This differs somewhat from what the game itself shows you. The in-game Spacebux pop-up that appears on round-end displays <code>(Part-Timer or Full-Timer Modifier * Base Spacebux Wage * 2)</code> as simply "Base Wage".

===Base Spacebux Wage===
The Base Space Wage all these modifier and penalties change is based ''solely'' on your [[Job]], and, coincidentally, it happens to match the in-game credits payouts the job receives.(but not always.) In other words, the [[Traits|Unionized]] or [[Traits|Pawn Star]] traits will not affect Spacebux earnings and neither will the station payroll running out or you getting a raise or pay cut. If you transfer out of a job, you'll get the Base Spacebux Wage of your original role. As with in-game salaries, generally, the harder the job/the more responsibilities it requires, the higher the Spacebux wage.

If you die, regardless of the circumstances of your death, you'll get the Base Spacebux Wage of your original [[Job]]. If you're cloned, [[Chemicals#Strange Reagent|scientifically]]/[[Admin|magically]] revived, absorbed into a [[Changeling]] hivemind, and/or choose to [[Critter#Ghost Critter|Respawn as a Animal]], you'll still get the Base Spacebux Wage of your original job.

====Did Not Escape====
====Did Not Escape====
This penalty takes 75% of your Base Spacebux Wage if you didn't make it to shuttle or weren't at CentComm at the end of the round. Unlike with certain [[Traitor_Objectives#Escaping|antagonist escape objectives]], the game actually tends to be pretty consistent on what counts as having escaped. Being in the CentCom area outside of the shuttle counts as having escaped, so you don't have to stay or wait on the shuttle in order to qualify. If it ever messes up, kindly report it to the coders by posting about it in the [https://forum.ss13.co/forumdisplay.php?fid=9 Bug Reports subforums.]

Being in the CentCom area outside of the shuttle counts as having escaped, so you don't have to stay or wait on the shuttle in order to qualify. If it ever messes up, kindly report it to the coders via the Bug Report button in the top left of your game window.


One thing's for certain though: Did Not Escape doesn't factor in whether you were actually alive or not. If you die and your corpse was dragged onto the shuttle, you'll count as having escaped and won't get the penalty. Same business if you die on the shuttle, but aren't gibbed. If you ''are'' gibbed, or, as a borg, blown apart on the shuttle (or really anywhere), then you ''don't'' count as having Escaped and will get penalized. However, if you're absorbed by a [[Changeling]], you'll count as escaped, so long as said [[Changeling]] escaped.

Line 128: Line 169:
Also, if the round type has another end condition besides the Escape Shuttle docking at CentCom, you don't get this penalty. For example, if you played a Revolution, Nuke, or Blob round, you're exempt from this penalty. If you're the [[AI]], regardless of the round type, you're exempt as well.

In addition, being in [[General Objects#Industrial Cryogenics Unit|cryostorage]] counts as not escaping. So does being a [[Ghostdrone]].

===Bonuses===
===Bonuses===
====Crew Objective Bonus====
====Crew Objective Bonus====
You can earn bonuses to your Spacebux payout by completing your objectives. For every cleared objective you gain +50 Spacebux as well as an additional 100 for completing all of them on top that. For example, if you're a janitor, and your objectives are to keep the Bar, Medbay and the Brig spotless, and you happen to complete them all, you'll earn $150 for the objectives and then $100. These bonuses do not get deducted by penalties.

These bonuses do not get deducted by penalties.


====Pilot Bonus====
====Pilot Bonus====
On every escape shuttle, there's an extra fancy-looking blue chair in the "cockpit" area, usually somewhere near the shuttle console. If you're buckled into this chair when the shuttle arrives at Central Command, you get a snazzy extra 500 Spacebux. And you don't even have to do any actual piloting!

====Ass Day Bonus====
For braving the <strike>horrors</strike> wonders that await you on every 13th day of the month on the main Goonstation server (but not on Goonstation Roleplay), you get twice as much Spacebux as you normally would! Note that the Part-Time/Full-Time thing still applies, and the Spacebux is doubled ''after'' the penalties are imposed. So if you stay for the whole round and live (ha!) to make it to the shuttle (ha ha!), you'll get rewarded with twice the Spacebux for the trouble!


==Spend It==
==Spend It==
Those Spacebux are only an intermediate reward. These trinkets and baubles are Goonstation's real gift to you for playing. You buy these at a special screen that appears when you decide to press the Declare Ready button to you join a round (and in the case of late joins, right when you're deciding what job to sign up as).

