'''Gamemode in rotation'''


[[File:Sword.gif]] The following is a tutorial on the basics of treachery -- for the game mode, click [[Game_Mode#Traitor|here]]. For information on the Syndicate organization, see [[The Syndicate]].
An unpaid debt. A score to be settled. Maybe you were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Whatever the reasons, [[the Syndicate]] has selected you to infiltrate Space Station 13. Your objective is whatever the hell they tell you to do, you're not the one calling the shots here, ''friend''. Time to put on your big boy pants, read up on your objectives and do whatever it takes. Or don't. [[Terminology#Job Ban|It's up]] [[Terminology#Ban|to you.]]
 
Alright, you forgot to switch off Be Traitor and now you are stuck as the traitor and have no idea what you're doing. This is a problem because a bad traitor means a bad round for everybody. But!, you plea, I had the option off and I'm still the traitor!  For some reason if everyone has the option off or the game just hates you, becoming the traitor is possible. Just adminhelp it, admins hate shit rounds as much as everyone else and you won't get banned for it unless you are an insufferable cunt.
 
==The Basics==
==The Basics==
After you've familiarized yourself with [[robust|robusting]], it’s time to start sowing discord and chaos. The first thing to note as the traitor are your objectives. They are always kept in the Notes command, and it’s a good idea to check that when a round starts because some early game spam can push your objectives off of the chat!

For whatever reason you've decided to sell out the people you live and work with, most likely for personal gain. You will be given a number of dangerous goals by your new [[Syndicate]] employer which you must complete.
For whatever reason you've decided to sell out the people you live and work with, most likely for personal gain. You will be given a number of dangerous goals by your new [[Syndicate]] employer which you must complete. Objectives can be seen on the "status" tab, and will turn green once complete. Should you complete your objectives and still want more to do, pray to the [[Terminology#Admin|gods]] for additional objectives.
 
===[[High-risk items|Grand Theft]]===
===[[High-risk items|Grand Theft]]===
Congratulations, you have one of the most varied in difficulty objectives! Time to loot shit! You're going to be asked to steal things like the Medal of Captaincy, Captain's Antique Laser Pistol, an RCD or even the goddamned [[AI]]. Generally your best bet is breaking into wherever the item is or [[robust]]ing whoever has the access for his ID.

See the list of [[High-risk items]] for things you might be tasked to steal.

===Exchange===
You're going to be asked to retrieve a set of secret documents held by another agent on station, and that agent will be asked the same for the documents in your own bag. If all things go well, both of you will meet up and exchange your documents. If they do, you could find yourself with a traitor buddy to work with! However...
There is a small chance that either one of you could get a secret objective asking one to cheat the other guy and run off with both sets of documents. Because of this, you should think about how you want to approach the other guy. Your life could very well be in danger.
Don't forget that meeting in public is just as viable as meeting in maintenance. Provided you cover the documents in something inconspicuous like a box, being surrounded by the public eye would make a good deterrent against any funny business.
Whatever you do, make sure you '''CHECK THAT YOU ACTUALLY HAVE THE DOCUMENTS''' before you walk away. It's possible that he could have swapped out the documents in the folder with blank papers, or the box he just gave you was stuffed with a bomb.
===Assassination===
===Assassination===
This isn't as hard as it seems at first glance. Nine times out of ten, if you act like a good little crew member and hide when the carnage inevitably starts, chances are someone in a fit of panic/rage/boredom probably already killed your target for you. That isn't very sporting though, not to mention extremely boring and unreliable.
If you're lucky (you won't be), someone or something will off your target for you. In that case, congratulations! Sit back, lay low and avoid the tsunami of chaos until you make it to Centcom on the escape shuttle. Wanna tip the scales in your favor? Good on ya. There's a whole smorgasbord of ways to murder someone. You can read up on that [[#Murder_101|below]].
 
You don't need to destroy the body after it's dead. Space Station 13 is one of the few stations installed with experimental genetics technology, so as long as the target is dead when the station is evacuated, you've done your job.
 
See [[#Murder_101|below]] for tips on how to take our your target.


Your target MUST be dead when the shuttle docks at Centcom. Don't forget that your station has experimental cloning technology that may or may not be working, so check whether your objective allows for their revival.

A variation of Assassination where simply preventing them from escaping will also count as a success. Gives you a little more freedom in how you want to approach it.

====Destroy====

Another variation of Assassination, except your target will always be an [[AI]]. A little tougher than your typical target, as the AI is usually installed in a well-fortified location. It's also not as straight-forward as simply uploading a law to have it kill itself, as someone can easily just walk into the AI core and restore it back to full health.

===Extraction===
===Extraction===
Good job, you dirty traitor you! Whatever your other objectives were, you have now successfully completed them! Now, the difficult part, getting off of the station in either the [[Escape Shuttle]] or an [[Escape pod]]. There are two main ways to go about this task, dynamic and stealth. Dynamic players are going to want to cause the damage to get the shuttle called and kill everyone that crosses their path to minimize the chances of others reaching the shuttle. Stealthy players are going to want to hang back and seal off the shuttle arm and make sure that they are the only ones getting on the shuttle.   Most players will need to combine these two ways to succeed, regardless of the escape alone modifier on the escape objective. The more people on the shuttle, the greater chance some MAD BOMBER will kill you or some dude will robust you for no reason or some horrible admin related fatality will occur. How you do this is up to you, but remember that one [[emag]] or 3 different [[Heads of Staff]] IDs will reduce the timer to 10 seconds until departure.

Keep in mind that the Shuttle Brig (area of the main shuttle marked with red flooring) is designed to transport prisoners to Centcom security. You will fail this objective if you are inside when the shuttle docks at Centcom.

===Hijacking===
'''FUCK.''' The Syndicate wants you to hijack the [[Escape Shuttle]] by escaping alone, or with NT loyalists in the shuttle brig. This is going to be so much more difficult. There are two basic ways to approach this problem. The first is to simply [[robust]] anyone who tries to board the shuttle. It seems easy at first, but once you're dealing with a tide of panicked crew trying to escape the singulo/changelings/malfunctioning AI the problem becomes exponentially more difficult. Your second option is to seal off the escape shuttle. Build walls in front of the windows, [[guide_to_hacking|hack]] the shuttle airlocks to drop the bolts and find some way to make the rest of the shuttle inhospitable. A combination of both of these approaches can be sufficient 90% of the time. Don't forget that you can emag the shuttle's console (or swipe it with three different [[Heads of Staff]] IDs) to force the shuttle to launch after a quick 10 second countdown.


===Hijacking===
Critically, an [[emag]] used on the shuttle's communications console will force the shuttle to launch before the standard three minutes have elapsed.  
The Syndicate wants you to hijack the [[Escape Shuttle]] by escaping alone. This is going to be much more difficult. There are two common strategies: robust the shit out of everyone, or seal off the escape shuttle and [[emag]] the console.  Note you may have to combine both of these strategies to escape alone. You will also have to deal with crew attempting to break into and/or hide on the shuttle once they figure out what you're up to. NOTE: The [[escape pod]]s can be ignored for this objective. To win you have to be the only person alive on the [[Escape Shuttle]] when it docks at Centcom.


If all goes well, give yourself a pat on the back, you did it! If not, try to figure out where it all went wrong and improve on that. Escaping alone can be nearly impossible depending on the crew and station's condition and theft can be just as difficult if you are a lowly assistant going after the Hand Teleporter the Captain is carrying around. Sometimes it was not meant to be, but regardless, the only way to keep better is continue practicing!

Sometimes it was not meant to be, but regardless, the only way to keep better is to have fun and continue practicing!


Escaping by yourself or only other traitors will count as a successful hijack.
====Sole Survivor====
Just like hijack, but you need to escape alone! Don’t allow any syndicate members, traitor or otherwise, onboard the emergency shuttle with you.
===Martyrdom===
===Martyrdom===
Exactly what the objective says. Die a glorious death. The key word is "glorious" -- technically you can just off yourself, you disgrace to the Syndicate, but that's no fun.
Exactly what the objective says. Die a glorious death. The key word is "glorious" - you can't just off yourself via suicide command, you disgrace to the Syndicate.
===Assist===
''You won't get this objective through normal means as it requires admin intervention to get it. Adminhelp if you want it, you never know what they will say!''


==[[Syndicate Items|Your Tools]]==
You need to ensure another antag completes their objectives. You will greentext if they do.
Alright, you know your objective!  Time to accomplish that goal!  The Syndicate treats you much better than Centcom. You have 20 Telecrystals built into your PDA itching to be spent on traitory goods.  Check [[Syndicate Items]], for a more detailed description on the goods. But don't go racing off to order those items ASAP; people are more clustered in the beginning of rounds and the AI is probably wondering how it switches cameras and the Captain is off huffing paint somewhere.  Although it can be useful to get items early, holding off until you need the item also has merit, so 6 crystals don't get wasted on an emag when you find the captain's spare ID on that assistant you just killed.
===Destroy Machinery===
You will get an objective with machinery listed and an area of the station. Ensure the original copy of the machinery is destroyed.


If you think you're at the risk of being searched by security, and you don't think you can outrun or outfight them, a good idea is to hide your traitor items in a backpack in one of the personal lockers in the locker room at arrivals or in the dorms northwest of the bar. If the item is small (such as an emag), and you'd rather hold onto it, you can hollow out a book with a pair of wirecutters and place the item inside. To recover it, just click the item in your hand. The object will fall out.
===Minor Objectives===
If you don't have hijack or martyr, you will have a chance of getting a minor objective to complete. These objectives will vary in difficulty, from something as small as taking a photo to something as big as deleting your security record.
===Optional Objectives===
Optional objectives are completed by default, so there is no need to go out of your way to do them. They provide you with fun ideas on what to do, such as kidnapping a crew member or creating fake crime scenes.


Another good hiding spot for small items is in the cistern of a toilet in the locker room or the dorms. Crowbar the toilet to remove the cistern lid, click the toilet with the item you wish to hide, then crowbar the toilet again to replace the lid. Be warned that this creates a unique sound that can be heard in nearby rooms, so players who hear this and know about the trick may check the toilets to see what loot they can find.
==[[Syndicate Items|Your Tools]]==
Alright, you know your objective! Time to accomplish that goal! The Syndicate treats you much better than Centcom. You have 20 Telecrystals built into your PDA, pen, headset or implant itching to be spent on traitory goods. '''To access your uplink from the PDA, go to the IC tab in the actual BYOND window and click on the Notes tab. Get the code from the Notes window and enter it into your PDA ringtone. If your uplink is on a pen, you'll find the degrees to twist the pen in the Notes tab. If your uplink is on your headset, you will find the frequency to tune to in order to access the headset. Implant uplink can be accessed at any time by pressing the action button at the top of your screen but will have only 16 TC. REMEMBER TO LOCK THE UPLINK!''' Check [[Syndicate Items]], for a more detailed description on the goods. But don't go racing off to order those items ASAP, since people are more clustered in the beginning of rounds; the AI is probably wondering how it switches cameras, and the Captain is off huffing paint somewhere. Although it can be useful to get items early, holding off until you need the item also has merit, so 6 crystals don't get wasted on an emag when you find the captain's spare ID on that assistant you just killed.


