The problem is that Cassord did a half-ass job with fixing the pixel_x and pixel_y problem.

The trigger SHOULD be something similar to:

Code: [Select]
"cty" = (/obj/effect/step_trigger/teleporter/random{affect_ghosts = 1; name = "escapeshuttle_leave"; teleport_x = 25; teleport_x_offset = 245; teleport_y = 25; teleport_y_offset = 245; teleport_z = 6; teleport_z_offset = 6},/turf/space/transit/north/shuttlespace_ns15,/area)
This is a snippet from Bay's map. The problem is laziness. Cassord replaced every instance of step with pixel when he SHOULD have replaced every instance of step_x and step_y with pixel_x and pixel_y. But he just replaced all the words 'step' with 'pixel' which lead to this.

Code: [Select]
"aIZ" = (/obj/effect/pixel_trigger/teleporter/random{affect_ghosts = 1; name = "escapeshuttle_leave"; teleport_x = 25; teleport_x_offset = 245; teleport_y = 25; teleport_y_offset = 245; teleport_z = 6; teleport_z_offset = 6},/turf/space/transit/north/shuttlespace_ns1,/area)
Notice how it says /obj/effect/pixel_trigger instead of /obj/effect/step_trigger? Welcome to breaking everything.

that was my doing actually

i couldn't figure out how the forget the script had replaced "step_" with "teleport_" when the problem apparently was that there was a "step_trigger" bit at the start

i can fix this easily enough, not sure why i thought it wouldn't be a problem in the first place
sorry cassord, guess i'm just a moron

I would suggest getting a fresh copy of the map and attempting to fix it from there. Lord knows what else the script may have broken. Byond code is extremely wonky.

Not sure why you need a script anyway. Just open the .dmm in Notepad++ and replace what you need to there. That's how I did it.

so yeah don't blame cassord anymore

i made the script to do all the replacing. the server is run off of a headless linux vps, so i can't exactly just pop open sublime or another text editor and do that, i have to do it programmatically with a terminal.

Parsing file.
Writing file.
and yes, i updated the script (which downloads and parses simultaneously, as well as overwriting the old file - it saves me like 6 steps) and will just get cassord's latest again

Ah, Linux. Alright, that explains why. Just curious. I've never dealt with working on Linux before.

Sorry for the dumbass question, but what is SS13?

server is updated with a properly working errorless version of cassords latest map
any actual ingame errors (walls blocking off a hallway for example) are definitely his fault
Sorry for the dumbass question, but what is SS13?
10 pounds of awesome in a laggy 2 pound bag

for the first time since launching the server a week ago, i'll be joining the server

well this sucks, moving seems to be... jerky, not smooth like on baystation

is that normal for tg or is it the step_ error?
fixed after reboot

okay well the step stuff is fixed so send me the fixed version of the map because something is wrong, terribly wrong.

Under the captain's quarters door
is just
space



Yeah I updated the server with that hours ago

never played SS13, but i saw a few pictures of it, it looks interesting but for some reason i don't know where to get it :[

1. Go here.
2. Create an account.
3. Download Byond.
4. Join a server (I'd recommend a well populated server for first start, nothing too high though).
There you go.

no you didn't.
