Bay 12 Games Forum

This thread has taught me exactly, what the hell twitter is. Good to know!

I saw this movie a few hours ago.

I enjoyed it, it was very good. I've heard District 9 is better.
But this was indeed a very good film.

Just got back from the movies, internet is back up at full speed, and the server is back up as we speak!

This game is extremely difficult to learn.. Especially considering that trial and error gets you banned.

Don't worry about it on our server, just make sure you tell us you're new. 

EDIT- Server is UP! Join, people!

Is johbson still having hosting trouble?

No, I'm just sleeping alot.

Why do we only have turrets in the AI core? I always imagine stations lined with pop-up weapons to repel boarders.

... Maybe because it's a research station and guns make scientists nervous. o.O

(Also: Cooling loop is missing the support grill thingy)

I did exactly that, I had two turrets for every hallway, two for the bridge, as well as two for the brig, two for the engine, some in toxins, escape shuttle hatch, and the escape shuttle bay.

They were all controllable from the bridge, and only the captain and the AI could turn them on/off.

But they sucked, and Phoebos agreed with me, so I removed them.


I can host the server in a few minutes.

Also-

meh, the admins on other servers are too hard on you. THey give you no warnings, just BAN. I would tell a story, but you'll think it's bitchy. Anyway, so far on the bay12 server I've seen a large assortment of strange crap, like the entire station being blown up but engeneering on wizard mode. Anyway, I guess I'll tell that story for those of oyu who like reading:
I was a security officer on slurms server and somone tipped me off about a murderer. So i went to him and beat him 3 tiems with a stun baton, as soon as I got to brig he died. The admin said I shouldn't put my baton on harm, I apologised and promised I would do it for now on.For that ONE occurance he job banned me from security and the higher ups and said I didn't know how to play, I said I didn't know that one small detail then he threatened to ban me form the server if I kept arguing. Asshole

That is why we made our own server. It's not full of features, or does it have a good map, but we are without crazy admins.

I removed the turrets on the grounds that they sucked. Almost had them working, though, which I suppose made me feel special.

Any ideas on what I should do now?

Ok. Need some help here.

I did some map work, changed around quite a few things. Then, as I finish, I decide, "Hey, I should save this as a new map file. It might not work, wouldn't want to lose what DOES work, right?"

So I choose "Save as" And save the map file. One problem. It doesn't seem to read it as a map file. It seems to read it as just some normal file. What do I do? I don't want to do all that over again, it wasn't very fun.

EDIT- Fixed it myself. Never mind. Also, going to test this now, so, server is up, but you may crash and bug and die or something.

Ok. Going to be working on the map again, tell me what you guys want.

Also, server crashed, Ill bring it back up later, mainly because Byond is bugging again.

EDIT- Well, I'll just add stuff, since no one is saying anything. Hope you guys like what I plan to do. Going to be harder for traitors now, thats for sure.