You can also hide items in a shitty smuggler's satchel underneath a floor tile, but these only hold four small items and as such are a waste of telecrystals.
Some tools are roundstart job specific, so you may want to change up your plans or try something fun when you get the chance. Fry and eat human corpses with a chef only body deep frier, or use the Modified Syringe Gun to make [[Assistant|shitters]] deaf, dumb, and blind from 3 tiles away, or go for the ever popular 20+ TC stuffed toolbox approach. It's not always about the greentext (though that would certainly be nice to get), and your only limit is your creativity.


Another thing to note is that you can dispense raw telecrystals in groups of 1, 5 and 20. Raw telecrystals can be reinserted into an active uplink by just smacking it up against it. This is only useful for interacting with fellow traitors, and some items like Romerol can only be purchased with more than 20 telecrystals. You can either ask them nicely for telecrystals, or rob them while they have their uplink open. Should there be any [[Contributors#Staff|admins]] around, you can exchange your raw telecrystals in hand for special things that can't be normally bought from an uplink (such as a bluespace locker) through prayer or through Ahelping them. Bear in mind there is no actual system in place for this, so trades are up to the discretion of whatever admin responds, so don't push your luck and try to trade 20 TC for an AA roundstart everytime.
==[[Illicit Access]]==
==[[Illicit Access]]==
Gaining entry to areas above your clearance is an important skill. Sometimes you're looking to loot stuff. Sometimes security or another traitor is chasing you and you need to escape them. Sometimes the AI has gone mad and has locked you in a room filling with deadly neurotoxin. A collection of ways to break into places can be found [[Illicit Access|here]].

A great, but not subtle tool to break into places is a [[Syndicate Items#Cryptographic Sequencer|Cryptographic Sequencer]].
 
==Variations==
==Murder 101==
===Blood Brothers===
Most traitors eventually have to kill someone, regardless of objectives, and knowing the right and wrong ways to do it will make or break your mission.
Blood Brothers is a variant of Traitor where you are bound to work with another random person on the station. Together you and some random traitor will work together to pull off any of the regular traitor objectives. '''It should be noted that you will not receive an uplink but instead will have:'''
 
# The recipes located in the makeshift [[Syndicate Items|weapon book]]
====General Tips & Advice====
# A communication implant that allows direct communication with your blood brother
* Always finish the job.
# A box filled with random syndicate items totalling 5TC
* Aiming for the head generally causes more stuns and knock-downs than the torso.
# Anything else the station can offer you
* Armor can be circumvented by aiming for areas not covered by the armor. If somebody is wearing a helmet, aim for the torso. For body armor, aim for the legs.
Blood Brother is a generally loathed variant as you'll usually be tasked with someone worse than you (they will generally be a burden, forcing you to carry them) or someone better than you (while this does mean you'll get your ass carried, this makes you the burden on the team dynamic). A common routine for Blood Brothers is to divide and conquer, having person A to objective A and person B do objective B. While having a lackey (or being one) is good in some circumstances, people generally don't like working with anyone outside of their favorite metabuddy and you will usually find yourself at each other's throats.
* Know your enemy. If your target is part of the Security team or one of the Heads, expect to be fighting a heavily armed and armored opponent. If you know the target is a good fighter, it might be a good idea to use one of the less physical methods.
* If you think you can kill somebody with an item, chances are you can. Even when you're sure there's no way this will kill anyone, ''it still might manage to.'' Experiment with different items and tools so that you're always a threat.
* When push comes to shove, push back. Fighting in SS13 is a lot like bull fighting; a lot of running and dodging and then direct physical confrontation. Never be afraid to back off for a second and get ready for a charge.
* Keep in mind that the best methods of killing are combinations of the ones listed below.
* Blood on your weapons, hands, and on floor are dead giveaways that you have beat somebody up. Dispose of the weapon and/or clean them if you have the supplies or can get to a sink and/or shower. Always try to wear gloves when you kill someone. Not only does it leave your hands clean, it prevents fingerprint evidence from giving you away.
* Having the element of surprise on your side ALWAYS makes for an easier murder. Don't give your opponents a chance to run away or defend themselves if you can.
* If you act suspiciously, you'll be treated suspiciously. Your instinct might tell you to avoid security and try not to draw attention to yourself. This is guilty behaviour. Act casual. Be polite and engaging with people you talk to. You'll be surprised at what you can get away with when people like and trust you.
 
===Beating===
Typically the most readily available murder option. It involves a blunt object such as your fists, tools, toolboxes, stun batons or almost any other item in the game.
 
''Pros:''
Easy to do, weapons are readily available across the station.
 
''Cons:''
Leaves a bloody mess, armor exists, often gives them time to cry for help.
 
''Notes:''
Unless you're a robust fighter, beating is not always a viable option because it's somewhat easy to defend against. A few objects, like batons, will require harm intent.
 
===Strangulation===  
Another simple option. Anybody who's not handcuffed can strangle somebody.
 
''Pros:''
Always available option, after you have it locked in it's GAME OVER, doesn't leave any blood
 
''Cons:''
Unless they're stunned or handcuffed, it's very easy to avoid and it leaves you in a vulnerable position, unless you quick choke.
 
''Notes:''
Strangulation is most useful against downed opponents. Tabling is a common precursor to strangling.
 
==Advanced Methods of Murder==
This section covers special weapon kills and environmental circumstances that may only be available in certain parts of the station.
 
===Suffocation===
Simple enough; while wearing internal gear, release toxic gases into a room with your opponent.
 
''Pros;''
Leaves no physical evidence besides the tank/canister, reasonably fast!
 
''Cons:''
Toxic gases can be difficult to acquire depending on your job; trapping your target presents a problem in and of itself; the area becomes contaminated until somebody comes to clean it up, and the AI will also receive an atmospheric alarm for the area and can immediately jump to a camera there making escape difficult unless you can hide in a locker or something
 
''Notes:''
Suffocation is not a good option for many parts of the station, but it's feasible to use in areas like the Engine, Toxins and the Atmos lab.
 
===Intoxication/Overdose===
Killing aided by medical supplies such as toxins, morphine and rejuvenators and medication like epilepsy pills. Some of these will merely incapacitate the enemy, some will do significant damage, and enough of them can be deadly.
 
''Pros:''
Readily available in the Medbay or from your uplink, leaves little physical evidence
 
''Cons:''
Takes some time to work, is most likely not deadly unless extreme doses are administered
 
''Notes:''
This method is effective to incapacitate people you've already caught if you don't have any means of handcuffing them, but unless you're a chemist what you've got is probably not effective enough to kill outright.
 
===Weapons===
Simple to use and are most effective when you're directly attacking the enemy. This includes swords, axes and revolvers.
 
''Pros:''
Almost a one-hit-kill, can be concealed
 
''Cons:''
Only available to the traitor, makes a bloody mess, anybody who sees you with them will assume you are the traitor, revolvers can be heard from adjacent rooms
 
''Notes:''
Very effective and efficient means to kill, but these weapons are not available to the general public so if you're caught with them it's usually game over.
 
===Spacing===
The act of forcing somebody out of an external airlock. The ones in the [[Escape Shuttle Hallway]] and [[Arrivals]] are all-access, meaning anyone can open these.
 
''Pros:''
Airlocks are available across the station, guaranteed kill, leaves no physical evidence
 
''Cons:''
External airlock access isn't granted to everybody, smart opponents might be able to dodge out of the way or pull you out with them, they will probably be able to scream for help, you'll need internal equipment
 
''Notes:''
Spacing can be a plausible option for people with the proper equipment, but it can also be dangerous.
 
===Fire===
Very dangerous and should only be used if a dramatic death is desired.
 
''Pros:''
Very intimidating and dramatic, high chance of death, destroys the station (if that's a good thing), and leaves no physical evidence except a charred body and burnt floors.
 
''Cons:''
The equipment required to start a fire is only available in certain rooms such as the atmospheric lab, toxins lab and the engine. It's also very dangerous to the attacker.
 
''Notes:''
Fire has high style points but it can be permanently damaging to the station and may interfere with your objective.
 
The '''singularity engine''' can also be used as an effective murder weapon and shares many of the pros and cons stated above, but the danger is increased tenfold.
 
===Genetic Murder===
Makes up a fraction of murders on SS13, but it has its advantages.
 
''Pros:''
You can change the person's identity completely, you can mask your murder as an attempt to help give them powers or do research or backup DNA, and once they're in the pod you can lock it where they have no chance to call for help or fight back.
 
''Cons:''
It's hard and generally suspicious to access the genetics lab unless you're cleared to enter.
 
''Notes:''
This method can be risky and it is generally not easy to accomplish unless you're the researcher.
 
===Polytrinic Acid===
Can be made using the chemistry system and is deadly if used correctly.
 
''Pros:''
Like medicine, acid can be injected into a person using a syringe or shot out of a gun. It can also be splashed from a beaker. If it's splashed it has a chance of removing the person's identity, which can only be restored in the genetics lab under unlikely circumstances.
Poly acid smoke grenades are extremely deadly.
 
''Cons:''
Hard to make unless you're the chemist. Acids are not very effective when injected.
 
''Notes:''
This method suffers the same fate as the genetics option and is not plausible to the people who are not researchers.
 
===Baiting===
A fairly advanced tactic, if only because it doesn't always work and is difficult to pull off correctly. Basically, you talk Security into attacking somebody for committing some kind of crime. The crime ostensibly committed can range from breaking windows to breaking faces - it doesn't matter, they'll die for it. This can be especially useful when the Security team have proven themselves incompetent and are unlikely to challenge your accusations.
 
''Pros:''
Relieves suspicion of you (if it exists), a very good way of getting the station's legitimate members to do your dirty work, distracts Security, makes for nice RP
 
''Cons:''
Unpredictable, occasionally backfires, not always easy to pull off.
 
''Notes:''
It is great when it works, but it is also hard to pull off and risky. Make sure you always wear gloves, and try to use people's ignorance to your advantage; asking some random Assistant to hold something like a fire extinguisher for you at the start of the round, then leave it near the victim's body, for example.
 
Another tip-Have a good weapon on you, DON'T MAKE THINGS UP ON THE GO, have something your target can get knocked out by.
 
===Gibbing===
Using the chef's gibber for killing personnel. Probably the best if you're the chef, but if the corpse is knocked out, the chef won't give a shit about killing them.
 
''Pros:''
Leaves no evidence, and you can eat him to get your health back.
 
''Cons:''
Target has to be nonresponsive to gib them. Access to the kitchen is needed, or you will end up having at least one person who knows that you killed someone. Body has to be dragged to the kitchen.
 
''Notes:''
This is probably the best as chef, as it doesn't appear as traitorous.
 
===Cremation===
Using the crematorium is a must as a Chaplain traitor. You can also mass drive people if you don't want to cook them (obvious to anyone going to derelict).
 
''Pros:''
No chance to survive, leaves literally zero evidence if you pick up the ashes, no need to strip them down.
 
''Cons:''
You can get spotted, need to make sure the person is out cold / dead. Crematorium destroys items completely, and doesn't leave anything behind if you don't strip them. Obvious if you mass drived them (and people going to the derelict will notice this). Careful of blood trails! Finally, only people with the crematorium's access can use the crematory devices. Remember, the crematorium also destroys items! Nothing is worse than broiling the Captain and realizing that all that remains of your objective is now a scorched piece of jumpsuit.
 
