You need the .dmb and resource files that you het from downloading the latest version (SS13 V6)

[Micro102]

Isn't there also a map download? Like Bay Station 12's last save?

[qwertyuiopas]

It's encoded in the .dmb.

Also, another SS81, now with a "no air" object, rather than a no air variation of certain turfs, an air indicator, and some other improvements.

A note on the graphics:
All that is diffrent in the design, is that the lower right edges are slightly darker, the upper left lighter. Such a simple change, when not overdone, gives a nice modern look to things. A slightly larger more gradient version is what made the windows XP look so much better than 98 and earlier.
This sort of fake 3d can be seen almost EVERYWHERE with computers. It's slightly more work for artists, but has great results.

Huh. I can't seem to put any items in the world, though.
...
Wait, holy shit I'm un-muted! This calls for celebration!

Well, it seems uploading .02 gave me a massive burst of inspiration to continue, so here is .03!

The only diffrence is health, a health indicator, mobs having a world tick, taking damage in airless zones(later you will also take damage in cold areas, as well as space, all stacking for maximum damage).

Also, not visible yet is that the oxygen indicator has a mid-state.
It is not visible because the air-tick is not ready, so it just check if the turf has a gases object(to change to a more generic name to reflect it's purpose to handle any gas or liquid in any object)

Griefers on the server....

[Micro102]

So many links....Which one is the current up-to-date server file?

[qwertyuiopas]

Something I thought about:
All of the tools use the attack proc to manipulate objects.

So, my idea is to have an item use proc that goes on to do the regular attack proc only if it returns false.

Also, give players an activity var that increases with physical exertion and decreases over time.
It increases the mob's oxygen requirement.
That way, a resting player, bonus for laying down, can last longer on internals.
Also would be a great place for genetics manipulation.

Musings include a body weight setting, from 80% to 150%, that slightly alters how much oxygen you need, how fast you get hungry/thisty(if either are included as game mechanics) and how fast medications and substances take effect.

My links are for a version being developed by me, a total rewrite, mostly to see if I can recreate it with better structure, but also as a good way to learn the enviroment.

SS81, where the 81 is the ASCII value for Q.

[Micro102]

will all this extra code eventually lag the server?

[qwertyuiopas]

What?

I don't know(If you are talking about my total rewrite, because I haven't gotten near to finishing, so it may either run faster or slower).


Bonus for coders as I get off for the night
(Numbers and formula may change)

Code: [Select]

var/oxy_needed = 35 - (!awake)*10  + (!prone)*15//convert prone to boolean 1 or 0, also
//standing players take more oxygen
oxy_needed=round(oxy_needed*(1+sqrt(active*1.2)/20))

Just a curious question, how do the average populations of the goons' servers and our server compare?

[Jakkarra]

pretty badly for us, i think they get around 40ish players at a time, spread out around all their servers.

By The Way,

im thinking abut converting ss13 to an FPS version when i learn C or C++ or C# or something...

[Micro102]

Make that a different game then, as i dont think the maker will allow a game with the same plot but different coding allowed.

[Yanlin]

Qwerty, here's a neat little hint. Make the wall and floor textures CONTINUOUS. Like in our current version. I don't want every tile to be square like that. I want it to give the illusion if a continuous wall.
