Is there some reason the sandbox panel can't have functionality like the admins' 'spawn' verb? That just pops up a text box that will search through all atoms for the string you enter, so you can type in 'canister' and then it will present you with a list of all the canisters to choose from.

That search takes awhile when I do a local hosting. 10 people doing that at once? Who knows what would happen.


but... but... that should be done clientside. it shouldnt impact server performance.
Haha. Clientside. Byond. Good one.

I heard that that adminverb was kinda crash-prone.

It is. The sheer amount of items causes your game to freeze for a little bit when you type in one letter.

Hence why Glloyd-events are sometimes a bit laggy.

He tries to type in, 'Hivebot', we wait, wondering if something exploded... Hivebots spawn, we wait a little longer thinking, "Oh god, that's a huge fucking bomb. I wonder where it hi-HIVEBOTS OH FU- GIMME THE FIRE AXE"

Well, BYOND actually works as a program for the simple fact that EVERYTHING is done server-side. The entire point of BYOND is that you can play every game with the same client. If BYOND didn't work the way it does, we would have to download a new SS13 client every few days when an update comes out.

Also, sandbox panel closes after spawning? RAAAH. Dear god, this is going to be annoying. Any chance of removing this? (Altough I'm not sure if it's worth it, considering that we want to stay pretty close to /tg/)

By the way, get on the secondary server, people! Meh, I'm just gonna be playing on /tg/.

E: Wut. The mode is secret and for some reason, the fire alarms are saying that the alert level is delta. AKA, nuke-is-armed level.

Yes, it's absurdly easy to disable: /tg/ is not stupid with changes like that, so it's a matter of commenting/uncommenting a new config option.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

Played part of a round with Baystation, and woah. Laggy as fuck. Also, no Mechs on the shuttle. Lame.

I heard something on another server, and decided to check it for myself. Sadly, it was true:

Quote from: Upon opening NoX Station:
May 16th: Congratulations on the taking down the other servers this week.  Each member participating in the attack has been awarded two unban cards.  We also have three new Viral Marketing slots available.  adminhelp if you want to be part of our advertisement team.  -jimbob

I am unimpressed NoX. Very unimpressed.

That is an incredibly stupid ban system.