''Notes:''
The mini-crossbow helps here, as does the sleepy pen. You can knock people out constantly, and pelt them with arrows until they pass out and are at your mercy.
 
== Where to Commit Murder ==
Now that you've picked your method of slaying, you will need to pick somewhere to do this. Several obvious factors play into this decision;
 
* Are the facilities available in this area? You obviously won't be able to push somebody into the engine from the Chapel.
 
* How frequently does the subject access this area? Waiting in the Medbay for your target won't result to anything if he never leaves his office.
 
* How heavily populated is the area? You won't want to kill somebody in an area like the Medbay because there is almost always somebody there.
 
After looking over these, you can tell where you should commit the crime. Several more specific factors play into this;
 
* How hard is the area to access?
* How secluded is the area?
* How much camera coverage is there?
* Is the area your primary post?
 
It would be unwise to kill somebody in the Toxins Lab if you're the only toxins researcher. On the other hand, it would be incredibly wise to kill somebody in the Toxins Lab if you're not the toxins researcher.


==Getting Caught==
'''IF YOUR BLOOD BROTHER IS CATATONIC OR SSD''' ahelp the situation over to an admin (or don't and do a standard 0tc traitor run without the liability of a 2 hour assistant on your back) and they'll pair you with another BB pair, give you another BB, or consider making you a standalone traitor. Should the gods not heed your call (or are absent) resume your objectives and make sure to report it on [https://forums.yogstation.net/forums/player-complaints.3/ the forums]. If your catatonic/SSD BB is still alive, stuff them somewhere safe so that they won't get murdered and pray they live to see the end of the shift. Cloning won't accept your dead catatonic/SSD buddy's brain, so you're best bet for reviving a dead BB (besides defibbing them or doing numerous surgeries) is to transplant their brain into that of a healthy individual and drag them onto the emergency shuttle.
Things never go that smoothly.  Getting caught is a way of life on Space Station 13 and knowing how to get out of it is very important. And the best way to do that is to lie so much you believe yourself.  Lie to everyone and everything that talks to you.  Agree to any searches that won't get you busted for corpses or traitor items.  Do anything to deflect the blame on to others. If you run around not saying anything dragging a locker of corpses around, you will end up dead.  If you drag around that locker of corpses saying you were cleaning up maintenance and you are going to give the chef some meat, you may have a chance of not getting killed. Note that your chances of this bluff being a success is shot to nothing if you get caught with any traitor items on you.  As soon as that first [[emag]] or revolver is spotted, you're getting a face full of a harm baton and then the embrace of hard vacuum.


==Additional Notes==
===Internal Affairs Agent===
Internal Affairs is another variant of traitor where you are given an objective to assassinate other Syndicate agents on the station. In this mode you are tasked to kill those who would be safe allies, so don't expect to make many friends because sooner or later they will be tasked with killing you and vice versa.


===Tip 1: GET CREATIVE===
Internal Affairs Agents start the round with an objective to assassinate another agent and a 20TC uplink. If you successfully assassinate an agent, pick up the syndicate button they leave behind to be granted a random syndicate item. You're given a pin pointer in the top right of your screen that points to the location of your target. If your target has left the Z-level, is in a blue space locker or a blue space body bag, the tracker will appear with a black blinking question mark.
Alright, here's the situation. Let's say that your objectives are to kill someone, and to escape alive. Very simple, and they give you a lot of leeway in terms of the method of assassination. This means you could kill your target in a multitude of interesting and different ways! Here's a few examples:


* Challenge your target to a duel.
After every other agent is dead, you will be given the objective of [[Traitor#Martyrdom|martyrdom]] or [[Traitor#Hijacking|hijack]].
* Kill them in an incredibly silly way, or using unlikely objects.
* Be like Jigsaw, and give them a challenge in which failure ends in death.
* Frame them as a traitor, by putting traitor items in plain sight and switching your fingerprints for theirs in the security database.

And many more! Please note that even if you have things like steal or escape alone objectives, you can still make things fun! Try holding a hostage, or buying the escape shuttle.

===Use a Gimmick===
===Tip 1-A: Use a gimmick===
Gimmicks can be the most fun you will have as an antagonist. Everything from tying your victims to a conveyor belt leading into the crusher and donning a Snidely Whiplash costume, to putting on a suit and tie, getting the admins to turn you into a skeleton, and building a disposals coaster into space (THE RIDE NEVER ENDS), to playing a murderer who hatches murder plots based on the victim's job (roboticist killed by a rogue cyborg, engineer thrown into the singularity, assistant toolboxed to death, etc.) can be fun for all parties involved.

===Don't Murderbone===
===Tip 2: Try to avoid murderboners===
Murderboning is no fun. No matter how great it might seem gunning down everyone you see, you've got to remember something. Every human you see walking around is being controlled by a real person. They probably sat down after a hard day doing whatever it is they do and said to themselves “Huh, I want to play Space Station 13. It's a fun game!” You probably did the exact same thing before you logged on. For each little pixel character you shoot in this game of 2D spessmens, you are removing a person – just like you – from doing something they find enjoyable. This is what makes SS13 different from other games. If you die in an FPS, you pop back into existence no different from before you died. In SS13, unless the body is recovered you die permanently. So please, think of who you're killing before you go on a thermal/noslip/esword frenzy. Bear in mind that, while scummy and heavily discouraged, it is not against the rules to do such a thing when given proper objectives (i.e Hijack).
''WARNING! WARNING! OPINION AND RANT AHEAD!''
===Ask The Admins===
 
Despite popular opinion, the admins are not just here to ban people and press buttons. They're here to help make the round interesting – just like you! Therefore, if you want to do a gimmick that you cannot pull off with the tools available, feel free to ask the admins if you can buy something using leftover TC. Some ideas: CentCom announcements, identity changes, surgery tools, and building materials. Another thing – if your objectives are boring, easy, or you've already completed them, you can ask for more. It's a good alternative to simply killing everything in sight if you can't think of something to do.

===More Tips===
* Having a spare ID always helps. Assistants are a dime a dozen, so it's not a bad idea to pin one on your shirt before you go about any dirty business so your real identity is not compromised. Throw some acid on your face and acquire a voice changer from your uplink, and no one will ever be able to discover who you are! That is, unless they take your DNA or fingerprint. If you don't have that, then just wear a mask and run around as unknown, using your ID to access the doors that you need. Knowing the access each job has makes certain IDs more valuable than others and should be a priority.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-myList"><div style="font-weight:bold;line-height:1.6;">ID tips</div><div style="line-height:1.6;color:darkblue">[Toggle List]</div></div>
* Emagging welded doors causes them to close permanently, they cannot be opened and can only be destroyed, use this to your advantage when 'reserving' an escape shuttle for yourself or when hiding a powersink.
<ul class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-myList">
* There may be other traitors on the shuttle and you may be their objective to kill.  Trust nobody.  Also, if the round is uneventful, the admins may create new traitors with custom objectives, some of which can be a lot of fun.

* As a traitor, unless you haven't engaged in any traitorous deeds, you lack [[rules|Rule 1]] protection.  However, you are not under the jurisdiction of Rule 1 either. Short of rape, or intentionally crashing the server, you can do whatever you please.
<li>There's an ID console near arrivals. If you get all-access, you can use this to make extra IDs to stash somewhere for when [[Security]] inevitably take your original ID.</li>
 
<li>An agent card, which can be used to make you untraceable by the AI, can also scan other IDs to copy their access, producing no special message for spectators: you can do it pretty much anywhere in full view of everyone. Have fun standing in the HoP's line by queuing up behind someone with large amounts of access and copying that access while the ID is placed on the table. As scanning two cards with an agent card gives the agent card the permissions of both, you can create a ghetto Captain's ID with a few low level IDs.</li>
===Even More Tips===
<li>Have an agent ID and a voice-changer mask? Why not use it to make that guy you murdered blame somebody else!</li>
* Emag any Janiborg you can for their infinite lube reserves. They are also very effective thieves due to being able to pick up items with their trash bag. Emag one, tell it to bring you the AI Upload board and a module of your choice from the Upload Chamber, etc.
<li>Nobody checks the lockers in the locker room. Like, ever. And you need a fairly high level of ID to open lockers that are already registered to a specific person, so no worries about Joe Schmoe Assistant running in and stealing your hand teleporter.</li>
* Apparently you can force the AI to call the shuttle by throwing an EMP grenade near it's core; it has a 15% chance to do so though.
<li>You should hide off cameras when impersonating someone with a non-Agent ID, as the AI can track you.</li>
* Store dead bodies on the Toxins Test Site. Nobody will ever find them.
</ul>
* Security cameras see as far as you do (7 tiles). This means that if you can't see a regular camera, it can't see you. X-ray cameras see through walls. You can differentiate them from normal cameras by the name, and the curved protrusion on the side.
<div style="clear:both"></div>
* Having a bomb in your backpack and setting it off while in a sleeper, will blow up all the shut and the sleeper, but leaving you perfectly unharmed.