You can only buy one of these per a round, but they'll persist with you so long as you escape on the shuttle alive. If you're playing a [[Antagonist]], went into the [[General Objects#Industrial Cryogenics Unit|cryo unit]], and/or playing nuke/blob/any game mode that can be ended without a shuttle call, you'll still keep the held item. Most of these will spawn in your backpack or similar, sort of like an extra trinket item. [[Nuclear Operative]]s do not get their Spacebux items.

Latest revision as of 06:25, 7 October 2024

A fun little out-of-game system that rewards you for in-game time with funny out-of-game money for cosmetic things like shiny top hats, funky instruments, and the ability to go limbless. Consider it one of the many ways Goonstation thanks you for spending your precious time here.

Earn It

Spacebux earnings follow a simple rule:

(Part-Timer or Full-Timer Modifier * Base Spacebux Wage * 2) - Penalties + Bonuses

This differs somewhat from what the game itself shows you. The in-game Spacebux pop-up that appears on round-end displays (Part-Timer or Full-Timer Modifier * Base Spacebux Wage * 2) as simply "Base Wage".

Part-Timer or Full-Timer Modifier

Roughly a percentage of Base Spacebux Salary based on when you joined the round, or, in another way, how much time you'd spent playing through the round. If you join before roundstart or within minutes after, essentially sticking around for the whole round, you get the Full-Timer wage, and your Modifier will be 100%. In other words, your Base Spacebux Wage will be unaffected. If you join 8 or so minutes after the round starts however, you get the Part-Timer wage, which will reflect the amount of total round time in which you were present relative to the total length of the round. For example, if you join at 10 minutes and the round ends at 20 minutes, your modifier is 50%.

Base Spacebux Wage

The Base Space Wage all these modifier and penalties change is based solely on your Job, and, coincidentally, it happens to match the in-game credits payouts the job receives (but not always). In other words, the Unionized or Pawn Star traits will not affect Spacebux earnings and neither will the station payroll running out or you getting a raise or pay cut. If you transfer out of a job, you'll get the Base Spacebux Wage of your original role. As with in-game salaries, generally, the harder the job/the more responsibilities it requires, the higher the Spacebux wage.

If you die, regardless of the circumstances of your death, you'll get the Base Spacebux Wage of your original Job. If you're cloned, scientifically/magically revived, absorbed into a Changeling hivemind, and/or choose to Respawn as a Animal, you'll still get the Base Spacebux Wage of your original job.

Penalties

As of now, there is one main penalty: Did Not Escape. While there is technically a penalty based on Station Grade, it doesn't actually take any Spacebux away now. Traitors, blobs, wizards, and all the other Antagonists do not suffer any of these penalties here regardless of whether they escape or live. They also keep their held item.

Did Not Escape

This penalty takes 75% of your Base Spacebux Wage if you didn't make it to shuttle or weren't at CentComm at the end of the round. Unlike with certain antagonist escape objectives, the game actually tends to be pretty consistent on what counts as having escaped. Being in the CentCom area outside of the shuttle counts as having escaped, so you don't have to stay or wait on the shuttle in order to qualify. If it ever messes up, kindly report it to the coders via the Bug Report button in the top left of your game window.

One thing's for certain though: Did Not Escape doesn't factor in whether you were actually alive or not. If you die and your corpse was dragged onto the shuttle, you'll count as having escaped and won't get the penalty. Same business if you die on the shuttle, but aren't gibbed. If you are gibbed, or, as a borg, blown apart on the shuttle (or really anywhere), then you don't count as having Escaped and will get penalized. However, if you're absorbed by a Changeling, you'll count as escaped, so long as said Changeling escaped.

Also, if the round type has another end condition besides the Escape Shuttle docking at CentCom, you don't get this penalty. For example, if you played a Revolution, Nuke, or Blob round, you're exempt from this penalty. If you're the AI, regardless of the round type, you're exempt as well.

In addition, being in cryostorage counts as not escaping. So does being a Ghostdrone.

Bonuses

Crew Objective Bonus

You can earn bonuses to your Spacebux payout by completing your objectives. For every objective you clear, you gain +50 Spacebux. If you complete all your objectives, you earn an additional 100 Spacebux. For example, if you're a janitor, and your objectives are to keep the Bar, Medbay and the Brig spotless, and you happen to complete them all, you'll earn $150 for the objectives and then $100. These bonuses do not get deducted by penalties.

