But, that means that if you were in an area (say the engine) and got a job change while you were there, you would be stuck until someone let you out. It would also make it so the HoP could make the captain an assistant or something like that, unless you turned off access to demoting the captain. It would also allow griefers to have a field day if they became captain or HoP because they could just turn off everyones access.

That's true, and I don't want to think about the workarounds that might mitigate that.  However, sadly, I was thinking of how a real station would assign jobs when I posted.  Ah well, syndicate agents infiltrate SS13 every day, it's to be expected.

What other one?

The goons'?
I am unsure, but they may limit who can edit it and may have disabled new accounts...

Oh, you mean the one WITH ADs? And still less than 50 PAGES? And with that ugly WIKIA LOOK? And not hosted by what might be the new OFFICIAL SITE? And WITHOUT HELPFUL INFOBOXES?

For comparison, this is the closest to complete article on the one I linked to:
http://www.ss13.org/wiki/index.php?title=Toolbox
Compare to
http://spacestation13.wikia.com/wiki/Toolbox
Notice the refrence to "mechanical toolbox", that I don't know if it even exists?

Also, no infobox!

Maybe the ss13.org one should evolve into the coder wiki?

Sorry about the wait people, I recently started WoW because of a girl(I think it's the girl stealing all the time). Anyway, I found the little evildoer, it was one line of code in r_wall/attack_hand that would call itself, thus causing an infinite loop. Can't be sure it's the crasher, but there's a chance, since every little piece of shit seems to be causing a crash. This also fixes the bug where zombies destroy an r_wall in one strike. I shall send the link to Johbson.

yay.

this may mean our dreams of a perfect station are coming to fruition.

any news on whether or not we are going to bother with multiple Z-levels?

Multi-z-level stations might be an issue: it forces maps to be even BIGGER and SLOWER LOADING than now. Currently, map load slows the server startup from near-instant to ~10+ seconds.

There already are multiple Z levels, many of which store other locations such as the AI satellite and the shuttles.  However, I imagine a multi-level station would create too many problems; how to transfer power and gasses between the two, how to handle movement of dragged objects, and how movement across Z levels would be done (you would have to be able to move up/down in space), among other things.

The z level movement could be solved with an elevator room.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

Can BYOND even handle multiple z-levels? I don't think there are any games that have that, at least not with transferring things like oxygen and electricity.