* If you inject a good power cell with plasma, it'll explode and create a hole in space when it is used for anything.
<ul class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-myList2">
* Lightswitches can be used to sabotage a room if you inject plasma into the lightbulbs. Also works if there is a power outage.
<li>Emagging welded/bolted doors causes them to close permanently. Use this to your advantage when 'reserving' an escape shuttle for yourself or when hiding a powersink.</li>
* Also an emagged Medibot will flat out murder anyone who stands still. Good combo with emagged Beepsky.
<li>Emag any Janiborg you can for their infinite lube reserves. They are also very effective thieves due to being able to pick up items with their trash bag. Emag one, tell it to bring you an AI Upload board and a module of your choice.</li>
* When you take something from your bag, or put something in it, it creates a message that everyone around you gets. How far this message goes depends on the size of your item. Here's a cheat sheet:
<li>An emagged Medibot will start to inject anyone standing close to it with Toxin. Good to combo with an emagged Beepsky who will stun anyone next to it.</li>
**If the item can't be placed into a box, then when you put it in your bag it'll show to everyone that can see you.
<li>Emagging a comms console with captain access allows you to contact the syndicate. If the Gods are feeling kind you can use this to demand new objectives, and the Gods will often give you more telecrystals to help you achieve them.</li>
**If the item can be placed into a box, then when you put it in your bag it'll only show to people who are directly next to you.
<li>If you have perma access try to slip a fully loaded toolbox in the perma bathroom or hide an emag inside of the back of the toilet to escape later when you inevitably get sent there.</li>
**This also means that only the people next to you can see what you put into your box, as the box uses the same code as the bag. There are also a few exceptions, like the e-bow, that don't show any message at all.
<li>If you're looking to hijack a shuttle and have spare space in your inventory, the fastest way to lock people out long enough to emag it without warning is to drop two reinforced tables in one airlock passage just before it docks after bolt-nolight-emagging the other airlock passage(s). Results may vary in places with more than 2-3 doors.</li>
* Fake Mustaches conceal your identity as well as a gas mask or helmet.  
<li>The surest way to escape alone is preventing anyone from boarding and emagging the console. Murderboning rarely works, and subverting the AI relies on the AI being competent - inconsistent and risky.</li>
* An agent card, which can be used to make you untrackable by the AI, can also scan other IDs to copy their access, producing no special message for spectators: you can do it pretty much anywhere in full view of everyone. Have fun standing in the HoP's line by queuing up behind someone with large amounts of access and copying that access on the diagonal while the ID is placed on the table. Also scanning two cards with an agent card give the agent card the permissions of both, you can create a ghetto captains ID with a few low level ID's you just find laying around.
<li>A strategy to win Cuban Pete, which can be played on a emagged arcade machine (note that if you die, you die for real):</li>
* If you grab someone and use them on a open toilet, you give them a swirly that drowns them. If it is closed, it slams the affected person into the toilet seat.
<ol><ul class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-myList2">
* The chameleon projector can be used to dodge shots, just run with it in your and spam it to have bolts go over you.
<li>If your magic is less than 5, charge.</li>
**A hilariously effective use of the cham projector is something slippery, like the clown's PDA or a banana peel. WILD CLOWN MATERIALIZES.
<li>If your health is less than Pete's, and your turtle value is less than 3, heal. Otherwise, attack.</li>
**You can't drag items that are people with cham projectors on, giving you a way to check an item without immediately sending the cloaker into a panic.
<li>Healing increases your turtle value by 1.</li>
**Floorbots won't try to collect people disguised as floor tiles or metal
<li>Attacking or charging your magic reduces your turtle value by 1.</li>
**While pretending to be an item you can move out of closets without opening them. This is useful if you've accidentally been locked in a closet while guised
<li>Pete will attack you for more damage if your turtle value is greater than 3.</li>
**Pretending to be an item in space gives you perfect movement, but you'll still die of exposure if you're not prepared
<li>This technique gives you a win/loss ratio of about 1.7 on average. If your health is ever below 7, restart the game (screwdriver the arcade machine to restart).</li>
**If you ghost your catatonic body will remain cloaked
<li>Once you get Pete to low health, be aware that he can steal your magic. This can result in your death easily, such as if you heal at 5 magic using up 3, and then he steals 2, bringing you to 0 and gibbing you.</li>
**You can cloak as things in the holodeck and use them elsewhere on the station, no one ever suspects the beachball.
</ol></ul>
**You can wrench apart a table or rack and rebuild it under you and disguise for a more convincing ploy.
<div style="clear:both"></div>
**Item cloaked people are immune to the mass driver
<div class="mw-customtoggle-myList3"><div style="font-weight:bold;line-height:1.6;">Bomb and IED tips</div><div style="line-height:1.6;color:darkblue">[Toggle List]</div></div>
**Hiding as an item in a doorway will let the door close harmlessly on you, giving total concealment.
<ul class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-myList3">
**Buy an uplink implant, if you get brigged buy a projector and inspire the wild goose chase of the century as you hide there. If sec is being meta shitlords they'll probably assume there's a cult about due to the lack of evidence of any escape route besides a straight up teleport.
<li>You can make an improvised explosive (IED) with basic materials (a soft drink can, igniter, a welding fuel tank, and some cable coil). It can gib dead people if exploded on their body, and the explosion doesn't expose blown tiles to space. It also destroys dead borg's bodies so you can get the MMI.</li>
* Glass shards can be “prepared” to be 15 damage pocket-fitting weapons:
<li>One very important note about IED's blast radius is that it can destroy an APC one tile away.</li>
**Throw them against the wall. Each time you do it, there is a 20% chance the force will change to 15. Otherwise it will change to 4
<li>You can use an IED on a reinforced wall to skip most of the disassembling steps.</li>
**Test it on yourself with a health analyzer until you notice yourself taking 15 damage.
<li>You only need maint access to make single tank bombs. Get a large air tank, any igniter assembly, a wrench and a welder. Remove the air in the air tank with an air pump, then add some plasma and oxygen from the incinerator room (may need some pipe re-wrenching depending on the map), add a hot gas, then attach the igniter assembly and weld a hole in the bomb.</li>
**Melee damage on the shard will not change if you don’t throw it.
<li>You can destroy canisters by attacking them. Using a welder also lights the plasma from canisters on fire after it escapes. Very useful for traitoring. It's stupidly easy to escape alone just by releasing some plasma at escape a few minutes before the shuttle arrives. Fire will destroy canisters the same way but, instead of releasing plasma, it'll explode like a small bomb. So if you're trying to make an inferno, let the canister empty ''then'' light it, so you don't put your own fire out with vacuum.</li>
* No-Slip syndie shoes are the most cost effective thing you can possibly buy, and probably the most powerful thing you can purchase.
<li>Having a bomb in your backpack and setting it off while in a sleeper will blow up everything and the sleeper, but leave you perfectly unharmed.</li>
* You can change the timer on C4 to be extremely high, it tops out at 60000 seconds (1000 minutes = 16.7 hours). Scare the ba-jesus out of someone by planting irremovable C4 that will probably never detonate or hang a live explosive on your wall for a stylish conversation piece.
<li>Reverse pickpocketing doesn't produce a message for people you try it on (unless it fails). You can reverse pickpocket mini-bombs onto people. You can start the timer on the mini-bomb after you start shoving it into their pockets.</li>
* The entirety of Disposals can easily be routed into space in certain maint areas, and you need only stun and drag people to a disposal bin to instantly kill them. Disposals can be a very potent weapon if used correctly, and there are plenty of correct ways. You just need to find them.
<li>You can change the timer on C4 to be extremely high, it tops out at 60000 seconds (16.7 hours). Scare the ba-jesus out of someone by planting irremovable C4 that will probably never detonate, or hang a live explosive on your wall for a stylish conversation piece.</li>
* Putting a tracking beacon in space makes the hand teleporter a instantly lethal weapon instead of a convenience.
<li>Light switches can be used to sabotage a room if you inject plasma into the light bulbs. Also works if there is a power outage.</li>
* A banana peel slip is long enough to quickchoke someone.... not as devastating as it once was, but they'll be down for the count unless someone assists them.
<li>If you inject a good power cell with plasma, it'll explode and create a hole in space when it is used for anything.</li>
* Targeting the eyes with a flashlight and attacking someone with it will cause their screen to flash white for a moment... This works on cyborgs as well, and can be used to blind and seriously inconvenience them if you don't have access to a flash and have someone to assist you in beating them to death.
<li>If so dip a cigar in plasma, the person who lights it will be gibbed (normal cigs won't do as much damage).</li>
* Lockers do not protect from space and atmosphere. So stun-locker-weld-space is a valid strategy.
</ul>
* When security is chasing you, occasionally do a 180° and sprint back past them. If they’re space lagging enough, they won’t see you run by. This is especially effective if you’re being chased by the dreaded security mob, mainly because such mobs have a pack mentality. If you manage to throw off one officer, chances are good someone will follow him as well. Also, unless they are right on your ass, close doors you go through and open doors you don’t. People will chase open doors if they lose a visual on you. Also, tasers can’t go through doors and you can’t open a door during its closing animation, which can give you another extra second to duck into a maintenance tunnel.
<div style="clear:both"></div>
* There's an ID console near arrivals. If you get all-access when you really shouldn't, you should use this to make extra ID's to stash somewhere for when Sec inevitably takes your original ID.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-myList4"><div style="font-weight:bold;line-height:1.6;">EMP tips</div><div style="line-height:1.6;color:darkblue">[Toggle List]</div></div>
* Shoving a corpse into a locker or body bag or buckling to a chair/roller bed then dragging that object about leaves no blood trail.
<ul class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-myList4">
* Shooting syringes of black slime juice works and will turn the person into a slime. Combine this with that one icy reagent or a docility potion and bam, you just murdered someone.
<li>You can force the AI to call the shuttle by throwing an EMP grenade near it's core, which has a 15% chance to force a shuttle call. Or, if your objectives allow for it, release the tesla which usually makes a bee-line for the AI (if you haven't given it prior prompting via a beacon).</li>
* Diamond drills can break through r-walls in record time.
<li>EMPing a cloning pod turns the clone into a slurry of blood and meat chunks. Useful if you've got access to ground iron and uranium and ''really'' need the guy getting cloned to not get cloned.</li>
* Already named your agent ID? Out of points? Your voice changer is still useful! Make that guy you murdered blame somebody else! Make him say he's committing suicide! If you have access to an ID modification console and/or spare IDs, it's EVEN MORE FUN. HoP traitor (or equivalent) with a voice changer can impersonate anyone he wants, including entirely new people, from the comfort of his own office or his escape pod.
<li>EMPs silence headsets and turns off suit sensors until they are manually turned back on.</li>
* You should hide off cameras when impersonating someone with a normal ID, as the AI can track you.
<li>EMPs knock out electricity in a wide area and messes up a lot of machinery in a lot of ways (one way being emag effects). It is a very versatile component to combat cyborgs or cybernetic enhancement users, such as Preternis, as it will automatically shut them down in a fight.</li>
* You can always turn that Box of Spare IDs into a Box of Fake IDs, find a nice place in maint....
<li>You can take out a combat mech with just an axe if you circle it well enough. Since they turn around slowly and must face you to fire, they can't do much. The only issue is getting close enough. If you intend to give someone else a combat mech, stick on a bunch of mech beacons and build yourself an exosuit computer. If they start to rampage, EMP all the beacons and ruin their mech.</li>
* If you ever need a place to hide something make a false wall to the balloons secret spot and put the stuff into that area to get later when the heat has died down. All you need to worry about is some-body wanting a balloon and finds a ton of weapons or something else instead. For extra points use the secret spot right by sec for the irony if they ever find out. ADDED: You can also use the little construction area next to security if you don't mind a little damage. Few people check there unless there happens to be a powersink/hidden comms console.
</ul>
* NOBODY expects freedom implants.
<div style="clear:both"></div>
* You can delete your fingerprints from the security records.

