Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

    man

    I resolved to figure out the station's energy system

    turns out that in order to not only keep the station supplied, but maintain a significant backup, I need to sit at the panels and manually turn them once in a while

    I could put the thing on autoturn but I would rather watch scrubs and glance at the screen once in a while than sit at the watch with a timer determing the most efficient rotation time

    That's a job you can have

    Damn, I was tripping balls during the last round.

    In the game, that is.

    Phew, I had no clue what I was doing as an Atmospheric Tech. I think I started siphoning out plasma? Nothing really happened.
    I think Atmosperic Tech is supposed to be like an air controller, but at the same time making sure scrubbers don't get realeased in the process by trapping someone in the door and killing them through toxins

    Atmo Tech is one of those "if things go wrong" jobs. If a breach is blown in the hull, it's your job to get the siphons and regulators in there and crank out the right percentages of whatnot. If that doesn't happen (and honestly, I've never seen that happen in a situation where the right answer wasn't either "whatever we didn't need that room anyway" or "oh my god we only have half a station now") you're pretty much limited to dicking around.

    yes, that...is a job I had. Brilliant observation.

    regardless, station tech still isn't that much fun. I'll be sticking to my good olds.

    As a Med Assistant I pretty much just go around cleaning up discarded items.

    I'm a glorified janitor.

    the assistant jobs are ones to avoid because they don't really offer an amount of clearance that lets you get anything done.

    Toxin Researcher seems kinda like a job that doesn't do much.
    Oh hey there's a bomb in that lower area, protect it from the traitor, oh FYI don't let him get in those upper stocks.
    Seriously who'd have a bomb on board that releases fire and not toxins.

    toxin researcher is kinda like medical researcher in that if you want to enjoy the job you have to do your own thing. checking out the games engine and such. if you leave your little area and try to get embroiled in the drama, you might as well be a research assistant, but it can be pretty fun to change monkeys to epileptic humans or see how much plasma you need to keep a consistent fire going.

    but to the point where I had a fire going for 75% of the game (next to last round) personally I didn't even know how to change the monkeys into humans or things like that, maybe I wasn't searching enough.

    the first page of the GnT thread has how to use the genetic recombining machines. it's a bit convoluted and maybe the most advanced thing you can do in the game's engine (which isn't saying much), but I always love seeing the medlab stuffed with drooling nameless humans.

    I click on the BYOND desktop icon > Sign In > Go to "Bookmarks" on the menu bar > put the IP in the URL thing, and give it a name like SS13 and hit Okay.

    EDIT: Server's down at the moment though, it'll be back up tomorrow.

    Oh, thanks a lot, you are a rad dude. I do hope you end up paxing it up with tofu and I.

  • MarshmallowMarshmallow Registered User regular
    Yeah, it took me forever to figure it out because I don't think the OP explains it very well/different versions or some junk.

    And yes, PAX should be excellent, looking forward to it with gusto.