Pilot Bonus

On every escape shuttle, there's an extra fancy-looking blue chair in the "cockpit" area, usually somewhere near the shuttle console. If you're buckled into this chair when the shuttle arrives at Central Command, you get a snazzy extra 500 Spacebux. And you don't even have to do any actual piloting!

Spend It

Those Spacebux are only an intermediate reward. These trinkets and baubles are Goonstation's real gift to you for playing. You buy these at a special screen that appears when you decide to press the Declare Ready button to you join a round (and in the case of late joins, right when you're deciding what job to sign up as).

You can only buy one of these per a round, but they'll persist with you so long as you escape on the shuttle alive. If you're playing a Antagonist, went into the cryo unit, and/or playing nuke/blob/any game mode that can be ended without a shuttle call, you'll still keep the held item. Most of these will spawn in your backpack or similar, sort of like an extra trinket item. Nuclear Operatives do not get their Spacebux items.

Place your first pixel, then click on the canvas again with the other pixel pass to place it down. Note that you can have multiple pixel passes, obtained by totally legit methods.
AlternateJumpsuitsV2.gif
Alternate Jumpsuit
$1500 You spawn wearing an alternate version of the jumpsuit associated with your job; if your job spawns with special outerwear (e.g. Geneticist), it'll also become the alternate version. It'll have the same design, but the colors will be opposite/complementary to the usual ones or otherwise just plain silly. The Botanists get red jumpsuits with blue stripes, the Chief Engineer, Engineers, Miners, and Quartermasters get purple uniforms, the Head of Security and their Security Officer underlings get blue jackets, things like that.

There's one for basically every job except Captain, Bartender, Clown, Chaplain, Detective, and all the various roles that are late-join only, like Radio Host or Technical Trainee.