* Nobody checks the lockers in the locker room. Like, ever. And you need a fairly high level of ID (I can do it with all-access) to open lockers that aren't already coded to a specific PDA, so no worries about Joe Schmoe Assistant running in and stealing your hand tele.
<ul class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-myList5">
* How to quickly and easily disable tcomms permanently (99% of the time) as a traitor, at the cost of four telecrystals: from in front of the Incinerator door, go 4 tiles south and slap a block of C4 to your right. Equip internals while you wait for it to go off. This will destroy the telecomms APC, which will depower comms. Nobody will be able to use headsets. With your internals on obviously, slap a second block of C4 on the hub in the middle of the room. If you didn't get tased and then lasered and dragged out onto a solar by an engineer who's packing, you will be able to enjoy your disabled comms and everyone walking around with constantly broadcasting station bounced radios in their pockets. ADDED: Destroying the hub does stop communication through headsets on the station.
<li>You can delete your fingerprints from the security records. It's better to re-forge them or swap them with someone else's however.</li>
* How to get to the Captain’s Quarters through disposals: There is a disposals tunnel outside the mining dock. Just weld and then wrench the sorting pipe, then right-click it once it's free and click flip. With a bit of luck, it'll be facing the opposite way. Wrench and weld it. Any disposal "upstream" from that pipe will now take objects and people to the HoP's office. I like to break into the construction area above tcomms, because it has a disposal in-between the pipe you need to flip to get into the captain's office and the previous one we flipped. To get into the Captain's office, you need to crowbar the floor here below the teleporter, then weld, wrench and flip the pipe. When the arrow is pointing right, wrench and weld the pipe and lay the floor tile back over it. Any disposal "upstream" from there will take you to the captain's office. The rest will take you to the HoP's. The only question is, if there's no ID and no hand tele, how do you get out before security gets there?
<li>Simply changing your hairstyle can be enough to throw security off your trail if they only caught a glimpse of you. Especially if you have hair that really stands out.</li>
* Emagging a comms console with captain access allows you to contact the syndicate. Use this to demand new objectives, which they will often give you more telecrystals to help you do this.
<li>Are you a traitorous sort lucky enough to have HoP-level access? CLOSE THE POSITIONS. An understaffed security team is a poor security team.</li>
* E-swords and plasma cutters can be used to make sawn-offs. Eswords can also cut cakes and pizzas, disable bolts on doors, and light cigars.
<li>If you ever need a place to hide something while sec is on your tail, make a false wall into a secret spot and put the stuff into that area to get later when the heat has died down. All you need to worry about is someone with meson goggles finding your weapons or contraband.</li>
* You can't get out of package wrapped lockers. I don't even know if you can resist out of them.
<li>On Boxstation, you can free people from perma without using space by going through the interrogation room and thus emagging the doors holding your kin.</li>
* Spaced bodies can husk, but it's pretty slow. Burned bodies husk much better.
<li>Pulse rifles can break tables, racks, girders, and pretty much anything else besides airlocks, provided you aim at it with your mouse.</li>
* You can free people from perma without using space. ADDED: If you go through brig maint, get through the window and grill near where they keep Sec's atmospheric canisters. Walk up near evidence, cut down the evidence R-wall, Go over to the wall that is behind the table in perma, make it into a hidden wall. Wrench the table and Tada! Sneak in and out of perma while only having to worry about the AI!
<li>Fake mustaches conceal your identity just as well as a gas mask.</li>
* The AI cannot examine anything except things it can see in its chamber.
<li>No security officer expects freedom implants.</li>
* Can uncuff while in a disposal unit.
<li>Every PDA holds a pen by default. Remove it and store your sleepy pen/e-daggers there.</li>
* You can strip someone's pockets without a message appearing, if they don't move during it, otherwise they'll get a message that says their pockets are being touched. The item will still drop on the floor so you'll have to be quick about picking it up.
<li>Latex gloves don't stop you from leaving your fingerprints everywhere. They leave partial prints.</li>
* Instead of putting ignited lighter near your plasma tank bomb so it ignites the plasma ,you can wield your plasma tank bomb with wielding tool so you would not need to make such a complicated scheme. (???)
<li>You can uncuff yourself while in a disposal unit.</li>
* You can take out a combat mech with just an axe if you circle it well enough. Since they turn around slowly and must face you to fire, they can't do shit. The only issue is getting close enough. Also, if you intend to give someone a combat mech (not yourself) stick on a bunch of mech beacons and build yourself an exosuit computer. If they start to rampage, EMP all the beacons and ruin their mech. Then laugh at them and smash their face in real good.
<li>Grenades can be activated from a backpack with mousetraps. Great for when a snobby security officer ask you for a search.</li>
* PDA holds a pen by default. Remove it and store your sleepy pen there if you take it. No one carries pens in their bag.
<li>Store dead bodies on the Toxins Test Site. Nobody will ever find them. Hopefully.</li>
* Are you a traitorous sort lucky enough to have HoP-level access? Don't want security on your dick? CLOSE THE POSITIONS. An understaffed security team is a shit security team.
<li>You can shoot a window with a laser (click the window), rather than through the window. Doing this is faster than almost every other method, comparable in speed to deconstruction.</li>
* Latex gloves don't stop you from leaving your fingerprints everywhere. They leave partial prints.
<li>Bullets pass through windows, but not grilles. Lasers and disablers pass through windows and grilles. Electrodes are blocked by both windows and grilles.</li>
* Strapping a man to a chair while throwing floor tiles at him, is a surprisingly quick death on his part.
<li>Sec Borgs are always stunned by flashes, but the amount of time they're stunned varies.</li>
* If your objective is to steal the nuke disk, steal the pinpointer as well. The reason should be self-evident.
<li>Targeting the eyes with a flashlight and attacking someone with it will cause their screen to flash white for a moment. This works on cyborgs as well, and can be used to blind and seriously inconvenience them if you don't have access to a flash.</li>
* The suspicious toolbox does fifteen damage instead of ten, making it as strong as a circular saw or a null rod.
<li>The AI cannot examine anything except things it can see in its chamber. It can take pictures of you to see what's in your hand however.</li>
* Borgs are always stunned by flashes, but the amount of time they're stunned varies.
</ul>
* Grenades can be activated from backpack with mousetraps.
<div style="clear:both"></div>
* Suit Storage Units can hold any type of space suit, even hardsuits. You can hide hardsuits in them and nobody will ever think of checking there. Well, unless the power goes out and the SSU forcibly ejects its contents, of course.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-myList6"><div style="font-weight:bold;line-height:1.6;">Chameleon projector tips</div><div style="line-height:1.6;color:darkblue">[Toggle List]</div></div>
* The nuke blocks projectiles.
<ul class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-myList6">
* Black gloves are fireproof. That means you can take whatever lights you want without getting burned.
<li>The chameleon projector can be used to dodge shots, just run with it in your hand and spam it to have bolts go over you.</li>
* Pulse rifles can actually break tables, racks, girders, and pretty much anything, provided you aim at it with your mouse. Except airlocks.
<li>A hilariously effective use of the chameleon projector is something slippery, like the clown's PDA or a banana peel. WILD CLOWN MATERIALIZES.</li>
* You can accomplish most non-murder objectives by asking nicely.
<li>You can't drag items that have people with cham projectors on, giving you a way to check an item without immediately sending the cloaker into a panic.</li>
* EMP can silence headsets.
<li>Floorbots won't try to collect people disguised as floor tiles or metal.</li>
* You can dip a cig in anything. Dip a cigar in plasma, the person who lights it will be gibbed (normal cigs won't do as much damage).
<li>Pretending to be an item in space gives you perfect movement, but you'll still die of exposure if you're not prepared.</li>
* Reverse pickpocketing doesn't produce a message for people you try it on (unless it fails). You can reverse pickpocket minibombs onto people. You can start the timer on the minibomb after you start the pickpocket attempt but before it's actually placed. At point blank range, the minibomb gibs provided the target has no protection. Go forth and explode pants.
<li>If you ghost, your catatonic body will remain cloaked.</li>
* You can make an improvised explosive (IED) with basic materials. What you'll need:
<li>You can cloak as things in the holodeck and use them elsewhere on the station, no one ever suspects the beachball.</li>
**Soft drink bottle (I'll use Space Cola), Igniter, a Welding fuel tank, and a cable coil.
<li>You can wrench apart a table or rack and rebuild it under you and disguise for a more convincing ploy.</li>
**Igniter ---> Space Cola ---> improvised explosive assembly --> click on a welding fuel tank --> cables ---> improvised explosive assembly (filled)
<li>Cloaked people are immune to the mass driver.</li>
**Should be all set. Oh, and it can gib dead people, if exploded on their body, and the explosion doesn't expose blown tiles to space. It also destroys dead borg's bodies so you can get the MMI.
<li>Hiding as an item in a doorway will let the door close harmlessly on you, giving total concealment.</li>
* One very important note about IED's blast radius is that it can destroy an APC one tile away. Meaning an IED in the windoor square in front of the AI can destroy its apc and render it incapable of shunting or really doing anything at all.
<li>Buy an uplink implant. If you get brigged buy a projector and inspire the wild goose chase of the century as you hide there. If sec is being incompetent they'll probably assume there's a cult about due to the lack of evidence of any escape route besides a straight up teleport.</li>
* You can use an IED on an r-wall to skip most of the steps of disassembling an r-wall.
<li>You can steal flashes from mounted flashers by using wirecutters. This will disable the flasher until a replacement flash is installed. One being located at HoP-Line and Sec checkpoints.</li>
* Got perma access? Try to slip a fully loaded toolbox in perma bathroom or hide an emag inside of the back of the toilet.
</ul>
* You don't need to steal the blueprints to complete your objective, you can instead take a picture of it and it will count as successfully stealing it.
<div style="clear:both"></div>
* "Steal plasma" is just the most easy objective; Grab a emergency O2 tank or an air tank, stuff it in a public scrubber until it's empty. Grab 10 sheets of metal, go to incinerator, make canister, attach canister to port, activate plasma valve, stuff tank into can, set pressure to max, open, wait, close, remove, win/die because you used it for internals.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-myList7"><div style="font-weight:bold;line-height:1.6;">Other traitor gadgets tips</div><div style="line-height:1.6;color:darkblue">[Toggle List]</div></div>
* EMPing a cloning pod turns the clone into a slurry of blood and meat chunks. In case you've got access to ground iron and uranium and REALLY need the guy getting cloned to not get cloned.
<ul class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-myList7">
* Simply changing your hairstyle can be enough to throw security off your trail if they only caught a glimpse of you. Especially if you have hair that really stands out.
<li>No-Slip shoes are the most cost effective thing you can possibly buy, and probably the most powerful thing you can purchase.</li>
* A strategy to win Cuban Pete:
<li>Energy Swords and circular saws can be used to make sawed-off shotguns. Energy Swords can also cut cakes, cut pizzas and light cigars.</li>
** If your magic is less than 5, charge.
<li>The Suspicious Toolbox does fifteen damage instead of ten.</li>
** If your health is less than Pete's, and your turtle value is less than 3, heal.
<li>Spraying someone who's smoking a cigarette or cigar with welding fuel or alcohol will set them on fire. The same applies to lit welders. Especially awesome since, unlike other methods for setting someone on fire, spraying does not show in the chatbox and it can be done from quite a few tiles away, or with unexpected items like pepper spray. It works with an active E-sword too, as a poor antag found out.</li>
** Otherwise, attack.
<li>Hardsuits can carry a Jetpack in their Suit Slot. This way you can carry it around without anyone seeing, but it still needs to be on your back to work.</li>
** Healing increases your turtle value by 1.
<li>Black gloves are fireproof. That means you can take whatever lights you want without getting burnt. They also half the damage you take from electric shocks.</li>
** Attacking or charging your magic reduces your turtle value by 1.
<li>When you buy the suspicious fedora for 3 TC, make sure to activate its hidden ability by using your action button or clicking on the sprite. This will change the sprite giving your hat blades and when thrown at someone will now inflict 40 brute damage! If you want your hat to return to its normal look, do the same actions stated above again.</li>
** Pete will attack you for more damage if your turtle value is greater than 3.
<li>The Suspicious Cards have sharp edges and can be thrown at people, causing some nasty bleeding. Another perk is that these cards are only classified as contraband and are one of the few items to fully bypass the Syndicate Weapons Law while still being very deadly.</li>
** This technique gives you a win/loss ratio of about 1.7 on average. If your health is ever below 7, restart the game (screwdriver the arcade machine to restart).
<li>The Energy Dagger, along with the Suspicious Fedora, both have enough throwing damage to open lockers and break reinforced glass alike! The Energy Dagger also has a 100% chance of embedding into whoever it is thrown at!</li>
** Also, once you get Pete to low health, be aware that he can steal your magic. This can result in your death easily, such as if you heal at 5 magic using up 3, and then he steals 2, bringing you to 0 and gibbing you.
<li>Energy Swords have a chance to deflect projectiles, but only when the user is facing the projectiles initial direction while having the energy sword activated.</li>
* RIG suits can carry a Jetpack in its Suit Slot, it still needs to be on your back to work, however you can carry it around without anyone seeing.
<li>While using the Reverse-Card, it is best not to immediately use the weapon you have gained with it, because the gadget will automatically teleport into the opponent's hand and work the same as it did for you.</li>
* Exo nuclear reactor radiation hits targets in 8 tile radius, get three exonuclear reactors for becoming walking radioactive catastrophe! Don't forget radiation suit, huh.
<li>Telecrystals can be crushed in hand to teleport 3 to 6 tiles in the direction you are facing, useful for getting in or out of places quickly and without traces.</li>
* If you're looking to hijack a shuttle and have spare space in your inventory, the fastest way to lock people out long enough to emag it without warning is to drop two reinforced tables in one airlock passage just before it docks after bolt-nolight-emagging the other airlock passage(s). Results may vary in places with more than 2-3 doors. ADDED: Five out of Five robusters agree - The surest way to escape alone is preventing anyone from boarding and emagging the console. Murderboning never works, and subverting the AI relies on the AI not being shit - Inconsistent & risky.
</ul>
* Tip: Bullets pass through windows, but not Grilles. Lasers pass through windows and grilles. Electrodes are blocked by both windows and grilles.
<div style="clear:both"></div>
* You can shoot a window with a laser (I.e, Click the window) to shoot at the window, rather than through the window. Doing this is faster than almost every other method, comparable in speed to deconstruction.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-myList8"><div style="font-weight:bold;line-height:1.6;">Murder methods tips</div><div style="line-height:1.6;color:darkblue">[Toggle List]</div></div>
* You can steal flashes from mounted flashers by using a wirecutter. This will disable the flasher until a replacement flash is installed.
<ul class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-myList8">
* You can destroy canisters by attacking them. Usually I'll use a welder, which also lights the plasma on fire after it escapes. Very useful for traitoring. It's stupidly easy to escape alone just by releasing some plasma at escape a few minutes before the shuttle arrives. Also fire will destroy canisters the same way, so a fire in Toxins storage is REALLY bad. ADDED: Keep in mind that it doesn't destroy then release the plasma. It'll actually explode like a small bomb. So if you're trying to make an inferno, let the can empty THEN light it, so you don't put your own fire out with vacuum.
<li>Your murder objectives will specify the species of your target, use that to take advantage of their weaknesses for an easier kill.</li>
* Bombing the engineering SMESes will cause the server to lag intolerably for five minutes. ADDED: It's also almost always an instant shuttle call. The solars can't support the whole station on wired power for long, and almost no one knows you can make SMES. ADDED x2: And hardly anyone makes use of the Backup SMES in Electrical Maint.
<li>The entirety of Disposals can easily be routed into space in certain maint areas, and you need only stun and drag people to a disposal bin to instantly kill them. Disposals can be a very potent weapon if used correctly, and there are plenty of other ways. You just need to find them.
* Spraying with welder fuel someone who's smoking a cigarette/cigar will set them on fire. Same applies to lit welders. Especially awesome since unlike other methods for setting someone on fire spraying does not show in the chatbox and it can be done from quite a few tiles away, or with unexpected items like pepper spray. ADDED: It also works with a active esword, as a poor antag found out once.
</li>
* You only need maint access to make single tank bombs, on any map. Get a large airtank, any igniter assembly, a wrench and a welder. Remove the air in the airtank with an airpump, then add some plasma and oxygen from the incinerator room(may need some pipe rewrenching depending on the map), add a hot gas, then attach the igniter assembly and weld a hole in the bomb. Experiment with the mix, I've seen 1,2,4 sized explosions(which is syndicate minibomb size) but I am sure you can make even bigger ones.
<li>If you grab someone and use them on a open toilet you can drown them via swirly, though it will take creativity. If it is closed, it slams the affected person into the toilet seat.</li>
* Instead of just cutting the wires for the vault, you can just grab a toolbox, ointment, and one of them budget insulated gloves and break in from the window. Only on box though.
<li>Putting a tracking beacon in space makes the hand teleporter an instantly lethal weapon instead of a convenience.</li>
 
