It's a shame. I'm wondering if the Space Carp code could be optimized however, as they seem to do very little to warrant those kinds of cpu cycles.

Carp are not causing the lag on the server. KG believes its bandwidth related.

4: Telecomms would be the biggest pain the ass. With all the changes that have been going on with it I have no idea if it is even possible to reproduce, and if it is I have no idea if the stations can even talk to each other. Ether way, that would be your biggest technical hurdle most likely.

To answer this shortly, yes it is possible. I think all you need to build is a telecomms relay on the desired z level to gain comms (and then link it with the hub back on the station with a multitool), but I am not certain if more equipment is needed

KG, I wouldnt mind being put on the coder list just to push some minor tweaks that I could do (like turning down the frequency of carp and vine events, for example)

PM me your email, and I'll get you added.

Also, add more doggam newscasters. There's only like 5 of them in the entire station, so news is essentialy useless because nobody ever knows that there is more news. If they were more common, you could post in feeds to spread news.

I'm not much of a mapper, so if someone would like to tackle this, feel free.

Done, and I could do that, but I am hesitant against doing so because reconciling map changes whenever we want to incorporate changes TG makes is extremely hard (as in you will probably have to do it again)

edit: I spawned more than twice as many carp that was on the server at the time people said deleting them fixed lag on a local server I ran, and I had minimal lag. Carp may be contributing to lag (and I still intend to change the frequency in which they come) but are not the source of the lag.

Goonstation has their own codebase and should not be considered within the context of what content is in the TG code

edit: KG, I would suggest updating the map again because updates r5779 and r5780 corrects some mistakes they did when they altered the map yesterday

Oh, and votes are broken. very broken.

Votes are only broken PRE-ROUND. Let a round start then run votes to your heart's content. Also, looking to add admins?

I PM-d KG earlier and am waiting for him to respond.
I dunno yet.

If you're still talking about voting being borked, its a problem with the TG code, not with the server. I should have clarified that in my earlier post.

Eh, I've had a few instances of lag on the server, but since SS13 is CPU capped (and that is what is causing the lag server side) there isnt much that can be done about it

i got banned for "friendly slaving" too, even thought the only virus i had on someone was not done in a friendly way. Probably means I am done with SH too

could someone PM me the irc password please?
