| This game is about survival. Do not use this as an excuse to be terrible! All actions are recorded. The Administrators can and will ban you on sight for breaking the rules.

|}


Worn clothing requires at least 4 sprites. '''Front, back and sides.''' The laying down sprite is exactly like the front sprite.
==Read the Rules==
You then need a separate sprite for the inventory, which will also be used for the clothes on the ground.


Byond draws sprites one layer on top of the other; as an example, if you're drawing a jumpsuit, remember that it must be narrower than the spacesuit sprite. Or a few pixels from the jumpsuit will show all around the edge spacesuit.  
Admitting that you didn't read the rules when questioned by an admin about something you did won't get you out of trouble.  




Here's a quick look at the devices scattered across the room.
==No racial or homophobic slurs.==


'''Chem Dispenser''': Dispenses a whole slew of chemicals. Use a [[Beaker]] (or any liquid-bearing container) on it to insert it, then use the machine to pick chemicals. When you're done, eject the beaker from the menu.
It doesn't matter who you are or how you talk to your friends. Racially and homophobic loaded words are not allowed.
Don't call people names, or use them in some ironic remark. Don't put them in your character name. It will get you warned or banned.


'''Heating/Cooling Unit''': Used to chill or heat containers. Use the menu to set a target temperature, and press Activate to start the heating/cooling process.
==No creepiness; no sexual jokes.==


'''ChemMaster 3000''': Used to turn chemicals into [[Pill|pills]]. After you insert a container, you can choose to remove unwanted chemicals (isolate removes all chemicals BUT the selected one). When creating pills, you'll be prompted to choose how many units are in each pill, as well as the label (which will show up as "<what you wrote> pill"). Pill bottles work differently from containers. To get a pill, click on the pill bottle with an empty hand while it is in your other hand. You can also dump the whole bottle out on the floor by clicking the bottle with the hand holding it.  One great thing about the ChemMaster is the ability to also get a short summary of any chemical.  This may or may not actually describe their functions in a way that makes sense.
This includes rape jokes, or roleplaying sex, sexual harassment/assault, or rape. Basically, if it involves your genitals it doesn't belong here.  


'''ValuChimp''': Dispenses [[monkey]]s, a valuable commodity for the modern scienist.
==Gameplay rules.==


== Ok so how do I make napalm? ==
Don't talk with other players outside of the game.


A lot of recipes are very similar to their real-world counterparts. There are also many sci-fi concoctions to discover and experiment with. And, if all else fails, add plasma, since it'll usually make ''something'' happen.
Communications and eavesdropping on other players' conversations are an important part of the game.
If you are playing with friends, talk to them in the game chat.  
Don't use skype, ventrilo or IMs to coordinate or ask for their help.  


=== Common Recipes ===
'''Dylovene = Anti-Toxin'''


{| class="wikitable"
==Don't use multiple accounts.==
|-
 
! Recipe Name !! Recipe !! Effects
When you die in a round, don't reconnect using a different account. You'll have to hope that someone clones you or turns you into a borg.
|-
 
| Alkysine || Dylovene + Chlorine + Nitrogen || Treats brain damage
If you have siblings or friends playing on different computers in the same house/network use adminhelp to let us know and not be accidentally banned as a multikeyer.
|-
Even in these instances, you can't play a round with two different accounts on the same computer.
| Antihol || Ethanol + Dylovene || Cures drunkedness
 
|-
==Don't grief.==
| Benzocyatizine || Hydrogen + Carbon + Mercury || Removes reagents from body, causes large amounts of toxin damage in large doses without putting into a drinking container
 
|-
Don't start fights to have an excuse for killing people.
| Bicaridine || Inaprovaline + Carbon || Heals brute damage
Don't upload laws that allow the AI to murder unless you are a traitor.
|-
Don't cause workplace accidents (fires, explosions, harmful gas leaks) to injure or kill other players.
| Cryoxadone || Dexalin + Water + Oxygen || Heals various kinds of damage at cold temperatures
 
|-
When acting in self defense, try not to escalate fights. Incapacitating people or calling security is better than murdering them.
| Dexalin || Plasma + Oxygen || Prevents and treats oxygen deprivation
 
|-
Don't roleplay a psychopath to have an excuse for killing or harming people.
| Dexalin Plus || Dexalin + Iron + Carbon || Dexalin but better
 
|-
Don't explode bombs or release harmful chemicals on the escape shuttle just because the round is about to end.
| Hyronalin || Radium + Anti-Toxins || Heals radiation poisoning
You can do this once the shuttle has left and the round has finished
|-
 
| Imidazoline || Hydrogen + Carbon + Anti-toxin || Heals flash blindness
==Don't carry grudges across rounds.==
|-
 
| Kelotane || Silicon + Carbon || Heals being burned or really cold
Don't take revenge for something that happened in a previous round. Every round is separate, or we wouldn't hear the end of players settling their scores from previous games.
|-
 
| Leporazine || Silicon + Plasma || Stabilizes body temperature
==Don't metagame.==
|-
 
| Space Cleaner || Water + Hydrogen + Nitrogen || Cleans stuff
Don't use your knowledge of game mechanics to your advantage.
|-
For example, you know this game has traitors. When you see a chef breaking into chemistry, do not automatically call him a traitor because he's somewhere he doesn't belong.
| Tricordrazine || Anti-Toxins + Inaprovaline or Heat Cryoxadone || Treats most kinds of injury except toxin damage
 
|-
When the round is Nuke, don't enter the syndicate shuttle unless you know for certain (through a pinpointer or the radio) that the Syndicates have the Auth Disk and are arming the nuke.
|}
A last showdown in the shuttle is fine, invading it in any other case is not.
 
