Maintenance saw a overhaul, increasing in size and complexity.
 
==Current Situation==
Over the years, an admin/coder called Ikarrus more or less took the leading role in BoxStation's development. BoxStation continues to be the most popular map of SS13 across many servers.
 
 


==Development==
For a long time Boxstation stagnated in content, with very few people willing to dedicated themselves to improving Boxstation. Many people felt that Boxstation was due to be replaced due to this inactivity in the face of other popular stations. However from early 2014, an admin/coder called Ikarrus more or less took the leading role in BoxStation's development, updating and expanding maintenance and generally bringing the station up to code. Due to Ikarrus's development it spurred a large amount of people to suddenly start mapping for Boxstation.


Minor debate raged between Ikarrus and another mapper, Steelpoint, over the direction to develop the station, this debate primarily centred over the layout of maintenance.


As of late 2014, Ikarrus stopped regular updates to Boxstation leaving Steelpoint as the primary leading map developer of Boxstation. Which continues to this day.


Boxstation continues to be the most popular map of SS13 across many servers, and while people continue to champion for it to be retired, Boxstation is here to stay for the foreseeable future.