<li>Lockers do not protect from space and atmosphere unless welded. So stun-locker-weld-space is a valid strategy.</li>
===Double Agents?===
<li>Shoving a corpse into a locker, body bag, or buckling to a chair/roller bed then dragging that object about leaves no blood trail. Also having the light-step trait allows you to walk in blood without leaving a trail.</li>
So you're a double agent. This mode functions a bit differently from normal Traitor in that <s>it's an absolute clusterfuck</s> you are assigned another double agent to kill! However, this means that there's also a double agent out to kill YOU! You need to kill a double agent while not being killed yourself. Some uplink items, like the bomb, are unavailable in this mode.
<li>Spaced bodies can husk, but it's not terribly quick. Burned bodies husk much better.</li>
 
<li>Strapping a man to a chair while throwing floor tiles at him is a surprisingly quick death on his part.</li>
 
<li>Shooting syringes of [[Guide to xenobiology|black slime]] toxin will turn the person into a slime. Combine this with that one icy reagent or a docility potion and bam, you just murdered someone.</li>
{{Jobs}}
<li>Suit Storage Units can hold any type of space suit, even hardsuits. You can hide bodies in them and nobody will ever think of checking there. You can even hack them to burn somebody to a crisp.</li>

<ul class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-myList9">
<li>When you take something from your bag or put something in it, it creates a message that everyone around you gets. How far this message goes depends on the size of your item. If the item can't be placed into a box, then when you put it in your bag it'll show to everyone that can see you. If the item can be placed into a box, then when you put it in your bag it'll only show to people who are directly next to you. This also means that only the people next to you can see what you put into your box, as the box uses the same code as the bag. There are also a few exceptions, like the e-bow, that don't show any message at all.</li>

SYNDICATE STAFF
Traitor.png
Traitor
Access: Wherever your job has access to
Additional Access: Wherever you can gain illicit access to
Difficulty: Medium
Supervisors: The Syndicate
Duties: Kill people, steal shit, fuck school
Guides: Syndicate Items, Murder
Quote: HALP THAT MEATBALL TRAITOR JOERGE MWRLINS IS GRIFING ME!!!

Gamemode in rotation

An unpaid debt. A score to be settled. Maybe you were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Whatever the reasons, the Syndicate has selected you to infiltrate Space Station 13. Your objective is whatever the hell they tell you to do, you're not the one calling the shots here, friend. Time to put on your big boy pants, read up on your objectives and do whatever it takes. Or don't. It's up to you.

The Basics

After you've familiarized yourself with robusting, it’s time to start sowing discord and chaos. The first thing to note as the traitor are your objectives. They are always kept in the Notes command, and it’s a good idea to check that when a round starts because some early game spam can push your objectives off of the chat!

Your Objectives

For whatever reason you've decided to sell out the people you live and work with, most likely for personal gain. You will be given a number of dangerous goals by your new Syndicate employer which you must complete. Objectives can be seen on the "status" tab, and will turn green once complete. Should you complete your objectives and still want more to do, pray to the gods for additional objectives.

Grand Theft

Congratulations, this objective is either incredibly easy or impossibly difficult. Time to loot shit! You're tasked with stealing things like the Medal of Captaincy, Captain's Antique Laser, an RCD or even the goddamned AI. Generally your best bet is breaking into wherever the item is or robusting whoever has the access for his ID.

See the list of High-risk items for things you might be tasked to steal.

Assassination

If you're lucky (you won't be), someone or something will off your target for you. In that case, congratulations! Sit back, lay low and avoid the tsunami of chaos until you make it to Centcom on the escape shuttle. Wanna tip the scales in your favor? Good on ya. There's a whole smorgasbord of ways to murder someone. You can read up on that below.

Your target MUST be dead when the shuttle docks at Centcom. Don't forget that your station has experimental cloning technology that may or may not be working, so check whether your objective allows for their revival.

Maroon

A variation of Assassination where simply preventing them from escaping will also count as a success. Gives you a little more freedom in how you want to approach it. Nine times outta ten this means killing them, but you don't have to! Be creative!

Destroy

Another variation of Assassination, except your target will always be an AI. A little tougher than your typical target, as the AI is usually installed in a well-fortified location. It's also not as straight-forward as simply uploading a law to have it kill itself, as someone can easily just walk into the AI core and restore it back to full health.

Extraction

Good job, you dirty traitor you! Whatever your other objectives were, you have now successfully completed them! Now, the difficult part, getting off of the station in either the Escape Shuttle or an Escape pod. There are two main ways to go about this task, dynamic and stealth. Dynamic players are going to want to cause the damage to get the shuttle called. Stealthy players are going to want to hang back and let the station tear itself to pieces. Most players will need to combine these two ways to succeed, regardless of the escape alone modifier on the escape objective. The more people on the shuttle, the greater chance some MAD BOMBER will kill you or some dude will robust you for no reason or some horrible admin related fatality will occur. How you do this is up to you, but remember that one emag or 3 different Heads of Staff IDs will reduce the timer to 10 seconds until departure.

Keep in mind that the Shuttle Brig (area of the main shuttle marked with red flooring) is designed to transport prisoners to Centcom security. You will fail this objective if you are inside when the shuttle docks at Centcom.

Hijacking

FUCK. The Syndicate wants you to hijack the Escape Shuttle by escaping alone, or with NT loyalists in the shuttle brig. This is going to be so much more difficult. There are two basic ways to approach this problem. The first is to simply robust anyone who tries to board the shuttle. It seems easy at first, but once you're dealing with a tide of panicked crew trying to escape the singulo/changelings/malfunctioning AI the problem becomes exponentially more difficult. Your second option is to seal off the escape shuttle. Build walls in front of the windows, hack the shuttle airlocks to drop the bolts and find some way to make the rest of the shuttle inhospitable. A combination of both of these approaches can be sufficient 90% of the time. Don't forget that you can emag the shuttle's console (or swipe it with three different Heads of Staff IDs) to force the shuttle to launch after a quick 10 second countdown.

Critically, an emag used on the shuttle's communications console will force the shuttle to launch before the standard three minutes have elapsed.

If all goes well, give yourself a pat on the back, you did it! If not, try to figure out where it all went wrong and improve on that. Escaping alone can be nearly impossible depending on the crew and station's condition. Sometimes it was not meant to be, but regardless, the only way to keep better is to have fun and continue practicing!

Escaping by yourself or only other traitors will count as a successful hijack.

Sole Survivor

Just like hijack, but you need to escape alone! Don’t allow any syndicate members, traitor or otherwise, onboard the emergency shuttle with you.

Martyrdom

Exactly what the objective says. Die a glorious death. The key word is "glorious" - you can't just off yourself via suicide command, you disgrace to the Syndicate.

Assist

You won't get this objective through normal means as it requires admin intervention to get it. Adminhelp if you want it, you never know what they will say!

You need to ensure another antag completes their objectives. You will greentext if they do.

Destroy Machinery

You will get an objective with machinery listed and an area of the station. Ensure the original copy of the machinery is destroyed.

Minor Objectives

If you don't have hijack or martyr, you will have a chance of getting a minor objective to complete. These objectives will vary in difficulty, from something as small as taking a photo to something as big as deleting your security record.

