REPEAT! You can no longer clone people who have suicided! So use suiciding more carefully and only if you ACTUALLY want to get out of a round. You can normally clone people who succumbed tho, so don't worry about that.

    • Fixed bugshit
    • You can now make normal martinis again, removed a silly recipe conflict (Thanks, muskets.). Good barmen are urged to blend the good ol' recipes since the new ones have sprites that SUCK ASS JESUS CHRIST
  • Doohl updated:

29 July 2011. - Day of Forum revival!
  • Doohl updated:
    • Bugfix: Metroids should never "shut down" and just die in a corner when they begin starving. And so, hungry Metroids are a force to be feared.
    • The Cargo computers now have the ability to cancel pending orders to refund credits. This was put in place so that idiots couldn't waste all the cargo points and run off. However, if the shuttle is en route to the station you won't be able to cancel orders.
    • Bugfix: the manifest has been fixed! Additionally, the manfiest is now updated realtime; job changes and new arrivals will be automatically updated into the manifest. Joy!
    • Metroids, when wrestled off of someone's head or beaten off, now get stunned for a few seconds.
  • Agouri updated:
    • I was always bothered by how unprofessional it was of Nanotransen (in before >Nanotransen >professionalism) to just lay expensive spacesuits in racks and just let them be. Well, no more. Introducing...
    • Suit Storage Units. Rumored to actually be repurposed space radiators, these wondrous machines will store any kind of spacesuit in a clean and sterile environment.
    • The user can interact with the unit in various ways. You can start a UV cauterisation cycle to disinfect its contents, effectively sterilising and cleaning eveyrthing from the suits/helmets stored inside.
    • A sneaky yordle can also hide in it, if he so desires, or hack it, or lock it or do a plethora of shady stuff with it. Beware, though, there's plenty of dangerous things you can do with it, both to you and your target.
    • The Unit's control panel can be accessed by screwdriving it. That's all I'm willing to say, I'd like to let the players find out what each hack option does and doesn't. Will add more stuff later.
    • Added Command Space suit, Chief Engineer space suit and Chief Medical Officer spacesuit (In a new space that you'll probably notice by yourself) to make it easier for you to look like a special snowflake.
    • EVA and CMO office modified to accomodate the new suits and SSUs. Look, I'm not a competent mapper, okay? Fuck you too. A mapper is strongly recommended to rearrange my half assed shit.
    • Soda cans, cigarette packets, cigarettes and cigars as well as bullet casings are now considered trash and can be picked up by the trashbag. Now you can annoy the janitor even more!
    • Sprite credit goes to Alex Jones, his portfolio can be found here: http://bspbox.com. Thanks a lot, bro.
    • With the recent forum fuss and all that, I've got a thread to specifically contain rants and bug reports about this update. Click me

  • Muskets updated:
    • The prepackaged songs (Space Asshole, Cuban Pete, Darkest Honk, etc) have been removed. This doesn't mean admins can't play midis, this just gets rid of a lot of unnecessary download time.
  • Firecage updated:
    • A whole bunch of new drinks and food. Seriously, there's alot!
    • New weapons such as the shock revolver and large energy crossbow.

  • Doohl updated:
    • A new alien race: Metroids! They are a mostly non-sentient race of jellyfish-like organisms that float in the air and feed on the life energy of other organisms. While most Metroids have never shown signs of self-awareness, they do exhibit signs of basic logic and reasoning skills as well as very sophisticated perception. Nanotrasen has shipped two baby Metroids for the xenobiology department. They should be handled with the utmost care - they are some of the deadliest beings in the known universe!
    • R&D gets a new toy: the freeze gun. Despite popular belief, this will not literally freeze things!
    • Every single chemical reagent has been assigned a color.

