[Dr. Johbson]

It's up now.

[Dr. Johbson]

Ok, this is the new list. I'll keep a copy of it in notepad, and I'll update it.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Things that NEED to be done

-Escape Pods go back to Cent. Com like they are supposed to. This is under "Need to be done" because it is broken, one day, it just stopped working, and could be contributing to why the server crashes every damn hour.

-Monkeys are seriously messed up. They glitch all the time. Could be crashing us.

-Get more coders on the team. The work of Qwertyuiopas is good, however, one guy alone cannot keep the server bug-free, and update it with features. Or, alternatively..

--Stop making new stuff for the server until it can run for 24 hours with ZERO crashes. This should have been priority number one, but it never was, for some reason.


Things that should be done sooner or later

-Losing limbs and replacing with cyborg counter-parts.

-Revamp of the genetic system, have two line of Structural Enzymes, SE1 and SE2, for double the limit of 'superpowers' and fun stuff like that.

-Space should not be random, as in, you shouldn't never be able to find the station again, but it should be very, very large.

-Mining asteroids in space. This can bring a whole lot of fun with it, just use you're imagination.

-Realistic airflow, if not beyond byond limitations. As soon as that airlock opens, ALL air is gone, person is sucked into space. To make this not a horrible greifing potential, the station needs a type of pressure shield, that is powered, and prevents breaches from ruining the station as I just mentioned.

-More viruses and parasites. Need I mention more?

-Lawyer jobs.

-Food and water, should be needed, if you go without food, you become slow at doing things, and you slowly die. Not realistic at all, considering the time, but whatever, fun is better.

-Regarding radios, something I said in the past.

..with randomized three radio channels, one for normal station talking, one for medical, and one for security.

Each radio signal has it's own colour, instead of green, randomly chosen at the beginning of the level, as well as the already little tag on the message you get now, telling you what channel you're on.

You're headset can tune into three at a time. You can choose which to talk into, with, instead of say ;hello, say 1hello, say 2hello, and say 3hello.  Might take a bit of getting used to again, but it is worth it.

-Zombies should be given a reminder that they cannot bite people through a mask. We all forget alot.

Known Bugs

-Monkeys sometimes cannot remove backpack. No other information.

-Supply Shuttle moves between Z levels strangely after called once.

-Shuttles do not go to Cent. Com. anymore.

EDITTOPREVENTTRIPLEPOST- I took the server down, it was full of complete idiots at the moment, someone ask me when they want it back up.

[andrea]

server please!
(about complete idiots, just grab a wizard suit and go killing them, or grab electropacks and screwedrivers and unleash your worst instincts.)

[Mono124]

About the air system, you shouldn't lose ALL air immediatly. I was thinking more along the lines of very quick decompression, so you are dragged at about 2 times the speed of a walking pace and can't move away because the air is taking you and anything with you out to space. If you think about it, opening an airlock on a station that large WOULD cause massive decompression, but it would take a minute or so for it to get to everywhere on the station.

[Jakkarra]

Mono's idea is better.

(sorry)

also, i'll have a lookie at the Coding for BYOND.

[qwertyuiopas]

About the supply shuttle, there IS a control computer at the destination that the person who rode it could be using, and the AI can control it, AND anyone with permission in the command area...

Chances are that if it happened something like a week ago, it could have been me on the other end.

Other stuff: Will look into it eventually.

[Skibiliano]

Wait, what is the version you are all talking about?
Servers are being hosted for OpenSS13 or the Byond one?
is the OpenSS13 even out yet?
What are the "Updates" being done for?

No, the shuttle has been acting like this from the very beginning. Me and some other guy, just the two of us, tested it for the first time. I was observing him while I was waiting for the shuttle, then I teleported on myself to find out why it was acting strangely.

[andrea]

will server be online again today ? (22:51 here). if not, i'll find something else to do.

[Dr. Johbson]

Oh, right. Its up now.

[Mono124]

Mmmmk. Beorn is meta gaming along with Andrea the second. They both "knew" it was a revolutionary round, even though nothing happened. They claimed it was because they tried to call the shuttle and it said revolutionaries were on board, but I have three problems with this issue.

1) How would the ship know there was revo's on board? Cent Com? Even then, doesn't the beginning state that what Cent Com tells you, you don't know?
2) Why the FUCK would they be calling the shuttle in the beginning of the game?
3) If Beorn is an admin, wouldn't he know that "knowing" it's revo is meta gaming? I mean, he even went and said in OOC this! "OOC: Beorn080: The current game mode is - Revolution!" when I confronted him about him meta gaming.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this some serious shit? I just had an ENTIRE round ruined by meta gamers, and one of the was an ADMIN!

EDIT: Oh, they also killed someone, and claimed everyone was a revolutionary and tied us up on the bridge. They wouldn't let us go, no matter what.

[qwertyuiopas]

The solution to hopelessly mangled metagamed rounds is is_rev = "no"

Admin only, of course.

[beorn080]

1. I believe revo is one of those modes where there was supposed to be something said about it happening. Otherwise, its impossible to win as the captain, with semidecent revos.

2. I don't know why Andrea called the shuttle. Ask him/her.

3. I took that like from the START OF ROUND text. The block that says, hey, if your a revo, kill the captain and heads, if not, save them and kill the leaders.

Qwertyuiopas, that is a perfect solution.

[andrea]

uff... stop draggin beorn in this. i ordered him to do that, and i was the captain. if somebody metagamed, it may be me, but not beorn. he followed orders and a cruel captain. he didn't go looking himself the shuttle, nor did he use his round knowledge. he just acted on what i told him.

about shuttle, IC i wanted to check if the computer worked. OOC, i wanted a reason to start electrocuting the crew before revolution grew.

[Dr. Johbson]

Your OOC reason is considered metagaming, Andrea.

Ok, from the logs I have read, and found on my own, I believe that Andrea is at fault for metagaming, and Beorn is at fault for going along with it too easily.

No, no was banned, before you all start asking, their just warnings. Not really official warnings either. If anyone has anything else to add, plus PM me.

EDIT- Server crashed, first time in ages. We just finished the round anyway, rebooting it.
