    The worst is when you spawn in the same room as the monkey, though.

    I noticed The Captain and HoP always turn into monkies at the start.

    Spoiler:

    That and a cloaking device is pure evil, especially if you manage to steal the thermals so you're completely invisible.

    One time I've ever been traitor was on the new station, I had cloaking device, and the captain starts with the only thermals, so I had those. However, I was severely low on time, and consequently very sloppy...still had a chance, until I actually managed to get tasered while cloaked.

    Did you walk into a firefight or something? If you're careful enough, it should be impossible for anyone to even recognize that you're there. Don't even open doors if someone else is looking, though you might want to stick open as many normal doors as you can when no one's around so you can move through them freely.

    Edit: Oh, low on time, never mind then.

    Well my mission was to escape alone on the shuttle, and I knew that given that there were a LOT of people online at the time, calling it and killing them on the shuttle just wasn't an option, so I tried to hunt down every person on the ship.

    Made it to number 3.

    Ah, there's your problem. If you had just shut off all the air everywhere, you probably would have been fine. The advantage of a cloaking device is that people don't know where you are, letting them know where you are by leaving a trail of murders just counteracts that.

    Ideally, if you're the traitor and using the cloak, the rest of the crew will forget about you, get bored and/or blow up the station, call the shuttle themselves, and then be suprised to find out that you're still playing when you win.

    Edit: Either that, or claim to be the Voice of God and order someone to start a new religion/death cult, depending on how many other crew members you need dead.

    Air thing wouldn't've worked on this map; there are space suits errwhere.

    Darn it, it's not working for me. I did this all the time last year summer, but now I can't even connect.

    EDIT: What I mean is, the whole BYOND thing won't even start up properly.

    Same. Dream Seeker just exits instantly whenever I run it. :(

  • seabassseabass Registered User regular
    I can't connect to the BYOND hub for whatever reason. Apparently there is some issue with the main thingumy, as there are 0 games and 0 players online right now.

  • SkulkSkulk Registered User
    Damn it you guys, did you break BYOND?

  • Digger DudeDigger Dude Registered User
    It turns out that byond central is not acssesible

    Which really sucks.

  • SkulkSkulk Registered User
    The hub works for me now, but I still can't connect.

    EDIT: I can connect to public games, so I guess Ray shut down the server.

  • jothkijothki Registered User regular
    I'm on but failing to connect as well. Trying a public game...

    Public games are working. Is our server just not up yet?

  • GroovyMr1337GroovyMr1337 Registered User
    Cant figure out how to connect. No such program such as dream seeker. Help please?

    The pubbie servers being up and running is a new thing though. I guess when the main hullabaloo (everything stopped accepting connections) happened earlier this morning the whole shibangibang (BYOND) went down and took the private server with it. Guess we'll have to wait on a reboot.

    It's just BYOND now. Log in (create a new account if you have to) and go to the File menu and choose Open Location.

    Okay, exactly what time is this starting?



    I might not be able to make the beginning of it, due to yard work.

  • jothkijothki Registered User regular
    2:00, I think, but that's in a half hour and there's no sign of rayofash.

    Guh, I think I'll be pubbing for a bit, just to get back into the swing of things. Damn you for making me do have to do this, ray!

  • jothkijothki Registered User regular
    This is not terribly good. I don't think I can host, can anyone else do it?

  • EFEF Registered User
    I have no idea how to host. Hopefully Ray gets back here soon so we can get some quality '13 on.

  • JerikTelorianJerikTelorian Registered User regular
    I've been wanting to do this for so long. Hopefully, I can actually connect this time around. I can connect to the pubbie servers, so (hopefully) this means I can connect to the PA one. Playing alone sucks, I need some antics, dammit!

    Well, I'll be checking back on this in an hour or so. Hopefully ray will have remembered us by then.

  • rayofashrayofash Registered User regular
    You guys broke it. I'm turning it back on now.

    I was away for the morning. I'm back now.

    13 players on right now.

  • randombattlerandombattle Registered User
    Wow I'm getting some serious massive lag on this server.

    I'll try hopping on later today and seeing if its any better. Could be on my end.

  • rayofashrayofash Registered User regular
    Is anybody else experiencing lag?

  • Seta 3000Seta 3000 Registered User
    I'm playing on pub, but it's great. I walk into the engine, the engineer walks up to me.

    I say, 'Hullo!'

    'Hola!'

    Christina Naita has been attacked with the toolbox by Greg Emmetovich.
    Christina Naita has been knocked unconscious.

    Bamf, bitch.

    Sure, but I know some of the pub dudes, so yeah.

    I'm joining the PA game now, though.

  • rayofashrayofash Registered User regular
    Whoa, 13 players. Is it lagging? Can BYOND support 13 players?

  • Seta 3000Seta 3000 Registered User
    Server's being kind of laggy.

    BYOND's netcode is highly inefficient, but it has no technical limit to the number of players (except for the overall object limit). It's just a matter of bandwidth, really.

    Wow, I just joined at the end of an awesome game.

  • EFEF Registered User
    That last game was epic beyond belief. Massacre in the bridge, crazy Jerik dual wielding tool boxes for the Imperium, gladiatorial matches, and much much more. Plus I was the only survivor who made it to the shuttle, which just made it that much more epic.

    I'm thinking SS13 night should be a weekly thing.

    That's not a half bad idea. That way, we won't have to worry about being burnt out so much.
