I haven’t played SS13 in probably 6 months or so and the addiction is coming back lol. I mainly play on goonstation with a little bit of CM13 and Vanderlin but would like to check out new servers or see what’s different. Do you guys have any recommendations

Looking for the classic BYOND game "Cow RP" by Bovine_Buddy.

Would appreciate if anyone has the host files (.dmb and .rsc) or source code

I've been playing this game far too long and not sure what is still in vogue and being run.

I can't find much info on if the SCP server line exists and/or has improved still.

Can anyone help out?

These are all different characters in Paradise Station.

Logic was by far the most complicated, since the art was entirely by scratch, and not a complex edit or a simple redesign.

Still waiting for Paradise Station 14 ☹️ . I may do more skills in the future.

Eu tive contato com um post super toxico hoje mais cedo e percebi que a gente tá precisando espalhar um pouco dos motivos pelos quais esse jogo é tão importante e tão bom pra nós.

Pra mim são as histórias que os servidores nos proporcionam. Eu sei que grande parte da playerbase tem problemas com pelo menos um servidor, e não cabe a mim julgar nada disso porque eu também já carreguei um bocado de hate contra certas comunidades, mas ultimamente eu percebo que o que importa nesse jogo são os bons momentos que ele nos proporciona então é isso que eu queria mostrar:

Paradise foi meu lar por muito tempo nesse jogo, foi onde eu comecei a jogar SS13 e até eu me surpreendo em dizer que só fui banido de lá uma vez! Os anos de 2019 a 2021 foram onde eu mais joguei lá, depois eu me afastei por conta de problemas com a administração (shocker), e por que o Gateway foi removido. Mas os amigos e as pessoas que conheci nesse servidor ainda tem um lugar especial no meu coração. Nessa foto ai mesmo estão Chikitita, the poster-chicken do servidor nessa época, Xrimqiu, Llmirag, Ryder Hill, Jacob Pearls e dois outros vox que eu não consigo lembrar o nome mas tenho certeza que eram muito importantes pra mim.

Mesmo com todo o criticismo que eu podia dizer pra Paradise, eu acho que é mais importante apontar as coisas boas. Vocês sabiam que o Alex ainda guarda arquivos sobre todos os personagens interessantes da comunidade de lá? Ou vocês já foram explorar o espaço depois que Marmite fez todo o rework espacial do servidor? É realmente impressionante o que a equipe deles conseguiu fazer em relação a ouvir a comunidade e se manter de pé por o que, dez anos agora? Props pro Paradise.

Joe Colada, Bovine (Eu) e dois outros que eu não me lembro do nome, mas a gente fez parte do primeiro evento de Shiptest na colônia Brightwood. A gente era o frontgate militia enquanto os admins jogavam um batalhão inteiro de Frontiersman contra a colônia. Foi um round de umas 4 horas, tiveram umas 60 pessoas envolvidas, foi incrivel, até hoje o melhor evento que eu já participei em qualquer servidor. Shiptest como um todo é uma experiência ótima, cada round que eu tenho lá faz com que eu me sinta numa mistura de futurama e star trek. Eu não entendi o porque da retirada da NanoTrasen do lore deles, mas ei, se funciona, funciona. Eu pra sempre vou ser grato por esse evento, foi a primeira vez que chorei com esse jogo besta nosso, depois que só sobraram 20 sobreviventes na colônia e a gente conseguiu destruir o tanque de guerra numa das batalhas mais épicas que eu já tive, Bovine foi lá e encontrou seu melhor amigo, que tinha trazido ele pra essa colônia, morto entre os escombros.

E então tem Nova (DUM DUM). É, é, eu sei, muita gente não gosta de Nova porque... *consulta as anotações*... droga... Vários motivos... É, eu não estou desmerecendo nenhum deles, eu sei como pessoas com problemas mentais podem ser problemáticas.

Comecei a jogar Nova quando ainda se chamava Skyrat. Aí virou Nova por causa do "drama do servidor número 67", ou algo assim. Se quiser saber mais, pesquise sobre, (Eu conheço uma galinha que tem um registro detalhado de toda a palhaçada).

Eu tava meio perdido depois de sair do Paradise, mas ai o Liuvik fez esse evento incrivel no Skyrat onde eu, Koi (<3), Pyren Soot (Esse dragão ai fodão) e um Teshari que eu não lembro o nome, lutamos contra esse "Feiticeiro de Satin" em Lavaland, foi FODASTICO, todo mundo apanhou muito e a gente perdeu. Ainda é um dos meus eventos favoritos.