Optional Objectives

Optional objectives are completed by default, so there is no need to go out of your way to do them. They provide you with fun ideas on what to do, such as kidnapping a crew member or creating fake crime scenes.

Your Tools

Alright, you know your objective! Time to accomplish that goal! The Syndicate treats you much better than Centcom. You have 20 Telecrystals built into your PDA, pen, headset or implant itching to be spent on traitory goods. To access your uplink from the PDA, go to the IC tab in the actual BYOND window and click on the Notes tab. Get the code from the Notes window and enter it into your PDA ringtone. If your uplink is on a pen, you'll find the degrees to twist the pen in the Notes tab. If your uplink is on your headset, you will find the frequency to tune to in order to access the headset. Implant uplink can be accessed at any time by pressing the action button at the top of your screen but will have only 16 TC. REMEMBER TO LOCK THE UPLINK! Check Syndicate Items, for a more detailed description on the goods. But don't go racing off to order those items ASAP, since people are more clustered in the beginning of rounds; the AI is probably wondering how it switches cameras, and the Captain is off huffing paint somewhere. Although it can be useful to get items early, holding off until you need the item also has merit, so 6 crystals don't get wasted on an emag when you find the captain's spare ID on that assistant you just killed.

Some tools are roundstart job specific, so you may want to change up your plans or try something fun when you get the chance. Fry and eat human corpses with a chef only body deep frier, or use the Modified Syringe Gun to make shitters deaf, dumb, and blind from 3 tiles away, or go for the ever popular 20+ TC stuffed toolbox approach. It's not always about the greentext (though that would certainly be nice to get), and your only limit is your creativity.

Another thing to note is that you can dispense raw telecrystals in groups of 1, 5 and 20. Raw telecrystals can be reinserted into an active uplink by just smacking it up against it. This is only useful for interacting with fellow traitors, and some items like Romerol can only be purchased with more than 20 telecrystals. You can either ask them nicely for telecrystals, or rob them while they have their uplink open. Should there be any admins around, you can exchange your raw telecrystals in hand for special things that can't be normally bought from an uplink (such as a bluespace locker) through prayer or through Ahelping them. Bear in mind there is no actual system in place for this, so trades are up to the discretion of whatever admin responds, so don't push your luck and try to trade 20 TC for an AA roundstart everytime.

Illicit Access

Gaining entry to areas above your clearance is an important skill. Sometimes you're looking to loot stuff. Sometimes security or another traitor is chasing you and you need to escape them. Sometimes the AI has gone mad and has locked you in a room filling with deadly neurotoxin. A collection of ways to break into places can be found here. A great, but not subtle tool to break into places is a Cryptographic Sequencer.

Variations

Blood Brothers

Blood Brothers is a variant of Traitor where you are bound to work with another random person on the station. Together you and some random traitor will work together to pull off any of the regular traitor objectives. It should be noted that you will not receive an uplink but instead will have:

  1. The recipes located in the makeshift weapon book
  2. A communication implant that allows direct communication with your blood brother
  3. A box filled with random syndicate items totalling 5TC
  4. Anything else the station can offer you

Blood Brother is a generally loathed variant as you'll usually be tasked with someone worse than you (they will generally be a burden, forcing you to carry them) or someone better than you (while this does mean you'll get your ass carried, this makes you the burden on the team dynamic). A common routine for Blood Brothers is to divide and conquer, having person A to objective A and person B do objective B. While having a lackey (or being one) is good in some circumstances, people generally don't like working with anyone outside of their favorite metabuddy and you will usually find yourself at each other's throats.

IF YOUR BLOOD BROTHER IS CATATONIC OR SSD ahelp the situation over to an admin (or don't and do a standard 0tc traitor run without the liability of a 2 hour assistant on your back) and they'll pair you with another BB pair, give you another BB, or consider making you a standalone traitor. Should the gods not heed your call (or are absent) resume your objectives and make sure to report it on the forums. If your catatonic/SSD BB is still alive, stuff them somewhere safe so that they won't get murdered and pray they live to see the end of the shift. Cloning won't accept your dead catatonic/SSD buddy's brain, so you're best bet for reviving a dead BB (besides defibbing them or doing numerous surgeries) is to transplant their brain into that of a healthy individual and drag them onto the emergency shuttle.

Internal Affairs Agent

Internal Affairs is another variant of traitor where you are given an objective to assassinate other Syndicate agents on the station. In this mode you are tasked to kill those who would be safe allies, so don't expect to make many friends because sooner or later they will be tasked with killing you and vice versa.

Internal Affairs Agents start the round with an objective to assassinate another agent and a 20TC uplink. If you successfully assassinate an agent, pick up the syndicate button they leave behind to be granted a random syndicate item. You're given a pin pointer in the top right of your screen that points to the location of your target. If your target has left the Z-level, is in a blue space locker or a blue space body bag, the tracker will appear with a black blinking question mark.

After every other agent is dead, you will be given the objective of martyrdom or hijack.

Tips

Get Creative

Alright, here's the situation. Let's say that your objectives are to kill someone, and to escape alive. Very simple, and they give you a lot of leeway in terms of the method of assassination. This means you could kill your target in a multitude of interesting and different ways! Here are a few examples:

  • Challenge your target to a duel.
  • Kill them in an incredibly silly way, or using unlikely objects.
  • Be like Jigsaw, and give them a challenge in which failure ends in death.
  • Frame them as a traitor, by putting traitor items in plain sight and switching your fingerprints for theirs in the security database.
  • You can subvert a borg to do your dirty work by using an Emag on it.

And many more! Please note that even if you have things like steal or escape alone objectives, you can still make things fun! Try holding a hostage, or buying the escape shuttle.

Use a Gimmick

Gimmicks can be the most fun you will have as an antagonist. Everything from tying your victims to a conveyor belt leading into the crusher and donning a Snidely Whiplash costume, to putting on a suit and tie, getting the admins to turn you into a skeleton, and building a disposals coaster into space (THE RIDE NEVER ENDS), to playing a murderer who hatches murder plots based on the victim's job (roboticist killed by a rogue cyborg, engineer thrown into the singularity, assistant toolboxed to death, etc.) can be fun for all parties involved.

Don't Murderbone

Murderboning is no fun. No matter how great it might seem gunning down everyone you see, you've got to remember something. Every human you see walking around is being controlled by a real person. They probably sat down after a hard day doing whatever it is they do and said to themselves “Huh, I want to play Space Station 13. It's a fun game!” You probably did the exact same thing before you logged on. For each little pixel character you shoot in this game of 2D spessmens, you are removing a person – just like you – from doing something they find enjoyable. This is what makes SS13 different from other games. If you die in an FPS, you pop back into existence no different from before you died. In SS13, unless the body is recovered you die permanently. So please, think of who you're killing before you go on a thermal/noslip/esword frenzy. Bear in mind that, while scummy and heavily discouraged, it is not against the rules to do such a thing when given proper objectives (i.e Hijack).

Ask The Admins

Despite popular opinion, the admins are not just here to ban people and press buttons. They're here to help make the round interesting – just like you! Therefore, if you want to do a gimmick that you cannot pull off with the tools available, feel free to ask the admins if you can buy something using leftover TC. Some ideas: CentCom announcements, identity changes, surgery tools, and building materials. Another thing – if your objectives are boring, easy, or you've already completed them, you can ask for more. It's a good alternative to simply killing everything in sight if you can't think of something to do.

