Also, Jakkarra, if you could draw some HUD icons for bots, that would be awesome. Namely, an abstracted bot body, similar to the human ones.

Sure, do it in Dream make shall i?

Up to you, really. Dream Maker has the disadvantage that you can't select areas and do copy/paste, but I don't really mind. You can upload the icons to e.g. imageshack by simply renaming them .png instead of .dmi

Mind transferring room with DNA body replicator 

Telekinesis moving items instead of teleporting them

This server is pretty good.

Edit: Found a big features list

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

    * First off I have created a completely new map. The engine is in the centre and has 2 entrances/exits, one in the maintenance tunnel and the other directly opposite the arrival shuttle. Any suggestions for the map would be nice.
    * One of my favourite features is the Heroes game mode and accompanying 'powers' (which can be given out in other game modes by primary administrators) it is based loosely on the television show Heroes (owned by ABC in America I think, it's shown on the BBC over here though).
    * Another game mode is Virus; basically a virus is spreading around the station that will kill people and must not leave on the shuttle. (Medical scanners can detect the virus but that is as much information as I shall give).
    * 2 more interesting game modes are Monster and Post-Apocalyptic (which I added recently after playing 2 of the Fallout games).

          o In Monster a single player is chosen to be the monster, they can transform into another mob who has several demonic powers. Their objective is to simply survive and cause a lot of hassle for the crew.
          o In Post-Apocalyptic the station has fallen into disrepair, the original crew have died and it is several years in the future when humanity has learnt once more how to use their advance technology. You play as a survivor of this apocalypse (your given an Assistant ID, piece of equipment and storyline) who has newly arrived on the station to try to salvage it. The game mode ends when the emergency shuttle leaves (it's an old automatic system so it still works).
    * I have added movable shuttles but they do not traverse Z levels. To do this you must use the Jumpgate in space or Jumpdrive controls on  board the shuttle.
    * A bit of a simple game mode is Combat. Basically you are all handed guns at your spawns and left to your own devices.
    * The AI has been given a hologram that it can drag about the station and talk through. It can change it's appearance and label.
    * I have added Sprinklers, these will put out fires in powered areas (hopefully), they can be disabled with a wrench.
    * Some fun stuff I have added includes stuff from Doctor Who, the TARDIS and sonic screwdriver, admins can access these.
    * Basic personal computers and portable tablets (log in by holding your ID card in your main hand and clicking Log In).

i could Use pain ot GIMP or Paint if you want, i don't really mind, but ill need a Size in Pixels plz.

[cib]

The icons will have to be 32x32 pixels. Use this as base:

[Trorbes]

Yeah, I've seen that version, Marine.  It was lagging terribly for me, though, so I didn't stay long.

[Yanlin]

Still very sad that there are two fake Bay 12 servers. Not to mention Johbson isn't hosting the real one.

So I have to play Improbable Island to entertain myself.

[Jakkarra]

K, working on it, do we have the robot's icons yet? i can use that as a base.

[Poltifar]

Didnt we have something to stop people from making fake servers?

Anyways, I propose we stop giving out the code so freely. You want the code, ask for someone to PM the link to you.

[cib]

Yeah, Cajoes posted them.

In hindsight, I remember that this thing is huge compared to a human sprite.
Just holler if I have to start over.


Scuzzer Droid.
Basic Maintenance. Station Repair. Carries basic tools. (Which can not be looted)


Fuzzer Droid.
Security. Station safety. Carries a tazer and a set of handcuffs (which are used to drag criminals around) Will also defend station against hostile elements.


Buzzer Droid.
Pure combat unit. Carries a laser and a fancy beret. Is never deployed on research stations for obvious reasons.


Nurzer Droid
Medical assistant. Equipped with diagnostic tools and several autoloading hypodermic syringes. (Which are ejected after use for hygienic reasons.)


Azzist Droid
Pack Mule. Carries whatever you want it to carry. Excluding explosives and weapons. Which are deposited into the nearest NanoTransen autodisposal unit upon detection.

If you want I can rework these to not look so.. bulky. And more individual. (instead of just bloodily ripping off Startopia.)

Oh and as comparison.

And because I like to show off.

Note though, that these might not be the final bot icons. It's also not that important for them to look similar.

But then we'd be just like the Goons!

I say that by default, the server name should be "THE HOST IS A TWIT AND FORGOT TO CHANGE THE SERVER NAME!" and the map should be called "STUPID STATION 69"

Yes. In all caps.

That way, if somebody wants to pretend to be Bay 12, they'll have to TRY. Which so far they haven't.

However, I say we keep Qwerty's version private.

Yeah, I was thinking about doing that, and now that there are fake servers, we really should.

So, everybody stop posting the source. Just PM whoever's working on it for it (Floirt, I think).

Also, there should be a little trust involved. Make sure the person asking for the source isn't a griefer before giving it to them.

Oh and the MotD should say "This was a failed attempt to host a fake Bay 12 server."

Alright, bots operate on power cells now. They currently run out of power pretty fast, barely enough to cross the station once, though they already take less to move than a door to open.

Also, if bots are ever going to be constructable, we will need icons for the following:
- the various tools(may just use regular tools, but attaching a wrench to a bot doesn't feel all that sci-fi)
- battery.. we will need that anyway
- optical sensors, communication devices, etc.
- possibly the different body parts, like trunk, arms, drive, etc.

Also, there should be some kind of "WLAN" device.. transferring video signals over a station-bounced radio doesn't make that much sense. :p

[Jakkarra]

OK! ill upload my Pic tommorrow.

dosent look THAT good, i want to see whut you think, and ill make any nessecary changes.