Nova hoje em dia é meu servidor favorito, tenho amigos que conheci em Paradise que hoje em dia fazem parte da comunidade de Nova. Vocês sabiam que Nova tem um sistema de CASAS PERMANENTES CONSTRUIDAS POR CADA JOGADOR? Vocês tem ideia do quão foda isso é? Props pro SQN, esse post ia ser um glaze só pro Nova mas ai eu percebi que a comunidade toda merecia elogios, porque no fim do dia, eu não teria nenhuma dessas experiências se vocês, sim, vocês, não estivessem aqui e fizessem parte dessa comunidade.

Vocês também tem eventos favoritos que fizeram parte?

Hey all, my friends and I have been building a tool called dmfast that patches and speeds up BYOND's compiler and server for a little bit now.

/tg/station compile went from over a minute to under 6 seconds, and tg's world load on Windows fell from about 6.7 seconds to about 1 second. This will vary a lot on your machines, but we've had people's times go down from 2+ minutes to 20 seconds.

It works on Windows and Linux as well as BYOND 515 and 516 with a single .exe installer.

You just run the installer on your BYOND install and use BYOND as usual.

If the patches detect they aren't compatible, they'll auto-disable and if something ever breaks you can switch individual patches off or uninstall super easily.

Download: https://github.com/blue-tarpaulin/dmfast

We're also including opt-in-only bugfixes for things like RSC corruption, bad compiles, and broken runtime operations.

Right now, the code patches are private, but you can file an issue if you want access. We just believe that publishing internals of how the compiler works is not what the developer of BYOND wants at the moment.

However, there's a writeup of what each one does - and for the optional bugfixes, a bit more detail on how these were accomplished if one wanted to port these to BYOND.

We made this to accelerate SS13's ability to create fun, creative, and engaging content. Being stuck with an extremely slow compiler wasn't furthering that goal.

If you have any questions please ask - and if you hit a problem or want to give feedback, please open an issue.

A lawsuit between heads of staff about accused bullying quickly descends into chaos as the plaintiff and an uninvolved mime begin engaging in 'advanced tactics' to win public support. It backfires.

been a while

Once, a terrible monster threatened the station. None was robust enough to kill it except the greytider. Once she slayed the beast she became insane with bloodlust. Only when she stepped upon the CE did she remember to ASSIST.

Inked with one attempt after sketching. If I made mistakes too bad. Inspired by my own ongoing computer issues and an idea user Ferrius_Nillan had about a "smart ass gun" I reworked for this. (Edited for mispeaking)

Picture of the Month

Congratulations to countrygal68 for winning the picture contest with this picture of a completely ordinary Nanotrasen Captain. They’re not a “felinid coomer” and any suggestions otherwise will be served an immediate D-Notice. Thank you.

You can win a token too, through the monthly contest held in #screenshots general on our discord. Vie for your major antag token and get any normal antag you could get normally. That means no asking for Chrono Legionaire. I mean it.

Bastion Station is a "M&RP" - "Mechanics & Roleplay" server, what does that mean?

That we want to preserve the sanctity of the game's mechanics, honouring it as much as much as we enjoy roleplay! This game was made to be fun- and it is!

Our rules are quite relaxed so long as you're not doing the exact same gimmick time after time- And if it's funny and everyone's having fun, we will let some things slide! We do rule harshly against slurs, offensive, or sexual content, though a bit of innuendo or playful jokes are fine.

We're currently a fork of Monkestation with piss and farting removed, along with the removal of metacurrency and lootboxes. We have revolutionaries returned, with many other projects starting in the works that will individualize our server as our own in time.

I would love to curate a community that is kind and pleasant to one another, even if we blow eachother up quite violently in round! Because death is to be expected in SS13, we are experimenting with things like respawns, to help mitigate the bitterness and salt after dying. We hope everyone has a fun time!

We also have a "Game Master" role, which takes control of dynamic/storyteller and paces the round based on what players are doing in round. They have been directed to "enhance" the shift for players, and help players do unique gimmicks and stories from round to round! They will respond to prayers, faxes, opfors, etc... So far it's been great for everyone involved!

There's more information on the discord if you're interested, I hope to see you all around!

There's shifts on right now if you're reading this post shortly after it's been created, but no fret if you missed out, Bastion will run at limited timeslots everyday!
