Alright. Zac replied.

You can forward pretty much any port, just make sure to setup the dreamdaemon to use it."

I'll just host indefinently if you guys want. I could probably sustain like 12 people or so with a bit of lag.

[Yanlin]

Excellent. You don't want to play though?

[Poltifar]

I'm not going to PM specific times because I can't guarantee I'll be available at specific times. I hope y'all don't mind if I just happen to hop into the game if I do find time? Or do i HAVE to notify you before hand?

Anyways, I live in GMT+1 zone, so it seems my times will be similar to Yanlin's and Floirt's.

Also, if no one else volunteers for engineer, I guess I'll take it. Although I can only guarantee that the engine will be slightly functional (If we play on the standard goon map), not that it will be functional at 100% neither that it will last for long.

I'll stop by tonight and help anyone that has questions.  I can perform pretty much any job in the game.  If engineer is needed I can do that fine.  Even get the solar panels going.  I prefer either the AI or Head of Research though.

[Neonivek]

Do Researchers even do actual work?

[Cecilff2]

Not usually.  The Head of Research is supposed to coordinate them, but it usually turns into making sure they aren't using their equipment to horribly disfigure people or set off explosions nowadays.  When the jobs and interactions were new, people did research and found several things out eventually that are pretty much common knowledge now.  I remember finding the DNA Revival trick by accident and for a while it was only known by myself and someone with the key JONJONAUG.  It's actually a bug, but when the creator Exadv1 found out about it he decided to keep it in.  I then messed around with it and figured out the DNA for each disease, skin color, hair color, gender, and eye color.

This is why I love being an Atmos Tech. Decent access, always liked, easy access to air and mask and expected to be in it, and plasma tanks right there. If no one else is atmos, then you have free and easy access to half a dozen plasma tanks and oxygen canisters. Switch oxygen with plasma or set the stations air to 100% oxygen, and you got a party.

I think it would be pretty cool if the people on the Bay Station didn't learn this stuff online and actually did the research on the ship.

In my time as atmos, I never figured out how to change the station's air...

Is it that control panel in the northwest, behind a stack of filters on Goonstation?  The one that tells the vents what to suck in?  Or is there another way, that lets you put stuff into the air as well?

You know....to extinguish the massive fires.  Once everyone is safely suited up.

[beorn080]

Load siphons with plasma, the set the siphons to release. Still working on the others, but I will blow up the entire station with O2.

[Sowelu]

Oh.  That much I already know.  If I'm going to have a plasma accident though, I prefer to empty out some oxygen tanks, and then fill THOSE up with plasma.  It adds to the "oops" factor if someone finds them later...

[PTTG??]

I wouldn't mind the station exploding so regularly, if it weren't for the fact that it takes so long to restart the round.

You end up with three people alive, 6 unconscious, and eight dead. For half an hour.

[Poltifar]

I think there was a command to allow dead people to rejoin the current round as assistants or something. I think it was 'abandon mob'. Or was that only in sandbox mode?

That's too easy. Load as many siphons as you can with n2o or CO2, wait till a fire starts or start one yourself, go help them and flood the halls with the toxic gas. Can't fail.