ID tips
[Toggle List]
  • Having a spare ID always helps. Assistants are a dime a dozen, so it's not a bad idea to pin one on your shirt before you go about any dirty business so your real identity is not compromised. Throw some acid on your face and acquire a voice changer from your uplink, and no one will ever be able to discover who you are! That is, unless they take your DNA or fingerprint. If you don't have that, then just wear a mask and run around as Unknown, using your ID to access the doors that you need. Knowing the access each job has makes certain IDs more valuable than others.
  • There's an ID console near arrivals. If you get all-access, you can use this to make extra IDs to stash somewhere for when Security inevitably take your original ID.
  • An agent card, which can be used to make you untraceable by the AI, can also scan other IDs to copy their access, producing no special message for spectators: you can do it pretty much anywhere in full view of everyone. Have fun standing in the HoP's line by queuing up behind someone with large amounts of access and copying that access while the ID is placed on the table. As scanning two cards with an agent card gives the agent card the permissions of both, you can create a ghetto Captain's ID with a few low level IDs.
  • Have an agent ID and a voice-changer mask? Why not use it to make that guy you murdered blame somebody else!
  • Nobody checks the lockers in the locker room. Like, ever. And you need a fairly high level of ID to open lockers that are already registered to a specific person, so no worries about Joe Schmoe Assistant running in and stealing your hand teleporter.
  • You should hide off cameras when impersonating someone with a non-Agent ID, as the AI can track you.
Emag tips
[Toggle List]
  • Emagging welded/bolted doors causes them to close permanently. Use this to your advantage when 'reserving' an escape shuttle for yourself or when hiding a powersink.
  • Emag any Janiborg you can for their infinite lube reserves. They are also very effective thieves due to being able to pick up items with their trash bag. Emag one, tell it to bring you an AI Upload board and a module of your choice.
  • An emagged Medibot will start to inject anyone standing close to it with Toxin. Good to combo with an emagged Beepsky who will stun anyone next to it.
  • Emagging a comms console with captain access allows you to contact the syndicate. If the Gods are feeling kind you can use this to demand new objectives, and the Gods will often give you more telecrystals to help you achieve them.
  • If you have perma access try to slip a fully loaded toolbox in the perma bathroom or hide an emag inside of the back of the toilet to escape later when you inevitably get sent there.
  • If you're looking to hijack a shuttle and have spare space in your inventory, the fastest way to lock people out long enough to emag it without warning is to drop two reinforced tables in one airlock passage just before it docks after bolt-nolight-emagging the other airlock passage(s). Results may vary in places with more than 2-3 doors.
  • The surest way to escape alone is preventing anyone from boarding and emagging the console. Murderboning rarely works, and subverting the AI relies on the AI being competent - inconsistent and risky.
  • A strategy to win Cuban Pete, which can be played on a emagged arcade machine (note that if you die, you die for real):
      • If your magic is less than 5, charge.
      • If your health is less than Pete's, and your turtle value is less than 3, heal. Otherwise, attack.
      • Healing increases your turtle value by 1.
      • Attacking or charging your magic reduces your turtle value by 1.
      • Pete will attack you for more damage if your turtle value is greater than 3.
      • This technique gives you a win/loss ratio of about 1.7 on average. If your health is ever below 7, restart the game (screwdriver the arcade machine to restart).
      • Once you get Pete to low health, be aware that he can steal your magic. This can result in your death easily, such as if you heal at 5 magic using up 3, and then he steals 2, bringing you to 0 and gibbing you.
Bomb and IED tips
[Toggle List]
  • You can make an improvised explosive (IED) with basic materials (a soft drink can, igniter, a welding fuel tank, and some cable coil). It can gib dead people if exploded on their body, and the explosion doesn't expose blown tiles to space. It also destroys dead borg's bodies so you can get the MMI.
  • One very important note about IED's blast radius is that it can destroy an APC one tile away.
  • You can use an IED on a reinforced wall to skip most of the disassembling steps.
  • You only need maint access to make single tank bombs. Get a large air tank, any igniter assembly, a wrench and a welder. Remove the air in the air tank with an air pump, then add some plasma and oxygen from the incinerator room (may need some pipe re-wrenching depending on the map), add a hot gas, then attach the igniter assembly and weld a hole in the bomb.
  • You can destroy canisters by attacking them. Using a welder also lights the plasma from canisters on fire after it escapes. Very useful for traitoring. It's stupidly easy to escape alone just by releasing some plasma at escape a few minutes before the shuttle arrives. Fire will destroy canisters the same way but, instead of releasing plasma, it'll explode like a small bomb. So if you're trying to make an inferno, let the canister empty then light it, so you don't put your own fire out with vacuum.
  • Having a bomb in your backpack and setting it off while in a sleeper will blow up everything and the sleeper, but leave you perfectly unharmed.
  • Reverse pickpocketing doesn't produce a message for people you try it on (unless it fails). You can reverse pickpocket mini-bombs onto people. You can start the timer on the mini-bomb after you start shoving it into their pockets.
  • You can change the timer on C4 to be extremely high, it tops out at 60000 seconds (16.7 hours). Scare the ba-jesus out of someone by planting irremovable C4 that will probably never detonate, or hang a live explosive on your wall for a stylish conversation piece.
  • Light switches can be used to sabotage a room if you inject plasma into the light bulbs. Also works if there is a power outage.
  • If you inject a good power cell with plasma, it'll explode and create a hole in space when it is used for anything.
  • If so dip a cigar in plasma, the person who lights it will be gibbed (normal cigs won't do as much damage).
EMP tips
[Toggle List]
  • You can force the AI to call the shuttle by throwing an EMP grenade near it's core, which has a 15% chance to force a shuttle call. Or, if your objectives allow for it, release the tesla which usually makes a bee-line for the AI (if you haven't given it prior prompting via a beacon).
  • EMPing a cloning pod turns the clone into a slurry of blood and meat chunks. Useful if you've got access to ground iron and uranium and really need the guy getting cloned to not get cloned.
  • EMPs silence headsets and turns off suit sensors until they are manually turned back on.
  • EMPs knock out electricity in a wide area and messes up a lot of machinery in a lot of ways (one way being emag effects). It is a very versatile component to combat cyborgs or cybernetic enhancement users, such as Preternis, as it will automatically shut them down in a fight.
  • You can take out a combat mech with just an axe if you circle it well enough. Since they turn around slowly and must face you to fire, they can't do much. The only issue is getting close enough. If you intend to give someone else a combat mech, stick on a bunch of mech beacons and build yourself an exosuit computer. If they start to rampage, EMP all the beacons and ruin their mech.
Security tips
[Toggle List]
  • You can delete your fingerprints from the security records. It's better to re-forge them or swap them with someone else's however.
  • Simply changing your hairstyle can be enough to throw security off your trail if they only caught a glimpse of you. Especially if you have hair that really stands out.
  • Are you a traitorous sort lucky enough to have HoP-level access? CLOSE THE POSITIONS. An understaffed security team is a poor security team.
  • If you ever need a place to hide something while sec is on your tail, make a false wall into a secret spot and put the stuff into that area to get later when the heat has died down. All you need to worry about is someone with meson goggles finding your weapons or contraband.
  • On Boxstation, you can free people from perma without using space by going through the interrogation room and thus emagging the doors holding your kin.
  • Pulse rifles can break tables, racks, girders, and pretty much anything else besides airlocks, provided you aim at it with your mouse.
  • Fake mustaches conceal your identity just as well as a gas mask.
  • No security officer expects freedom implants.
  • Every PDA holds a pen by default. Remove it and store your sleepy pen/e-daggers there.
  • Latex gloves don't stop you from leaving your fingerprints everywhere. They leave partial prints.
  • You can uncuff yourself while in a disposal unit.
  • Grenades can be activated from a backpack with mousetraps. Great for when a snobby security officer ask you for a search.
  • Store dead bodies on the Toxins Test Site. Nobody will ever find them. Hopefully.
  • You can shoot a window with a laser (click the window), rather than through the window. Doing this is faster than almost every other method, comparable in speed to deconstruction.
  • Bullets pass through windows, but not grilles. Lasers and disablers pass through windows and grilles. Electrodes are blocked by both windows and grilles.
  • Sec Borgs are always stunned by flashes, but the amount of time they're stunned varies.
  • Targeting the eyes with a flashlight and attacking someone with it will cause their screen to flash white for a moment. This works on cyborgs as well, and can be used to blind and seriously inconvenience them if you don't have access to a flash.
  • The AI cannot examine anything except things it can see in its chamber. It can take pictures of you to see what's in your hand however.
Chameleon projector tips
[Toggle List]
  • The chameleon projector can be used to dodge shots, just run with it in your hand and spam it to have bolts go over you.
  • A hilariously effective use of the chameleon projector is something slippery, like the clown's PDA or a banana peel. WILD CLOWN MATERIALIZES.
  • You can't drag items that have people with cham projectors on, giving you a way to check an item without immediately sending the cloaker into a panic.
  • Floorbots won't try to collect people disguised as floor tiles or metal.
  • Pretending to be an item in space gives you perfect movement, but you'll still die of exposure if you're not prepared.
  • If you ghost, your catatonic body will remain cloaked.
  • You can cloak as things in the holodeck and use them elsewhere on the station, no one ever suspects the beachball.
  • You can wrench apart a table or rack and rebuild it under you and disguise for a more convincing ploy.
  • Cloaked people are immune to the mass driver.
  • Hiding as an item in a doorway will let the door close harmlessly on you, giving total concealment.
  • Buy an uplink implant. If you get brigged buy a projector and inspire the wild goose chase of the century as you hide there. If sec is being incompetent they'll probably assume there's a cult about due to the lack of evidence of any escape route besides a straight up teleport.
  • You can steal flashes from mounted flashers by using wirecutters. This will disable the flasher until a replacement flash is installed. One being located at HoP-Line and Sec checkpoints.
Other traitor gadgets tips
[Toggle List]
  • No-Slip shoes are the most cost effective thing you can possibly buy, and probably the most powerful thing you can purchase.
  • Energy Swords and circular saws can be used to make sawed-off shotguns. Energy Swords can also cut cakes, cut pizzas and light cigars.
  • The Suspicious Toolbox does fifteen damage instead of ten.
  • Spraying someone who's smoking a cigarette or cigar with welding fuel or alcohol will set them on fire. The same applies to lit welders. Especially awesome since, unlike other methods for setting someone on fire, spraying does not show in the chatbox and it can be done from quite a few tiles away, or with unexpected items like pepper spray. It works with an active E-sword too, as a poor antag found out.
  • Hardsuits can carry a Jetpack in their Suit Slot. This way you can carry it around without anyone seeing, but it still needs to be on your back to work.
  • Black gloves are fireproof. That means you can take whatever lights you want without getting burnt. They also half the damage you take from electric shocks.
  • When you buy the suspicious fedora for 3 TC, make sure to activate its hidden ability by using your action button or clicking on the sprite. This will change the sprite giving your hat blades and when thrown at someone will now inflict 40 brute damage! If you want your hat to return to its normal look, do the same actions stated above again.
  • The Suspicious Cards have sharp edges and can be thrown at people, causing some nasty bleeding. Another perk is that these cards are only classified as contraband and are one of the few items to fully bypass the Syndicate Weapons Law while still being very deadly.
  • The Energy Dagger, along with the Suspicious Fedora, both have enough throwing damage to open lockers and break reinforced glass alike! The Energy Dagger also has a 100% chance of embedding into whoever it is thrown at!
  • Energy Swords have a chance to deflect projectiles, but only when the user is facing the projectiles initial direction while having the energy sword activated.
  • While using the Reverse-Card, it is best not to immediately use the weapon you have gained with it, because the gadget will automatically teleport into the opponent's hand and work the same as it did for you.
  • Telecrystals can be crushed in hand to teleport 3 to 6 tiles in the direction you are facing, useful for getting in or out of places quickly and without traces.
Murder methods tips
[Toggle List]
  • Your murder objectives will specify the species of your target, use that to take advantage of their weaknesses for an easier kill.
  • The entirety of Disposals can easily be routed into space in certain maint areas, and you need only stun and drag people to a disposal bin to instantly kill them. Disposals can be a very potent weapon if used correctly, and there are plenty of other ways. You just need to find them.
  • If you grab someone and use them on a open toilet you can drown them via swirly, though it will take creativity. If it is closed, it slams the affected person into the toilet seat.
  • Putting a tracking beacon in space makes the hand teleporter an instantly lethal weapon instead of a convenience.
  • Lockers do not protect from space and atmosphere unless welded. So stun-locker-weld-space is a valid strategy.
  • Shoving a corpse into a locker, body bag, or buckling to a chair/roller bed then dragging that object about leaves no blood trail. Also having the light-step trait allows you to walk in blood without leaving a trail.
  • Spaced bodies can husk, but it's not terribly quick. Burned bodies husk much better.
  • Strapping a man to a chair while throwing floor tiles at him is a surprisingly quick death on his part.
  • Shooting syringes of black slime toxin will turn the person into a slime. Combine this with that one icy reagent or a docility potion and bam, you just murdered someone.
  • Suit Storage Units can hold any type of space suit, even hardsuits. You can hide bodies in them and nobody will ever think of checking there. You can even hack them to burn somebody to a crisp.
Bag and pocket mechanics
[Toggle List]
  • When you take something from your bag or put something in it, it creates a message that everyone around you gets. How far this message goes depends on the size of your item. If the item can't be placed into a box, then when you put it in your bag it'll show to everyone that can see you. If the item can be placed into a box, then when you put it in your bag it'll only show to people who are directly next to you. This also means that only the people next to you can see what you put into your box, as the box uses the same code as the bag. There are also a few exceptions, like the e-bow, that don't show any message at all.
  • You can strip someone's pockets without a message appearing if they don't move during it, otherwise they'll get a message that says their pockets are being touched.
  • After gaining a bag of holding from R&D, you can cut it in half with a Scalpel or Circular Saw. This allows you and someone else to carry one half each, effectively making you and whoever has the other half share an inventory, which is very effective for a pair of blood brothers.
Objective tips
[Toggle List]
  • Some objectives can be done by just asking crew nicely instead of murdering them all.
  • If your objective is to steal the nuke disk, steal the pinpointer as well. This allows you to track the exact location of the nuke disk no matter where it is.
  • You don't need to steal the blueprints located in the chief engineer's office to complete your objective. You can instead take a picture of it and it will count as successfully stealing it.
  • "Steal plasma" is the easiest objective; grab an emergency O2 tank or an air tank, stuff it in a public scrubber until it's empty. Go to Atmospherics, attach an air pump or a canister to a connector, send plasma to pure, set pure to ports, stuff the tank into the pump or can, set pressure to the max, open, wait, close (or turn off for a pump), remove, win/die because you used it for internals.
  • If tasked with stealing the medal of captaincy, you do not necessarily have to take one from the captain. There is an extra one in the captain's room located in the medal box on the table below where his gun case would be.
  • The secret documents can be located inside a file cabinet in a vault along with a nuclear core, and you only need a photo of the documents for the objective to count as complete. The syndicate lavaland base and some ruins also contain documents that can be used to fulfill this objective.
  • If tasked with stealing the captain's jetpack, a bag of holding can fully conceal it.