Reply when an admin questions you.
From time to time an admin is going to ask about some actions you performed in the game.
Explain what you did, and try to keep a civil tone. Sarcasm is not well received.
 
==Don't impersonate admins.==
Just don't.
 
 
==Punishments==
 
===Warning===
 
Simply being told to quit what you're doing ingame, either by direct PM or a "voice in your head". You'll probably get punished harder if you ignore a warning.
 
===Muting===
 
Muting stops you from talking on ALL channels.
 
===Prison===
 
Your character will be sent to the Punishment Dimension, where an admin (should) contact you shortly to ask questions. This is just a holding area and not a punishment in itself - if you can satisfy the admin that you weren't being shit, you'll be returned to the station.
 
If you ever get sent here and questioning doesn't occur after a few minutes, adminhelp it.
 
===Death and/or Humiliation===
 
Usually reserved for something annoying but not quite bannable, such as incessantly whining. If you're not reduced to a pile of mushy gibs or struck dead on the spot you can expect to be made fat, stupid, a lizard, or being the subject of an announcement marking you for the crew to beat down. In these cases, nagging adminhelp your fate will only make things worse.
 
===Job Ban===
 
It will prevent you from selecting certain jobs.
These are placed when you use a job to harm other people without being a traitor. Or take a high responsibility job without doing the minimum effort to help the crew; like a captain that forgets to carry the Nuke Authentication Disk, or an AI that will ignore someone's pleas for help.
 
If you don't like certain jobs so much that you don't even want the risk of being randomly selected for them, you can request a job ban on them. Requested job bans are not punitive measures, so don't worry about them becoming a black mark against you.
 
===Server Ban===
 
Makes you unable to log onto the server until the ban expires. Pretty self-explanatory.
 
Permabans will never expire until successfully appealed [http://forum.ss13.co/ here].
 
 
==Things to Know==
 
===Warnings Aren't Required===
 
Don't complain that you didn't get a warning before being hit with punishment. If you're being sufficiently shit you may earn a straight ban.
 
===Different Admins have Different Styles===
 
Some admins enforce some rules more harshly than others.
You should never break any of the rules, but if you do don't complain that you were on the receiving end of a stricter admin's wrath.
 
===Punishments are Case by Case===
 
How much someone else got punished for the same offense doesn't matter to your own punishment. Unless there's a flagrant difference between the two (example: Jimmy Poo got 30 minutes for hitting someone with an extinguisher, and you got a permaban.)
 
===Complaining about an admin.===
 
If you think you were punished without merit (or if you think someone else's treatment was bullshit) then go to the [http://forum.ss13.co/viewforum.php?f=2 Unban Appeals] section for requesting a review of your ban, or the [http://forum.ss13.co/viewforum.php?f=3 Admin Complaints] section for calling out bad admin behavior.
 
When arguing your case, try to be reasonable and if you did break a rule, don't try to weasel out of it by saying dumb things like "I didn't mean "harsh word against minorities" that way", or by denying everything. Admins have logs and they will call you out on your actions if necessary.
 
 
===Hilarity Clause===
 
If you make a transgression against the rules but do so in a manner which is incredibly entertaining or funny, youmight avoid punishment for your actions.
 
Bear in mind that "funny" is entirely relative and it is purely up to the admins to decide if you were funny enough or not - also bear in mind that we've seen many things a lot of times before. If you're going to shoot for this rule, be original. Copycatting someone else's shtick won't end well for you.
 
===Sploded Clause===
 
If you have been a consistently terrible player for a long time, the admins can ban you on your history alone, and do not need any further excuse or cause.
This rule generally requires several admins to be in agreement that you are utter shit before taking any action, you have to get on a lot of people's nerves.
 
Named after Sploded, aka Dr. Von Overdose, a terminally shitty player who would constantly grief and fuck things up for other players while adminhelping anything that happened to him. This is not something to be proud of!
 
===Lord Doom Clause===
 
The rules do not apply to Lord Doom. This works both ways.
 
He can do anything he wants to you, but on the other hand you can also do anything you want to him with no fear of consequences. This only applies to the person with the BYOND key Lord Doom and never anyone else. Especially not you. Don't try it.
 
 
==Asking for help==
 
===Adminhelp===
Sends a message to the admins connected to the server and an irc channel where offline admins can read and intervene if necessary.
Use this if you need help because a bug froze you. Or if you think someone who murdered or seriously injured you is not a traitor.
When you have a doubt on the rules or want to ask clearance for actions you're going to take, it is a good idea to shoot a message.
 
