BoxStation: Difference between revisions

'''BoxStation''' (formerly known as '''tgstation''') was first made public in the year 2011 by "The Old Coders" but if we were to credit one person with its creation, it's likely to be Errorage. The preceding map was the Goonstation's [http://wiki.ss13.co/Devstation Devstation/Ovary Station/Uterus Station], which was supposedly the origin why SS13 is described as a "nonsensical metal deathtrap".

Especially the Brig, due to the decision to merge Prison Station with the rest of the Brig. We had "Donut Brig" (above) but it was horrible as prisoners were able to circle the warden's office and evade his captors for an absurd length of time. It wasn't until around later that Ikarrus started contributing to the codebase and put this one together using Flazeo's design (below). After Ikarrus got fed up with how Security Department occupied such a disproportionate amount of station real estate, he went and implemented his own, more efficient design, which you'll recognize as the one we currently (summer 2014) use. The new Prison Wing was originally Flazeo's idea.

Over the years, Ikarrus more or less took the leading role in BoxStation's development and at this point, there probably isn't an area on station that wasn't designed or at least modified by him. BoxStation continues to be the most popular map of SS13 across many servers.