    • Cyborgs finally drop their MMI when gibbed like they were supposed to back when I added MMIs. Round- start cyborgs use whatever name you have selected for your character for the brain that gets spawned for them.
  • Darem updated:
    • Chemistry update
    • In containers where there isn't a perfect ratio of reagents, reactions won't consume ALL of the related reagents (so if you mix 10 anti-toxin with 20 inaprovaline, you get 10 tricordrazine and 10 inaprovaline rather then just 10 tricodrazine)

6 May 2011, AMURRICA FUCK YEAH day
  • DANGERCON UPDATE:Agouri and Erro updated(I'm in the DangerCon team now, nyoro~n :3):
    • Backpacks removed from all players. It was unrealistic. You can now had to the living quarters to get one from the personal closets there.
    • Any firearms now send you to critical in 1-2 shots. Doctors need to get the wounded man to surgery to provide good treatment. Guide for bullet removal is up on the wiki.
    • Brute packs and kelotane removed altogether to encourage use of surgery for heavy injury.
    • Just kidding
    • Fireaxe cabinets and Extinguisher wall-mounted closets now added around the station, thank Nanotransen for that.
    • Because of Nanotransen being Nanotransen, the fire cabinets are electrically operated. AIs can lock them and you can hack them if you want the precious axe inside and it's locked. The axe itself uses an experimental two-handed system, so while it's FUCKING ROBUST you need to wield it to fully unlock its capabilities. Pick up axe and click it in your hand to wield it, click it again or drop to unwield and carry it.You can also use it as a crowbar for cranking doors and firedoors open when wielded, utilising the lever on the back of the blade. And I didn't lie to you. It's fucking robust.
    • Fireaxe, when wielded, fully takes up your other hand as well. You can't switch hands and the fireaxe itself is unwieldy and won't fit anywhere.
    • A fireaxe cabinet can also be smashed if you've got a strong enough object in your hand.
    • EXTINGUISHER CLOSETS, made by dear Erro, can be found in abundance around the station. Click once to open them, again to retrieve the extinguisher, attack with extinguisher to place it back. Limited uses, but we've got plans for our little friend.
    • Sprite kudos go to: Cheridan for most of them, Khodoque for the fantastic fireaxe head. I merged those two. Also thanks to matty and Arcalane for giving it a shot.
    • Has the piano got TOO annoying? Try the fire axe...
    • Oh, and tou can now construct Light floors! To do it: Use wires on glass, then metal on the produced assembly, then place it on an uncovered floor like you would when replacing broken floor tiles. To deconstruct: Crowbar on light floor, use crowbar on produced assembly to remove metal, wirecutters to seperate the wires from the glass. Sprites by delicious Hempuli.
    • Got something to bitch about? Got a bug to report? Want to create drama? Did the clown destroy your piano while you were playing an amazing space remix of the moonlight sonata? Give it here

  • Just kidding, it's only minor changes to medbay/mechbay/cybernetics/R&D/toxins/robotics/chapel/theatre
  • Okay so there's too many changes to list completely, but basically: toxins/R&D/virology/xenobiology are south through medbay; robotics/cybernetics/mechbay are where toxins used to be, the theatre and chapel are above medbay.
  • Theatre is a new place for the Clown and Mime to play, there are some costumes available, a stage and backstage, and seating for the audience.
  • R&D and Toxins have been combined together. R&D is still work in progress. You need to head south through medbay to get there.

  • Virology's been rearranged, but it is mostly in the same place still.
  • Xenobiology is work in progress. [There's some fun stuff still being coded]
  • The Chapel is now to the north. You'll probably be thinking something like "Goddamn, this place is fucking huge", but it's actually smaller than the previous chapel.
  • Robotics and related stuff is also work in progress - however, everything needed for making borgs is there. Note: de-braining will now be done by surgeons in medbay, rather than roboticists in robotics, in case you're wondering where your optable went.
  • I added color-coded pipes in the areas I was working on. Red pipes run from air siphons and feed into the waste loop; blue pipes run from air vents and pump whatever atmos is set to pump. Yeah, there's TWO pipe networks on the station, who knew? Well, some of you probably did, but I didn't!