If you are asking help about someone who is not a traitor, you might only receive a generic reply, to prevent a traitor from being revealed before the round's end.
 
===Mentorhelp===
Sends message to a bunch of players who have been around long enough to know many less straightforward game mechanics and jobs.
Use this if you have questions on your job, or if you need help with your traitor, wizard, changeling powers.
Mentors are trusted not to hunt you down if you reveal that you are a traitor.
Don't forget to use the radio chat for generic answers, most of the time people will have an answer. Mentors are not always around.

Reply when an admin questions you. From time to time an admin is going to ask about some actions you performed in the game. Explain what you did, and try to keep a civil tone. Sarcasm is not well received.

Don't impersonate admins.

Just don't.


Punishments

Warning

Simply being told to quit what you're doing ingame, either by direct PM or a "voice in your head". You'll probably get punished harder if you ignore a warning.

Muting

Muting stops you from talking on ALL channels.

Prison

Your character will be sent to the Punishment Dimension, where an admin (should) contact you shortly to ask questions. This is just a holding area and not a punishment in itself - if you can satisfy the admin that you weren't being shit, you'll be returned to the station.

If you ever get sent here and questioning doesn't occur after a few minutes, adminhelp it.

Death and/or Humiliation

Usually reserved for something annoying but not quite bannable, such as incessantly whining. If you're not reduced to a pile of mushy gibs or struck dead on the spot you can expect to be made fat, stupid, a lizard, or being the subject of an announcement marking you for the crew to beat down. In these cases, nagging adminhelp your fate will only make things worse.

Job Ban

It will prevent you from selecting certain jobs. These are placed when you use a job to harm other people without being a traitor. Or take a high responsibility job without doing the minimum effort to help the crew; like a captain that forgets to carry the Nuke Authentication Disk, or an AI that will ignore someone's pleas for help.

If you don't like certain jobs so much that you don't even want the risk of being randomly selected for them, you can request a job ban on them. Requested job bans are not punitive measures, so don't worry about them becoming a black mark against you.

Server Ban

Makes you unable to log onto the server until the ban expires. Pretty self-explanatory.

Permabans will never expire until successfully appealed here.


Things to Know

Warnings Aren't Required

Don't complain that you didn't get a warning before being hit with punishment. If you're being sufficiently shit you may earn a straight ban.

Different Admins have Different Styles

Some admins enforce some rules more harshly than others. You should never break any of the rules, but if you do don't complain that you were on the receiving end of a stricter admin's wrath.

Punishments are Case by Case

How much someone else got punished for the same offense doesn't matter to your own punishment. Unless there's a flagrant difference between the two (example: Jimmy Poo got 30 minutes for hitting someone with an extinguisher, and you got a permaban.)

Complaining about an admin.

If you think you were punished without merit (or if you think someone else's treatment was bullshit) then go to the Unban Appeals section for requesting a review of your ban, or the Admin Complaints section for calling out bad admin behavior.

When arguing your case, try to be reasonable and if you did break a rule, don't try to weasel out of it by saying dumb things like "I didn't mean "harsh word against minorities" that way", or by denying everything. Admins have logs and they will call you out on your actions if necessary.


Hilarity Clause

If you make a transgression against the rules but do so in a manner which is incredibly entertaining or funny, youmight avoid punishment for your actions.

Bear in mind that "funny" is entirely relative and it is purely up to the admins to decide if you were funny enough or not - also bear in mind that we've seen many things a lot of times before. If you're going to shoot for this rule, be original. Copycatting someone else's shtick won't end well for you.

Sploded Clause

If you have been a consistently terrible player for a long time, the admins can ban you on your history alone, and do not need any further excuse or cause. This rule generally requires several admins to be in agreement that you are utter shit before taking any action, you have to get on a lot of people's nerves.

Named after Sploded, aka Dr. Von Overdose, a terminally shitty player who would constantly grief and fuck things up for other players while adminhelping anything that happened to him. This is not something to be proud of!

Lord Doom Clause

The rules do not apply to Lord Doom. This works both ways.

He can do anything he wants to you, but on the other hand you can also do anything you want to him with no fear of consequences. This only applies to the person with the BYOND key Lord Doom and never anyone else. Especially not you. Don't try it.


Asking for help

Adminhelp

Sends a message to the admins connected to the server and an irc channel where offline admins can read and intervene if necessary. Use this if you need help because a bug froze you. Or if you think someone who murdered or seriously injured you is not a traitor. When you have a doubt on the rules or want to ask clearance for actions you're going to take, it is a good idea to shoot a message.

If you are asking help about someone who is not a traitor, you might only receive a generic reply, to prevent a traitor from being revealed before the round's end.

Mentorhelp

Sends message to a bunch of players who have been around long enough to know many less straightforward game mechanics and jobs. Use this if you have questions on your job, or if you need help with your traitor, wizard, changeling powers. Mentors are trusted not to hunt you down if you reveal that you are a traitor. Don't forget to use the radio chat for generic answers, most of the time people will have an answer. Mentors are not always around.