AltClownMasksNew.gif AltClownSuitsNew.gif AltClownShoesNew.gif
Alternate Clown Suit
$200 A clown mask, suit, and shoes set in a different color scheme, available in yellow, pink, blue and, purple. Note that you have to join/spawn as a Clown to get the outfit. If you spawn/join as another job, you won't get the outfit, though you will get the Spacebux refunded.
RucksackYellow-32x32.png RucksackRed-32x32.png
Rucksack
$1400 A backpack reskin (i.e. it has no mechanical advantage over regular backpacks) that randomly comes in red or yellow. It's inspired by backpacks from Fjallraven, a company that markets itself to outdoorsy, adventure-loving types—in other words, perfect for Botanists, Ranchers, and Scientists. If you have the Fish medal, you can also use its medal reward to turn it into its satchel version.
Randoseru.png
Randoseru
$1500 Also a backpack reskin. Quintessentially Space Japanese: modestly-sized, rather inconspicuous, and designed for schoolchildren. If you have the Fish medal, you can use its medal reward to make it a satchel reskin instead.
TravelBackpack.png
Travel Backpack
$1600 A backpack reskin that takes cues from Anello backpacks. The "travel backpack" name is simply a style branding; it doesn't provide more space or weigh less than standard backpacks or whatever, but the aesthetics are perfect for Tourists and other people who love Hawaiian shirts and things that blend red, white, and blue together. It has a satchel variant; just use the Fish medal reward on it (using medal rewards is explained here.)
Itabags.gif
Itabags
$1600 Shiny small Itabags. The "Ita" part is Japanese for PAIN, because getting these probably causes pain to the backpack and pain to your wallet. Thankfully, the satchel version is cruelty-free and comes with no extra charge. To obtain it, you simply use the medal reward associated with the Fish medal on the itabag.
BrownBackpack.png
Brown Backpack
$500 Your standard backpack (it's even just called "backpack" in-game) but in a rustic shade of brown. If you have the Fish medal, you can use its medal reward to turn it into its satchel version.
StuddedBackpack.png
Studded Backpack
$1500 Your average backpack, but, like, edgier? If you use the medal reward for the Fish medal on it, you can get yourself the satchel version.
NTBackpackV3.png
NT Backpack
$600 Instead of the dull light-grey backpack, you spawn with a stylish dark matte grey and blue one. You can even convert it into a NT satchel with the Fish medal reward.
PotatoV3.png
No Limbs
$10000 You start with no limbs at all, so you move veeeery slowly unless you have someone to drag you around, have somebody give you new limbs, or hitch a ride.
JohnBillNew64.png
Space Diner Patron
$5000 You spawn somewhere in the Space/Sea Diner. If you want to get to the main ship/station, you might want to board the nearby Space Pods/minisubs in the parking area. If you're on a map set in outer space, you can also try calling the Mining Shuttle through the mining shuttle console.
ArrivalMissile-32x64.png
Missile Arrival
$20000 Instead of simply spawning in like a normal person, you enter via a "human capsule missile" that crashes into a room with harmless sparks and debris, similar to Oshan. You can end up in any random place on the station, so long as it normally doesn't block teleportation (i.e. you can't end up in Sec, but you can wind up in the Captain's Quarters), and if it somehow "misses" the ship/station, the missile will try to land again. To counter the fact that you'll be suffocating en-route, you also spawn wearing a breath mask and an emergency O2 tank in your backpack.
LunchBoxesV2.gif
Lunchbox
$600 You start with an adorable lunchbox (essentially a reskinned box) with three random foods and a note with a pop culture reference. Yummy.
Sparrow.pngRobin.png
Lil Bird Ghost Creature
$1000 When you die and choose to respawn as a ghost critter, you will either spawn as a tiny little sparrow or robin. Both are color-keyed, meaning that they'll match your character's colors!
Figures.gif BoogieBot.png
Alt Ghost Critter
$1000 When you die and choose to respawn as a ghost critter, you may start out as a boogiebot or a toy figure.
GoldenGhostV2.png
Golden Ghost
$1500 Your ghostly form is piss yellow brass old gold, with a tasteful golden glitter. Makes fantastic non-human ghosts.
FruitHat.png
Fruit Hat
$150 Guaranteed to be free of the ghost of Carmen Miranda.
PrideOMaticJumpsuitV2.gif
Pride-O-Matic Jumpsuit
$1200 You spawn with a pride-o-Matic jumpsuit, a pride jumpsuit that cycles through other pride jumpsuit color schemes when used in-hand. Celebrate tolerance.
Hoodie.png HoodieBlue.png
Hoodie
$1500 Buy the option to wear casual wear to work, when just finding a tracksuit isn't for you. Game randomly picks between the blue and orange versions.
WaldoOutfit.png
Stripe Outfit
$1400 A relic of a (gladly) bygone era.
Falsemustache.png
Discount Fake Moustache
$500 Won't hide your identity like a real Syndie 'stache and you can't twirl it, but it'll still provide the same villainous style.
GoldenTopHatV2.png
Golden Top Hat
$900 The next stage of cranial adornment, suitable for the modern space-faring gentleman/lady. It even sparkles like real gold!
WhiteHeels.png
Dancin' Shoes
$2000 With these suave shoes, you can dance more often, since they reduce the cooldown on the *dance emote.
Frog.png
Adopt-a-Frog
$6000 A frog that is now yours to keep. On round start, it will spawn right beside yourself and you will be prompted to name it whatever you so desire.
Heartcandygif.gif
Candy Heart Delivery
$2500 A randomly-chosen crew member in the manifest receives a shipment with a single candy heart (i.e. not a box of them, just one) labeled "candy heart (to: [their name] from: [your name])". It's not sent directly to them. Rather, when you spawn in, the game sends a crate, labeled "special delivery ([their name])", with it to the inbound belt in the Cargo Bay (for Nadir, the crate's in the transcepton array queue.), for the QMs to deliver. If something goes wrong, the game will try to spawn it directly in Cargo Bay, or failing that, a random room on the ship/station.
AlohamatonV2-32x32.png
Alohamaton Skin
$4000 Cyborg only (if you respawn as something not a Cyborg, you'll get refunded the Spacebux.) When you spawn as a Cyborg, you'll look like a certain automaton on vacation. This also turns your *snap emotes (Hotkey: Ctrl + Z) into something weird.
FedoraV2-32x32.png
AI Hat
$1000 AI only, as the tin says. (if you don't spawn as AI, you'll get refunded the Spacebux.) When you spawn as an AI, you'll start wearing a neat hat. Draws from list of all possible hats!

Transfer It

SpacebuxToken.png

Giving your farty spaceperson funny money to someone is easy as slipping on the Clown's banana peel. To transfer your Spacebux to someone, find an ATM and choose to transfer your Spacebux. When prompted, enter an amount and select a recipient, shown as a list of BYOND usernames of everyone on the server. After a confirmation prompt, the Spacebux should instantly be transferred over. Easy as that.

If you don't know the BYOND username of the person you want to grant your Spacebux to or simply prefer a more tangible means of currency exchange, you can also use an ATM to dispense a Spacebux token (shown above) worth a custom amount of Spacebux, via similar steps as above. Thanks to imcoder magic, you can redeem a token simply by clicking on ATM while holding one--no need to mess with PINs or cards. However, that also means muggers can take your token and cash it in themselves, so keep them safe!
